BOX 7558 TELEPHONE AREA CODE 817 776.1441 Dear Mayor Tonn: On the behalf of your City, you have ioined with other entities in Lampasas, Bell and Williamson Counties to determine through an engineering study the feasibility and cost of constructing a Regional Treatment and Transmission System (RTTS) to provide treated water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir. The availabil- ity of raw water for this purpose is contingent on the develop- ment of a new raw water supply reservoir in the Brazos Basin to replace existing downstream contractual commitments for water presently met by releases from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir. A potential project, known as the Goodwill Reservoir Project, which could provide the new raw water supply to offset the downstream commitments of Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, has been identified and through preliminary engineering studies the unit cost of raw water from this new source has been estimated. The objective of the RTTS Feasibility Study is to provide an estimate of the cost for treating the raw water freed -up in Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir and transmitting the treated water to the distribution point or points of each participating entity on a unit basis. Each partic- ipant can then decide, based on the unit costs for raw water from the Goodwill Reservoir and the unit cost for treatment and trans- mission of water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, whether or not it wishes to continue participation in the Goodwill Reservoir Project. The following alphabetically listed entities, "Participating Entities ", have formally requested participation in the RTTS Feasibility Study: City of Cedar Park, Chisholm Trail WSC, City of Georgetown, High Gabriel WSC, Jonah WSC,Kempner WSC, City of Lampasas, City of Leander, City of Round Rock, Salado WSC and SCB Corporation. In response to these requests the Board of Directors of the Brazos River Authority authorized this letter agreement at its quarterly meeting on July 18, 1983. The Brazos River Authority has received from the engineering firm of Henningson, Durham and Richardson (HDR) of Austin, Texas a WACO. TEXAS •76710 October 25, 1983 w/ i ' Page 2 proposal and cost estimate, provided as Enclosure 1, for perform- ing the engineering services required to conduct the RTTS Feasi- bility Study. The estimated cost of these services is $64,525.00. This total cost will be prorated between the Participating Entities on the basis of the amount of water supply requested by each participant from the Goodwill Project plus the amount of a commitment already held by Salado Water Supply Corporation for 0.71 million gallons per day (mgd) of raw water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir.. Salado WSC has requested participation in the RTTS Feasibility Study as a potential means of obtaining its 0.71 mgd from Stilihouse Hollow but will not at this time be con- sidered as a participating entity in the Goodwill Reservoir Project, and any water freed -up in Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir as . a result of the future construction of the Goodwill Project will not be allocated to Salado WSC ahead of the original participating entities. The attached table, Enclosure 2, "Goodwill Reservoir Project Par- ticipation and Pro -rata Cost for Stilihouse Hollow Treatment and Transmission Feasibility Study" shows projected raw water needs, percent participation in Goodwill Reservoir Project, quantity of water presently available for treatment from Stilihouse Hollow Reservoir, percent participation in RTTS Feasibility Study and allocated RTTS Feasibility Study cost for each Participating Entity. This table has been revised and contains different figures than were shown at the briefing held in the Authority's offices on the night of October 20, 1983 and contained in the DRAFT table distrib- uted at the briefing. The Projected Raw Water Needs for the City of Lampasas was reduced from 6.0 mgd to 3.3 mgd, and for Kempner WSC from 6.6 mgd to 4.0 mgd. These adjustments resulted in minor changes throughout the remainder of the table. It is understood that the entities involved in the RTTS Feasibility Study will advance their prorated share of the study cost and if, and only if, a project is constructed as a result of these studies, the monies advanced by it for the Feasibility Study can be repaid to each entity participating in the project's implementation from the proceeds of the bonds issued for that purpose. The total cost for performing the RTTS Feasibility Study will not exceed $64,525.00 without further written authorization from the Participating Entities. At the conclusion of the study, the results will be reported to the Participating Entities, and a joint meeting will be held to deter- mine those entities wishing to continue with the project. This letter will serve as a Letter Agreement between your governing body and the Brazos River Authority for the Authority to initiate and perform the RTTS Feasibility Study, as provided in the HDR Proposal at Enclosure 1, at the prorated cost shown for each Participating Entity in Enclosure 2, provided all entities execute this Agreement and advance their prorated share of the