Board of Directors Michael T. Cook January 10, 20197.1 District Manager’s Report

Purchase of Windy Gap Water Shares: Approval of the transfer of two units of Windy Gap water from Poudre River Power Authority (PRPA) to LTWD on the agenda for the January 10th, 2019 Northern Water Board Meeting, the recommendation is for approval. Based on an approval of the transfer at that meeting we have asked our partner developers to bring the funds of $5,000,000.00 to us on the 16th of January for a closing with PRPA (a transfer of funds) scheduled for January 18, 2019.

Dry Creek Discussions with Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) and Larimer County: No updates at this time, we are waiting on proposals from CPW and Larimer County.

Berthoud Area Water and Property: I have worked to connect a retiring landowner/farmer with a developer needing water for a "ready to go" project. The deal would include 81 units of CBT, 11.75 shares of Handy Ditch, and 2 parcels of land totaling over 38 acres. I am working to also make sure that the land is cared for in an appropriate manner after the water is used elsewhere.

St. Vrain Water Authority Formation:I have sent the first draft of the St, Vrain Water Authority Formation documents to Mike Westbrook for a review. We are also scheduling a meeting with Firestone to continue talking about the process of formation and our potential involvement.

Other information: We are still working with CDOT’s contractor for improvements at I-25 and SH 402. CDOT is changing their frontage road alignment on the east side which is delaying our waterline design by their engineer team.

LTWD is meeting with CDOT representatives and CWCWD for the improvements along I-25 from WCR 32 to SH 402. The interchange at SH 56 will require our jointly owned 42-inch waterline to be relocated for 3,600 feet.

We are also working with Brookfield and CDOT to produce an alignment of a new 24-inch waterline for design and construction in the next three years to ensure clearance of the I-25 expansion from WCR 32 to SH 402.

GIS progress: It should be noted that we have started adding the installation year to our database of our pipelines. Of the 610+ miles of line we have, 268 miles

of the pipe have the installation date added!

Shots on Main equates to lines GPS’d during initial construction or during a repair/pothole.

Progress as of January 7, 2019

Water Rights Outreach

The Handy Ditch Company provided the District the Executive Summary of its Ditchwide Study that evaluates the historic yield of Handy shares, among other issues. The summary document presents the assumptions and conclusions of the study. The data used in the study are in a separate report that has not been provided by the ditch at this time. Staff and the District’s consultants are reviewing the Executive Summary.

District staff and consultants are evaluating the potential yield of the Hayseed water right, the number one water right on the St. Vrain Creek. The research is primarily focused on the benefit to Brookfield as it owns a portion of the Hayseed water right, but the District can use the research to assess the validity of claims to the Hayseed right by other developers.

Projects

Modular Office Project:

The new electrical plans should be completed on January 11th. We’ll be submitting our building permit to the County once the plan set is complete.

Master Meter Upgrade Project

The project is complete. We are continuing to read the master meters manually to verifying the reads to ensure accuracy.

Beacon Meter Upgrade Project

LTWD staff have been coordinating with our material supplier and an experienced installation contractor to create our Request for Proposal. There are still some unresolved questions and concerns. I have concerns that the new BEACON meters may not work in all parts of the District. The manufacturer is developing a newer model that should take care of the poor cellular coverage areas. Initial tests are promising, but the newer model is not available for delivery (yet). Hopefully later this quarter. I will want to field test these meters before we begin the mass change out of all the meters. We also have a fallback plan to revert back to a drive-by system for our most remote areas.

Orion CE Orion LTE Orion ME Drive by Cellular Drive by Currently Using Currently Testing Fallback Plan

Photo not available for the LTE(M).

All 3 systems (LTE, LTE(M) and Orion ME) will publish the data into the EyeOnWater application that will be available to our customers. The downside is that data for the drive by (Orion ME) will only be updated on a monthly basis. I believe that we will only have a few hundred customer that will be on the Orion ME.

The material supplier is agreeing to replace any LTE endpoints that are unable to connect with an LTE(M) at their expense, and replace again with a Orion ME at their expense if the LTE(M) is unable to connect. The District should be able to limit our labor and material cost for the change outs. We’ll just have the challenge of keeping all the records up to date during every billing cycle.

37

Valve Exercising Program

This week we took delivery of our valve exerciser. One of our experienced Crew Leaders is developing our exercise program. Our goal is the exercise, assess the condition and/or repair every valve in the District over the next 5 years. There are approximately 8,400 valves in the distribution system. The data collected will be entered into our GIS database.
