Udllty Profile and water Conservation Plan Requirements for Munlclpal water Use by Reta II Public Water Suppliers

Letter to Resfon C Water Plannlnt Group

Ordinanw ~Ing Water Conservation Plan

1. INTRODUCl'ION AND OBJECTIVES

Havlns a dependable water supply has always been a key Issue in the development ofTexas. The growing population and economic expansion occurring In North Central Texas are placlng Increased demands on our water supplies. In order to meet the challenge of providing for our current and future needs, we must learn to use the waterwe already have more efficiently. By stretching our existing supplies, we can delay the need for new supplies, minimize the environmental Impacts associated with developlng new water resources, and postpone the high cost of building the Infrastructure {dams, treatment facllltfes, and pipelines) necessary to capture, treat, and transport the additional water Into our homes and businesses.

Recognizing the need for efficient use of existing water supplies, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ} has developed guidelines and requirements governing the development of water conservation plans for public water suppliers. TCEQguidelines and requirements are Included in the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, Chapter 288 - Water Conservation Plans, Drought Contingency Plans, Guidelines and Requirements document. The Tarrant Regional Water District (TRWD) has also developed this model water conservation plan for Its direct and indirect customers following TCEQ guidelines and requirements. An Indirect customer refers to any successive wholesale customers of TRWD's primary customers.

The objectives of this water conservation plan are as follows:

• To reduce water consumption from the levels that would prevail without oonservation efforts. To reduce the loss and waste of water.

• To improve efficiency in the use of water.• To Encourage efficient outdoor water use.• To document the level of recycling and reuse in the water supply.• To extend the life of current water supplies by reducing the rate of growth In demand.

Specific objectives achieved in this document are:

• Completion of the Utility Profile for Retail Water Suppliers (AppendiK B).• Set five-and ten-year goals for per capita water use.• Adoptordlnance approvlngthemodelplan.

2. TEXAS COMMISSION ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY RULES

The TCEQ rules governilgdevelopment of water conservation plans for public water suppliers are contained In Title 30, Part 1,Chapter 288, Subchapter A, Ru I e 288.2 of the Texas Administrative Code. For the purpose of these rules, a water conservation plan Is defined as "A strategy or combination ofstrategies for reducing the volume of water withdrawn from a water supply source, for reducing the lossorwaste of water, for maintalnlngo~ improvfngthe efficiency In the use of water, for lncreaslngthe recycling and reuse of water, and for preventing the pollutlon ofwater!' The elements In the TCEQ water conservation rules covered In this conservation plan are listed below. ·

WATER UTIU'IY PROFILEPresented below isa description and service area map of the City of Aledo public water system. lnaddltlon,Appendlx Btothlswater conservation plan Isa completed Utility P roflle for Retail Water Suppliers based on the format recommended by the TCEQ. lhe data in the report will be based on the Aledo pub&c water system's water use during the previous calendar year.

Description:

The Oty of Aledo Water System (Public Water System ID 1840001) currently serves more than 4,240 customers In 2019. The City of Aledo purchased over 137 mllion gallons of treated water from the City of FortWorth In 2018. Aledo also provides water to Its customers through three (3) active ground wells. All other wells are In emergency status and re11lstered through TCEQ. The total amount of ground water provided to Aledo's customers In 2018 was 52 million gallons. The blending of these two systems provides Aledo residents with water through the City­ owned and maintained water distribution system. The water system's customer base Is approximately ninety-three percent residential, and the remaining seven percent are commerclal/lndustrfal customers. Through this system, Aledo has the capability to provide the necessary water to Its customers, to provide for flre protection, and to provide for the growing needs of the community. The following graphic isa map of the City of Aledo water system service area.

4. SPECIFICATION OF WATER CONSERVATION GOAlS

Current TCEQ rules require the adoption of speciflc water conservation goals for a water conservation plan. As part of plan adoption, each customer will develop 5-year and 10-year goals for per capita municipal use, following TCEQ procedures described in the Utility P roflle for Retail Water Suppliers (Appendix B). The goals for thiS water conservation plan includethe following:

• Keep the per capita municipal water use below the specified amount In gallonsper capita per day In a dry year.

• Keep the level of unaccounted water in the system below 12% annually in 2019 and subsequent years. In 2018, unaccounted water was at 2.53%. This was a 1.18% decrease from 3.71% in 2017.