study costs. In the event one or more of the entities should fail to execute this Agreement or to deliver payment for their prorated cost, • this Letter Agreement shall be cancelled and be of no further force or effect. If this Agreement is cancelled those entities which have established their participation in the project by sub- mitting an executed Letter Agreement and providing advance payment of their prorated cost will be given the option of either acquiring, on a prorated basis, the additional project share available or re- maining in the project at their original allocation provided another entity or entities acquire their allocated amount. In the event that neither of-the options described above is acceptable, then the advanced payment made in accordance with the cancelled Letter Agreement will be returned. If the proposals set forth in this letter for accomplishing the RTTS Feasibility Study meet with the approval of your City Council, please so indicate by signing in the appropriate space below and returning one copy of this Letter Agreement together with a certi- fied copy of the resolution of the proper governing body authoriz- ing its acceptance to the Authority not later than November 18, 1983.

Hoge, ,General Manager ACCEPTED: By Page 3 Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir is presently totally committed to downstream water customers of the Brazos River Authority. However, a downstream reservoir site has been identified and has been shown to have the potential to supply all of BRA's present Stillhouse Hollow customers, except for those in the immediate area. After supplying needs of the local area, water could be made available from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir to other water purchasers if a reservoir is constructed at the new site. The purpose'of this study is to define the engineering feasibility of trea- ing and transmitting the water which may be available from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir to the study participants. The participants are: City of Cedar Park; Chisholm Trail Water Supply Corporation City of Georgetown; . High Gabriel Water Supply Corporation; Jonah Water Supply Corporation; Kempner Water 'Supply Corporation; City of Lampasas; City of Leander /Leander Water Supply Corporation; City of Round Rock; Salado Water Supply Corporation; and SCB Development Corporation. . The attached task schedule describes each of major work items which will be completed in the course of the study. It is followed by an estimate of study costs and a schedule for completion of the study tasks. Enclosure 1 PROPOSAL FOR A FEASIBILITY STUDY OF REGIONAL TREATMENT AND TRANSMISSION SYSTEM - STILLHOUSE HOLLOW FOR BRAZOS RIVER AUTHORITY TENTATIVE TASK SCHEDULE, COST ESTIMATE, AND SCHEDULE Page 1 of 6 Task 100: COORDINATION AND IMPLEMENTATION Task 101: REGIONAL TREATMENT AND TRANSMISSION SYSTEM - STILLHOUSE HOLLOW TENTATIVE TASK SCHEDULE Initial Meeting with BRA and Participating Entities The initial effort of the project will be a presentation' of the study outline, team, schedule, and costs to the participating entities by BRA and HDR. Prior to the presentation, HDR will present a synopsis of the presen- tation to BRA and assist in preparation of the joint presentation. The presentation will provide the parti- cipants with their percentage of study costs, based on allocation of water requested, will outline additional information required from them, and will request desig- nation of a contact person who is familiar with their waterworks system and its operation. A time frame for submission of each item will be provided. Task 102: Review of Entity Needs, Demand Rates, and System Operations In order to maximize the benefits of the regional system for each participant, a thorough understanding of each city's system, its components and its operation will be necessary. To minimize the involvement of the study team, and thereby reduce study costs, it is requested that each participant provide the following information: 1. Map waterworks showing a. Existing distribution system with pressure planes delineated. • b. Sources of supply 1) Well locations, year drilled, capacity, associated ground storage and high service capacity, and description of conditions/ problems associated with well and any operating restrictions affecting .use of the well /reservoir /pump station installation. 2) Surface water sources detailing quantity of permitted water rights or water contracts,. location and capacity of intakes, raw water pump stations, water treatment processes and capacity, clear wells, high service pump stations, and transmission mains. c. Elevated storage /ground storage and high service pump stations incorporated in the distribution system 2. Any available water supply /distribution system reports 3. Present average day, peak day, and peak hour demand rates After a review of the information provided, a synopsis of the present and future system operations will be prepared and re- viewed with BRA and the participants' designated representatives. Page 2 of 6 Task 200: PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATIONS Task 201: System Termination Plans Based on information provided by each entity, HDR will define plan(s) which will maximize