This filing will replace Advice Letter 1795-W in its entirety. Purpose GSWC is seeking authorization from the California Public Utilities Commission ("Commission") to establish the Polyfluoroalkyl Substances Memorandum Account (PFASMA). The purpose of the PFASMA is to record incremental expenses and carrying costs of new facilities costs, that are not otherwise covered in GSWC's revenue requirement, to comply with the regulatory standards set by the State Water Resources Control Board ("state board" or "SWRCB"), to detect, monitor, report and remediate per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances ("PFAS") in drinking water. Background On August 23, 2019, the SWRCB announced' updated guidelines for local water agencies to follow in detecting and reporting the presence of perfluorooctanoic ("PFOA") and perfluorooctanesulfonic 1 State Water Board Media Release, August 23, 2019: ;tt.ps://www.waterboards.ca4 of/press room/press, releases/2019/prO6231.9 pfoa pfos guidelines news r.elaase.pdf Advice Letter No. 1795 -WA -2- December 5, 2019 acid ("PFOS") in drinking water. The SWRCB also announced it has begun the process of establishing regulatory standards for these chemicals. The updated state guidelines lower the current notification levels from 14 parts per trillion ("ppt") to 5.1 ppt for PFOA and from 13 ppt to 6.5 ppt for PFOS. Notification levels are a precautionary health -based measure for concentrations in drinking water that warrant notification and further monitoring and assessment. Public water systems are encouraged to test their water for contaminants with notification levels, and in some circumstances may be ordered to test. If the systems do test, they are required to report exceedances to their governing boards and the SWRCB and are urged to report this information to customers. In addition to the updated notification levels, the SWRCB has requested that the Office of California Environmental Health Hazard Assessment ("OEHHA") develop public health goals ("PHGs") for both PFOA and PFOS, the next step in the process of establishing regulatory standards, known as maximum contaminant levels (MCLS), in drinking water. Other chemicals in the broader group of PFAS may be considered later, either individually or grouped, as data permits. Unlike other states, California has not developed its own PHGs at this time. The SWRCB is currently conducting a statewide assessment to determine the scope of contamination by PFAS, including PFOA and PFOS, in water systems and groundwater. In the first phase, pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 116400, in March 2019 public water systems were ordered to sample (quarterly for one year) about 600 drinking water supply wells located near airports and landfills, where contamination is more likely, and near locations where PFAS was previously found. Within this phase, GSWC was mandated to test 19 of its approximately 235 wells. Following this initial phase, the assessment will likely focus on sampling water sources near industrial sites and at wastewater treatment facilities. As a result, GSWC anticipates additional testing requirements of its remaining wells. While the SWRCB continues to assess the scope of contamination based on initial data reporting for the statewide assessment, the response levels for PFOA and PFOS remain at 70 parts per trillion for the total combined concentration of both contaminants, consistent with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's health advisory level. The response levels were supposed to be provided in the fall, but is still pending with no firm date. On July 31, 2019, California Governor Gavin Newsom approved Assembly Bill No. 756 ("AB 756") which authorizes the SWRCB to order a public water system to monitor for PFAS more broadly. AB 756 will take effect on January 1, 2020. Under AB 756, "(a)ll monitoring results shall be submitted to the state board electronically as directed by the state board in its order."' "If any monitoring undertaken pursuant to an order... results in a confinned detection, a community water system or a nontransient noncommunity water system shall report that detection in the water system's annual consumer confidence report. ,3 "(F)or perfluoroalkyl substances and polyfluoroalkyl substances with notification levels, a AB 756, Section 1(b) 3 AB 756, Section 1(c)(1) Advice Letter No. 1795 -WA -3- December 5, 2019 community water system or a nontransient noncommunity water system shall report the detection if the level exceeds the notification level as required by Section 116455."4 "For perfluoroalkyl substances and polyfluoroalkyl substances with response levels where detected levels of a substance exceed the response level, a community water system or nontransient noncommunity public water system shall take a water source where detected levels exceed the response level out of use or provide public notification within 30 days of the confirmed detection." 5 Memorandum Account Justification Public water systems have been ordered by the SWRCB to detect, monitor and report PFOA and PFOS. GSWC has begun to, and anticipates incurring substantial costs in order to comply. The substantial costs GSWC expects to incur include, but are not limited to, the following: • Laboratory testing and monitoring — due to the specialized nature of the analyses (new and developing methods, low detection limits and sensitivity for sample contamination) the cost for each analysis is much greater than routine monitoring tests. • Customer/public notifications Chemical and operating costs for treatment Special studies related to treatment options. GSWC anticipates that the state will require an additional phase of testing that will expand the SWRCB's monitoring and reporting scope of their original mandate. GSWC expects to incur between $300,000 - $400,000 for testing of its remaining approximately 200 wells companywide, excluding estimated costs for resampling. Testing is estimated to be performed on a quarterly basis for one annual period consistent with the SWRCB's original mandate. This estimated cost excludes any costs to be incurred to address follow-up or confirmation sampling results, including notification and treatment costs, which GSWC is unable to estimate at this time. The cost of treatment can vary greatly depending on site-specific factors, such as capacity and treatment technology, and is difficult to estimate. GSWC will record the carrying costs at its adopted rate of return for all incremental plant investment in the PFASMA. Incremental plant investment GSWC expects to make include, but are not limited to, the following: • Treatment facilities to remove PFAS including potential Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) and/or Ion Exchange treatment processes. In the event that GSWC loses a well source due to PFAS and makes incremental plant investment such as addition and/or modification of facilities (wells, treatment plants, etc.), GSWC will demonstrate that the incremental plant investment is necessary to (1) meet the water system's demand, and (2) provide the most cost-effective water supply. 