HOW TO USE THIS BUDGET DOCUMENT
The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District's Annual Budget is comprised of three separate documents: The Annual Budget, the Budget
Supplement (Capital Improvement and Replacement Program budget), and the Strategic Business and Operating Plan. This budget
document is designed to communicate to the public concise and readable information about District policies, financial structure, operations
and its organizational framework. It displays the District's goals, strategies and budget for the 2024 Fiscal Year (July 1, 2023 to June 30,
2024) and analyzes the District's revenues and expenditures. Throughout this book, rounding within reports may cause sub -totals or totals
to appear off by a few dollars in either direction.
The document is broken down into the following sections:
Introduction: The introductory section contains the How to Use this Document, the District Organizational Chart with a listing
of appointed Board members and key personnel followed by a brief history of Greater St. Louis and the District, services
provided by the District, significant demographic information, and the District Watershed map.
Budget Message: The Executive Director's Budget Message provides an outline of the major assumptions relating to the
annual budget, a general indication of the status of the District's finances and service levels, highlights principal issues facing
the District, explains major priorities from prior year to current budget year, and short and long-term goals and other significant
information.
Budget Summary: This section includes Budget & Financial Policies, a recap of the District's Strategic Planning Process,
Vision Statement, Mission, Values, Goals, and Strategies. A Gantt chart that lists each department's objectives as they relate
to the District's overall Strategic Business and Operating Plan and performance against prior year's objectives is also included.
Each department's objectives coincide with MSD's goals and strategies. As each department works toward achieving their
objectives, it will support the District in its mission to protect the public's health, safety and water environment by responsibly
providing wastewater and stormwater management. The Budget Summary section presents the budgeted revenues and
expenditures of the District along with Budget Policies and Procedures, Budget Calendar, and Allocated Positions. This section
would describe major changes in service levels, fees, and/or taxes or state if there are no major difference, source of funding,
debt authorization and ratio. Also, included is the comparison of Fund Basis verse GAAP Basis Statement of Operations.
Capital Improvement & Replacement Program Summary: This section provides an overview of the upcoming and
continued capital projects. These projects are funded from a variety of sources, including user charges, fund balance reserves,
taxes, State Revolving Fund (SRF) and revenue bonds. In addition, a multi -decade CIRP needs table and a proposed five-year
timeline is presented. A Capital Improvement and Replacement Program (CIRP) Budget Supplement is available on MSD
ProjectClear.org as an appendix under the Budget section. The CIRP Budget Supplement provides detailed descriptions and
locations of the sewer projects planned for Fiscal Year 2024.
6
General Fund: The General Fund section begins with revenue trends, an overview and comparison of the fund, followed by
sections for individual departmental expenses. Each department's section includes their mission, recent accomplishments,
department objectives, budget and staffing. Following the General Fund department expense sections, the document is broken
down into other fund groups.
Revenue Funds: All user charge revenue is recorded in the Wastewater Revenue Fund. This fund represents actual, budgeted
and projected wastewater user charge revenue with projected service levels. A portion of the revenue is allocated to the General
Fund for daily operating and maintenance costs and a portion to the Debt Service Funds to retire outstanding revenue bonds
issued for capital improvements. The balance of the revenue is transferred to the Sanitary Replacement Fund, the General
Insurance Fund, the Water Backup Fund and the Emergency Fund. Stormwater user charges, previously reported in this
section, have been discontinued starting with Fiscal Year 2017.
Construction Funds: This section provides actual, budgeted and projected revenues, capital improvement expenditures and
fund balances including a detailed listing of planned projects and costs.
Stormwater Funds: These funds were established to account for ad valorem taxes. The Stormwater Regulatory Fund,
Districtwide Stormwater Fund and the Stormwater Operations and Maintenance Funds are reported in this section and receive,
or at one time received, property tax revenues. These are primarily stormwater dedicated funds for projects and stormwater
operations and maintenance.
Operations, Maintenance, and Construction Improvement (OMCI) Funds: These funds were established to account
for ad valorem taxes, which are their primary source of revenue. This revenue is restricted for stormwater operations and
maintenance and related capital improvement projects within the individual taxing district, except for the Bonfils and Meramec
subdistricts, which are dedicated to wastewater projects.
Debt Service Funds: This group of funds presents actual, budgeted and projected debt service obligations for revenue bonds
issued by the District.
Special Funds: This section details actual, budgeted, and projected revenues, expenditures and fund balances of the various
special funds such as the Water Back-up Insurance Fund and the Emergency Funds.
Ordinances: The last few sections contain the text of the ordinances concerning the revenues and expenditures, taxes and
user charges covered in this document.
Glossary: A list of the terminology and acronyms used in this document that is either technical in nature or unique to the
Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District. Each term is given a short description that defines it within the context it is used.

St. Louis Metropolitan Area
The City of St. Louis is an independent city, meaning it is not part of a
county, founded in 1766, located on the eastern border of Missouri and
covers an area of approximately 62 square miles.
Before Europeans moved west, the St. Louis area was the center of the
Native American Mississippian culture. European exploration began in
1673; five years later the area was claimed as part of French Louisiana.
In 1764 control of the area was assumed by the Spanish as part of the
Viceroyalty of New Spain. During the American Revolution, the Battle of
St. Louis was waged by the British using Native American forces.
In 1800 St. Louis was transferred to the Republic of France. In 1803, St.
Louis was sold by France to the U.S. as part of the Louisiana Purchase.
Steamboats arrived in St. Louis in 1818, improving connections to New
Orleans and eastern markets. Missouri became a state in 1821 with St.
Louis continuing to grow due to its port connections.
In 1904 St. Louis hosted the first Olympics held outside of Europe and
the World's Fair, Louisiana Purchase Exhibition. Today's Forest Park,
which contains the St. Louis Zoo, St. Louis Art Museum and Missouri
History Museum, was built as part of the Fair.
St. Louis expanded in the early 20th century with the peak population in
1950. Suburbanization from the 50's through the 90's reduced the City's
population drastically. Revitalization efforts began in the 1980's and
resulted in St. Louis receiving the World Leadership Award for urban
renewal in 2006.
Today's City of St. Louis has a population of 301,578. According to the
2020 U.S. Census estimates; 43.9% is White, 45.7% is Black or African
American, 4.1% is Hispanic, 3.4% is Asian, 0.3% is American
Indian/Alaska Native and 3.1% report two or more races.
St. Louis County is comprised of 88 municipalities with some
unincorporated areas, encompassing 508 square miles. The population
estimate as of 2020 was 1,004,125 with a median age of 40.4 years. As
of the 2020 Census data estimates, the racial makeup of the County is
65.3% White, 25.0% Black or African American, 4.7% Asian, 3.0%
Hispanic, 0.2% American Indian/Alaska Native and 2.2% from two or
more races.
The County was organized in 1812 with the City of St. Louis voting to
become independent in 1877. At the time there were 350,000 residents 1
in the City and 30,000 in the County. The City residents wanted to be,
"rid of county taxes and state influence over county government." In -
1970 the population of the County was 951,353 and the City's population
was 750,026. In the 2020 Census both the City and the County
experienced a reduction in population.
The combined City and County is known as Greater St. Louis and is the
20th largest metropolitan area in the U.S. The average annual
temperature is 55 degrees Fahrenheit with an average precipitation of
43 inches per year. The City of St. Louis is also known as the Gateway
to the West with the iconic St. Louis Arch rising 630 feet above
downtown with the city at 465 feet above sea level.

Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District
The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District was created in 1954 to provide a metropolitan -wide sewer system and drainage
facility to serve the City of St. Louis and most of the more heavily populated areas of St. Louis County. Before MSD's creation,
the City of St. Louis, various municipalities, and private sewer companies provided sewer service that primarily included only
collecting and transporting sewage from small geographic areas to nearby rivers and streams with little or no treatment. Most
of the municipalities or private sewer companies serving the area did not have the jurisdictional authority or financial resources
needed to eliminate health hazards from untreated sewage.
When the District began operations, it took over the publicly owned wastewater and stormwater drainage facilities within its
jurisdiction and began the construction of an extensive system of collector and interceptor sewers and treatment facilities. In
1977, voters approved the District's annexation of a 270 square mile area of the lower Missouri River and lower Meramec
River watersheds. The District purchased the Fee Fee Trunk Sewer Company and the Missouri Bottoms Sewer Company in
1978. MSD has since annexed other property and acquired other investor -owned or municipally operated systems.
The District's service area now encompasses 520 square miles, including all 66 square miles of the City of St. Louis and 454
square miles of St. Louis County.
MSD is organized pursuant to Article VI, Section 30 of the Missouri State Constitution that empowers the people of St. Louis
County and the City of St. Louis "to establish a metropolitan district for functional administration of services common to the
area". MSD is the only district established pursuant to that section of the Missouri State Constitution.
The Proposed Plan of the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District (the Plan), approved by the voters in 1954 and amended in
2000, 2012 and 2021, established the District. The Plan describes the District as "a body corporate, a municipal corporation
and a political subdivision of the state". As a political subdivision of the state, MSD is comparable to a county or city, such as
the City of St. Louis or St. Louis County, only with powers and responsibilities limited to wastewater collection and treatment
and stormwater management.