system benefit to each participant. These plans will satisfy Texas Department of Health and State Board of Insurance requirements to the maximum extent possible, and will attempt to minimize the need for extensive system improvements or adjustments. These plans will be reviewed with each participant's desig- nated representative and written comments will be required before finalization of the termination plan. Task 202: System Demands Considering the optimum termination plan for each participant, a range of_system design demands will be defined in order to establish present and future load conditions. This analysis will be prepared by decade for each participant and will provide the initial basis for analyzing participant's storage, transmission, and treatment requirements. Task 203: Reservoir Analysis Utilizing topographic maps and yield, level, and sediment pool information available from the Brazos River Authority, U.S. Corps of Engineers, and Texas.Department of Water Resources, potential site(s) for intake structure(s) and pump station(s) in Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir will'be determined. This analysis will include investigation of existing diversion structures and the potential for joint utilization of such facilities. For each identified site, intake and pump station requirements will be determined, including definition of appropriate type of structure, finished floor elevation, requirements for access, founda- tion and system control, and any specific institutional re- strictions on the operation of a facility,at each site. Task 204: Water Quality /Treatment Analysis Using water quality data available from the Brazos River Authority, Texas Department of Water Resources, Texas Department of Health, U.S. Geological Survey, and agencies operating treatment plants on Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, analyze reservoir water quality and define recommended treatment processes. Analyze potential for taste and odor problems due to lake overturns. Evaluate compatibility of treated water with other sources of supply while being directed through common distribution systems. Denote additional data, both field and laboratory, which must be obtained prior to final design. Page 3 of 6 Task 205: Corridor Analysis /Route Selection A composite map „using U.S. Geological Survey topographic maps, will be prepared to show potential corridors and routes available for the pipeline. A number of possible routes will be considered, however, approximately three preferred routes will be identified. A preliminary hydraulic profile analysis will be performed for each of the routes to define problem areas. Joint utilization and enhancing benefits to existing and proposed participants' facilities will be addressed. The location of natural and man -made features and environmentally sensitive areas will be superimposed on the drawings, as necessary. Task 300: Task 301: Alternatives Development Utilizing the data base and potential alternatives identified in the preliminary investigations, multiple combinations of facilities' sizing and location will be developed. Combina- tions of intake structures, raw water pump stations, treat- ment locations clearwell and interim storage, pipe size and class, in - line boosting, and termination facilities will be analyzed to determine relative total construction costs. Approximately twenty (20) alternatives will be reviewed and reduced to three (3) or more optimum solutions. Task 302: Detailed Alternatives Evaluation For the three (3) or more most feasible alternatives, detailed cost estimates and system operating plans will be developed. Costs will be determined for the construction, operation, and maintenance of facilities. Using the operations plans for each of the alternatives, the relative merits of each system will be evaluated with respect to the impact on the participants' operations. Task 400: Task 401: ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS RECOMMENDATION AND REPORT Recommended Alternative For the recommended alternative, a detailed description of all components will be prepared. This narrative will outline the impact of the system for each participant and will describe and estimate the cost of facility adjustments required in each city. The extent and cost estimates for systems adjustment will be reviewed with each participants' designated represen- tative prior to finalization. Total expected costs for each entity, including adjustment costs, will be presented. An analysis of the potential for staging portions of the project will be presented along with a financial evaluation and any pertinent contractual arrangements that should be considered in the feasibility of the project. Page 4 of 6 Task 402: Report and Presentation A verbal presentation of the recommended alternative and its cost will be presented to the participants when the draft report is completed and has been reviewed with the Authority. Comments from all participants will be solicited prior to finalization of the report. Task 403: Final Report The final report, addressing all of the items outlined in this study, will be prepared and submitted to the Authority, in sufficient numbers to provide BRA with ten copies and each participant with two copies.