4 AB 756, Section 1(c)(2) s AB 756, Section 1(c)(3) Advice Letter No. 1795 -WA 4- December 5, 2019 The PFASMA will track only incremental costs, i.e., costs not otherwise covered in GSWC's authorized revenue requirement, by ratemaking area. The PFASMA will be amortized at the ratemaking area level. Request To Establish A Memorandum Account In accordance with the Commission's Standard Practice U -27-W, establishing a memorandum account is conditional and in consideration with the following five criteria which have been met by GSWC: a. The expense is caused by an event of an exceptional nature that is not under the utility's control. The costs tracked in the PFASMA will be incurred due to orders issued by the SWRCB to public water systems to monitor PFAS, which is out of GSWC's control. b. The expense cannot have been reasonably foreseen in the utility's last general rate case and will occur before the utility's next scheduled rate case. GSWC's last GRC was filed in July 2017. Monitoring Orders, issued by the SWRCB in March 2019, directed monitoring to begin during the second quarter of 2019. The Governor's approval of AB 756 occurred on July 31, 2019. GSWC's next GRC will be filed in July 2020. GSWC has begun to and anticipates to incur a substantial increase in costs in order to comply with this new law and any regulatory standards set by the SWRCB. On August 21, 2019, GSWC notified the Commission that recent testing required by the SWRCB detected levels at one of GSWC's seven wells that supply the Norwalk water system that exceeded the state's prior established Notification Level of 13 ppt for PFOS. The SWRCB requires public water systems to report exceedances to their governing bodies and the SWRCB and urges them to report this information to customers.6 Consistent with the SWRCB's requirements and recommendations, GSWC is incurring costs in order to provide timely notifications to governing bodies and customers and proactively remedy the issue. Additionally, PFOS was detected in wells with existing GAC treatment but treatment and monitoring costs associated with the treatment process will increase. c. The expense is of a substantial nature such that the amount of money involved is worth the effort of processing a memo account. To date, GSWC has already incurred testing and noticing costs associated with the compliance requirements resulting from the monitoring orders and AB 756. GSWC estimates incremental costs for testing, monitoring, notifying customers and remediation due to the new requirements. The costs will be substantial. Additional monitoring and compliance requirements remain in flux but are 6 State Water Board Media Release, August 23, 2019: kittps:,//www.watei:b(,,ai-ds.ca.�,-,�,,-,,,/pi:ess room/preys releases/2019/prH231.9 pfca pfcs guidelines news r.elaase.pdf Advice Letter No. 1795 -WA -5- December 5, 2019 expected to increase substantially over the next year, and therefore all of the costs to comply with AB 756 and future mandates from the SWRCB are uncertain. Additionally, the treatment costs associated with remedying issues associated with potential positive detections are not estimable at this time. However, the costs will not be inconsequential. Finally, the existence of the costs is not speculative. GSWC anticipates that the state will require an additional phase of testing that will expand the SWRCB's monitoring and reporting scope of their original mandate. GSWC expects to incur between $300,000 - $400,000 for testing of its remaining approximately 200 wells companywide, excluding estimated costs for resampling. Testing is estimated to be performed on a quarterly basis for one annual period consistent with the SWRCB's original mandate. This estimated cost excludes any costs to be incurred to address follow-up or confirmation sampling results, including notification and treatment costs, which GSWC is unable to estimate at this time. The cost of treatment can vary greatly depending on site-specific factors, such as capacity and treatment technology, and is difficult to estimate. d. The ratepayers will benefit by the memo account treatment. Exposure to PFOA and PFOS can cause adverse health effects, including harmful effects to a developing fetus or infant, immune system and liver effects, and cancer. While consumer products are a large source of exposure to these chemicals for most people, drinking water has become an increasing concern due to the persistence and tendency of these chemicals to accumulate in groundwater. 7 GSWC customers will benefit from the establishment of this Memorandum Account because it will allow continual testing, monitoring and timely notification to customers and remediation when detected levels of PFAS exceed the state's established notification and response levels. In the event that GSWC loses a well source due to PFAS and makes incremental plant investment such as addition and/or modification of facilities (wells, treatment plants, etc.), GSWC will demonstrate that the incremental plant investment is necessary to (1) meet the water system's demand, and (2) provide the most cost-effective water supply. The expenses and capital carrying costs tracked in the PFASMA will go through a prudency review by the Commission's Water Division and the Public Advocates Office before recovery is granted to make sure the company did not spend money without discretion. Memorandum Account Treatment GSWC is aware that a memorandum account is not a guarantee of eventual recovery of expenses, nor is it carried as a regular account under the uniform system of accounts for water utilities. It is carried "off the books" as a memorandum account. Further, it is also known that the Commission's policy on memorandum account treatment has always been that the burden of proof of the Id. Advice Letter No. 1795 -WA -6- December 5, 2019 reasonableness of costs charged to the account is the responsibility of the utility requesting reimbursement of such costs. Effective Date This advice letter is submitted with a Tier 2 designation. GSWC is requesting this filing become effective October 31, 2019. Customer Notice This advice letter requests the establishment of a memorandum account only, there are no rate changes being requested, therefore, a customer notice is not required.
