ATTACHMENT TO APPLICATION
Service Area and Population
The South Rifle Village area currently contains approximately 550 people from 84 homes, 220
motel rooms and 64 apartments. The area has experienced a 2 - 3 % growth rate per year for
the past 50 years regardless of demographic factors. They anticipate this to continue to be the
trend. The City as a whole has experienced a higher rate of growth, thereby leading to the
decision not to tie the South Rifle area into the main Rifle Wastewater Plant because that would
deprive the Rifle plant of valuable g.p.d. capacity that has been allocated to accommodate Rifle's
steady growth rate.
The design for the expansion of this plant is to serve 895 housing units with a total population of
3125 people. This is slightly higher than the current 201 Study reflected. However the service
area is still consistent with the 1979 201 Study. See attached map for service area.
Flows and Discharges
The last discharge permit renewal issued for this site lists a flow capacity of 100, 000 g.p.d.. The
average yearly influent flow has been 56,000 g.p.d. for 1995 with the highest influent flow at
90,000 g.p.d. in July of that year. The effluent flow, for the same yearly period, was at 55,000
g.p.d. yearly average with July again being the highest month with 100,000 g.p.d.. The plant will
be expanded with a design flow of 250,000 g.p.d.
It is expected that the discharge parameters will remain the same as previous discharge permits
but a letter has been forwarded to the Planning and Standards Section of the Water Quality
Control Division requesting the anticipated proposed effluent limits. These limits are as follows;
30/45 mg/1 BOD5i 75/110 mg/I TSS, 6,000 count/100 ml fecal coliform, 0.5 mg/1 chlorine.
Water and Wastewater System
The existing facility now currently serves the South Rifle Village area. It will continue to serve
this growing community. The design and upgrade is such that a river crossing in order for the
wastewater to be treated by the Rifle plant will be unnecessary. As stated in the current 201
study, this upgrade of existing South Rifle facilities is the alternative that is the most highly rated
in terms of low environmental and non -economic impacts. This is due to the fact that this
alternative makes maximum use of existing facilities, does not pump sewage across the Colorado
River, has a low operating and maintenance costs, is reliable and easy to implement. It also
accommodates all projected growth in the area thereby leaving the City of Rifle plant available for
expansion and growth on the north side of the river, again this is consistent with the presentation
in the area's 201 Plan. The Graham Mesa Water Treatment plant is on the north side of the river
and it is not in close proximity to the South treatment plant. It is also upstream so the treatment
plant does not impact the City's drinking water quality (see attached five mile radius map). The
Beaver Creek Water Treatment plant is closer to the RVS W WTF but it is both upstream and
upgrade from the treatment plant again there would be no impact on the water treatment plant
(see attached five mile radius map).
Site Information
The site has been determined to be in the 100 year floodplain. This fact will be mitigated by
making all finished floors and berms have an elevation level V above the flood plain elevation. All
manholes will have water right lids. These conditions of construction are in compliance with the
Garfield County Floodplain Special Use Permit.
There are no other natural hazards present in the area of the facility.
Attached is a Quit Claim Deed showing that the City of Rifle owns the site. This indicates that
the control of the site will be in the City's hands not only for the duration of the expansion but for
as long as the facility exists.
Alternatives Considered
The alternatives that were considered before the decision to replace the lagoons at the existing
facility was made were a prepackaged plant, a mechanical plant and a expansion, upgrade of the
existing facility. The Town has decided to go with the upgrade to the existing facility for various
reasons. The land is available in order to develop additional ponds, aerated lagoons have the
lowest operating costs of any treatment, aerated lagoons are virtually trouble free and are energy
efficient. This option will also enable the City to expand this facility in the future, if need be,
without a large outlay of funds.
To address the alternative of abandoning'this existing facility and treating the wastewater at a
regional plant, while it is not impossible it is not feasible given certain problems. One of the
largest problems would be the construction of an adequate sewer outfall. There is a mesa on the
South side of the river that slopes directly to the river with a 2:1 slope. The soils there are
unstable as evidenced by signs of previous earth slides. On the North side of the river I-70
encroaches onto the bank thereby requiring that the bank is maintained with heavy rip -rap. The
same problem holds true when considering treatment by the City of Rifle plant across the river.
The impact of construction of a pipe to transport the wastewater from the south side of the river
to the north would be immeasurable. The severe disruption of recreation on the river and the
visual impact is so severe that this option is really not feasible to even consider. Pumping would
be exhaustive given that the elevation of the north side of the river at the West Rifle Interchange
is approximately three feet higher than the elevation at the existing south facility. This facility is
also hidden from view by a steep bluff at the south boundary.