Page 2 of 6 Task 200: PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATIONS Task 201: System Termination Plans Based on information provided by each entity, HDR will define plan(s) which will maximize system benefit to each participant. These plans will satisfy Texas Department of Health and State Board of Insurance requirements to the maximum extent possible, and will attempt to minimize the need for extensive system improvements or adjustments. These plans will be reviewed with each participant's desig- nated representative and written comments will be required before finalization of the termination plan. Task 202: System Demands Considering the optimum termination plan for each participant, a range of_system design demands will be defined in order to establish present and future load conditions. This analysis will be prepared by decade for each participant and will provide the initial basis for analyzing participant's storage, transmission, and treatment requirements. Task 203: Reservoir Analysis Utilizing topographic maps and yield, level, and sediment pool information available from the Brazos River Authority, U.S. Corps of Engineers, and Texas.Department of Water Resources, potential site(s) for intake structure(s) and pump station(s) in Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir will•be determined. This analysis will include investigation of existing diversion structures and the potential for joint utilization of such facilities. For each identified site, intake and pump station requirements will be determined, including definition of appropriate type of structure, finished floor elevation, requirements for access, founda- tion and system control, and any specific institutional re- strictions on the operation of a facility,at each site. Task 204: Water Quality /Treatment Analysis Using water quality data available from the Brazos River Authority, Texas Department of Water Resources, Texas Department of Health, U.S. Geological Survey, and agencies operating treatment plants on Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, analyze reservoir water quality and define recommended treatment processes. Analyze potential for taste and odor problems due to lake overturns. Evaluate compatibility of treated water with other sources of supply while being directed through common distribution systems. Denote additional data, both field and laboratory, which must be obtained prior to final design. Page 3 of 6 Task 205: Corridor Analysis /Route Selection A composite map,.using U.S. Geological Survey topographic maps, will be prepared to show potential corridors and' routes available for the pipeline. A number of possible routes will be considered, however, approximately three preferred routes will be identified. A preliminary hydraulic profile analysis will be performed for each of the routes to define problem areas. Joint utilization and enhancing benefits to existing and proposed participants' facilities will be addressed. The location of natural and man -made features and environmentally sensitive areas will be superimposed on the drawings, as necessary. Task 300: ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS Task 301: Alternatives Development Utilizing the data base and potential alternatives identified in the preliminary investigations, multiple combinations of facilities' sizing and location will be developed. Combina- tions of intake structures, raw water pump stations, treat- ment locations clearwell and interim storage, pipe size and class, in -line boosting, and termination facilities will be analyzed to determine relative total construction costs. Approximately twenty (20) alternatives will be reviewed and reduced to three (3) or more optimum solutions. Task 302: Detailed Alternatives Evaluation For the three (3) or more most feasible alternatives, detailed cost estimates and system operating plans will be developed. Costs will be determined for the construction, operation, and maintenance of facilities. Using the operations plans for each of the alternatives, the relative merits of each system will be evaluated with respect to the impact on the participants' operations. Task 400: RECOMMENDATION AND REPORT Task 401: Recommended Alternative For the recommended alternative, a detailed description of all components will be prepared. This narrative will outline the impact of the system for each participant and will describe and estimate the cost of facility adjustments required in each city. The extent and cost estimates for systems adjustment will be reviewed with each participants' designated represen- tative prior to finalization. Total expected costs for each entity, including adjustment costs, will be presented. An analysis of the potential for staging portions of the project will be presented along with a financial evaluation and any pertinent contractual arrangements that should be considered in the feasibility of the project.

