September 30, 2016

The Massachusetts Clean Water Trust (the Trust) is pleased to submit its Clean Water and Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (SRF) Annual Report for State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2016.

The Trust is a collaborative effort between the Office of the State Treasurer, the Executive Office for Administration and Finance, and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP). The Trust’s leveraged financing program maximizes the impact of available funds throughout the Commonwealth. To date, the Trust has used approximately $2.3 billion in federal grants and state matching funds to finance nearly $6.7 billion in clean water and drinking water planning and construction projects.

As our water infrastructure continues to age, there is no better time for municipalities to invest in protecting the health of their citizens and the environment, while simultaneously creating economic development within their communities. In order to achieve these goals, easy access to financing is essential. The Trust continues to do its part by providing subsidized loans backed by its AAA credit.

In SFY 2016, the Trust provided approximately $241 million in commitments for low interest rate loans to cities and towns in the Commonwealth. This commitment amount will support an estimated 1,440 construction and engineering jobs. The financing improves the quality of the state’s waterways and protects public health through such projects as combined sewer overflow removal, wastewater treatment plant upgrades, sewer system construction and rehabilitation, septic system repairs, drinking water treatment facilities, treated water storage and water main replacement and rehabilitation.

This year, in addition to issuing its second Green Bond series, the Trust has taken an active role assisting public schools in eliminating lead in drinking water. The Board of Trustees has authorized $2 million be set aside for testing and technical training for school districts to identify any lead contamination that might exist. Allocating these funds is the first step in ensuring that the drinking water in public schools in Massachusetts is safe for our children. Once results are received the Trust anticipates being part of the solution going forward.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the staff of the Environmental Protection Agency Region 1 for all of their efforts during SFY 2016. I would also like to thank the staff of the Trust and at MassDEP for a job well done. Without the combined efforts of these organizations, these important projects we are doing in the Commonwealth would not be possible.

Finally, I would like to thank our borrowers, the cities and towns. Without their dedication to protecting the environment and public health of their citizens, the program would not be a success.

Thank you and I look forward to continuing this essential work.

Sincerely,

Deborah B. GoldbergChairMassachusetts Clean Water Trustwww.mass.gov/treasury

2016 SRF ANNUAL REPORT | 1

InTRoduCTIonThe Massachusetts Clean Water Trust (the Trust), in partnership with the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) provides cities and towns of the Commonwealth with low interest rate loans for water infrastructure projects. MassDEP manages project development and approval while the Trust manages the flow of money to the communities. Each year, MassDEP prepares the Intended Use Plan (IUP) of projects as required by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This IUP establishes the Commonwealth’s project priorities for the upcoming year. This is accomplished through two programs – the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (SRF) and the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund. The EPA requires reporting on both of the programs through the Clean Water SRF Annual Report and the Drinking Water SRF Biennial Report. These reports have been combined into this report, which covers the State Fiscal Year (SFY) ending June 30, 2016. An estimated 97% of Massachusetts citizens have benefited from these essential projects. In SFY 2016, the Trust provided binding commitments for 36 clean water projects, including the Community Septic Management Program (CSMP), totaling $191 million and 14 drinking water projects totaling $49 million.

The SRF loan program receives funding from the EPA in the form of an annual grant, supplemented by state matching funds and the repayment of loans from borrowers. In addition, the Trust issues bonds guaranteed by pledged assets that are funded by federal and state grants. The Trust’s

lending and bond issuance programs are structured in such a way as to ensure adequate cash flows to fund its loans and to repay its bonds to maturity. The Trust’s bonds are secured by a combination of pledged sources which include loan repayments, contract assistance from the Commonwealth and interest

earnings on debt service reserve funds. The “SRF Financial Summary” section provides additional details on the financial management activities and most recent bond issue of the SRF program.

Since its inception in 1989, the SRF loan program has provided over $6 billion in loans to nearly 300 borrowers to improve and maintain the quality of water in the Commonwealth.

This report covers the State Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2016

2016 SRF ANNUAL REPORT | 2

2016 Clean Water Program ResultsIn 2016, the Trust continued to expand its program by providing new commitments of $191 million in financing for 36 loans to communities across the Commonwealth. Of the 36 loans, 5 were provided to the Community Septic Management Program (CSMP). The CSMP provides low interest financing to Massachusetts’ cities and towns to assist homeowners in the repair of failed septic systems.