• Implement and maintain a program of universal metering and meter replacement and repair.

• Decrease waste in lawn irrigation through public education and enforcement of the City of Aledo Drought Contingency & Emergency Water Management Plan.

3

• Raise publi: awareness of water conservation ilnd encourage responsible public behavior with a public eduCiltion and information program.

• Develop a system specific strategy to conserve water during peak demands, thereby reducing the peak use.

5. MmRING, WATER USE RECORDS, CONTROL OF UNACCOUNTED WATER, AND LEAK DETECTION AND REPAIR

One of the key elements In water conservation is careful tracking of water use and control of losses through illegal diversions and leaks. Careful metering of water deliveries and water use, detection and repair of leaks In the distribution system and regular monitoring of unaccounted water are Important In controlllng losses.

5.1 Accurate Metering of Treated Water Deliveries to the City of Aledo

Water deliveries from the City of Fort Worth are metered by Fort Worth using meters with accuracy of at least :t5%. Fort Worth can access the meters at all reasonable times, and meters are calibrated to maintain the required accuracy. Water deliveries from the City's ground water wells are also metered. City Staff reads and calibrates these meters on a regular basis.

s.z Metering of customer and Public uses and Meter Testing, Repair, and Replacement

The Oty of Aledo meters all connections to the publlc water system.

All connections to the water system are metered connections. All meters wlll be maintained within acceptable operating accuracy range as defined by the manufacturer or AWWA Standard for meter accuracy, whichever Is more stringent. Dead meters and meters that indicate reduced usage wlll be checked, field tested, and replaced when found to be out of manufacturer specifications or not meeting AWWA standards.

Meters 3" and larger will be tested every year. Meters 11/2" to 2a will be tested every threeyears and all meters smaller than 11/2" will be tested every ten years. Water meters will also be tested for accuracy as requested by customers and as part of internal water audits.

5.3 Record Management System

As required by TAC Title 30, Part 1, Chapter 288, Subchapter A, Rule 288.2(a)(2){B), the City of Aledo will maintain a records management system that allows for the separation of watersales and uses into residential, commercial, public/institutional, and industrial categories. ThisInformation will be included In an annual water conservation report, as described in Section5.6

SA Determination and Controlof UnaccountedWater

Unaccounted water Is the difference between water delivered to the City of Aledo from the City of Fort Worth Water Department, City ground wells, and metered dellverles to customers, plus authorized but unmetered uses. (Authorized but unmetered uses would include use for fire fighting, rele~ses for flushing of lines, and uses associated with new construction.) Unaccounted water can lndude several categories:• lnaa:uracies in customer meters.• Accounts which are being used but have not yet been added to the billing

system.• Losses due to water main breaks and leaks in the water distribution system.

4

• Losses due to illegal connections and theft.

Measures to control unaccounted water are part of the routine operations of the City of Aledo. Maintenance crews and personnel consistently monitor and Inspect for and report evidence of leaks In the water distribution system. Meter readers, technicians, Inspectors and field operations personnel watch for and report signs of illegal connections so they can be addressed quickly.

Unaccounted water Is calculated In the Utility Proflle for Retail Water Suppliers (Appendix B). With the measures described in this water conservation plan, the Cty of Aleda's goal is to maintain the unaccounted water below 12% in 2019 and subsequent years. If unaccounted water exceeds this goal, the Cty wlll Implement a more intensive audit to determine the source(s) of and reduce the unaccounted water. The annual conservation report Is the primary tool used to monitor unaccounted water.

5.51.eak Detectlonand Repair

As described above, city crews 1md personnel are directed to look for and report evidence of leaks fnthe water distribution system. Areas of the water distribution system, in which there are numerous leaksand line breaks, are targeted for replacement as funds are available.

S.6 Montorlng of Effectiveness and Effldency-AnnualWaterConservatlon Report

The Utility P roflle for Retail Water Suppliers (Appendix B) will be used in the development of an annual water conservation report for the City of Aledo. This form Is completed and used to monitor the effectiveness and efficiency of the water conservation program and to plan conservation-related activities for the next year. The form records the water use by category, per capita munk:lpal use, and unaccounted water for the current year and compares them to historical values. The Utility P roflle for Retail Water Suppliers will also be sent to TRWD, which will monitor regional water conservation trends.

