16.5 In addition to the cost sharing allocations set forth in this paragraph, each Member Agency shall continue to pay its share of LAVWMA's annual operating budget as set forth in paragraph 23. 16.6 Project cost sharing in any future facilities, as provided in paragraph 18, shall be allocated in proportion to each Member Agency's capacity in the additional facilities. Paragrraph 17. Coordinated Operation. The Member Agencies will operate all treatment and disposal facilities in the LAVWMA Service Area, including storage ponds and reverse osmosis facilities, in a coordinated manner to minimize the risk of a LAVWMA overflow. Paragraph 18. Future Facilities. 18.1 When an individual Member Agency reaches 75% of its PWWF allo- cated capacity set forth in paragraph 15.2 and at the overflow frequency established by the Regional Water Quality Control Board ("RWQCB"), the Member Agencies agree to cooperate in identifying and implement- ing or allowing implementation of additional facilities, such as storage, stream discharge or chain of lakes discharge, to provide additional PWWF capacity. 18.2 The Member Agencies also recognize that, over time, the likelihood of interruption by. EBDA is expected to increase and will require future planning and additional facilities as described herein for an alternate means of PWWF disposal during interruption by EBDA. 18.3 If proposed facilities include additional export pipeline capacity, unani- mous approval of the LAVWMA Board is required including, where a Member Agency so provides, an affirmative vote of its voters. Paragrra-ph 19. Citv Participation in Project. 19.1 After the LAVWMA Board approves the Project, the cities of Pleasanton and Livermore will take question of participation in the Project to their respective voters at the earliest possible date. It is anticipated that such a vote will occur no later than November 1998. If an election cannot be held by that date because the LAVWMA Board is unable to take action on the Project in sufficient time to allow the cities to place the matter o n the ballot, the matter will be placed on the ballot no later than the next established election date following approval of the Project. Except as provided in paragraph 19.2, no Member Agency shall proceed with the Project until after the cities have had an opportunity to take the question of participation in the Project to their voters.