Interim Loans The Trust makes funds available to eligible projects on the IUP through its Interim Loan Program year round. Borrowers can enter into a short term loan that enables projects to proceed prior to a Trust bond sale. The Trust is capable of funding a project prior to a bond sale by extending the use of program equity funds as a source of capital. The interest is accrued monthly on the basis of the balance drawn on the construction account. The interest rate is set at one-half of the one year Massachusetts Municipal Depository Trust (MMDT) rate. The average interest rate charged in SFY 2016, accruing only on drawn funds, was 0.13%. During SFY 2016, the Board of Trustees voted to eliminate the interest rate as of April 1, 2016. All interim loans approved from that date on will not accrue interest, making borrowing from the Trust even less expensive. In the SFY, 93 projects had drawn $144.0 million of interim loan funds.

 Extended Term Financing As in previous years, the Trust continues to offer extended term financing up to 30 years to its participants. Extended term financing is available for Clean Water projects that can demonstrate the project’s useful life is at least as long as the term of the loan. The term can be extended to a maximum of thirty years.

DisbursementsDuring 2016, the Trust disbursed $215.7 million for clean water projects to various local governmental entities through the program project funds and interim loans. Of this amount, $3.3 million was disbursed in the form of additional subsidy with repayment not required, to either “Renewable Energy” projects or “Environmental Justice” communities.

Administrative Expenses For SFY 2016, $3.4 million of annual Clean Water SRF grant administration funds were spent by MassDEP. This consisted of $3.2 million in federal funds and $0.2 million in state matching funds. These costs were associated with construction management of the Clean Water SRF program. An additional amount of $3.5 million was spent from the

Massachusetts continues to finance projects that focus on rehabilitation of wastewater infrastructure, which promotes sustainability and smart growth principles. The SRF program provides additional subsidies to designated low-income environmental justice communities, and continues to perform outreach activities to help borrowers realize opportunities to implement energy efficiencies and alternative energy projects.

Trust’s Administrative Fund to supplement MassDEP administrative costs for both the Clean and Drinking Water programs as well as fund the administrative costs of the Trust. Clean Water Trust Chair Treasurer Goldberg, along with Trustees Secretary of Administration and Finance Lepore and MassDEP Commissioner Suuberg, voted to fund a MassDEP-led effort to test for lead and copper contamination in the drinking water of public schools across the Commonwealth. The Board approved $2.0 million to provide technical assistance to train school personnel to identify drinking water sources in their facilities, to collect samples under a specified protocol, and to transport the samples to approved laboratories for analysis. The intent of the survey is to identify at-risk buildings and student populations, and work toward mitigation measures to eliminate the contamination sources.

American Iron and Steel MassDEP has incorporated the American Iron and Steel (AIS) requirements into its Loan Application and Plans and Specifications Package. The necessary language has also been added into the Project Regulatory Agreement and the Financing Agreement. All projects during the reporting period were subject to the AIS requirements because all projects had Plans and Specifications submitted or contracts finalized after the AIS effective date of January 17, 2014.

Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act In compliance with the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA), the Trust reports recipient or sub-recipient awards for any amount equaling $25,000 or greater in the FFATA Sub-award Reporting System (FSRS) at www.fsrs.gov. The loans used by the Trust for FFATA Reporting can be found in the Appendices to this report.

Green Project Reserve For 2014, Congress required that at least 10 % of the federal grant be dedicated to Green Infrastructure (GI) projects or components as defined by USEPA. For Massachusetts, this required that an estimated $4.8 million be allocated towards GI projects. Twelve projects had ‘green’ components that would potentially count toward that goal. Eight of those projects are under construction, with $1.5 million in Green Infrastructure realized thus far.

In 2015, the 10% Green Infrastructure target is $4.6 million. Three projects have proposed GI components with a total value of $52 million. One of those projects, an ‘organics to energy’ facility, is entirely Green, with an estimated project value of $25 million. The 2015 projects are not yet under construction.

Under the Fiscal Year 2016 Omnibus Appropriations Bill, Congress again requires that at least 10% of the federal grant be used to fund GI. For Massachusetts, this requires that an estimated $4.4 million be allocated towards GI projects. For 2016, MassDEP has identified and highlighted 16 new projects with a total value of over $200 million that meet EPA guidelines for Green Infrastructure. Most of these projects are not entirely green; therefore, determining the exact value of the green portions of the project is not yet possible. The total value of green components of those projects will be determined when detailed project applications are submitted. MassDEP expects to meet the minimum $4.4 million that EPA requires be allocated towards Green Infrastructure projects.

