Wastewater effluent was not considered a valuable resource, but a product that required disposal. A logical alternative at the time was to use the water for farming purposes. This practice began in the 1930s when the City piped treated wastewater effluent to a local, privately -operated farm. In the late 1980s the City began purchasing and taking over the farming operations in order to improve land application practices, farming operations, and groundwater management. Currently, the City is permitted to land apply a portion of its treated wastewater effluent from the Southeast Water Reclamation Plant (SEWRP) to about 8,500 acres of City -owned land and approximately 1,100 acres of privately -owned land. The SEWRP currently provides secondary, but not tertiary, treatment. The Lubbock Land Application Site (LLAS), which is located east of the City, makes up about 5,100 of the City -owned acres. The long-term application of wastewater effluent on this site has resulted in a "mound" of groundwater under the LLAS (i.e., the water table of the underlying Ogallala Aquifer is higher under the LLAS than in the surrounding area). The City developed the Canyon Lake System over 20 years ago (a.k.a., the Jim Bertram Lake System). The Lake System is a series of small recreational lakes in Yellowhouse Canyon that follow the stream bed of the North Fork of the Double Mountain Fork of the Brazos River (North Fork). The City began pumping "excess" groundwater from the LLAS to the head of the Canyon Lake System in order to lower the mound of groundwater. This step has been taken to reduce nitrate levels in the groundwater and to reduce the susceptibility of further groundwater contamination by its close proximity to the surface. In the late 1980s the City also developed Lake Alan Henry on the South Fork of the Double Mountain Fork of the Brazos River (South Fork). Lake Alan Henry was also developed in the canyon areas of the South Fork about 65 miles southeast of the City. This Lake was developed as part of a plan for future water supplies. The head of the South Fork is located approximately 20 to 30 miles south of the Hancock Land Application Site (HLAS), which is the second land application site owned and operated by the City. By the late 1990s the City initiated an effort to reduce the amount of treated wastewater effluent that was going to the land application sites. Up to 40% of the effluent began to be treated to a higher quality and discharged down stream of the Canyon Lake System. Currently the City recognizes that highly treated wastewater effluent is a valuable resource, and that land application disposal is not the best use of this water. The water may be beneficial to the canyon lakes in both the North Fork and the South Fork. -1- City of Lubbock Canyon Lakes Water Reuse Project PROJECT WORK PLAN Attachment A presents a schematic of the existing effluent disposal and reuse transmission system, the location of the SEWRP, and the North Fork. A few third party users (such as golf courses and recreational parks) have direct service taps on this groundwater transmission line to take water for irrigation purposes. The "recycled" groundwater is used to establish a continuous flow of water in the Canyon Lakes System. However, this groundwater pumped from beneath the LLAS has elevated nitrate concentrations, not uncommon in treated wastewater effluent. Nitrate levels are reduced and other nutrients are removed from the groundwater as it flows through the Canyon Lake System, but the groundwater does not contribute to overall water quality until the Canyon Lake System has naturally removed the nutrients. To improve ground and river water quality and to enable reuse opportunities, the City is designing improvements to the SEWRP. The SEWRP will produce a high quality wastewater effluent that could be reused via transmission to the North Fork and the South Fork to improve the water quantity and quality in area lakes. The City is currently under contract with a consulting firm to design process modifications and improvements to the existing SEWRP that would allow the plant to meet high quality treatment standards required for stream discharge and reuse. Construction of the SEWRP modifications is expected to begin in early 2008 and be complete by late 2011. In conjunction with the SEWRP improvements, the City must also evaluate the effect of the SEWRP effluent on the area lakes, determine the volume and quality of water that can safely be discharged, determine the optimal discharge points, and begin designing and constructing the infrastructure necessary for discharging effluent from the SEWRP to the area canyon lakes. These steps will take the City closer to the reuse opportunity. These tasks will be performed as part of the Canyon Lakes Reuse Project proposed herein. -2- 31ILI = • rpl� � A ei �► �• �iiiti' �-r _ I ON IS 0111, �ry�u 1� ••• _ t L i ��- - •• -� �a►�� i C■J u�w G([I►.11 1,-.:..: wn,rr u; u1 mil/.