Board of Trustees

Dear Trustees:
The mission of the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District (MSD) is to protect the public's health and safety, and the region's water
environment, by responsibly providing wastewater and stormwater management. In fulfilling our mission, we focus on delivering sound
fiscal management and fostering a business -focused culture throughout the organization.
As MSD continues to make progress on the multi -decade Consent Decree in fiscal year 2024 (FY24), we will remain focused on several
key areas of overall operations, while being fiscally responsive to the needs of the St. Louis region:
STRATEGIC BUSINESS AND OPERATING PLAN — MSD's management is committed to running this utility like a business. A key
aspect of this effort is MSD's Strategic Business and Operating Plan (SBOP). The FY24 SBOP is easily understood, the goals and
resulting strategies are actionable, and the impact of the strategies is measurable. It is a business -focused blueprint for serving our
customers now and into the future. It is a plan that puts the customers and the St. Louis community first. The SBOP goals are clear:
• Deliver consistent, high -quality customer service,
• Comply with all legal and regulatory requirements and schedules,
• Minimize customer rate increases; and
• Be accountable to the St. Louis community.
The FY24 SBOP continues a philosophy that intimately links budgetary expenditures and strategic goals. Under this philosophy, the
goals and strategies of the SBOP drive budgetary expenditures and succinctly support the SBOP' s success. Further, the budgetary
expenditures for the SBOP are business focused and ultimately serve the ratepayer. These goals build on the public input and feedback
that the District has received.

BUDGET DEVELOPMENT — Each department prepares a base budget that covers funding for its day-to-day operations, and an
incremental budget for strategic activities that are to be implemented throughout the budget year. A detailed budget review process
ensures an in-depth review of all budgetary requests. If fiscal constraints require reduced funding, the costs of strategic objectives are
identified so that proper decisions can be made.
BUDGET SUMMARY — As the Executive Director of MSD, I affirm that rates and charges as currently implemented will generate
sufficient revenues to meet all expenditures as proposed in the FY24 budget, providing adequate operating liquidity as directed in
MSD's Debt Management Policy. Furthermore, current rates and charges are adequate to ensure MSD's compliance with all
obligations as provided in the Master Bond Ordinance, adopted by the Trustees on April 22, 2004.
The proposed FY24 operating budget includes $250.2 million for day-to-day operations, reflecting a $14.6 million or 6.2%
increase over the FY23 budget. The total District budget for FY24 is $956.3 million, which includes the operating budget, Capital
Improvement and Replacement Program (CIRP), and debt service. The proposed budget includes no increase in full-time employees
(FTE).
Proposed expenditures for the FY24 are summarized as follows:
Operating $250.2 million
CIRP $566.7 million
Debt Service $139.4 million
TOTAL EXPENSE BUDGET $956.3 million
Versus costs presented to the FY21 — FY24 Rate Commission, the operating budget for FY24 is projected to be 3.9% more than
originally planned; and the CIRP budget for FY24 is projected to be 17.9% higher than originally planned.
The proposed FY24 budget for wastewater user charges is approximately $470.1 million, which is $34.1 million or 6.8% less than the
amount projected from the rates recommended by the FY21 — FY24 Rate Commission and approved by the MSD Board of Trustees.
Relative to the Rate Proposal projections, the debt service expenses will be lower by $40.0 million, or 22.4%, primarily due to the
favorable debt issuance environment that resulted in better financing terms than expected on recent issuances and new refunding
opportunities.

KEY BUDGET FACTORS AND UPDATES
MSD PROJECT CLEAR®— In 2007, the State of Missouri and the United States Environmental Protection Agency filed a lawsuit
against MSD regarding overflows. The Missouri Coalition for the Environment later joined the lawsuit as an intervener.
Throughout MSD's service area, there are hundreds of points where a combination of rainwater and wastewater discharges into local
waterways from the sewer system during moderate to heavy rainstorms. Sewer overflow points act as relief valves when too much
rainwater enters the sewer system, and without them, communities could experience thousands of basement backups and/or extensive
street flooding.
In April 2012, the United States Federal Court approved an agreement known as a Consent Decree bringing the lawsuit to a close.
This was amended by the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri on June 22, 2018. The agreement calls for
$7.2 billion (in 2023 dollars) in improvements to the wastewater system over the next two decades. The FY24 capital budget continues
MSD's ongoing execution of the Consent Decree.
Knowing that robust and simplified communications would be critical to the success of the Consent Decree, MSD launched MSD
Project Clear (MSDPC). MSDPC covers all Consent Decree activities and communications with stakeholders. Therefore, MSDPC is
a multi -billion -dollar, multi -decade initiative to plan, design, and build system -wide improvements to address water quality and alleviate
many wastewater concerns in the St. Louis region. MSDPC focuses on system -wide improvements to get the rain out, repair and
maintain, and build system improvements. Projects range in scale from massive underground tunnels that carry the volume of
stormwater needed in a growing region, to the disconnection of residential downspouts from the sanitary sewer lines, and rainscaping
improvements to manage stormwater runoff.
MSD Project Clear Updates — During calendar year 2022 MSD installed 51.7 miles of new sewers and rehabilitated. To date over
the life of the consent decree, MSD has repaired, rehabilitated and/or replaced 1,313 miles of sewer.
MSD has removed 17 SSOs (sanitary sewage overflow or mixed with stormwater, to a stream) in 2022, and has a total of 40
remaining as of December 31, 2022. Since 2014, MSD has eliminated 109 constructed SSOs.
Total appropriations for consent decree compliance in FY22 was approximate $309 million. Since 2012 MSD has spent $2.4 billion on
consent decree compliance.
A challenge that MSDPC is now dealing with is escalating costs pertaining to our CIRP. Recently, bids in some categories of projects
have come in significantly above estimates. Funding some of these large projects like the Fluidized Bed Incinerators, necessitated by
EPA regulations, estimated at $575 million with a low bid received of $900 million is an example.
16
RAINSCAPING / GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE — As part of the amendment of the Consent Decree, MSD also agreed to invest at least
$20 million in green infrastructure in the Lemay Service Area/River Des Peres Watershed, reducing untreated overflow volume to the
River Des Peres. This is in addition to the existing $100 million program within the Bissell Point watershed, which is predominantly
served by the combined sewer system (sewers that collect rainwater and wastewater).
The rainscaping program includes:
• Up to $13.5 million ($1.5 million was spent in the pilot phase) is being used to demolish hundreds of abandoned, structurally
condemned buildings that present a threat to public health and safety in the City of St. Louis. These demolitions reduce
impervious surface area, which lessens the burden placed on the combined sewer system during moderate to heavy rainstorms.
In FY22, approximately $1.2 million was spent. As of January 2023, nearly $602 thousand has been spent.
• The Large -Scale Rainscaping Program continues to build partnerships with municipalities, schools, community development
organizations, private developers, and others. These partnerships help identify joint opportunities to incorporate rainscaping
into ongoing development and other activities in the Bissell Point watershed. The program plans to spend $8,000,000 in FY23
and the same amount in FY24.
• The Small Grants Rainscaping Program encourages homeowners, neighborhood groups, and other organizations to apply for
grants, in the Mississippi and River Des Peres Watershed, and up to $3,000 in the remainder of the MSD service area. These
grants are designed to help MSD customers utilize raingardens, bioretention cells, pervious pavement, green roofs, and other
rainscaping techniques at their home or business.
The Small Grants Rainscaping Program relied on in -person meetings to explain the program requirements and answer questions.
Now, interested participants can find the information in a series of videos that can be viewed online and take a quiz at the end to fulfill
the program requirements, or attend in -person meetings that will resume in 2023. The program plans to spend $800,000 in FY23,
and $600,000 in FY24 because the River Des Peres area funds will be depleted by that time.
WASTEWATER PROJECTS — In FY22, MSD planned 122 new or continuing wastewater projects, throughout the service area,
totaling $336 million. 119 went to the Board, the rest were either cancelled or continued to FY23. In FY24, MSD has plans for
109 new or continuing wastewater projects, throughout the service area, totaling $543 million. These projects are funded primarily
from the Sanitary Replacement Fund and bond sales. The work represents $0.6 million in continued projects and $542 million in
new projects.
STORMWATER PROJECTS - In FY22, MSD planned 22 stormwater projects, totaling $16.7 million. 26 appropriations were made,
with two projects continued to FY23. In FY24, MSD tentatively plans 35 stormwater projects, including continuing projects from
FY22, totaling $23 million.
BOND UTILIZATION & RATINGS — Since FY04, MSD has utilized voter approved bonds to lessen the steepness of necessary rate
increases. While bonds must be repaid with interest, the dollars raised through their issuance has helped maintain the
relative affordability of MSD rates.
Proceeds from the issuance of bonds must be — and can only be — used to finance wastewater projects that are a part of MSD's Capital
Improvement and Replacement Program (CIRP).
Through bond elections in 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2021 area voters have approved a total of $3.12 billion in bond authorizations.
As of December 31, 2022, MSD has utilized $2.49 billion of the voter approved bond authorizations. That leaves $628.2 million in bond
authorization remaining to be utilized.
Thanks to strong financial operations; an experienced management staff; strong management and planning capabilities for the CIRP;
and strong voter support for the bond authorizations, MSD enjoys some of the highest bond ratings received by any sewer utility in the
United States. The current ratings are: Moody's - Aa1; Standard & Poor's — AAA; Fitch — AA+. These strong ratings allow MSD to
issue bonds at lower interest rates, which in -turn lowers the costs that are passed on to MSD customers.
RATE COMMISSION — The independent MSD Rate Commission was established in 2000 through voter approved amendments to
MSD's Charter. Composed of 15 member organizations that represent a broad cross-section of MSD's customers and the community
it serves; the Rate Commission is designed to provide public input into how rates are set. By Charter, MSD staff is required to submit
all rate proposals to the Rate Commission. In turn, the Rate Commission independently reviews rate proposals and makes
recommendations to MSD's Board of Trustees. Only under parameters defined in MSD's Charter can Rate Commission
recommendations be changed, modified, or rejected.
Now, in FY23, the Rate Commission will convene to recommend rates for the FY 25 - 28 wastewater rates and to determine how
stormwater rates will be presented to rate payers. In FY24, it will be incumbent on MSD to educate the voters on both wastewater
and stormwater propositions that its Board will be requested to approve as a result of its Rate Commission proceedings.
DIVERSITY — Diversity efforts at MSD continue to focus on helping develop and grow minority- and women -owned business enterprises
(MWBE); and to develop a diverse workforce from which contractors can hire workers for MSD projects. In FY22, minority firms
performed $28.4 million in capital work, which represents 14.58% of MSD's capital program. Women -owned firms performed $16.6
million in capital work, representing 8.55% of MSD's capital program. Minority -owned design firms (professional services) accounted
for $12,8 or 38.13% of payments made to design firms, and women -owned design firms were paid $4.1 or 12.29% of payments made
to design firms in FY22.
Within the same timeframe, minority construction workforce participation was 196,185 hours, or 27.29% of the total hours worked on
capital projects. Women construction workforce participation was 53,203 hours, or 7.40% of total hours worked on capital projects. For
capital program professional services (design) with workforce participation goals, minorities represented 16.33% and women
represented 36.29% of the workforce.
As MSD continues the important work we are doing to protect our environment and serve our St. Louis community, we strive to ensure
that our efforts reflect the diverse citizenry that we serve.
18
We will continue to improve our customer service levels and inform the community of our operations and needs. We will persist in
addressing the health, safety, and environmental needs we face today and years into the future.
Sincerely,
Brian Hoelscher, P.E.
Executive Director & Chief Executive Officer