Until each construction cycle is completed, the true GI costs cannot be calculated for any one year. Acknowledging that these are Local and not State projects, we stipulate that not all IUP-listed projects go forward and not all projects that propose Green components at the outset end up incorporating GI into the final construction. The final decision on whether to proceed with a project, or whether to pursue green infrastructure elements, rests with the local Borrower. The State has no ability to compel the Local government to accept SRF financing.

Additional Subsidy The Water Resources Reform and Development of 2014 (WRRDA) allowed States to use up to 30% of the 2015 CWSRF grant to enhance the subsidy of loans. Massachusetts chose to apply these funds to communities that meet the Environmental Justice (EJ) income threshold of below 65% of the state’s median household income and for renewable energy projects. This targets the subsidy to lower income communities across the Commonwealth as well as providing subsidy for renewable energy projects that would typically have lengthy payback periods without the subsidy. Massachusetts provides the subsidy to the communities in the form of principal forgiveness. During the

reporting period, Massachusetts provided the subsidy to thirteen clean water projects. Each project received an equivalent of 3.2% of the project cost as additional subsidy. Greater Lawrence received a bonus subsidy in consideration of the proposal being both an environmental justice and renewable energy project.

The funds used as additional subsidy are the first dollars drawn against the project. As of SFY 2016, $0.2 million of the additional subsidy from the 2015 grant has been disbursed. The remaining funds should be disbursed within the next few months. As a follow up to the 2015 Annual Report, all of the additional subsidy funds from the 2014 grant have been fully expended.

2016 SRF ANNUAL REPORT | 5

2016 Clean Water Leveraged Program The Trust program is leveraged by issuing bonds to increase capacity to be able to issue more loans. Federal and state grants are pledged to secure the bonds by either funding reserve funds or pledged direct loans or a combination of both. Since 2002, the Trust has provided loans to communities at a 2% interest rate. As the effective market interest rate on the bonds is higher than the 2% loan rate, borrowers receive a subsidy equal to the difference between the rates. Debt service on the Trust’s SRF bonds is paid from a combination of three sources: borrower loan principal and interest repayments, interest earnings on the debt service reserve funds, and subsidy payments provided by the Commonwealth, known as contract assistance. Further discussion of the Trust’s leveraged financing program can be found in the “The Financial Summary” sections.

Borrower Repayments Each borrower is obligated to repay the principal amount of its loan at a subsidized interest rate of 2% or less. Although those with extended term financing, greater than 20 years, may have a subsidized interest rate somewhat higher than 2%. In SYF 2016, borrower principal and interest loan repayments accounted for approximately 71.5% of debt service, totaling $206.7 million. Since 2012, the Trust has pledged certain direct loans that it makes from its program equity funds as additional security for its series of revenue bonds, rather than utilizing a traditional reserve fund. The interest the Trust receives from the pledged direct loans is used to pay a portion of debt service, while the principal payments received are available as additional security and recycled back to SRF program funds

after debt service obligations have been met. As of June 30, 2016, the Trust has $277.4 million of pledged direct loans outstanding.

Reserve Fund Interest Earnings Reserve funds, or pledged direct loans, are held as security for all Trust bonds at an amount between 33% and 50% of the outstanding principal. As of June 2016, the Trust held $703.8 million in clean water reserve funds invested in guaranteed investment contracts (GIC), and US Treasury and Agency obligations. Earnings on these investments are applied to pay a portion of the debt service on the related series of SRF bonds. In SFY 2016, reserve fund earnings applied to current debt service payments accounted for 12.8% of debt service, totaling $36.9 million. As bonds are repaid, reserve funds are released and returned to the Clean Water Equity Fund. In SFY 2016, $69.7 million was released to the Clean Water Equity Fund, and made available for new loans.

Commonwealth Contract Assistance The Commonwealth has entered into an agreement with the Trust for contract assistance payments to subsidize debt service on the SRF bonds. Contract assistance is appropriated annually in the Commonwealth’s operating budget. To date, the Trust has received $957.6 million in Clean Water contract assistance with a future commitment of $252.5 million, for a total commitment by the Commonwealth of $1.2 billion. In SFY 2016, Commonwealth contract assistance accounted for approximately 15.7% of debt service, totaling $45.2 million in assistance applied.

