Section 1 - Introduction The municipal water use profile was presented in the previous Basin Plan, including a summary of water sources, uses, and supply systems for the Wind-Bighorn Basin (LA, 2002a). The previous Basin Plan documented 58 municipal water systems in the Basin, with 22 of those systems obtaining water supply from surface water sources and the remaining 36 systems using groundwater supplies. Information pertaining to how each of the municipal water systems was defined can be found in the previous Basin Plan. Municipal water use in the Basin was made up of surface water resources (68 percent of total use) and groundwater resources (32 percent of total use). Total average municipal water use was 12.2 million gallons per day (mgd), equivalent to about 207 gallons per capita per day (gpcd). A storage capacity of 36.7 million gallons was available to meet seasonal variations in municipal water use. The largest municipal surface water diversion from the Basin was the Shoshone Municipal Pipeline, which delivered water to about 21,000 people from storage in Reservoir. Surface water depletion and augmentation were summarized for seven municipal entities in the Basin, showing net annual surface water depletions of about 2,900 acre-feet per year.

The domestic water use profile was also summarized in the previous Basin Plan, including a summary of domestic water use by non-municipal public systems and rural domestic users (LA, 2002b). A range of 6.5 to 10.4 mgd was reported for total domestic water. Approximately 70 percent of domestic water use was attributed to use by the rural domestic population of about 26,000 people. All of the rural domestic water use was supplied by individual groundwater wells in the alluvial, Wind River, Willwood, and Paleozoic aquifers. Most (83 percent) of the rural domestic water wells were located in Fremont and Park counties. Domestic water use also occurred for the 115 non-municipal public water systems, of which water supplies were approximately 50 percent surface water supplies and 50 percent groundwater supplies. Approximately 34,300 people were served by non-municipal public water systems, with the majority of this population located in Yellowstone National Park. Per capita water use was assumed to range from 150 to 300 gpcd for domestic water users in order to estimate total domestic demands. Section 2 - Municipal Water Use Profile As of early 2009, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Safe Drinking Water Information System (SDWIS; USEPA, 2009) lists 60 active community public water systems located in the Basin. A community public water system is defined by the USEPA as “a public water system that supplies water to the same population year-round” (USEPA, 2008). A summary listing of all water systems in the USEPA SWDIS database for the Wind-Bighorn Basin is presented in Appendix A.

During the spring and summer of 2009, the Water Development Commission (WWDC) conducted a survey of all known municipal and non-municipal community public water systems in the State of Wyoming. The results of the survey were summarized in the 2009 WWDC Water System Survey Report. The information contained in the report is based on completed surveys submitted by 100 community public water systems within the State of Wyoming, but does not include information on all the entities listed in the USEPA SWDIS database. Some entities did not respond to the survey request and some responded with incomplete information or indicated that systems were so small that the questions on the survey did not apply. Therefore, detailed information for only 42 of the 60 USEPA SWDIS active community public water systems in the Basin is available. Of the 42 community water systems with detailed information, 27 of the systems obtain at least part of their water supply from groundwater sources and 15 of the systems use surface water supply as their primary water source (WWDC, 2009). To be consistent with state-level data, the remaining portion of this section reports population estimates based on those included in the WWDC water system survey reports. A summary listing of all water systems in the 2009 WWDC Water System Report for the Wind-Bighorn Basin is presented in Appendix A.

Groundwater Use Community water systems that obtain at least a portion of their water supply from groundwater resources are summarized in Table 1. Total population served by groundwater sources was approximately 22,710 (WWDC, 2009). Total reported average daily use from groundwater sources was about 5.1 million gallons per day (about 5,700 acre-feet per year; WWDC, 2009; WWDC, 2007). Total reported storage capacity, including raw water and treated water storage, amounted to about 19 million gallons (about 58 acre-feet). Detailed water system and use information for each of the community public water systems is provided in Appendix A.

