EXHIBIT A- STUDY PROGRAM ACTIVITIES
CTTY OF ST. PAUL
The study program activities proposed by the city of St. Paul includes the installation of four
temporary flow meters within portions of the City's sanitary sewer system which are tributary to
sanitary sewer regulators. The City currently has 35 active regulators that have not been
eliminated through the CSO program. The Study will utilize the temporary flow meters to
identify and help locate sources of rain derived inflow. Once these sources can be identified,
follow-up projects can be developed. Activities within the study area include:
1. Installation of up to four temporary flow meters within various sanitary sewer regulator
service azeas within the City.
2. Collection of flow data at various sites for varying duration's. The intent of the temporary
meters is to capture flow information during storm events and isolate sources of inflow.

personal property free and clear of any liens, encumbrances, or other claims. The Lendee must
maintain property records that include, at a minimum, a description of the property, a serial or
other identification number, the acquisition date and cost, and the location, use, and condition of
the property. In the final report required by paragraph 5.01, the Lendee will include a list of all
personal property acquired with loan and matching funds which was not expended in performance
of the Loan Project. At the end of the Project Activity Period, the Lendee agrees to transfer title
to all personal properiy acquired in whole or in part with loan funds and not expended in the
course of the Loan Project to the Council, at the Council's option and at no charge. The Council
reserves the right to direct appropriate disposition of all personal property, acquired in whole or in
part with loan funds, which has not been expended in performance of the Loan Project.
During the Project Activity Period, the Lendee beazs the risk of loss of, damage to, or
destruction of any personal property acquired with loan or matching funds. No such loss,
damage, or destruction will relieve the Lendee of its obligations under this agreement. The
Lendee agrees to maintain personal property acquired with loan or matching funds in good
operating order. If, during the Project Activity Period, any project personal property is not used
in perfornung the project, whether by planned withdrawal, misuse, or casualty loss, the Lendee

Loan Manager, the Lendee will remit to the Councii a proportional amount of the fair market
value of the item(s), if any, deternuned on the basis of the proportion of Council loan funds used
to acquire the item(s).
7.11 Effect of Project Closeout The I,endee agrees that project closeout does not
invalidate continuing obligations imposed on the Lendee by this agreement. Project closeout does
not alter the Council's authority to disallow costs and recover funds on the basis of a later audit or
other review, and does not alter the Lendee's obligation to retum any funds due to the Council as
a result of later refunds, corrections, or other transactions.

EXHIBIT D - CERTIFICATION PROCESS
PIPELINE REPAII2S
PIPELINES
The first and fifth year certification shall be based on findings resulting from an inspection of
100% of the sanitary sewer pipeline footage rehabilitated under the Loan Project. The second,
third and forth year certification shall be based on findings resulting from an inspection of 33% of
all sanitary sewer pipeline segments rehabilitated under the L,oan Project. If the Loan Project
involves the rehabilitation of a single pipeline segment, then 100% of said segment shall be
inspected in the second, third and fourth year certification.
On the third and fi8h anniversary dates, along with said certification, Lendee shall also provide
the Council with physical documentation supporting the certification in the form of visual
inspection records of 100% of all pipeline segments requiring rehabilitation during the initial
project.
Prior to the community performing the certification inspections, the Council will be notified so
that a representative from the Council has the opporiunity to be present during the inspections.
All facilities to be inspected for certification shall be identified prior to the inspections and a list of
said facilities along with a map showing their locations shall be sent to the Council for review and
comment. Certification inspections shall be performed during periods when UI sources would
typically be discharged into the system.
In the event that any pipeline segment is found to be allowing excessive amounts of I/I into the
sanitary system during the certification inspec[ions, and if that pipeline segment undergoes further
rehabilitation to correct the situation, that segment shall be added to, and considered in addition
to the list of pipeline segments for inspection for the following year's certification.

EXHIBIT A- STUDY PROGRAM ACTIVITIES
CTTY OF ST. PAUL
The study program activities proposed by the city of St. Paul includes the installation of four
temporary flow meters within portions of the City's sanitary sewer system which are tributary to
sanitary sewer regulators. The City currently has 35 active regulators that have not been
eliminated through the CSO program. The Study will utilize the temporary flow meters to
identify and help locate sources of rain derived inflow. Once these sources can be identified,
follow-up projects can be developed. Activities within the study area include:
1. Installation of up to four temporary flow meters within various sanitary sewer regulator
service azeas within the City.
2. Collection of flow data at various sites for varying duration's. The intent of the temporary
meters is to capture flow information during storm events and isolate sources of inflow.
3. �sual inspections of the sanitary sewer system to help identi£y the location of inflow into the
system. The systematic flow monitoring of the regulator service azeas should provide focus
areas in which City staff personnel can conduct in-field inspections to identify the specific
source of the inflow.
4. Ugon completion of all data gathering and review of the information, a summary report will be
prepared. Summary report is to include recommendations for prioritized UI sewer
rehabilitation work.
Study activities will be conducted using City Staff Personnel.