Clean WaTeR PRojeCTs

Greater Lawrence Sanitary District (GLSD)Organics to energy. $24.88 mm

Massachusetts DEP recently passed a ban on disposing of commercial organic waste material in landfills or at waste incineration facilities. In June 2013, GLSD and consultant CDM Smith developed the Organics to Energy Feasibility Study, outlining a three- phase program of Wastewater Treatment Facility upgrades recommended to achieve co-digestion of organic food waste with the facility’s wastewater sludge.

In October 2014, the GLSD began Phase 1 improvements intended to control digester foaming incidents, thereby allowing the anaerobic sludge digestion operation to be expanded to co-digestion in Phase 2. Phase 2 will include:• Biogas metering system upgrade;• Addition of a waste blending tank and mixing system to facilitate

acceptance of organic material;• Addition of high pressure digester feed pumps to handle organic

material; and• Four to five month pilot testing program for operating co-digestion

system.

Phase 3 will include the installation of additional digester gas storage and combined heat and power (CHP) processes. If successful, GLSD will have the potential to produce enough electricity to virtually remove its reliance on the electrical grid, and the additional gas storage included in Phase 3 will further reduce GLSD’s reliance on natural gas.

The Massachusetts SRF program continues to meet the goals established in the annual IUP. As outlined in the IUP, all SRF projects are subject to the rigorous environmental review procedures of the Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act.The Clean Water SRF provides loans for a wide variety of projects. The primary recipients of Clean Water loans have been combined sewer overflow, wastewater treatment, and wastewater collection projects. Other projects such as drainage improvement, landfill closure, brownfields remediation, renewable energy, and non-point source pollution projects are eligible for financing.

PlymouthEmergency Repairs. $48.2 mm

This project is for emergency sewer forcemain repair and replacement in the Town of Plymouth. In the winter of 2015/2016, catastrophic failure of sewer infrastructure in several locations created a public health emergency requiring immediate action to correct excessive deterioration of the 30 inch ductile iron forcemain. The Town of Plymouth was authorized for $48.2 million

in emergency funding from the Clean Water SRF. Funds are used for emergency response and creation of a bypass system, slipline and replacement of forcemain, and construction of a redundant 24” sewer forcemain.

FalmouthSewer Upgrades. $39.5 mm

The Maravista/Little Pond area of Falmouth has been recommended for sewering since the Town’s 1981 Wastewater Facilities Plan, which was updated in 2001. The 2006 Total Maximum Daily Load Analysis (TMDL) developed under the Massachusetts Estuaries Project recommends 100% sewering of this watershed to achieve the TMDL limits for nitrogen. The area is densely developed, primarily with very small lots, and high groundwater. The Town’s CWMP cites 20% of the properties have septic systems newer than 1995, and a large percentage of those are cesspools. On-site wastewater systems do not effectively remove nitrogen from effluent, and are thus considered to be significant contributors to coastal water degradation. Under this project, sewering will be done in 3 multi-year contracts, encompassing approximately 1500 parcels.Additionally, the project will address the current effluent discharge requirements of the NPDES permit, which the plant cannot currently meet. Facility upgrades and improvements are needed at the plant, primarily to meet the nitrogen limit, which requires an average annual total nitrogen effluent limit of 3.0 mg/L.

2016 Drinking Water Program Results In 2016, the Trust continued to expand its program by providing new commitments of approximately $49.0 million in funding for 14 loans to communities across the Commonwealth.

Interim Loans The Trust makes funds available to eligible projects on the IUP through the Interim Loan Program year round. Borrowers can enter into a short term loan that enables projects to proceed during the time prior to a Trust bond sale. The Trust is capable of funding a project prior to a bond sale by extending the use of program equity funds as a source of capital. The interest is accrued monthly on the basis of the balance drawn on the construction account. The interest rate is set at one-half of the one year Massachusetts Municipal Depository Trust (MMDT) rate. The average interest rate charged in SFY 2016, accruing only on drawn funds, was 0.13%. During SFY 2016, the Board of Trustees voted to eliminate the interest rate as of April 1, 2016. All interim loans approved from that date on will not accrue interest, making borrowing from the Trust even less expensive . In the SFY, 32 projects had drawn $60.7 million of interim loan funds.

