  1. Regional Water Conservation Monitoring Committee

  2. Moore Plumbing Supply Contract • EAA contracted with Moore Supply to provide for supply and delivery of up to 40,000 high efficiency/low-flow toilets and fixtures. • 3 year agreement which the EAA may purchase fixtures as needed • Total Contract price is $4.5 million • There is no purchase minimum

  3. Pending contract with Universal City • Water conservation contract with Universal City is pending EAA Board approval • Would conserve 327.368 ac-ft • Place 136.684 ac-ft in the GW Trust • Cost per ac-ft is $950 • Total contract cost is $311,000

  4. San Antonio Zoo & CEMEX • EAA staff are in discussions with the Zoo to replace aging well pumps with Variable Frequency Drive pumps, capture stormwater, and A/C condensate • These activities could save up to 800 ac-ft • There is the potential of participating in a cost share with CEMEX in a water recirculation/recycling program.

  5. Issues and Concerns • Limited funding - $950/ac-ft available • Concept of water saved over 10 years • 10,000 ac-ft of initial commitments not met and; for 10 years, not 15 • Finding participating communities • Limited water availability RWCP Directional Memo

  6. Diversified Approach • Cost share in large scale projects (treated effluent) • Use of non EA sources • Non municipal users (industry or ag) • San Antonio zoo • CEMEX RWCP Directional Memo

  7. New Program Elements • Contact DoD regarding conservation savings • Expand search for industrial and reuse opportunities • If necessary, provide conceptual cost estimates to repair water loss • Seek opportunities within SM/NB • Potential cost share with TWDB funds RWCP Directional Memo

  8. Next Steps • A diversified approach is recommended • Implementing Committee approval • Amend Texas AgriLife’s contract • EAA Board approval RWCP Directional Memo