Surface Water Use The 2009 Water System Survey Report (WWDC, 2009) shows that 22 community public water systems obtained their water supply primarily from surface water resources (summarized in Table 3). Total population served by surface water sources was approximately 60,000. Total reported average daily use from surface water sources was about 6.9 million gallons per day (about 7,728 acre-feet per year). Total reported storage capacity including treated water storage and raw water (excluding Buffalo Bill Reservoir storage of approximately 9,725 acre-feet), amounted to about 23 million gallons (about 71 acre-feet). Table 3 lists the community public water systems which receive their water solely through surface water sources.

Additional Supplies from Reservoirs There are two municipal entities that divert either all or a portion of their surface water from storage. The Shoshone Regional Water Supply System diverts all of its supply from Buffalo Bill Reservoir. A summary of these systems is contained in the following sections. The Town of Thermopolis uses storage in Boysen Reservoir to supplement its surface water diversions. Division III records show that between 1 and 101 acre-feet per year has been used by Thermopolis from Boysen Reservoir storage. There may be reservoirs within the Basin that provide incidental storage benefits to surface water diversions. However, any incidental storage diverted is not recorded as being diverted from storage by Division III.

Average Monthly Water Use Average monthly surface water diversions and groundwater pumping were estimated for each community public water provider serving at least 1,000 people. Total annual diversions/pumping and population data were obtained from the most recent WY Water System Survey Report (WWDC, 2009). Monthly water use patterns (i.e., monthly percentage of total annual water use) were estimated based on actual surface diversions for major municipal providers (See Technical Memorandum 4B for description of municipal diversion data in WindBighorn_Hydro database). The average monthly use pattern was then applied to each of the community public water providers’ total annual demand to estimate monthly use (Table 4).

Consumptive Use and Return Flows Consumptive use for municipal public water providers serving at least 1,000 people was estimated based on the monthly water use (diversions) data from the previous section. Separate consumptive use percentages were applied to estimated sewered (water use returning to a wastewater treatment facility, primarily indoor water use) and non-sewered (water use that does not return to a treatment facility, primarily outdoor water use.) Consumptive use for indoor deliveries was based on a typical value of 15 percent, indicating that 85 percent of indoor deliveries would return to a wastewater treatment facility, and is based on review of data for smaller rural communities with similar water use and return flow patterns (MWH, 2001). Consumptive use for outdoor deliveries was based on a typical on-farm efficiency for sprinkler systems of 80 percent (SCS, 1993) assuming that this is indicative of municipal sprinkler systems as well. This results in 20 percent of outdoor deliveries returning to alluvial groundwater and/or the stream system. Indoor water use for all months was estimated to be the same as total water use in January, with outdoor water use comprising the remaining monthly use. Overall, this analysis results in an average annual consumptive use of 41 percent, and an average annual return flow of 59 percent. Monthly consumptive use and return flows are presented in Table 5 and Table 6.

Depletions to surface water from alluvial wells and from consumptive use of surface water diversions, and augmentation to surface water from non-tributary bedrock wells (which are not naturally tributary to surface water) can be estimated from consumptive use and return flow calculations. Groundwater aquifer types were determined based on the well depth information from the 2007 and 2009 Water Survey Report (WWDC, 2007; WWDC, 2009) as shown in Table 7. Shallow wells close to the surface were determined to receive water from alluvial groundwater aquifers. Deep wells were determined to pump from non-tributary supplies. This was ascertained by the noticeable difference in maximum well depth between the deep wells and shallow wells.

