WHEREAS:

1. On February 20, 1997, the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) committed (per resolution No. 97-010) a total of $50 million of State Revolving Funds to the City and County of San Francisco (City) for the construction of Rankin Street Pump Station and Southeast Water Pollution Control Plant Improvements, Contracts "4" & "5" and Islais Creek Transport and Storage Facilities, Contracts "B" & "E";

1. The SWRCB decommitted the funding (per Resolution No. 98-029) on April 16, 1998 because the City was unable to accept loans from the SWRCB due to City Charter reform; and

1. The voters in San Francisco approved a City Charter amendment restoring the City's ability to accept SRF loans on the June 1998 Ballot and the City has requested recommitment of SRF loans and is now prepared to accept new SRF loans.

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT:

The State Water Resources Control Board recommits State Revolving Fund loan funding of only $50 million to the City and County of San Francisco for the construction of Rankin Street Pump Station and Southeast Water Pollution Control Plant Improvements, Contracts "4" & "5" and Islais Creek Transport and Storage Facilities, Contracts "B" & "E", project numbers C-06-4025-252, -260, -420, and -451, with a repayment period of 20 years, and the first repayment due one year after the first loan disbursement.

The undersigned, Administrative Assistant to the Board, does hereby certify that the foregoing is a full, true, and correct copy of a resolution duly and regularly adopted at a meeting of the State Water Resources Control Board held on November 19, 1998.