The District uses a multi -layered approach to collecting
past due accounts. It employs a series of automated
reminder calls to accounts that are 25 days delinquent.
Accounts that remain delinquent then progress to being
placed with collection agencies, second placement
agencies and eventually law firms for collection.
The District will establish wastewater user charges and
stormwater user charges, fees and tax rates at a level
related to the full cost (operating, direct, indirect and
capital) of providing the service. Voter approval is required
to implement tax rate increases.
The District is required to submit rate change proposals
to a Rate Commission. During this rate setting
process, the District's rate consultant performed a
detailed cost of service analysis using industry
standard principles endorsed by the Water
Environment Federation which allows the District to
demonstrate that rates have been set at a level to
recover the full cost, without excess, of providing
service.
The District will review wastewater fees and stormwater
user charges, and fees annually to determine if the
revenues support the cost of the service. Rate increases to
generate needed revenues are required, per Charter
Section 7.040, to be submitted to the District's Rate
Commission for review and recommendation to The Board.
The District reviews fee revenue annually as part of the
budget process to ensure it is adequate to meet the

improvements should not be financed from current
revenues. Long-term borrowing will not be used to finance
current operations or normal maintenance. Long-term debt
will be self-supporting and structured such that the
weighted average maturity of the debt does not exceed the
expected useful life of the capital project.
The District's use of revenue bonds during FY23 was
consistent with use of debt outlined in the Rate Change
Report accepted by The Board in October 2019. The
proceeds from these bonds were used solely for capital
improvements, where the assets gained have a useful
life greater than the weighted average maturity of the
debt.
The District may issue (1) general obligation bonds to
finance capital improvement projects that result in
community -wide benefits (2) revenue bonds to finance
capital improvement projects serviced from the net
revenues from a particular enterprise, such as sewer
service.
The District's use of revenue bonds in FY23 for capital
improvement projects will be serviced with pledged
revenues from sanitary sewer user charges.
Issuance of general obligation bonds requires 57%
approval of those voting at primary and general elections
and a 67% approval at other elections. Issuance of
revenue bonds requires simple majority approval of those
voting.
The District issued $125 million in new money revenue
bonds (2022C and 2022D) in FY23 from previous voter
authorization. As of 6/30/2023, the District is expected
to have approximately $320 million in remaining
bonding authorization approved by voters on 4/6/21. By
6/30/2024, the remaining authorization amount will be
$43 million.
No general obligation bonds shall be issued in an amount,
which together with existing indebtedness of the District or

Short-term borrowing may be utilized as authorized by
District Charter, Section 3.020(13), for the temporary
funding of capital projects or for operational cash flow
deficits subject to the following policies:
• District may issue short-term debt when there is a
defined and adequate repayment source.
• Lines of Credit may be considered as an alternative to
other short-term borrowing options if it is determined to be
more cost-effective.

FINANCIAL STRUCTURE
The District's financial structure is organized based on funds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity with fund specific
balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund balances, revenues, and expenditures. Governmental resources are allocated
to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending
activities are controlled.
The District uses both Governmental Funds and Proprietary Funds. The District uses a Modified Accrual method of budgeting, and both
Modified Accrual and Accrual bases of accounting.
In the table below, each fund type and group are identified. The purpose of the fund is stated, and the Budgeting Basis and Accounting
Basis are also reported for each fund group.
Modified Accrual Accounting or Budgeting recognizes revenues when they are
both available and measurable. Most expenditures are recognized when an
obligation to pay is established, except in the case of interest on long-term debt.
That interest expense is recognized when it is due.
Full Accrual Accounting is very similar to Modified Accrual Accounting. Under Full
Accrual revenues are recognized when earned, and expenditures are recognized
when an obligation to pay is established.
However, the major ways in which Modified Accrual is different than Full Accrual is
the recognition of Capital expenditures. Under the Modified Accrual method,
Capital expenditures are recognized when the entity has an obligation to pay.
Under the Full Accrual method, Capital expenditures are recognized over the life of
the asset.

and replacements to immediately address severe disruption in the
operations and maintenance of the District, weather related
disruption of District operations, and other disruptions of District
services caused by dramatic unforeseen events.

Note: (1) Performance is measured by 4 -hour window for emergency response. If our response time is longer than 4 hours we do not meet our goal.
Note: (2) Our compliance rate is measured against the requirements outlined in our NPDES Permits which are issued by the Department of Natural Resources. The permits have a number of
measurements that we must do to insure our treatment plants are in compliance. There are hundreds of tests we must perform on daily, weekly, and monthly basis throughout the year. Our goal is
100% compliance. If we fail a test for some reason, it lowers our percentage.
Note: (3) The planned Board Introduction month for each project in the CIRP is locked in June of the previous fiscal year. Performance is then measured by % of projects that were included on the Board
agenda for introduction by that date (on time or earlier).