Massachusetts continues to support protection of public health by ensuring that all of its public water suppliers have the necessary technical, financial, and managerial capacity to meet the current and foreseeable Safe Drinking Water Act requirements. The program continues to promote the completion of cost-effective projects that maximize protection of public health.

Extended Term Financing In SFY 2016, the Trust was able to offer extended term financing up to 30 years to its participants. The extended term financing is available to any project that can demonstrate a useful life to match the term of the loan. This is the first time in the Drinking Water program’s history that extended term financing has been available and has made financing larger infrastructure projects less burdensome on borrowers.

Disbursements During 2016, the Trust disbursed $107.7 million for drinking water projects to various local governmental entities through the program project funds and interim loans. Of this amount, $2.8 million was disbursed in the form of additional subsidy with repayment not required to either “Renewable Energy” projects or “Environmental Justice” communities.

American Iron and Steel As with the Clean Water Program, MassDEP has incorporated the American Iron and Steel (AIS) requirements into its Loan Application and Plans and Specifications Package.

2016 SRF ANNUAL REPORT | 9

The total DWSRF funds expected to be available for 2016 is $124,221,000. Fifteen percent of that amount is $18,633,150. The Final IUP list contains 5 small system projects totaling $17,208,000, including one Eastham project for $17,114,000. There were an insufficient number of applications from small systems to achieve the 15% goal. MassDEP elevated all of the small systems to the IUP in order to come as close to the goal as possible.

Going forward, the Trust will continue to attempt to comply with the new interpretation of the small systems requirement. The MassDEP Drinking Water program does significant outreach to small systems throughout the Commonwealth through the 2% Small Systems Technical Assistance set aside, which stresses the availability and use of the SRF as a low cost source of financing. Even with these efforts to reach and recruit small systems, the Trust is concerned that in most years, there may not be sufficient applications to make up 15% of the total assistance provided.

Additional Subsidy Massachusetts was required to provide a minimum of $3.2 million in additional subsidy from the 2016 grant. This additional subsidy is provided to communities that would not otherwise be able to afford the project. Massachusetts chose to apply these funds to communities that meet the Environmental Justice (EJ) income threshold of below 65% of the state’s median household income and for renewable energy projects. This targets the subsidy to lower income communities across the Commonwealth as well as providing subsidy for renewable energy projects that would typically have lengthy payback periods without the subsidy. Massachusetts provides the subsidy to the communities in the form of principal forgiveness. During this reporting period, Massachusetts provided the required minimum amount of subsidy to ten drinking water projects. Each project received an equivalent of about 4.3% of the project cost as additional subsidy.

The funds used as additional subsidy are the first dollars drawn against the project. As of SFY 2016, $0.9 million of the additional subsidy from the 2015 grant has been disbursed. The remaining funds should be disbursed within the next few months. As a follow up to 2015 Annual Report, all of the additional subsidy funds from the 2014 grant have been fully expended.

the reporting period were subject to the AIS requirements because all projects had Plans and Specifications submitted or contracts finalized on or after the January 17, 2014 AIS effective date.

Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency ActIn compliance with the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA), the Trust reports recipient or sub-recipient awards for any amount equaling $25,000 or greater in the FFATA Sub-award Reporting System (FSRS) at www.fsrs.gov. The loans used by the Trust for FFATA Reporting can be found in the Appendices to this report.

Small SystemsFor a number of years, the Trust has been providing financing to small systems in the amount of at least 15% of the federal grant, with the concurrence of EPA Region 1. In 2016, EPA changed its interpretation of the small systems requirement from 15% of the federal grant to 15% of the total amount of assistance provided. This change in interpretation has a large effect on the Massachusetts program.

The 2014 IUP was released before the change in interpretation of the small systems requirement. The 2014 IUP listed four projects totaling $3.58 million, which was in excess of 15% of the federal grant. Taking into account the projects on the extended PPL, the total value of all small systems applications was $5.14 million. With a total IUP cost of $126.4 million, the 15% small systems requirement is $18.96 million. Even if every project on the PPL proceeded to construction, the 15% requirement could not be met.

