Customer shall not have any responsibility or liability now or ever for the operation of the Lubbock
System, except as otherwise provided herein.
2.4 METERING AND SAMPLING
Customer shall be responsible for providing metering, if required by Lubbock, and sampling
facilities at the point of entry in accordance with the Lubbock Code of Ordinances, Sec 22.04.212,
as may be amended from time to time.
All wastewater flow discharged into the Lubbock System by Customer shall be measured by using
the amount of potable water flowing through the Customer's potable metering device at the Point
of Delivery under the terms and conditions of the Wholesale Water Sales Contract between
Lubbock and the Customer. Should both parties agree in writing that additional meters or alternate
methods are necessary to accurately quantify the wastewater volumes discharged, the agreed upon
method shall be used for determining the wastewater volume. The City Council of Lubbock hereby
delegates the authority to approve such alternative flow measurement to the City Manager of
Lubbock, or his or designee. The Customer and Lubbock may agree to differing methods of
volume determination for each point of entry.
7
COL # 13587
TDO # 696-FD-18-22-U134
All readings of the meter will be maintained by Customer. Lubbock shall have access to such
records during reasonable business hours and shall be furnished with monthly totalizer reading for
the point of entry metering and sampling facility.
Customer shall calibrate and routinely service the meter not less than once during every one (1)
year period. Copies of the results of such calibration and all related information shall be provided
to Lubbock. Customer shall notify Lubbock at least seventy-two (72) hours in advance of the date
and time for any calibration and Lubbock may observe, if so desired.
Upon any calibration, if it is determined that the accuracy envelope of such meter is found to be
lower than ninety-five percent (95%) or higher than one hundred five percent (105%) expressed
as a percentage of the full scale of the meter, the registration of the flow as determined by such
inaccuracy began, if such time is ascertainable; or, if such time is not ascertainable, then for a
period extending back one-half 1 /2) of the time elapsed since the date of the last calibration, but
in no event further back than a period of six (6) months.
If any meter used to determine volume from Customer is out of service or out of repair so that the
amount of wastewater metered cannot be ascertained or computed from the reading thereof, the
wastewater delivered through the period such meter is out of service or out of repair shall be
estimated and agreed upon by the parties hereto upon the basis of the best data available. This
basis for estimating such flow includes, but is not limited to, extrapolation of past patterns of flow
for said metering station under similar conditions.
Lubbock may periodically determine the quality of the wastewater at the metering and sampling
facilities or other agreed upon sampling points for the purpose of billing for the strength of the
wastewater and relating to compliance with pre-treatment requirements. To determine the quality
of the wastewater, in the event Lubbock desires to conduct sampling activities, Lubbock shall
collect twenty-four (24) hour composite samples or other sampling methods as deemed necessary
or advisable by Lubbock. If, at the request of Customer or at the request of the Director, more
Eta
COL # 13587 -

extensive monitoring is desired, such additional monitoring shall be paid for by the party making
the request and shall be done in compliance with Paragraph 2.5.
Lubbock shall analyze the samples collected in accordance with standard methods. Customer may
be present during the initial setup of sampling equipment and at the time of pickup for the sample.
Lubbock agrees, if requested, to split said wastewater samples with Customer.
If in the opinion of the Director, compliance monitoring is required, the Director may order the
additional monitoring be performed with or without prior notice to Customer.
Wastewater sampling costs incurred by Lubbock under this section will be the expense of
Lubbock.
2.5 BILLING PROCEDURES
Wastewater rates to be paid shall be set forth in Section 22.04.041 of the Lubbock Code of
Ordinances, as may be amended from time to time.

provided since the prior billing period. Past -due shall be the total amount unpaid from all prior
billings as of the current billing date. Payments received by Lubbock shall first be applied to the
past -due charges, if any, and thereafter to the current charges.
