With the high summer temperatures comes an increase in water usage among NTMWD cities. Currently, Richardson is in its summer water conservation plan, which allows watering at even-numbered addresses on Tuesdays and Saturdays and at odd- numbered addresses on Wednesdays and Sundays. Watering is not permitted from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Hand watering is allowed anytime when using a hose with a shut-off spray nozzle.

    Final Technical Memorandum Summary Project: Dallas –2014 Long Range Water Supply Plan Memo: TM 25- IPL Integration TM Submitted to Dallas: Monday, November 17, 2014 Associated Report Section (s): Section 7.5 TM Summary Technical Memorandum 25 (TM-25) presents the findings from analysis evaluating various alternatives for delivery of the Lake Palestine supply through the Integrated Pipeline (IPL) with Tarrant Regional Water District (TRWD) to the Bachman WTP. TM-25 includes an evaluation of adding a fourth water treatment plant (Southwest WTP) to the Dallas system and compares the cost with the expansion of Dallas’ Elm Fork WTP and associated facilities. Related Sections in 2014 Dallas LRWSP TM 25 was used in the development of Section 7.5 of the 2014 Dallas Long Range Water Supply Plan (LRWSP) describing the IPL connection to the Bachman WTP. Transition from Final TM to 2014 Dallas LRWSP No substantial changes occurred between the finalization of TM-25 and the completion of the LRWSP. Minor refinements may have occurred in response to comments received from Dallas and meetings that occurred throughout the LRWSP process. Any edits after the release of TM- 25 are not considered significant and do not change the results or recommendations presented.

  • Trophic Classification of Texas Reservoirs
    Trophic Classification of Texas Reservoirs 2018 Texas Integrated Report for Clean Water Act Sections 305(b) and 303(d) The primary productivity of reservoirs, as indicated by the amount of nutrients (phosphorus and nitrogen) and the extent of algae (suspended, floating, and attached) and rooted aquatic plants, can have a significant effect on water quality. Up to a point, nutrients promote ecosystem production and healthy growth of algae, larger plants, and fish and other aquatic organisms. However, excess nutrients and algae in reservoirs can have a deleterious effect on water quality, and algae can reach nuisance levels that potentially (1) create nuisance aesthetic conditions, (2) cause taste and odor in drinking water sources, (3) contribute to reduced dissolved oxygen as algae decay, and (4) and ultimately reduce the ability of a water body to support healthy, diverse aquatic communities. Eutrophication refers to an overall condition characterized by an accumulation of nutrients that support relatively elevated growth of algae and other organisms. Eutrophication is primarily influenced by the physical and hydrological characteristics of the water body and can be affected by natural processes and human activities in the surrounding watershed. Human activities can accelerate the eutrophication process by i ncreasing the rate at which nutrients and organic substances enter impoundments and surrounding watersheds. Discharges of treated sewage, agricultural and urban runoff, leaking septic tanks, and erosion of stream banks can increase the flow of nutrients and organic substances into reservoirs. In comparison to natural lakes in northern states, the eutrophication process in southern reservoirs is often enhanced by (1 ) warm climates with long growing seasons, (2) soils and geologic substrates that create high concentrations of sediment and nutrients in rainfall runoff, and (3) relatively high ri ver inflows on main stem impoundments.