The Texas High Plains was once completely reliant upon the Ogallala Aquifer. However, with the Ogallala Aquifer storage depleting, the City of Lubbock and the surrounding region are seeking to identify and develop alternative water sources as well as water conservation measures to reduce groundwater usage from the Ogallala Aquifer. The City has land applied its treated wastewater effluent to irrigation fields since the 1930s. Prolonged use of land application sites has resulted in an elevated water table creating a "mound" of groundwater beneath both sites. To reduce the elevation of the water table below the LLAS, the City began pumping this groundwater to the northern end of the Canyon Lakes System along the North Fork to replenish the system. The presence of nitrate concentrations from the "recycled" groundwater from the LLAS impacts water quality in the Canyon Lakes System and surrounding areas. Therefore, the City has committed to take new measures by producing a high quality wastewater effluent that can be used for stream discharge, which will: (1) improve the water quality of the Canyon Lakes System, (2) maintain influent flow into the Canyon Lakes System, (3) minimize groundwater quality issues of the sensitive Ogallala Aquifer from the land application sites, (4) reduce groundwater pumpage from the Ogallala Aquifer in order to supply water to the Canyon Lake System, and (5) provide additional long term water supply alternatives for the City. -3- City of Lubbock Canyon Lakes Water Reuse Project PROJECT WORK PLAN The City is proposing to use the referenced grant and matching funds for engineering services and construction of infrastructure from the SEWRP to the Canyon Lakes System as part of the proposed Canyon Lakes Water Reuse Project.

Subsequent projects will be funded through additional federal grants and/or the City's general budget for capital SM City of Lubbock Canyon Lakes Water Reuse Project PROJECT WORK PLAN improvement expenditures to complete the remaining phases of the Canyon Lakes Water Reuse System. -10- City of Lubbock Canyon Lakes Water Reuse Project PROJECT WORK PLAN The proposed Canyon Lakes Water Reuse Project has several potential environmental benefits. First, reuse of high quality effluent from the SEWRP to the Canyon Lakes System will improve the water quality of the Canyon Lakes System and will maintain a constant influent flow into the Canyon Lakes System. Secondly, the high quality effluent will also help improve groundwater quality by reducing the nitrate levels in the water pumped to the Canyon Lake system that seeps down into the aquifer. Finally, the proposed project provides a long-term alternative supply of high quality water that can be used for irrigation and similar purposes, thus reducing the volume of groundwater pump age from the Ogallala Aquifer. The high quality effluent from the SEWRP will help reduce nitrate levels at the Land Application Sites. In Phase I of this project, the Engineer will prepare a PER to document the results of the alternative analyses and include recommendations for final design. The PER will describe, in detail, the environmental impacts of construction as well as the public health and environmental benefits for each alternative considered. The recommendations presented in the Preliminary Engineering Report will be the most economically feasible alternative that provides the greatest long-term benefit to public health and the environment. In addition, the City will prepare an Environmental Information Document in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requirements for Special Appropriation Projects and will coordinate will all relevant regulatory agencies to minimize adverse effects of the proposed project. -11- City of Lubbock Canyon Lakes Water Reuse Project PROJECT WORK PLAN The total proposed budget for the Lake Alan Henry Water Transmission and Treatment System Preliminary Engineering Study is $1,399,637. This project will be partially funded through an EPA Special Projects grant, which the City was awarded under the Consolidation Appropriations Act, 2005. The EPA Special Projects grant has a value of $769,800 and was awarded for the "Canyon Lake Water Reuse Project in Lubbock, Texas, for construction -related costs associated with water system infrastructure." The EPA Special Projects grant requires the grant recipient to provide a 45% match of the total project cost. The City is committed to meeting this 45% match requirement of $629,837. A breakdown of the funding sources for the proposed project is provided below: Grant/Funding EPA Special Projects Grant Percent of Total Total Cost $769,800 55% City of Lubbock Matching Funds $629,637 45% TOTAL PROPOSED PROJECT COST $1,399,637 100.0% The proposed $1,399,637 will be used to contract an Engineer to perform preliminary engineering and conceptual design, final engineering design, and construction phase services and to contract a Construction Contractor to construct Package I of the Canyon Lakes Water Reuse Project. The estimated budget for each of these contractual obligations is listed below. ENGINEERING CONTRACT Phase I- Preliminary Engineering and Conceptual Design $365,000 Phase II - Engineering Design and Bid Phase Services $124,156 Phase III - Construction Phase Services $51,732 Subtotal Engineering Contract $540,888 CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT Construction of Canyon Lakes Water Reuse Project, Package I $858,749 Subtotal Construction Contract $858,749 TOTAL PROPOSED PROJECT BUDGET $1,399,637 -12- City of Lubbock Canyon Lakes Water Reuse Project PROJECT WORK PLAN As mentioned previously, the Applicant acknowledges that the grant funds assigned for construction -related costs may not be sufficient to allow construction of the entire Canyon Lakes Water Reuse System recommended in the Preliminary Engineering Report.