TEXAS • 76710 October 20, 1983 "4:',41 FT Dear Mayor On the behalf of your City (district), you have joined with other entities in Lampasas, Bell and Williamson Counties to deter- mine through an engineering study the feasibility and cost of constructing a Regional Treatment and Transmission System (RTTS) to provide treated water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir. The availa- bility of raw water for this purpose is contingent on the development of a new raw water supply reservoir in the Brazos Basin to replace existing downstream contractual commitments for water presently met by releases from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir. A potential project, known as the Goodwill Reservoir Project, which could provide the new raw water supply to offset the downstream commitments of Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, has been identified and through preliminary engineering studies the unit cost of raw water from this new source has been estimated. The objective of the RTTS Feasibility Study is to provide an estimate of the cost for treating the raw water freed up in Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir and transmitting the treated water to the distribution point or points of each participating ilk Page 2 entity on a unit basis. Each participant can then decide, based on the unit costs for raw water from the Goodwill Reservoir and the unit cost for treatment and transmission of water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, whether or not it wishes to continue participation in the Goodwill Reservoir Project. The following alphabetically listed entities, "Participating Entities ", have formally requested participation in the RTTS Feasibility Study: City of Cedar Park, Chisholm Trail WSC, City of Georgetown, High Gabriel WSC, Jonah WSC, Kempner WSC, City of Lampasas, City of Leander, Salado WSC and SCB Corporation. In response to these requests the Board of Directors of the Brazos River Authority authorized this letter agreement at its quarterly meeting on July 18, 1983. The Brazos River Authority has received from the engineering firm of Henningson, Durham and Richardson (HDR) of Austin, Texas a proposal and cost estimate, provided as Enclosure 1, for performing the en- gineering services required to conduct the RTTS Feasibility Study. The estimated cost of these services is $64,525.00. This total cost will be prorated between the Participating Entities on the basis of the amount of water supply requested by each participant from the Goodwill Project plus the amount of a commitment already held by Salado Water Supply Corporation for 0.71 million gallons per day (mgd) of raw water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir. Salado WSC has requested participation in the RTTS Feasibility Study as a potential means of obtaining its 0.71 mgd from Stillhouse Hollow but will not at this time be considered as a participating entity in the Goodwill Reservoir Project, and any water freed -up in Stillhouse Hollow RAFT Page 3 Reservoir as a result of the future construction of the Goodwill Project will not be allocated to Salado WSC ahead of the original participating entities. The attached table, Enclosure 2, "Goodwill Reservoir Project Participation and Pro -rata Cost for Stillhouse Hollow Treatment and Transmission Feasibility Study" shows projected raw water needs, percent participation in Goodwill Reservoir Project, quantity of water presently available for treatment from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, percent participation in RTTS Feasibility Study and allo- cated RTTS Feasibility Study cost for each Participating Entity. This table combines on one sheet the information and figures contained on the slides which were shown at the briefing held in the Authority's offices on the night of October 20, 1983. It is understood that the entities involved in the RTTS Feasibility Study will advance their prorated share of the study cost and if, and only if, a project is constructed as a result of these studies, the monies advanced by it for the Feasibility Study can be repaid to each entity participating in the project's imple- mentation from the proceeds of the bonds issued for that purpose. The total cost for performing the RTTS Feasibility Study will not exceed $64,525.00 without further written authorization from the Participating Entities. At the conclusion of the study, the results will be reported to the Participating Entities, and a joint meeting will be held to determine those entities wishing to continue with the project. This letter will serve as a Letter Agreement between your governing body and the Brazos River' Authority for the Authority to initiate and perform the RTTS Feasibility Study, as provided in the HDR Proposal at Enclosure 1, at the prorated cost shown for each Participating Entity in Enclsoure 2, provided all entities execute this Agreement and advance their prorated share of the study