In 2015, MassDEP received small system applications from 7 communities totaling $20.0 million. One large project (Eastham) made up $16.0 million of the request, thus meeting the 15% requirement of $16.0 million by itself. Eastham is establishing a water distribution system for the first time with an overall expected cost of $125 million. The first phase of this project is $45.0 million, to be phased over three years. The Eastham project should provide small system expenditures to help meet the requirement for the next several years.

2016 SRF ANNUAL REPORT | 11

2016 Drinking Water Leveraged Program The Trust program is leveraged by issuing bonds to increase capacity to be able to issue more loans. Federal and state grants are pledged to secure the bonds by either funding reserve funds or pledged direct loans or a combination of both. Since 2002, the Trust has provided loans to communities at a 2% interest rate. As the interest rate on the bonds is higher than the 2% loan rate, borrowers receive a subsidy equal to the difference between the rates. Debt service on the Trust’s SRF bonds is paid from a combination of three sources: borrower loan principal and interest repayments, interest earnings on the debt service reserve funds, and subsidy payments provided by the Commonwealth, known as contract assistance.

Borrower Repayments Each borrower is obligated to repay the principal amount of its loan at a subsidized interest rate of 2% or less. The newly implemented extended term borrowing has a subsidized interest rate above 2% based upon market rates at the time of financing. In SFY 2016, borrower principal and interest loan repayments accounted for approximately 79.0% of debt service, totaling $70.1 million. Since 2012, the Trust has pledged certain direct loans that it makes from its program equity funds as additional security for its series of revenue bonds, rather than utilizing a traditional reserve fund. The interest the Trust receives from the pledged direct loans is used to pay a portion of debt service, while the principal payments received are available as additional security and recycled back to SRF program funds after debt service obligations have been met. As of June 30, 2016, the Trust has $117.4 million of pledged direct loans outstanding.

Reserve Fund Interest Earnings Reserve funds, or pledged direct loans, are held as security for all Trust bonds at an amount between 33% and 50% of the outstanding principal. As of June 2016, the Trust held $160.8 million in drinking water reserve funds invested in guaranteed investment contracts and US Treasury and Agency obligations. Earnings on these investments are applied to pay a portion of the debt service on the related series of SRF bonds. In SFY 2016 reserve fund earnings applied to current debt service payments accounted for 9.9% of debt service, totaling $8.7 million. As bonds are repaid, reserve funds are released and returned to the Drinking Water Equity Fund. In SFY 2016, $22.5 million was released to the Drinking Water Equity Fund, and made available to be applied to new loans.

Commonwealth Contract AssistanceThe Commonwealth has entered into an agreement with the Trust for contract assistance payment to subsidize debt service on the SRF bonds. Contract assistance is appropriated annually in the Commonwealth’s budget. To date, the Trust has received $136.8 million in drinking water contract assistance with a future commitment of $70.7 million, for a total commitment by the Commonwealth of $207.5 million. In SFY 2016, Commonwealth contract assistance accounted for approximately 11.1% of debt service, totaling $9.8 million in assistance applied.

supervision and other drinking water program activities. Some highlights of the programs in SFY 2016 include: Sanitary Survey Program – MassDEP Drinking Water staff is responsible for evaluating the technical, financial and managerial capability of Community, Non-Transient Non-Community and Transient Non-Community PWS. During the last year the drinking water staff has completed 370 evaluations on existing systems. See Figure 1 below for breakdown of system types.

Operator Certification - MassDEP has a very active operator certification program. The program activities have been integrated into daily staff activities. Program activities range from chairing the Board of Certification of Drinking Water Operators to providing general and specialized training of, and guidance for, drinking water operators at all levels.

Wellhead Protection Program – Technical assistance was provided to water supply systems for wellhead protection compliance, the development of protection plans, and for determining monitoring waiver eligibility.

Capacity Development - During the course of conducting sanitary surveys on public water systems, DEP staff identified 1,165 technical, financial, or managerial deficiencies and provided corrective action assistance to ensure compliance. MassDEP’s Capacity Development strategy focuses on improving the technical, financial, and managerial operations of both new and existing public water systems in the Commonwealth.

Drinking Water Set-Asides MassDEP continues to use set-aside funds as outlined in the annual IUP. The following sections describe the basic programs and accomplishments.

4% Set-Aside: Administration MassDEP uses eight (8) full time equivalent (FTE) staff members to administer the Drinking Water SRF program. These FTEs utilize 4% set-aside funding to accomplish the following tasks: developing program selection criteria, application ranking and rating, project development, construction inspections, invoice payment, data management and administrative support functions.