BUDGET PROCESS FY24
The District's SBOP is the key to the development of the Annual Budget. The SBOP process begins in July when all Departments are given the opportunity
to reassess goals, strategies and objectives and the means for accomplishing them. The budget serves as the tool to communicate the District's long-term
plans and policies to the public, details the costs of services and programs and becomes the plan to accomplish the District's goals and objectives during the
next fiscal year.
The budget process begins in early October with the projection of revenues (wastewater and stormwater user charges, investment & other income). District -
wide imperatives and budgetary parameters are established by Executive Management and The Board of Trustees ("The Board"). The imperatives for this
fiscal year include:
IMPERATIVES FOR FY24
STRATEGIC BUSINESS PLAN
STRATEGY
OBJECTIVE
Base budgets, except for salaries, wages, and benefits, should remain at FY23 levels. All increases to current service
levels should be delayed if possible. Any proposed cost increases to accounts other than salaries, wages, and benefits
need to be justified as part of base budget submittals.
2
2
All business cases will require extended justification as to why new initiatives need to be done this year and cannot wait
until future budget requests.
2
2
No planned acceleration of Consent Decree projects. Acceleration of any projects during fiscal year only allowed after fiscal
review by senior management.
5
2
Department Directors and Managers begin budget development by providing an updated expenditure forecast for the remainder of FY23. A two step, zero -
based budgeting method is used to develop the FY24 budget. This method requires written justification as to need and purpose for all expenditures. The first
step is the preparation of a base budget that reflects the ongoing day-to-day operations of each Department. The second step is the preparation of an
incremental budget, which reflects costs associated with initiatives outlined in the SBOP. Throughout the budget development process, departmental staff is
required to evaluate programs and identify possible changes in services and staff positions. The Department Directors forward their proposed base budgets
to the Director of Finance for analysis. Cost benefit business cases are used to support incremental budgets submitted to the Executive Director for review.
The base budgets and requests for incremental funding are then compiled and further analyzed to ensure the preliminary budget meets the District's needs,
priorities, goals and objectives without exceeding forecasted resources.
Any unresolved issues are presented to the Executive Director for a final decision. The recommended budget reductions and adjustments are then
incorporated. Per Charter a preliminary budget is delivered to the Board for review by March 15th. A series of budget presentations are given to the Board's
Finance Committee to allow for more in-depth review by the Trustees.
42
BUDGET PROCESS FY24-continued
The Board's recommended budget adjustments are incorporated into a final budget document. A proposed financial plan and an Executive Summary of the
budget are communicated to the public in the form of a public hearing. The public hearing is advertised in the newspapers at least three weeks before the
scheduled hearing to allow sufficient time for the public to review and ask questions. The Board is then required to adopt the budget, tax and rate ordinances
(if applicable) consistent with the District's Charter and state law.
The District's fiscal year begins on July 1st. Departments are accountable for budgetary control throughout the fiscal year. Expenditure patterns are examined
and compared to budget plans with variances reported. Responses to significant variances are required quarterly from each Department and reviewed by the
Director of Finance. Budget status is reviewed with senior staff monthly and is reported quarterly to The Board at its monthly Finance Committee meeting.
The Director of Finance reviews the District's monthly financial statements and budget variance report ensuring the District's actual revenue is sufficient to
support budgeted expenditures. Forecasted expenses are also compared to budget. The District's operating budget is adopted at the Department level as
detailed in the District's Budget Ordinance. Any transfers between Funds require Board approval. Budget transfers are made on an as -needed basis.
Expenditures for the CIRP are presented on an appropriated basis as opposed to a cash flow basis. The District's accounting procedures require an adequate
budget to pay for planned Ordinances in the period in which an Ordinance is appropriated. All outstanding CIRP encumbrances remain open until a project is
completed.
There were no major changes from FY23 compared to FY24 in service levels, wastewater user charges, revenue bonds, fees, or taxes.
A budget is developed for both revenues and expenses:
1. Revenue expectations are developed from trend analysis, incorporating upcoming rate increases and significant economic and policy factors.
• FY24 Total Revenue: (shown in million $)
Wastewater User Charges: $470.1
Revenue Bonds: 278.0
Taxes: 48.9
Investment and Other Income: 14.5
Increase of Fund Balances: 144.8
TOTAL DISTRICT REVENUE: $956.3
2. Operating Expenses are developed using a zero -based budgeting method with written justification for all expenditures. The CIRP is developed by
the District's Engineering Department based on the revenues forecasted for the coming year. Projects prioritized for the coming year are outlined in
a supplemental report in conjunction with the Operating Budget. Debt service for the District's existing and forecasted use of bonds is developed by
the District's Secretary -Treasurer's Department and incorporated into the Operating Budget.

FY24 SOURCES OF FUNDING
USER CHARGES
The District has a Wastewater User Charge which is recorded in the Wastewater Revenue Fund. A portion of the revenue is transferred to the
General Fund to cover daily operating, maintenance and replacement costs; a portion is allocated to the Water Backup Insurance and
Reimbursement Fund to provide assistance to homeowners with damages resulting from blocked main and basement backups, a portion is
allocated to the General Insurance Fund to provide for workers' compensation, property, general liability and other insurance expenditures, and
a portion is allocated to the Debt Service Funds to meet debt service requirements on outstanding bonds issued for capital improvements. The
remainder of the revenue is transferred to the Capital Improvement and Replacement Fund for construction projects and emergencies. A chart
detailing the flow of funds is also included in the following pages of the Budget Summary section.
Wastewater: Residential customers with metered water service will pay a billing and collection charge, a system availability charge and
a volume charge based on the most recent winter quarter water usage. Unmetered customers will pay the same charges except for a
volume charge. Unmetered volume is based on housing attributes such as the number of rooms and plumbing fixtures.
Non-residential customers will pay the same charges plus an additional compliance charge. Some non-residential customers will pay
extra strength surcharges for the treatment of wastewater containing suspended solids, biochemical oxygen demand or chemical oxygen
demand exceeding normal wastewater strengths.
User Charges in the Wastewater Revenue Fund for FY24 is estimated at $468.2 million.
Other User Charges: Other User Charge revenue such as Late Fees, Lien Interest, Refunds and Account Adjustments are estimated
to be $1.9 million. This amount is net of a provision for doubtful accounts, or past -due customer bills that might go uncollected.
TOTAL WASTEWATER USER CHARGE REVENUE: The District's total FY24 User Charge revenue is estimated to be $470.1 million.
The District provides an assistance program to customers who meet the eligibility requirements of income, age or disability. Those customers
who are eligible will receive a credit equal to 50% of their sewer service charge bill. A composite schedule of the budgeted Wastewater and
Stormwater user charge revenue by customer class can be found in the pages of the Revenue Funds Section.
48
FY24 SOURCES OF FUNDING -continued
REVENUE BONDS
The District plans to receive approximately $278.0 million in bond and loan proceeds in FY24. These proceeds are expected to be derived from
$278.0 million from the Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (WIFIA).
Prior to a November 2000 Charter change, the District was unable to issue revenue bonds as a source of funding its CIRP. Almost all the
District's capital expenditures were funded from annual cash flow, known as Pay -As -You -Go (PAYGO) funding. Continuation of a PAYGO
approach as the District's sole funding option would have required significant rate increases to generate the necessary annual capital funding.
PAYGO is the lowest cost funding source due to its avoidance of the financing and interest costs associated with long term debt. The primary
negatives associated with PAYGO funding include: 1) the short-term impact on customer rates, and 2) the mismatch between the cost and
benefit of the District's capital infrastructure to the users. In the case of capital projects that have a long -life expectancy, PAYGO funding causes
today's customers to pay for an asset that will be used by tomorrow's customers for many years. Financing a portion of the capital program with
bonds is an excellent way to distribute the cost of long-term assets to the future customers who will benefit from the use of the assets and lessen
the impact of short-term rate increases.
It is typically considered good public policy to allocate a portion of the cost of long-term assets to future users by the use of debt. At the same
time, prudent fiscal policy would not allow 100% debt financing. The goal is to strike the correct balance between the distribution of the cost of
long-term assets to the users that benefit from them and maintaining healthy financial ratios.
49
FY24 SOURCES OF FUNDING -continued
AD VALOREM TAXES
The District's budget for tax revenue in FY24 totals $48.8 million. During FY24 all taxpayers within the District's boundaries will be assessed a
$0.0155 (one point fifty-five cents) per $100 of assessed valuation tax levy to pay primarily for stormwater services required by State and Federal
regulations. Except for taxpayers living in certain levy districts, all taxpayers within the District will also be assessed a $0.0801 (eight point zero
one cents) per $100 of assessed valuation tax levy to pay for the District's non -regulatory stormwater costs. This tax revenue of approximately
$38.2 million is recorded in the Stormwater Regulatory Fund ($6.4 million) and the Districtwide Stormwater Fund ($31.8 million) of the District.
Other property tax rates were suspended within the District's boundaries beginning in FY17. All subdistrict taxes previously collected within
these boundaries are held in the OMCI fund balances and must be used primarily for stormwater capital improvements and stormwater operating
expenses within the specific subdistrict boundaries in which the taxes were collected. However, in FY21 the District reinstated six of the tax
levies and one additional in FY23 totaling $10.7 million in FY24 to provide funding for stormwater capital projects for Subdistrict No. 367 (Deer
Creek Stormwater Subdistrict) in the amount of $4.3 million, Coldwater Creek Trunk Subdistrict in the amount of $2.3 million, newly added
Gravois Creek Trunk Subdistrict in the of $1.6 million, Subdistrict No. 366 (University City Branch of River des Peres Stormwater Subdistrict) in
the amount of $1.1 million, Maline Creek Trunk Subdistrict in the amount of $0.8 million, Subdistrict No. 454 (Seminary Branch of River des
Peres) in the amount of $0.3 million and Subdistrict No. 369 (Sugar Creek Stormwater Subdistrict) in the amount of $0.3 million. The detailed
taxes rates are included in the tax ordinance section.
50
FY24 SOURCES OF FUNDING -continued
INVESTMENT INCOME & OTHER FEES
Investment Income and Other Fees will fund $14.6 million of the Budget. Investment income of approximately $5.0 million is anticipated.
Connection fees are expected to generate $3.2 million based on a flat rate per connection to the sanitary system. These revenue estimates are
based on previous experience, current economic conditions and anticipated new home construction. Miscellaneous income of approximately
$5.9 million is expected, $4.0 million relates to state grant, $1.3 million of court awarded court costs and attorney fees, reimbursement of district
costs totaling $135 thousand, $161 thousand pertaining to forfeited construction deposits, $11 thousand for sale of scrap and the remainder
consists of $297 thousand of miscellaneous income. Rental income is expected to generate $0.4 million. Finally, $0.1 million is expected to be
generated from the sale of property.
FUND BALANCES
These sources of funding will result in a fund balance decrease of $144.8 million during FY24.