costs. In the event one or more of the entities should fail to execute this Agreement or to deliver payment for their prorated cost, this Letter Agreement shall be cancelled and be of no further force or effect. If this agreement is cancelled those entities which have established their participation in the project by submitting an exe- cuted Letter Agreement and providing advance payment of their pro- rated cost will be given the option of either acquiring, on a prorated basis, the additional project share available or remaining in the project at their original allocation provided another entity or entities acquire their allocated amount. In the event that neither of the op- tions described above is acceptable then the advanced payment made in accordance with the cancelled Letter Agreement will be returned. If the proposals set forth in this letter for accomplishing the RTTS Feasibility Study meet with the approval of your City Council (Board of Directors), please so indicate by signing in the appropriate space below and returning one copy of this letter agreement together with a certified copy of the resolution of the proper governing body authorizing its acceptance. Your check, in the amount indicated in the referenced table and made payable to the Brazos River Authority, should also be included. ATTEST: Yours very truly, BRAZOS RIVER AUTHORITY By Page 4 Carson H. Hoge, General Manager ACCEPTED: Dated this the day of 1983. T; By / PROPOSAL FOR A FEASIBILITY STUDY OF REGIONAL TREATMENT AND TRANSMISSION SYSTEM - STILLHOUSE HOLLOW FOR BRAZOS RIVER AUTHORITY TENTATIVE TASK SCHEDULE, COST ESTIMATE, AND SCHEDULE Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir is presently totally committed to downstream water customers of the Brazos River Authority. However, a downstream. . reservoir site has been identified and has been shown to have the potential to supply all of BRA'S present Stillhouse Hollow customers, except for those in the immediate area. After supplying needs of the local area, water could be made available from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir to other water purchasers if a reservoir is constructed at the new site. The purpose'of this study is to define the engineering feasibility of trea- ing and transmitting the water which may be available from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir to the study participants. The participants are: City of Cedar Park; Chisholm Trail Water Supply Corporation City of Georgetown; High Gabriel Water Supply Corporation; Jonah Water Supply Corporation; Kempner Water Supply Corporation; City of Lampasas; City of Leander /Leander Water Supply Corporation; City of Round Rock; Salado Water Supply Corporation; and SCB Development Corporation. The attached task schedule describes each of major work items which will be completed in the course of the study. It is followed by an estimate of study costs and a schedule for completion of the study tasks.

BOX 7555 TELEPHONE AREA CODE B77 776.1411 WACO. TEXAS.76710 October 25, 1983 On the behalf of your City, you have joined with other entities in Lampasas, Bell'and Williamson Counties to determine through an engineering study the feasibility and cost of constructing a Regional Treatment and Transmission System (RTTS) to provide treated water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir. The availabil- ity of raw water for this purpose is contingent on the develop- ment of a new raw water supply reservoir in the Brazos Basin to replace existing downstream contractual commitments for water presently met by releases from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir. A potential project, known as the Goodwill Reservoir Project, which could provide the new raw water supply to offset the downstream commitments of Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, has been identified and through preliminary engineering studies the unit cost of raw water from this new source has been estimated. The objective of the RTTS Feasibility Study is to provide an estimate of the cost for treating the raw water freed -up in Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir and transmitting the treated water to the distribution point or points of each participating entity on a unit basis. Each partic- ipant can then decide, based on the unit costs for raw water from the Goodwill Reservoir and the unit cost for treatment and trans- mission of water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, whether or not it wishes to continue participation in the Goodwill Reservoir, Project. The following alphabetically listed entities, "Participating Entities ", have formally requested participation in the RTTS Feasibility Study: City of Cedar Park, Chisholm Trail WSC, City of Georgetown, High Gabriel WSC, Jonah WSC, Kempner WSC, City of Lampasas, City of Leander, City of Round Rock, Salado WSC and SCB Corporation. In response to these requests the Board of Directors of the Brazos River Authority