Table 7. Well Information and Aquifer Type for Municipalities Using Groundwater Supply Minimum Maximum Estimated Municipality Well Depth (ft) Well Depth (ft) Aquifer Type Basin 4,130 4,173 Non-tributary Greybull 3,000 3,200 Non-tributary Riverton 600 1,823 Non-tributary South Big Horn County JPB 5,200 5,400 Non-tributary Worland 2,400 2,400 Non-tributary Thermopolis 30 30 Alluvial Dubois 60 60 Alluvial

Consumptive use for surface water users and alluvial groundwater users represent the rate of depletions to surface water supply. Return flows from non-tributary groundwater users represent surface water augmentations. The following describes augmentation and depletion from this water use:

• Augmentation – Surface water is augmented by return flows from non-tributary aquifer pumping by wells for Basin, Greybull, Riverton, South Bighorn County JPB and Worland. Monthly return flows for these wells are shown in Table 6. Accounting for the percentage of Riverton’s supply that is supplied by groundwater, total augmentation to surface water from bedrock well return flows is about 2,544 acre-feet per year.

• Depletion – Depletion of surface waters by wells and consumptive use of surface water is estimated by the consumptive use from these sources, including alluvial wells in Dubois and Thermopolis, and surface water diversions by Lander, Lovell, Riverton, Thermopolis, NW Rural Water District and Powell. Consumptive use is shown in Table 5. Accounting for the percentage of Riverton’s supply that is supplied by surface water, total depletions from these sources are about 3,431 acre-feet per year.

It should be noted that the monthly effect of depletions on surface water bodies from alluvial wells may differ from monthly well pumping due to lag effects in the groundwater. These lags were not determined as part of this study.

Regional Municipal Water Systems Two regional municipal water supply systems are located within the Basin: The Big Horn Regional Water Supply System and the Shoshone Regional Water Supply System. The Big Horn Regional Water Supply System was constructed to provide primary, secondary or emergency potable water supplies to its member entities. Table 8 summarizes the entities served and the system design flows associated with each of the member entities, which include City of Worland, Washakie Rural Improvement & Service District, Town of Basin/South Big Horn, Town of Greybull, Burlington/Otto, Basin Gardens, Kirby/Lucerne and users north of Basin.

The Big Horn Regional system is supplied water primarily from the City of Worland Well #3, a 2,334- foot deep, artesian well completed in the Madison Formation. Flow tests on the well in 2006 determined an estimated capacity of the well at 5,000 gpm at a wellhead pressure of 28.5 psi. The shut in pressure of the well when it was drilled was 206 psi and its normal operating wellhead pressure is currently about 150 psi. The Big Horn Regional system can also be supplied by the Husky-Worland Well #1, a 4,210- foot deep well located about one mile southeast of the Worland Well #3. Its estimated capacity subsequent to flow testing in 2006 is 1,325 gpm at a wellhead pressure of 31 psi. The location of the pipeline and the supply wells is shown in Figure 2.

The Big Horn Regional Joint Powers Board is continuing investigations into expansion of the Bighorn Regional system, including feasibility studies of an extension west to the Burlington-Otto area and south to the Lucerne Water & Sewer District and Kirby. Existing Level III funding is authorized for construction of the segment to Kirby, with construction set to begin sometime in 2010. Additionally, Level II well siting and drilling focused in the northern part of the system near Greybull is currently being conducted to provide additional groundwater supply to the system.

The Shoshone Regional Water Supply System was constructed to provide treated and raw water supplies to the communities of Cody, Powell, Byron, Lovell, Deaver and Frannie, as well as the Northwest Rural Water District’s nine service areas. The Shoshone Municipal Pipeline has 9,275 acre feet of storage in the Buffalo Bill Reservoir with additional storage in the communities of Cody (2.0 million gallons), Powell (1.9 million gallons), Lovell (1.2 million gallons) and Northwest Rural Water District (915,000 gallons). The treated water pipeline consists of a 36 inch diameter steel pipe from the Municipal Pipeline Water Treatment Plant to Cody, 24 inch steel pipe to Powell, 18 inch steel pipe to Deaver/Frannie spur, and 16 inch steel pipe to Lovell. The Deaver/Frannie spur is 10 inch PVC pipe for the first 4 miles and 8 inch PVC pipe on to Deaver and Frannie.

