IIIOf ME flkl --� Members of Idaho Society of Cerlified Public Accountunls Members ofAmerican InstbWe of Cenifed Public Accountanu INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT To the Board of Directors Chubbuck Impact Area Wastewater Collection Authority Chubbuck, Idaho Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the business -type activities, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Chubbuck Impact Area Wastewater Collection Authority, component unit of City of Chubbuck as of and for the year ended September 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Authority's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor's Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the business -type activities, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Chubbuck Impact Area Wastewater Collection Authority, as of September 30, 2016, and the respective changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Management has omitted the management's discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information. Other Information We also have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the Authority's basis financial statements of the year ended September 30, 2015, which are not presented with the accompanying financial statement and we expressed unmodified opinions on the respective financial statements of the governmental active, and the aggregate remaining fund information. That audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Chubbuck Impact Area Wastewater Collection Authority's basic financial statements as a whole. The summarized comparative information is consistent, in all material respects, with the audited financial statements form which it has been derived. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated April 10, 2017, on our consideration of the Authority's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Authority's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

The purpose of the Authority is to acquire, construct, own, operate, and maintain the Facility, and to provide wastewater transmission and disposal services. NOTE 1 - Summary of Sicnificant Accounting Policies A. Reporting Entity For financial reporting purposes, management has considered potential component units. The decision to include a potential component unit in the reporting entity is made by applying the criteria set forth in generally accepted accounting principles. The basic criterion for including a potential component unit within the reporting entity is the governing body's responsibility for financial accountability. Financial accountability is defined as the level of accountability that exists if a primary government appoints a voting majority of an organization's governing board and is either able to impose its will on that organization or there is potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on, the primary government. A primary government may also be financially accountable for governmental organizations that are fiscally dependent on it. Based upon the application of these criteria, the Authority has no potential component units. Under generally accepted accounting principles, as adopted by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, the Authority is included in the Annual Financial Statements of the City of Chubbuck as a blended component unit. B. Fund Accounting The Authority uses funds to report its financial position and the results of its operations. Fund accounting is designed to demonstrate legal compliance and to aid financial management by segregating transactions related to certain government functions or activities. A fund is a separate accounting entity with a self -balancing set of accounts. The Operating Fund is used to account for all business type transactions in a manner similar to commercial enterprises. C. Basis of Accounting The accrual basis of accounting is used. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (Le,, when they become both measurable and available). "Measurable' means the amount of the transaction can be determined and "available' means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. The Authority considers assessments as available when they are assessed. A one-year availability period is used for revenue recognition. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred. D. Reclassification Various account balances were reclassified during the year, as previously reported. These reclassifications were required for the comparability to the curent year's financial statements and must be considered when comparing the financial statements of this report with those of prior reports. E. Restricted Resources t is the Authority's policy to first apply restricted resources when an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net positon is available.

Deaton & Company, Chartered Certified Public Accountants,a — 215 North 9th, Suite A - Pocatello, Idaho 83201-5278 (208)232-5825 _ PINT - Members of Idaho Society of Certified Public Acconnlants Members of American Institute of Certified Public Accountants INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS To the Board of Commissioners Chubbuck Impact Area Wastewater Collection Authority Chubbuck, Idaho We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standardsd issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities and each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Chubbuck Impact Area Wastewater Collection Authority, as of and for the years ended September 302 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise Chubbuck Impact Area Wastewater Collection Authority's basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated April 10, 2017. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit, we considered Chubbuck Impact Area Wastewater Collection Authority's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Chubbuck Impact Area Wastewater Collection Authority's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Chubbuck Impact Area Wastewater Collection Authority's internal control over financial reporting. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Authority's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity's internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.