authorized this letter agreement at its quarterly meeting on July 18, 1983. The Brazos River Authority has received from the engineering firm of Henningson, Durham and Richardson (HDR) of Austin, Texas a i , Page 2 proposal and cost estimate, provided as Enclosure 1, for perform- ing the engineering services required to conduct the RTTS Feasi- bility Study. The estimated cost of these services is $64,525.00. This total cost will be prorated between the Participating Entities on the basis of the amount of water supply requested by each participant from the Goodwill Project plus the amount of a commitment already held by Salado Water Supply Corporation for 0.71 million gallons per day (mgd) of raw water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir.. Salado WSC has requested participation in the RTTS Feasibility Study as a potential means of obtaining its 0.71 mgd from Stillhouse Hollow but will not at this time be con- sidered as a participating entity in the Goodwill Reservoir Project, and any water freed -up in Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir as . a result of the future construction of the Goodwill Project will not be allocated to.Salado WSC ahead of the original participating entities. The attached table, Enclosure 2, "Goodwill Reservoir Project Par- ticipation and Pro -rata Cost for Stillhouse Hollow Treatment and Transmission Feasibility Study" shows projected raw water needs, percent participation in Goodwill Reservoir Project, quantity of water presently available for treatment from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, percent participation in RTTS Feasibility Study and allocated RTTS Feasibility Study cost for each Participating Entity. This table has been revised and contains different figures than were shown at the briefing held in the Authority's offices on the night of October 20, 1983 and contained in the DRAFT table distrib- uted at the briefing. The Projected Raw Water Needs for the City of Lampasas was reduced from 6.0 mgd to 3.3 mgd, and for Kempner WSC from 6.6 mgd to 4.0 mgd. These adjustments resulted in minor changes throughout the remainder of the table. It is understood that the entities involved in the RTTS Feasibility Study will advance their prorated share of the study cost and if, and only if, a project is constructed as a result of these studies, the monies advanced by it for the Feasibility Study can be repaid to each entity participating in the project's implementation from the proceeds of the bonds issued for that purpose. The total cost for performing the RTTS Feasibility Study will not exceed $64,525.00 without further written authorization from the Participating Entities. At the conclusion of the study, the results will be reported to the Participating Entities, and a joint meeting will be held to deter- mine those entities wishing to continue with the project.

TEXAS -78710 October 25, 1983 On the behalf of your City, you have joined with other entities in Lampasas, Bell'and Williamson Counties to determine through an engineering study the feasibility and cost of constructing a Regional Treatment and Transmission System (RTTS) to provide treated water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir. The availabil- ity of raw water for this purpose is contingent on the develop- ment of a new raw water supply reservoir in the Brazos Basin to replace existing downstream contractual commitments for water presently met by releases from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir. A potential project, known as the Goodwill Reservoir Project, which could provide the new raw water supply to offset the downstream commitments of Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, has been identified and through preliminary engineering studies the unit cost of raw water from this new source has been estimated. The objective of the RTTS Feasibility Study is to provide an estimate of the cost for treating the raw water freed -up in Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir and transmitting the treated water to the distribution point or points of each participating entity on a unit basis. Each partic- ipant can then decide, based on the unit costs for raw water from the Goodwill Reservoir and the unit cost for treatment and trans- mission of water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, whether or not it wishes to continue participation in the Goodwill Reservoir Project. The following alphabetically listed entities, "Participating Entities ", have formally requested participation in the RTTS Feasibility Study: City of Cedar Park, Chisholm Trail WSC, City of Georgetown, High Gabriel WSC, Jonah WSC,Kempner WSC, City of Lampasas, City of Leander, City of Round Rock, Salado WSC and SCB Corporation. In response to these requests the Board of Directors of the Brazos River Authority authorized this letter agreement at its quarterly meeting on July 18, 1983. The Brazos River Authority has received from