2% Set-Aside: Small System Technical Assistance Municipal Services Support - MassDEP uses two (2) FTEs to support Municipal Services. These FTEs provide training and technical assistance (compliance and operational issues) to small systems throughout Massachusetts. During the past year, MassDEP also worked with outside training and technical assistance providers. The Massachusetts Rural Water Association, United States Department of Agriculture (Rural Development), and US EPA Environmental Finance Center also provided training to public water suppliers.

Contract Services - MassDEP signed an Inter-Agency Service Agreement (ISA) with the University of Massachusetts – Amherst. The ISA required UMass to provide Technical Assistance and Training and Outreach on a variety of topics including (but not limited to): Very Small System Operator Training, Opening and Closing a Seasonal System, Total Coliform Rule (RTCR), Manganese, Annual Statistical Reporting and Regulatory Updates, pump and motor maintenance, rate setting, board training, public relations, disinfection, sampling and exam review. The ISA also included funding from the 15% set-aside.

The Massachusetts Drinking Water SRF program continues to meet the goals established in the annual IUP. As outlined in the IUP, all SRF projects are subject to the rigorous environmental review procedures of the Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act. Drinking Water projects typically involve construction and/or rehabilitation of drinking water treatment plants, replacement of aging water mains, and construction of drinking water storage facilities.

Bellingham Water Treatment FacilitiesWater Treatment Facility. $14.2mm

This $14.0 million project includes the construction of a new water treatment plant at Wrentham Road, improvements to the existing Harford Ave Water Treatment Plant, and new transmission mains for connecting wells to the treatment facilities. The project will increase the overall quality of the town’s water supply by providing required disinfection, compliance with the Groundwater Rule and removal of manganese and iron that is present in existing source water.

Auburn Water DistrictWater Treatment Facility Upgrades. $2.7mm

This $2.7 million project addresses elevated levels of iron, manganese and arsenic in the source water. Arsenic levels in 2 wells exceed the MCL of 0.010 mg/L, and iron and manganese levels are above SCMLs. In 2012, samples from the West Street Wells (combined water) were 0.021 mg/L. These wells were taken off line in May 2013 until arsenic removal upgrades can be completed. The District is using pressure filtration and polyphosphate addition to sequester the metals, treating approximately 1.5 mgd.

2016 SRF ANNUAL REPORT | 15

Falmouth Long Pond WTPEnhanced Water Treatment. $42.2mm

The construction of the new treatment facility for Long Pond is a $42.2 million undertaking. The Town of Falmouth currently relies on Long Pond for 50 to 60% of its water supply needs. The Long Pond Water Treatment Facility (WTF) operates under a filtration waiver and only provides chlorination and pH adjustment. Increasing algae blooms in Long Pond and organic loading from the surrounding forest are resulting in degraded water quality. The Town also has an extension to install a second disinfection method to comply with Long Term 2 (LT2) of the EPA’s Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule. The Town has also exceeded a trihalomethane (THM) limit under the Disinfection By-Products Rule. The Town must invest significant money to comply with LT2, which will still not solve its THM problems. A proper surface water treatment facility is required to provide a long term solution to the Town’s water quality problems.

Leveraged Financing ModelThe Trust’s SRF loan program receives funding from the EPA in the form of an annual grant, supplemented by state matching grants and the repayment of funds from previous borrowers (“SRF Program Funds”). The Trust’s SRF Program utilizes a “leveraged” financing model, under which federal grants and state matching grants are used as a source of security for revenue bonds (“SRF Bonds”) issued by the Trust. The proceeds from the SRF bonds are used to fund loans to local governmental units for eligible project costs.

The leveraged structure of the Trust’s program permits the Commonwealth to substantially increase the amounts available to fund eligible project costs. Each federal grant and associated state matching grant dollar contributed to the program results in at least two to three dollars of project cost financing while assuring the perpetual nature of the revolving fund.

The Trust’s lending and bond issuance programs are structured in such a way as to ensure adequate cash flows to fund its loans and to repay its bonds to maturity. Depending on the type of projects being financed, the terms of the loans to borrowers, and the subsidy levels to which the borrowers are entitled, the Trust applies its SRF Program Funds to fund either direct loans to local governmental units or, invest in reserve funds, or a combination of both, which are then pledged as a source of payment and security for the SRF Bonds.