The capacity of the Municipal Pipeline Water Treatment Plant is 16.5 million gallons per day. It is projected that it will serve the needs of the area until about 2025. The plant has been designed to have a fourth module added at that time to increase the capacity to 22 mgd, which is projected to serve the area needs beyond the year 2030. The location of the pipeline and the communities it serves within the Basin is shown in Figure 2. Return flows for both regional systems are accounted for in the previous section.

Section 3 – Non-Community Public Water Use Profile As of early 2009, the USEPA SDWIS (USEPA, 2009) lists 98 non-community public water systems within the Basin. This includes both transient and non-transient non-community water systems. Transient non-community water systems are public water systems that provide water in a place such as gas stations or campgrounds where people do not remain for long periods of time and are open at least 60 days/year. Non-transient non-community water systems are public water systems that regularly supply water to at least 25 of the same people at least six months per year, but not year-round, such as schools, factories, office buildings, and hospitals which have their own water systems (USEPA, 2008). Based on the information provided by the USEPA SWDIS database, water supply for these water systems is supplied by both groundwater and surface water sources. A summary listing of all water systems in the USEPA SWDIS database for the Wind-Bighorn Basin is presented in Appendix A.

The average daily population served by these non-community systems, according to the USEPA, is 18,400 people. To estimate domestic water usage from these 98 non-community public water systems, the use rate of 75 gallons per capita per day (gpcpd) as assumed in the previous Basin Plan analysis (LA, 2002) was used in the current analysis. This assumption yields a total non-community water use within the Basin of 1.38 million gallons per day (mgd).

Section 4 - Domestic Water Use Profile Rural domestic water use is defined as household water use within the Basin that is not supplied by the community/municipal water systems discussed in Section 3. Within the Basin there are 13,638 permitted groundwater wells that are used for domestic purposes, with 9,693 utilized for domestic use only, and 3,945 wells utilized for either domestic-stock water use or mixed domestic water use classified as domestic-other (WSEO, 2009). Table 9 summarizes the permitted domestic groundwater wells within the Basin by county. Locations of all wells permitted for domestic use are shown in Figure 3.

Assuming most of the rural domestic water use in the Basin is supplied by domestic water wells, domestic water use by county was estimated by subtracting the total population served by community water systems in the USEPA database from the estimated total population for each community from the US Census Bureau. Population estimates could not be used for Natrona and Johnson Counties because only a small portion of these counties are included in the Basin. Data for the domestic wells located within the study area in Natrona and Johnson Counties was therefore estimated based on average household size, the number of wells, and an assumed per capita usage rate. As per the previous Basin Plan, it is assumed that there are 2.5 persons for each of these domestic wells. For Teton County, no domestic wells are located within the study area, therefore estimates of domestic well water use was zero. A summary of the domestic well water use calculations is provided below in Table 10.

Assuming the same rural domestic per capita water use range as the previous Basin Plan (LA, 2002b), between 150 and 300 gpcpd, and the population serviced by domestic wells for the Basin of 25,120 people, the estimated domestic groundwater use is between 3.8 and 7.5 mgd.

Section 5 –Municipal and Domestic Water Use Summary Municipal water use for the Basin is supplied by 60 active municipal water systems relying on both surface water resources (~58 percent of total use) and groundwater resources (~42 percent of total use). Total average municipal water use was 13,428 acre-feet per year, with a storage capacity of approximately 132 acre feet per year (plus additional storage from Buffalo Bill Reservoir) to meet seasonal variations in municipal water use. The largest municipal surface water diversion from the Basin was the Shoshone Municipal Pipeline, which delivered water to about 24,600 people from storage in Buffalo Bill Reservoir.

Non-Community water use in the Basin was estimated at 1.4 mgd (1,568 acre-feet per year), based on an average daily population of 18,400 served by these systems. Domestic water use by rural domestic users for the Basin ranged from 3.8 to 7.5 mgd (4,256 to 8,400 acre-feet per year). Per capita water use was assumed to range from 150 to 300 gpcd for domestic water users in order to estimate total domestic demands. A summary of total municipal, non-community and domestic water use is presented in Table 11.