8. CONTINUING PUBLIC EDUCATION AND INFORMATIONCAWAIGN

The continuing publlc education and Information campaign on water conservation includes the followlng elements:

• Insert water conservation Information with water bllls. Inserts will include material developed by customers' staff and material obtained from TRWO, TWDB, TCEQ, and other sources.

• Encourage local media coverage of water conservation issues and the Importance of water conservation.

• Notify local organizations, schools, and civic groups that customer staff and staff of the City of Aledo and/or Tarrant Reglonal Water District are available to make presentations on the Importance of water conservation and ways to save water.

• Make information on Texas Smartscape principles, water conservation brochures, and other water conservation materials available to the public at Cty Hall and other public places.

• Unkstothe Texas5martscape (www.txsmartsca p e.com ) are available and also Information on water conservation on TRWO (wwwtrwd.com), TWDB (www.twdb.state.tx.us),and TCEQ (www.tceq.state.us) Web sites.

• As part of the Tarrant Regional Water District's customer base, Aledo supports the Water District's regional water conservation media campaign "Save water . Nothing can replace It."

s

7. WATER RATE STRUCTURE

Water conservation pricing Is the use of rate structures that discourage the inefficient use or waste of water. Conservation pricing structures include increasing unit prices with increased consumption, such as Inverted block rates, base rates, and excess use rates, such as water budget rates and seasonal rates. Seasonal rate structures may include addltlonal charges for upper block (outdoor) usage or excess-use surcharges for commercial customers to reduce demand during summer months.

The City of Aledo rate structure is designed to promote efficient use of water for all customers. It isdeve loped on a block rate structure that incrementally Increases the rates for customers In blocks of thousand gallons. In addition, the rates Incorporate a monthly charge for meter size which lncreaseswlth each Increase In meterstze. The application of meter charges Is designed to promote the use of accurate methodolCJBY when determ lnlng water needs and meter sizes for new development and redevelopment. Usted below Isa schedule of the City of Aledo'swater rates:

Residential and Commercial Water Rates

*The Water Meter Charge Includes the first 1,999 gallons of consumption.

8. OTHER WATER CONSERVATION MWURES

8. 1 Ordinances, Plumbing Codes, or Rules on Water.Conserving Flxturas

The State ofTex:as has required water-conserving fbttures In new construction and renovations since 1992. The state standards call for flows of no more than 2.S gallons per minute (gpm) for faucets, 3.Q gpm for showerheads, and 1.6 gallons per flush for toilets. Slmllar standards are now required nationally under federal law. These state and federal standards assure that all new construction and renovations wlll use water-conserving fixtures.

B.2 landscape Water Management Regulatbns

Below Is a summary of considerations for landscape water management regulations adopted as part of the development of this water conservation plan. These regulations are intended to minimize waste in landscape irrigation. The Qty of Aledo regulations Include the following elements:

• Prohibition of outdoor watering with sprinklers from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. year­ round. (Resetting of watering times in sprnkler systems is recommended to compJv with the water schedule. Watering with hand-held hoses, soaker hoses, or dispensers Is allowed.)

6

• Requirement that all new Irrigation syst~s Include rain and freeze sensors capable of multiple program min&- Existing Irrigation systems are encouraged to be retrofitted with similar rain and freeze sensors .

• Requirement that all new Irrigation systems be In compllance with state design and installation regulations (TAC Tltle 30, Part 1,Chapter 344).

11 Prohibition of Irrigation systems that spray directly onto impervious surfaces or onto other non-lrrgated areas. (Wind driven water drift wlll be taken Into consideration.)

• Prohibition of use of poorly maintained sprinkler systems that waste water.• Prohibition of outdoor watering during any form of precipitation.• Enforcement of the regulations by a system of warnings followed by fines for continued or

repeat violations.• Implement other measures to encourage off-peak water use.

The City and other regional water providers (North Texas Municipal Water District, Tarrant Regional Water District, Upper Trinity Regional Water District, the Trinity River Authority and the City of Dallas} have collaborated and agreed upon Implementing a year-round, no more than twice per week watering schedule. The Oty administers a twice per week watering schedule when the necessary conditions are established (condition of the Fort Worth Wholesale water contract). It is the same schedule that ls outlined in the Cty's Drought Contingency & Emergency Water Management Plan.