the engineering firm of Henningson, Durham and Richardson (HDR) of Austin, Texas a Page 2 proposal and cost estimate, provided as Enclosure 1, for perform- ing the engineering services required to conduct the RTTS Feasi- bility Study. The estimated cost of these services is $64,525.00. This total cost will be prorated between the Participating Entities on the basis of the amount of water supply requested by each participant from the Goodwill Project plus the amount of a commitment already held by Salado Water Supply Corporation for 0.71 million gallons per day (mgd) of raw water from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir.. Salado WSC has requested participation in the RTTS Feasibility Study as a potential means of obtaining its 0.71 mgd from Stillhouse Hollow but will not at this time be con- sidered as a participating entity in the Goodwill Reservoir Project, and any water freed -up in Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir as . a result of the future construction of the Goodwill Project will not be allocated to.Salado WSC ahead of the original participating entities. The attached table, Enclosure 2, "Goodwill Reservoir Project Par- ticipation and Pro -rata Cost for Stillhouse Hollow Treatment and Transmission Feasibility Study" shows projected raw water needs, percent participation in Goodwill Reservoir Project, quantity of water presently available for treatment from Stillhouse Hollow Reservoir, percent participation in RTTS Feasibility Study and allocated RTTS Feasibility Study cost for each Participating Entity. This table has been revised and contains different figures than were shown at the briefing held in the Authority's offices on the night of October 20, 1983 and contained in the DRAFT table distrib- uted at the briefing. The Projected Raw Water Needs for the City of Lampasas was reduced from 6.0 mgd to 3.3 mgd, and for Kempner WSC from 6.6 mgd to 4.0 mgd. These adjustments resulted in minor changes throughout the remainder of the table. It is understood that the entities involved in the RTTS Feasibility Study. will advance their prorated share of the study cost and if, and only if, a project is constructed as a result of these studies, the monies advanced by it for the Feasibility Study can be repaid to each entity participating in the project's implementation from the proceeds of the bonds issued for that purpose. The total cost for performing the RTTS Feasibility Study will not exceed $64,525.00 without further written authorization from the Participating Entities. At the conclusion of the study, the results will be reported to the Participating Entities, and a joint meeting will be held to deter- mine those entities wishing to continue with the project.

Boring or tunnels shall be placed at such depths below bottom of pavements as to provide sufficient depth of soil above hole for supporting superimposed live and dead loads and also prevent collapse of supporting soil between hole and pavements due to any boring, tunneling, or casing jacking operations. Boring and /or tunneling shall extend past roadway crown lines and outside of any shoulders adjacent to pavements. Pits excavated for boring or tunneling operations shall be located so that possible sloughing of sides of pit will not endanger shoulders or pavements and so that barricades can be placed as specified herein. All operations and equipment relative to tunneling and boring shall be confined to areas outside of roadway shoulders and away from edges of pavements by suitable barricades. Barricades shall be maintained clear of shoulders at all times except that in no case shall the clear distance between barricades and edge of pavement or face of curb be less than 8 feet. (B) Boring Where material beneath pavement is sandy or unstable and will be subject to caving, hole for casing shall be bored and cased simultaneously and bored material removed through casing. Cutting face of auger or drill shall not project more than 6 inches ahead of casing and no water shall be used in connection with . drilling. Where material beneath pavement is stable and not subject to caving, hole for casing may be bored first and casing inserted in hole immediately after completion of boring if permitted by the Texas Department of Transportation. Water shall not be used in conjunction with drilling if it in any way causes stable material to case or become unstable. (C) Tunneling While hole is being tunneled, casing shall be jacked into place as operations progress except as hereinafter specified. Utility section December 31, 1992 Where necessary to use sectionalized steel liner plates, each successive ring of plates shall be placed in position and completely bolted into place as soon as excavation is completed far enough ahead of completed casing to receive the net ring. Working face of excavation shall not precede advancing end of casing by more than 2 1/2 feet unless otherwise permitted by the Texas Department of Transportation.