Wastewater User Charges
This analysis of MSD's revenue compares actual revenues received in FY21, FY22 and forecasted for FY23, budgeted for FY24 and projected for FY25 and FY26.
The District normally submits a Rate Change Proposal to the Rate Commission every four years. The analysis required to complete this proposal includes impacts
of historical tends, the local economy, housing development and projected inflation factors. A Rate Commission Report, accepted by the Board of Trustees,
recommended a four-year Wastewater User Charge rate with annual increases from FY21 through FY24. Revenue growth from rate increases has been
mitigated by a declining trend in billed volumes resulting in a compounded annual wastewater revenue growth rate of approximately 2.2% from FY21 to FY26.
Taxes which fund MSD's stormwater services fluctuate little from year-to-year and are expected to be approximately $48.8 million in FY24. For FY25, the District
went to the Rate Commission with a rate change proposal in February of 2023. For now, the FY24 approved rates are used to project FY25 and FY26 revenue.
In April 2016, the voters approved the authorization of $900 million in bonds and voters approved another $500 million authorization in April 2021. The
District continues to utilize that authorization with $553 million remaining at the end of May FY22. In FY20, bond proceeds of $352 million were utilized against
the April 2016 authorization. Planned issuances in FY25 will further utilize the April 2016 and portion of April 2021 authorizations. It is estimated the
authorization will be fully depleted in FY25. The proposed bond proceeds take into consideration the required CIRP, the cost of issuance, and the rate of return.
Interest, fees, and miscellaneous includes interest on investments, connection and other fees. The impact of these revenue sources does not change significantly
in most years. Finally, Fund Balance appears on the graph as a revenue source in years where fund balance declines as it is used to fund operations, debt service,
or the CIRP.

FY24 MSD FLOW OF USER CHARGE FUNDS
MSD has two separate and distinct self-supporting services: wastewater service and stormwater service. To recover the cost of providing these
services in a fair and equitable manner, two distinct pricing methods are used. The wastewater service charge is based on the volume and strength
of wastewater discharged into the sewer, whereas the stormwater services are paid for with ad valorem taxes instead of a user charge.
Wastewater User Charges are recorded in the Wastewater Revenue Fund for which the details are provided in the revenue section of this
document. The entire balance of this fund is transferred each month to other function -specific funds. From the Wastewater Revenue Fund, the
largest amounts are allocated to the General Fund for the operation and maintenance of existing facilities and the Sanitary Replacement Fund for
the replacement of existing facilities. Smaller amounts are transferred to the Wastewater Emergency Fund to cover the cost of emergency work
that may occur during this fiscal year, the Water Backup Insurance & Reimbursement Fund to cover the cost of water backup insurance and
reimbursement, the General Insurance Fund to cover the cost of all other insurance premiums and related costs, and the Debt Service Fund to
cover the cost of principal and interest on revenue bonds.
The overall budget for the General Fund, whose resources are only partially made up of the sewer service charge allocation from the revenue
fund, is in the General Fund section.
The proposed budget for the Sanitary Replacement Fund can be found in the Construction Funds section. The revenue derived from the applicable
user charge is listed as an Interfund Transfer in the column labeled FY24 BUDGET. The pages immediately following the table show the projects
currently planned for that fund.
The proposed budget for the Wastewater Revenue Bond Service Fund is in the Debt Service Funds section. The revenue transferred from the
Wastewater Revenue Fund is listed as an Interfund Transfer in the column labeled FY24 BUDGET.
The proposed budget for the Water Backup Insurance and Reimbursement Fund, the General Insurance Fund, and the Wastewater Emergency
Fund can be found in the Special Funds section. The revenue transferred from the Wastewater Revenue Fund is listed as an Interfund Transfer
in the columns labeled FY24 BUDGET.

FY24 MONTHLY USER CHARGE STRUCTURE
A cost of service model is used to project revenues and revenue requirements for four fiscal years, recognizing anticipated growth in number of customers and increased wastewater flows
throughout the service area. The study of revenue requirements recognizes projected operation and maintenance expense, capital improvement requirements met from revenues, principal and
interest payments on current and proposed revenue bond issues, and recommended reserve fund requirements.
Allocated costs of service are developed for each class of customer and type of service based on considerations of utility revenue needs and projected customer service requirements. User
charge rate adjustments are designed for customers in accordance with allocated costs of service and local policy and practical considerations.

future. The District's contributions were made and will continue to be made in accordance with the actuarially determined contribution
requirements based on actuarial valuations.
The charts below includes liabilities and related ratios for the Pension:

Explanation of Changes in Fund Balance Greater Than Ten Percent
Fund
Explanation
S
1101— General Fund
This fund balance is expected to decrease by 29% or $17 million during FY24. The main reason for this
decrease is due to reallocation of sewer service charges. Because the General Fund receives much of its
funding from sewer service charges, this source of funding fluctuates based on General Fund needs against
the needs of Construction Funds and Special Funds. In FY24, the Construction Fund received more of the
sewer service allocation in order to better follow the District's rate model Pay -go projections.
6660 — Sanitary
Replacement Fund
This fund balance is expected to decrease by 33% or $126.1 million during FY24. The main reason for this
decrease is the timing of loan proceeds and project expenditures. For FY24, the District is projecting to
receive $278 million from a WIFIA (Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act) loan. The WIFIA loan
will fund the Bissell and Lemay Fluidized Bed Incinerators Project. The District still needs Pay -go to fund all
other capital projects not covered by WIFIA and the use of fund balances.
5000 — OMCI Funds
This fund balance is expected decrease by 30% due to the timing of appropriations of the OMCI capital
projects and the municipality grant program.
5000 — Stormwater Funds This fund is expected to increase by 11% due to the timing of the appropriations regarding stormwater
capital projects.