EXHIBIT D - CERTIFICATION PROCESS
PIPELINE REPAII2S
PIPELINES
The first and fifth year certification shall be based on findings resulting from an inspection of
100% of the sanitary sewer pipeline footage rehabilitated under the Loan Project. The second,
third and forth year certification shall be based on findings resulting from an inspection of 33% of
all sanitary sewer pipeline segments rehabilitated under the L,oan Project. If the Loan Project
involves the rehabilitation of a single pipeline segment, then 100% of said segment shall be
inspected in the second, third and fourth year certification.
On the third and fi8h anniversary dates, along with said certification, Lendee shall also provide
the Council with physical documentation supporting the certification in the form of visual
inspection records of 100% of all pipeline segments requiring rehabilitation during the initial
project.
Prior to the community performing the certification inspections, the Council will be notified so
that a representative from the Council has the opporiunity to be present during the inspections.
All facilities to be inspected for certification shall be identified prior to the inspections and a list of
said facilities along with a map showing their locations shall be sent to the Council for review and
comment. Certification inspections shall be performed during periods when UI sources would
typically be discharged into the system.
In the event that any pipeline segment is found to be allowing excessive amounts of I/I into the
sanitary system during the certification inspec[ions, and if that pipeline segment undergoes further
rehabilitation to correct the situation, that segment shall be added to, and considered in addition
to the list of pipeline segments for inspection for the following year's certification.

EXHIBIT A- STUDY PROGRAM ACTIVITIES
CTTY OF ST. PAUL
The study program activities proposed by the city of St. Paul includes the installation of four
temporary flow meters within portions of the City's sanitary sewer system which are tributary to
sanitary sewer regulators. The City currently has 35 active regulators that have not been
eliminated through the CSO program. The Study will utilize the temporary flow meters to
identify and help locate sources of rain derived inflow. Once these sources can be identified,
follow-up projects can be developed. Activities within the study area include:
1. Installation of up to four temporary flow meters within various sanitary sewer regulator
service azeas within the City.
2. Collection of flow data at various sites for varying duration's. The intent of the temporary
meters is to capture flow information during storm events and isolate sources of inflow.
3. �sual inspections of the sanitary sewer system to help identi£y the location of inflow into the
system. The systematic flow monitoring of the regulator service azeas should provide focus
areas in which City staff personnel can conduct in-field inspections to identify the specific
source of the inflow.
4. Ugon completion of all data gathering and review of the information, a summary report will be
prepared. Summary report is to include recommendations for prioritized UI sewer
rehabilitation work.
Study activities will be conducted using City Staff Personnel.

EXHIBIT D - CERTIFICATION PROCESS
PIPELINE REPAII2S
PIPELINES
The first and fifth year certification shall be based on findings resulting from an inspection of
100% of the sanitary sewer pipeline footage rehabilitated under the Loan Project. The second,
third and forth year certification shall be based on findings resulting from an inspection of 33% of
all sanitary sewer pipeline segments rehabilitated under the L,oan Project. If the Loan Project
involves the rehabilitation of a single pipeline segment, then 100% of said segment shall be
inspected in the second, third and fourth year certification.
On the third and fi8h anniversary dates, along with said certification, Lendee shall also provide
the Council with physical documentation supporting the certification in the form of visual
inspection records of 100% of all pipeline segments requiring rehabilitation during the initial
project.
Prior to the community performing the certification inspections, the Council will be notified so
that a representative from the Council has the opporiunity to be present during the inspections.
All facilities to be inspected for certification shall be identified prior to the inspections and a list of
said facilities along with a map showing their locations shall be sent to the Council for review and
comment. Certification inspections shall be performed during periods when UI sources would
typically be discharged into the system.
In the event that any pipeline segment is found to be allowing excessive amounts of I/I into the
sanitary system during the certification inspec[ions, and if that pipeline segment undergoes further
rehabilitation to correct the situation, that segment shall be added to, and considered in addition
to the list of pipeline segments for inspection for the following year's certification.