Pledged Direct LoansUnder the pledged direct loan approach, the Trust pledges as additional security for a series of its SRF Bonds, direct loans (“Pledged Direct Loans”) that it has made or is making concurrently with the issuance of such SRF Bonds from its SRF Program Funds to eligible borrowers for water pollution abatement and drinking water projects. The Trust applies the interest payments on such Pledged Direct Loans to pay a portion of the debt service on the related series of SRF Bonds, thereby supplementing the loan repayment obligations of the borrowers of the Leveraged Loans funded by such SRF Bonds. Principal payments on the Pledged Direct Loans are pledged as further security for the related series of SRF Bonds. The Trust used the Pledged Direct Loan approach for its Series 19 SRF Bonds. The bonds are the fourth series of Trust SRF Bonds issued under the Pledged Direct Loan approach. As of June 30, 2016, the Trust has $394.8 million in Pledged Direct Loans.

The following discussion provides additional details on the financing management activities of the SRF loan program.

2016 SRF ANNUAL REPORT | 17

Reserve FundsIn the past, the Trust has applied a portion of its Program Equity Funds to establish reserve funds to secure a series of its SRF Bonds. Those investment earnings are then applied to pay a portion of the debt service on the related SRF Bonds, thereby supplementing the loan repayment obligation of the borrowers of the Leveraged Loans funded by such SRF Bonds. As of June 30, 2016, the Trust has $864.6 million in DSRF reserve funds invested in guaranteed investment contracts (GIC) and US Treasury and Agency Obligations.

SRF Bonds Sources of RepaymentPrincipal and interest payments on the Trust’s SRF Bonds are made from the following sources: (1) loan repayments from borrowers; (2) earnings on the federal grants and state matching grants pledged as security to the SRF Bonds, including, as applicable, interest earning on reserve funds and interest payments on direct loans pledged to secure such bonds; and (3) subsidy payments provided by the Commonwealth, known as contract assistance.

Commonwealth Contract Assistance PaymentsThe Commonwealth makes assistance payments on behalf of certain Loans to borrowers to be used to pay a portion of debt service on the related series of the Trust’s SRF Bonds, and thereby reduced the borrower’s loan repayment obligation. The obligation of the Commonwealth to make such payments to the Trust is a general obligation of the Commonwealth, for which its full faith and credit are pledged.

The Commonwealth has pledged over $329.3 million in current and future assistance payments on behalf of

program borrowers. The Commonwealth is currently rated “AA+/Aa1/AA+”.

2016 SRF ANNUAL REPORT | 18

Deallocation of FundsFor all bond series issued prior to Series 18, on each date that the Trust pays down the principal amount of a series of SRF Bonds, or borrowers pay down the principal amount of the related pledged loans, the amount held in the related reserve fund is reduced proportionately, and the amounts released from each reserve fund are transferred either to the Pool Program Reserve Fund and then to the Deficiency Fund or directly to the Deficiency Fund and are available to cure shortfalls in any bond series. If not needed to cure a shortfall, the released funds are transferred to the Program Equity Funds which assures the perpetual nature of the revolving fund.

Beginning with Series 18, bonds are governed by the new Master Trust Agreement (MTA). The MTA simplifies the flow and deallocation of funds. As depicted on the chart above, the MTA deallocates funds in the same method as prior bond series but when the funds release they flow directly to the Program Equity Fund. The Program Equity Fund is then available to cure shortfalls in all bond series governed by the MTA and prior bond series. Once it has been determined there no shortfalls, the funds are then available to be disbursed to new loans, thus assuring the perpetual nature of the revolving fund.

Series 19 Green BondsOn February 11, 2016, the Trust issued $207.8 million in Green Bonds to fund 62 loans to 42 unique borrowers which was secured by 8 pledged direct loans totaling $94.8 million to an additional 8 borrowers. The Trust was able to borrow these funds at the true interest cost of 2.67% due to its AAA rating by all three rating agencies and the credit strength of its borrowers. The bond offering was the Trust’s second Green Bond series. In the Appendix to the Annual Report the Trust is providing an update to the Green Bond Disclosures for both the Series 18 and19 Official Statements as to the use of Green Bond proceeds. The Trust will continue to report on the use of proceeds until the full amount has been expended.