The Capital Improvement and Replacement Program identifies, prioritizes, establishes
scope of work, and oversees completion of wastewater and stormwater related projects.
Capital projects are funded via sewer service charges, revenue bonds and tax receipts.
Non -capital related projects are funded through the General Fund.
79
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT AND REPLACEMENT PROGRAM SUMMARY
The identification and prioritization of projects to be included in the Capital Improvement and Replacement Program (CIRP) is a multi -step process,
requiring continuous monitoring and updating to ensure that the highest priority problems within the District are addressed in a timely manner, given
funding limitations. These stages include project identification with conceptual solution, preliminary study, final design and construction.
New projects are identified on an ongoing basis to ensure that the District complies with the regulatory requirements of the United States Environmental
Protection Agency and Missouri Department of Natural Resources, to address customer problems, remedy deficiencies and implement required
collection system and wastewater treatment plant upgrades. At each step in the process the project scope is reevaluated to verify that it continues to
meet regulatory requirements and customers' needs. The project cost is updated based on available information, and the project's priority is assessed
to ensure that the highest priority projects are funded first.
Upon the initial identification of the regulatory issues, localized problems, or system deficiencies, a conceptual solution is developed, which includes
a project scope, cost estimate and priority ranking relative to similar projects. The District creates a project based on this conceptual solution, and the
project may then be incorporated into the CIRP based on priority. Before the year in which funding of the project is anticipated, a preliminary study is
performed. In this study, scope is reevaluated in greater detail. A project may be rescheduled to a later fiscal year within the CIRP, should priority
ranking be reduced due to increased project cost or modification of its scope. Project cost estimates used in the budget preparation process are usually
based on the preliminary study stage of the process. Preliminary study cost estimates are based on incomplete information but are intended to be within
thirty percent of the design engineer's final estimates.
The final design of a project is performed by either the District's Engineering Department staff or by an engineering consultant hired via a qualifications -
based selection process. For projects of significant scope and impact, coordination with property owners who will benefit or who will be affected by
the construction of the project is achieved at "open -line" meetings hosted by the District. A project is advertised for public bidding a minimum of 30
days, followed by a formal public bid opening. Bids are evaluated to determine the lowest responsive, responsible bidder. A construction contract is
then awarded to the lowest responsible, responsive bidder.
Wastewater projects are funded via revenue from the wastewater user charge paid by ratepayers. The user charge also supports the sale of revenue
bonds to fund the wastewater program. The Sanitary Replacement Fund is used to pay for capital wastewater work, while the General Fund is used to
pay for non -capital wastewater related work. The allocation of a given project's costs between these two funds is an accounting function necessary to
facilitate capitalization of District assets. Wastewater projects may also be funded by various Operation, Maintenance, Construction and Improvement
(OMCI) Funds, Construction Funds, Special Funds, or the Improvement Fund. Stormwater projects may be funded via the General Fund, Construction
Funds, Special Funds, the Improvement Fund, the Districtwide Stormwater Fund, or from various OMCI Funds.
The CIRP for the FY24 budget year is summarized by project type on the following pages. For additional information on the stages of identification
and prioritization of projects, please refer to the Program Summary section of the FY24 Budget Supplement.

NOTES:
1. Only projects with an impact on operating costs are included here. For a full list of projects, please see the FY24 Budget Supplement located in the appendix.
2. Projects that include rehabilitation or replacement will reduce the need for preventive maintenance and possible basement back-ups resulting in savings of operating costs. Inflow and Infiltration
(I/I) projects result in less wastewater being processed at treatment facilities. Sewer separation and relief projects generate added sewer pipe such that an added cost is expected in maintaining those
structures.

WASTEWATER CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS
The projects described in this section are related to construction, rehabilitation or maintenance repair of sanitary or combined
sewers, pump stations and force mains improvements to existing treatment plants, and the reduction of inflow and infiltration
into the sewer system. These types of projects help alleviate building backups, address regulatory issues, enable the removal
of sanitary and combined sewer overflows, and rebuild part of our aging infrastructure system. Fifty-seven* (57) projects
are to be funded at a total estimated cost of $484,636,000.
The District's revenue sources for construction of most of these projects are the Sanitary Replacement Fund and the General
Fund, which receive money from wastewater user charges and from the sale of revenue bonds. The remaining projects will
be funded with revenues from various Operation, Maintenance, Construction, and Improvement (OMCI) Funds, Districtwide
Stormwater Fund**, and Special Funds. The property taxes collected within the boundaries of the OMCI Taxing Districts
must be spent for improvements within their specific areas of collection. The Improvement Fund also receives revenues
from various connection fees.
*Due to some of the projects having split funding, containing both wastewater and stormwater components, projects are counted in their
respective categories, but are only counted once in the summary.
**The Districtwide Stormwater Fund is generally reserved for stormwater expenses, but the wastewater project planned for this fund is related
to the wastewater consent decree and includes stormwater regulatory benefits.

WASTEWATER ENGINEERING PROJECTS
The projects described in this section relate to the preliminary or final design of new or rehabilitated sanitary and combined
sewer systems, pump stations, force mains, and treatment plants. Also included in this section are projects relating to
combined and separate sewer overflow elimination and separation projects, additional appropriations for combined and
separate sewer area inflow/infiltration assessments, combined and separate sewer area CCTV inspections and physical
inspection of sewers, construction management services, and continued funding of the District's Watershed Design efforts.
The construction phase of design projects is planned in later fiscal years due to the complexity of the designs, the size of the
projects, and the time required to obtain needed easements.
Fifty-six* (56) wastewater engineering projects are planned at a total estimated cost of $58,179,500. The cost estimates
indicated are for only the required engineering work and do not include construction. The project scopes are fully described
in the Budget Supplement document located in the appendix. The District's revenue sources for the majority of these projects
are from the Sanitary Replacement Fund and the General Fund.
*Due to some of the projects having split funding, containing both wastewater and stormwater components, projects are counted in their
respective categories, but are only counted once in the summary.

▪ Wastewater User Charge
This analysis of MSD's revenue compares actual revenues received in FY21 and FY22, forecasted for FY23, budgeted for FY24 and projected for FY25 and FY26.
As the budget and projected years are calculated, there are several factors that are analyzed when projecting general fund revenues such as historiclal trends,
the economy, and local impacts.
Wastewater User Charges recorded in the General Fund include adjustments, late charges, and other fees associated with collection of the wastewater user
charge netted against the bad debt provision. These net revenues are projected to be $1.9 million in FY24 which is up from $1M in FY22.
Connection and Other Fees continue to hover around $2.0 million during the reporting period, which historically, have remained consistent. The District
assumes this pattern to continue.
The Other Miscellaneous revenue category in FY22 included 2.4M in liquidated damages, but that revenue source is expected to normalize around $3 million
going forward with projected FY26 revenue of $2.4 million. Historical trends are utilized in the projection due to the consistent pattern in the past.
When fund balances decline, the use of fund balance is represented in the graph as a source of revenue. The General Fund fluctuates based on the
balancing needs of construction funds and special funds. In FY23-26, fund balance in the General Fund is expected to decrease.
A final note, the General Fund receives its main funding from sewer service charges which is originally received into the revenue fund and then later transferred
to the General Fund. These revenues are omitted from this graph because they are already reported as revenues in the revenue funds.

FY24 SIGNIFICANT BUDGET CHANGES
GENERAL FUND
Personnel Services — 51000 Natural Account Group
Personnel Services increased approximately $4.5 million or 4% from the FY23 Budget. This increase reflects a $1.7 million increase in
Salaries & Wages including FICA and $2.8 million increase for the Defined Benefit and the Defined Contribution Plans. The increase in
contributions is due primarily to an increase in the actuarially determined contribution resulting from lower than assumed returns on the
defined benefit assets in 2022 and increased participation in the defined contribution plan. All other changes are less significant.
Supplies — 52000 Natural Account Group
Supplies increased $2.9 million, or 15% compared to the FY23 Budget. Due to sky -rocketing cost of supplies this past year, Chemical
Supplies increased $1.3 million due to price increases and Telephone/Communication equipment increased approximately $500 thousand.
The account group of Fuels/Lubricants/Gases, Machinery & Eq parts, Construction & Building supplies, Electrical supplies, Engineering and
Drafting supplies, Computer Equipment — Non -capital, and lastly Publications/Training supplies sum up to an increase of $1.1 million. All
other changes are less significant.
Utilities — 53000 Natural Account Group
Utilities are anticipated to increase $698 thousand or 4% from the FY23 Budget. The largest contributor of this increase relates to Natural
Gas. It is expected to increase by $476 thousand, Water usage by $213 thousand and Electric usage by $175 thousand at our treatment
plants to continue to meet regulatory requirements. Telephone usage decreased by $166 thousand.
Contractual Services — 54000 Natural Account Group

for Board of Election Commission, $1.7 million in the Temporary Help (Contracted), $2.9 million in Building Repairs & Services. In addition,
an increase of $185 thousand increase in Machinery and Equipment Services; $185 thousand for Sewer Repair & Structure Cleaning, and
$232 thousand for Community Outreach programs. The increases are offset by decreases of $1 million in Professional Services due to
reduction of professional services in the Executive Director area and $221 thousand due to reduction of Bill Payment services after last year's
increased efforts for collections. All other changes are less significant.
Capital Outlay — 55000 Natural Account Group
Capital Outlay increased $98 thousand or 2% from prior year. The increase is the result of increases $331 thousand related to Computer
Equipment, $95 thousand related to Furniture & Office equipment, and $93 thousand in Processing and offset by decreases in Structural
Improvements of $191 thousand, $155 thousand in motor vehicles and Machinery & Implements of $105 thousand. All other changes are
less significant.

2. Continued to implement projects related to Project Clear to reduce the constructed SSOs and improve the capacity of the sanitary
and combined sewer systems. The Capital Construction Division kicked off a total of 72 new construction projects accounting for
approximately $183 million in construction spending. During Fiscal Year 2022 approximately 45 miles of pipe ranging in size from
6 -inch to 72 -inch were rehabilitated using Cured -In -Place Pipe or other rehabilitation methods. In addition to rehabilitated pipe,
the Construction Division managed the construction of over 60,000 feet of new sanitary sewer ranging in size from 6 -inch to 72 -
inch. Also, projects were ongoing or completed which made improvements at the Lemay WWTF, Bissell WWTF, Grand Glaize
WWTF and other existing pumps stations and treatment facilities throughout the District. Additionally, facility projects were
completed such as the Kingsland Wet Weather Storage Facility in addition to the ongoing major construction projects such as the
Jefferson Barracks Tunnel, Lower Middle RDP Tunnel, Deer Creek Tunnel, and Deer Creek Pump Station. Also, in addition to the
Capital Construction Division, the Development Inspection Division of Construction Management completed over 250 BMP
approvals and assisted in the inspection of 1,700 post construction BMP inspections. This group also inspected over 80 miles of
private development sewer that will be dedicated to MSD upon final construction approval. Strategy 5, Objective 2)
3. Completed the Inflow and Infiltration Allocation Study in preparation for the next Wastewater Rate Case. Continued ongoing State
Revolving Fund low interest loan program administration. Submitted applications in FY22 to MDNR for $10 Million in loan funding
and a $1 Million Grant for the MSD Public I/I Reduction Program Phase VIII, and $37.1 Million in loan funding for the Bissell Fine
Screens project. Obtained agreement from MDNR to carryover $228 Million in SRF loan funding for the Bissell & Lemay Fluidized
Bed Incinerators project to the next IUP, to enable loan closing in FY23. Added 6 CIPP construction projects to the MSD Public I/I
Reduction Program in FY22. Obtained $12.79 Million in supplemental Corps of Engineers funding, to enable the Corps to
complete construction of the Harlem Baden Relief Phase IV (Hebert) — Goodfellow to Hamilton project, fully fund construction of
the Harlem Baden Relief Phase IV (Hebert) — Sewer Rehabilitation project, and fully fund a new $6 Million Infrastructure Repairs
(Rehabilitation)(2023) Corps CSO Program project.
208
Continued ongoing program administration of a $2.783 Million stormwater grant from MDNR to provide 50% reimbursement of
construction costs on 11 stormwater projects, obtaining approval from MDNR to add a project constructed by the City of St. Louis
to the program. Obtained MDNR plan/spec approval for all projects, which have all proceeded to construction. Obtained one-year
grant term extension to allow time for all projects to be reimbursed. (Strategy 2, Objective 3)
4. Continued to implement the design related to Project Clear, awarding a total of 67 new construction bids accounting for
approximately $134 million in construction spend. Continued to implement the design related to Project Clear and the Stormwater
Program, with a total design appropriation of $17 million. Designed and contracted for 248 infrastructure repair projects totaling
$3.5 million. Successfully acquired 194 easements and closed upon 2 resident relocations, to allow for capital construction
projects. Processed and administered consultant selection RFQ/RFP for 22 engineering contracts/projects. Continued
maintenance of the long-term budget in the EPBCS/Hyperion budget system for the capital program, for the entire period of the
Consent Decree, through FY2039. Completed the 2022-2023 Capital Improvement and Replacement Program (CIRP) budgeting
process and published the Budget Supplement document. The program consists of 134 projects totaling $417 million in design
and construction planned for FY23. (Strategy 5, Objective 2)
5. Procured and implemented PC SWMM modeling software upgrades to take advantage of new technology that will increase
engineering efficiencies in flow metering, modeling, and capacity assurance analysis. Conducted quarterly meetings with
Engineering and General Counsel staffs to monitor and adjust projects in order to ensure compliance with the Consent Decree
performance measure for the elimination of 85% Constructed Sanitary Overflows by the end of calendar 2023. (Strategy 5,
Objective 2)
6. Developed rough draft of Linear Asset Management software RFP. (Strategy 5, Objective 3)
7. Grant program is active in 5 of 6 OMCI subdistricts. Allocated $3.4M in funds to the 37 of 46 eligible communities participating.
Reviewed and approved 12 grant applications requesting an overall $2.7M. One grant project was completed and paid ($16K).
(Strategy 5, Objective 1)
8. Continued WWOP (13436) and SCADA Upgrades Project (13467). WWOP Pilot Project has realized 20% reduction in CSO
volume at the site (160Mgal CSO reduction). Completed Optimization evaluation of the existing collection system in the Lemay
Service Area and provided recommendations to staff. Evaluating the implementation of the key recommendations for
implementation in FY 23-24. Optimization began for the "Interim" and "Full Build Out" scenarios. Assurance for the secure
transfer of data was evaluated and approved by MSD IT and is to be implemented by the consultant pursuant to the completion of
a project data dashboard and digital twin. SCADA Upgrades Project has completed the planning stage. All project phases have
been identified and budgeted in the FY25-29 Rate Cycle. Priority is being given to the CSO/gate/ORS locations on the RDP in
order to facilitate RTC and Optimization during wet -weather. (Strategy 5, Objective 5)
9. Implemented efforts to reduce size and reorganize network drives and network access groups. Worked closely with IT. Informed
managers and set up summary files so managers would know what groups to request for new and transferred employees. There
209
is now District -wide access to common Engineering network folders, with appropriate controls in place to protect records. Project
completed in March 2022. Initiated electronic file cleanup of Scans and Graphics shares that are used by Central Files and
Graphics. These are not part of the N drive. Administered changes to streamline communications related to consultant selection
process. An RFQRFP e-mail address is now being used. This makes the communications available to multiple people and
isolates those communications so records can easily be archived. Coordinated departmental efforts related to first phase of
Oracle Fusion Upgrade. Researched and discussed with others. Completed 28 detailed workflow documents in conjunction with
an IT contractor. Reviewed RFP proposals and Statement of Work. (Strategy 3, Objectives1 & 3)

WW User Charge Revenue
This analysis of MSD's revenue compares actual revenues received in FY21 and FY22, forecasted for FY23, budgeted for FY24 and projected for
FY25 and FY26.
All user charge revenue is initially recorded in the Revenue Funds. A portion of the revenue is transferred to the General Fund to cover daily
operating, maintenance, and replacement costs. The remainder of the revenue is transferred to the Construction Funds for capital improvement
and replacement projects, the Special Funds for the Water Backup Insurance & Reimbursement Program; the General Insurance Fund to cover
any expenditure related to workers' compensation, property, general liability, and flood insurance and related expenses; the Wastewater
Emergency Fund for possible emergencies; and the Debt Service Funds to retire bonds issued for capital improvements.
FY23 forecast is showing an increase of 4% from FY22. FY21 is the first year of a four year rate cycle of our current rate commission accepted
rate increases. Rates for FY21 to FY24 were set by our Board of Trustees based on the Rate Commission Report. The Rate Commission process
includes analyzing the historical trends, number of customer accounts and usage, the future requirement for capital and expenditures for
operation and maintenance, the debt coverage and the economy as well as possible regulatory requirements. Rate increases in the 3-4% range
were recommended by that report for FY22 through FY24. Declines in volumes and customers has kept revenues from growing at the same pace
as the rates. The District went back to the Rate Commission with a rate change proposal in February of 2023. For now, the FY24 approved rates
are used to project FY25 and FY26 revenue.

*The Stormwater User Charge was eliminated in FY17 and replaced with a new Stormwater Operation and Maintenance Property Tax approved by the voters in the April 2016 election.

These funds were established to receive and disburse proceeds from revenue sources for
construction of improvements to sewerage and drainage collection systems and treatment
facilities.
Capital improvement projects are continued from previous budget years due to difficulties in
easement acquisitions, permit process, design revisions or special requirements. Funding sources
for capital improvement projects are primarily from User Charges, Revenue Bonds, Grants and
Investment Income. Fund 6660 (Sanitary Replacement Fund) is a major construction fund.

Revenue Bonds & Short-term Debt
This analysis of MSD's revenue compares actual revenues received in FY21 and FY22, forecasted for FY23, budgeted for FY24 and projected for FY25
and FY26.
Since February 2004 the voters have authorized the issuance of $3.12 billion in revenue bonds in order to continue the multi -decade capital needs
program for construction of improvements to sewerage collection systems and treatment facilities. The District has $853.1 million of this
authorization available including the recent authorization in FY21 for $500 million, with plans to issue $278 million in FY24.
The changes to fund balance are the result of timing differences between the issuance of new bonds and the expenditure of those bond proceeds on
capital projects. Use of fund balance is considered a revenue for presentation purposes and to balance the budget.
Another significant source of cash flows into this fund group is from the wastewater user charges. This funding source is not represented in this
graph because it is originally received into the Wastewater Revenue Fund. However, it is planned to provide financing of $125 million in FY24 for
capital project expenditures.

STORMWATER FUNDS
These funds were established to account for ad valorem taxes. The Stormwater Regulatory
Fund, Districtwide Stormwater Fund and the Stormwater Operations and Maintenance Fund
are reported in this section and receive, or at one time received, property tax revenues.
These are stormwater dedicated funds primarily for stormwater operations and maintenance.
As fund balances allow, a limited number of stormwater capital projects will be charged to
these funds.

This analysis of MSD's revenue compares actual revenues received in FY21 and FY22, forecasted for FY23, budgeted for FY24 and projected for
FY25 and FY26.
The Stormwater funds acquired revenue through ad valorem taxes for operations of the District's stormwater utility, including stormwater system
operation and maintenance, rehabilitation and limited construction of infrastructure and other captial improvements, and an opeating reserve.
There are currently two of these funds (5110 - Stormwater Regulatory Fund and 5120- Distictwide Stormwater Fund) either collecting tax revenue,
using or holding tax revenue balances. Ad valorem taxes based on current property assessed valuation provided by the City of St. Louis and St.
Louis County are projected to remain flat through the projections period. The Tax Ordinance found at the back of this book provides more detail
about this funding source.
Interest and other miscellaneous revenue contributes small but consistent levels of revenue in these funds with an estimated increase in the
projected years due to the expected grant funds for reimbursement for stormwater projects.
The reduction in fund balance in FY21, FY23, and FY25 through FY26 is due to planned spend down of balances in those funds mostly due to
fluctuations in capital projects.

OPERATION, MAINTENANCE and CONSTRUCTION IMPROVEMENT FUNDS
These funds were established to account for proceeds from tax levies. Expenditures are
primarily for stormwater sewer improvements and stormwater maintenance and operation.
Taxes collected in the various subdistricts must be spent within the subdistrict. Effective in
FY17, all subdistrict tax rates were voluntarily set to zero. Beginning in FY21, tax rates in six
of the subdistricts were reinstated, allowing stormwater projects to start. In addition, in the
FY23 budget, an OMCI fund for the Gravois Creek Trunk Subdistrict was reinstated. Fund
balances will be spent on either projects or maintenance and operation expense in the
respective subdistricts.

o Taxes
This analysis of MSD's revenue compares actual revenues received in FY21 and FY22, forecasted for FY23, budgeted for FY24 and projected for
FY25 and FY26.
This graph only includes Operation, Maintenance and Construction Improvement funds, and they receive, or at one time received, property tax
revenues. There are currently 16 of these funds either collecting tax revenue, using or holding tax revenue balances. Stormwater capital projects
are largely funded through prior year taxes collected and held in fund balances. Ad valorem taxes based on current property assessed valuation
provided by the City of St. Louis and St. Louis County are projected to remain flat through the projections period. In FY17, the OMCI funds' tax
rates where set to zero, and a new Stormwater Operations and Maintenance Property Tax, approved by voters in April 2016, was levied to collect
taxes in the Districtwide Stormwater Fund for the first time. In FY21 six of the subdistricts restarted tax assessment to assist with projects required
in their area. In FY23 a seventh subdistrict will restart tax assessment. These seven subdistrict assessments will result in tax revenue amounting to
$10.7 million dollars at varying rates from 2.7 to 10 cents per $100 assessed valuation. The tax ordinance found at the back of this book provides
more detail about this funding source.
Interest and other miscellaneous revenue contributes small but consistent levels of revenue in these funds.
Actual FY21, Actual FY22, Forecast FY23 and the FY26 budget include an increase in fund balance due to restarting those 7 subdistrict assessments. In
FY24 construction and engineering budgets in these funds exceed this additional revenue, but in FY25 an increase in fund balance is again anticipated.

These funds were established to account for and report principal and interest
expenditures and a portion of bond proceeds.
In 2004, 2008, 2012 and 2016, St. Louis voters authorized the sale of Wastewater
Revenue Bonds totaling $2.6 billion to fund the District's wastewater capital
improvement program. Voters authorized an additional $500 million in revenue bonds
in 2021.

This analysis of MSD's revenue compares actual revenues received in FY21 and FY22, forecasted for FY23, budgeted for FY24 and projected for
FY25 and FY26.
The issuance of districtwide revenue bonds is used to fund wastewater capital improvement projects. In FY24, Revenue Bonds represents the bond
proceeds from a $278 million WIFIA loan. Approximately 10% of the proceeds from senior bonds issued were previously required to be placed in
reserve in accordance with MSD's bond covenants. Future bond issuances are not expected to have this requirement, therefore anticipated reserve
revenue to the Debt Service is not projected. The FY25 & FY26 projection includes proceeds of $157 million & $123 million respectively to be used
to refund existing debt.
Interest revenue in these funds is anticipated to be approximately $386 thousand per year, but is not significant to appear on the graph.
While the major source of cash inflows to this fund group are from user charge revenue transferred from the Wastewater Revenue Fund to pay
principal and interest as it comes due, those inflows are not reflected on this chart since they are originally received into the Wastewater Revenue
Fund. The transfer of that money is planned to closely mirror the expenditures for principal and interest on the debt.

Special Funds of the District are
comprised of the following:
IMPROVEMENT FUND:
A fund to pay the cost of any improvements or to purchase any special tax bills issued for any improvement. The fund can receive
monies from the General Fund, bond issues, collection of special benefit assessments or special tax bills, sale of special tax bills, or any
other source provided by law.
WATER BACKUP INSURANCE & REIMBURSEMENT FUND:
A fund to be used to respond to water backups caused by overcharged lines or blocked mains. This fund will administer the Water
Backup Insurance and Reimbursement Program.
GENERAL INSURANCE FUND:
A fund to be used to pay the cost of workers' compensation claims, property insurance, general liability, auto liability, flood insurance
and all expenses (i.e. premiums, claims, claim expenses, claim recoveries and claim accruals) related to these coverages.
EMERGENCY FUNDS:
Funds to be used for emergency sewer repairs and replacements in the operation and maintenance of the District that are of such a
nature as to be non-measureable in the budgeting and appropriations of annual revenues.

Fund Balance
• Interest, Fees, Misc.
This analysis of MSD's revenue compares actual revenues received in FY21 and FY22, forecasted for FY23, budgeted for FY24 and
projected for FY25 and FY26.
Budgeted and projected interest income is based on the average of beginning and ending fund balances unless cash balances are
expected to be materially different from fund balances. Connection Fees are recorded in the Improvement Fund and estimated
based on historical trends.
Excess funds are retained in fund balances until emergency or other funds are needed. In FY23 the District experienced an
historic flooding event which resulted in a forecasted 36% reduction in the Water Backup Fund balance. The budget FY24 and
projected FY25 and FY26 are estimated to not include those one time events.
The most significant source of cash inflows to this fund group are from user charge revenue not shown in the graph because they
are originally received into the revenue funds and distributed in part to the Special Funds. These transfers are allocated to the
Water Backup fund, the General Insurance Fund, and the Wastewater Emergency fund for the purposes designated by ordinance
for each of these funds.

the waters of the United States. It gave EPA the
authority to implement pollution control programs
such as setting wastewater standards for industry.
The Clean Water Act also continued requirements to
set water quality standards for all contaminants in
surface waters. The Act made it unlawful for any
person to discharge any pollutant from a point source
into navigable waters, unless a permit was obtained
under its provisions. It also funded the construction of
sewage treatment plants under the construction
grants program and recognized the need for planning
to address the critical problems posed by nonpoint
source pollution.