However, the long range plan is to eventually consolidate the two facilities. This is planned to be
considered in approximately 10-15 years. This will be as a result of both plants, once again, each
reaching capacity, again as projected and consistent with the 201 Study. The consolidation will
be a more economic way of dealing with two potentially large capital expenditures. To
accommodate this planning the Town is considering taking ownership of a parcel of property
downstream that is suitable for such a venture.
Proposed Facility
The existing plant's capacity will be expanded to 250,000 g.p.d.. The existing ponds will be
abandoned and two or three aerated lagoons and one settling pond will be constructed. The City
already has the aerators required to aerate the new lagoons. The existing pretreatment building
will continue to be used, with the addition of a new bar screen. The existing chlorine building will
be used. However, the chlorination system will be changed from a tablet hypochlorite system to a
gas chlorination system. Also, the existing 30" pipe presently used as a chlorine contact channel
will be removed and replaced with a concrete chlorine contact channel. Additionally, the existing
single-phase electrical service will be replaced with three-phase service.
The facility's design flow of 250,000 g.p.d. is based upon the projected flows as given in the 201
Facility Plan Update prepared by ARIX in 1979. At a capacity of 250,000 g.p.d., the facility will
be able to serve approximately 895 units or a population of 3,125 people. The per capita loading
is 100 g.p.c.d. for maximum daily flow and 80 g.p.c. d. for average daily flow. All components of
the facility will be designed for the same capacity.
The existing 12" Palmer Bowlus flume with continuous recorder will continue to be used. The
recommended range for this flume is 11,000 g.p.d. to 1,100,000 g.p.d..
The existing influent channel shall have manual bar screen installed upstream of the P -B flume if
the existing geometry will allow it. The bar screen should be constructed with aluminum bars and
shall have an opening width between bars of V-2". The bar screen will be constructed so that
screenings can be raked up to a drain plate that will allow water to drain from the screenings back
to the influent channel. These screenings will then be placed into a plastic trash can and
eventually disposed at a landfill.
There will be either two or three aerated lagoons. If two lagoons are constructed, the dimensions
at the water surface of each will be 335'x 170'x 8' deep with 3:1 side slopes and 3' of freeboard.
This provides a total volume of approximately 717,800 cubic feet (5.369 MG) and a total
detention time of approximately 21.5 days. The first lagoon will be aerated with 5-5hp surface
aerators, the second lagoon will be aerated with 2-5hp surface aerators. If three lagoons are
constructed, the dimensions at the water surface of each will be 250'x 125'x 8' deep with 3:1 side
slopes and 3' of freeboard. This provides a total volume of approximately 554,400 cubic feet
(4.147 MG) and a total detention time of approximately 16.6 days. The first lagoon will be
aerated with 5-5hp surface aerators, the second lagoon will be aerated with 3-5hp surface
aerators, and the third lagoon will be aerated with 1-5hp surface aerator. This is based on an
assumed clean water standard oxygen transfer rate (SOTR) of 3.0 lbs/hp-hr for the surface
aerators. All of the aerated lagoons will be lined with a Hypalon or HDPE synthetic liner.
keep this plant maintained and running. Of the total revenue generated in the entire Rifle area,
approximately 35% is allocated to the South Rifle Plant. Please see attached copy of the Rifle
proposed budget.
Plan Implementation and Schedule
The design memo for this project has been completed and submitted to the City of Rifle. Our
final design for the facility will be completed by the end of August 1996. At that time we will put
out an invitation to bid, the process of which should be completed by the end of September.
Dependant on approval of this site application, we could conceivably start construction as early
as October 1996. However due to weather conditions and availability of local contractors we
may have to wait as late as early Spring of 1997 in order to begin construction. At the latest this
project should be complete and ready for operations by late June 1997.

10.10.100 Review of Service Levels and Fee
The City shall have the right to annually review all actual water consumption and sewer EQR
classification levels, and water and sewer system improvement fee amounts, based upon actual use,
with the first review to occur at any time after twelve (12) months but prior to eighteen (18)
months after the issuance of a certificate of occupancy or actual occupancy of any premises served,
whichever last occurs. If the City desires such review, it shall within the above-mentioned time
for review provide written notice to the owner of the premises served at the owner's last known
address. Within thirty (30) days of sending such notice the City Manager or his designee shall
make a written determination of whether the EQR level, based on actual use, varies from the level
upon which EQRs were originally assessed.
If actual water consumption exceeds the maximum annual demand permitted under Section
10.10.060(3), the City shall assess an additional water system improvement fee equal to the
difference between the water system improvement fee due for the next larger tap and the tap fee
paid. (For example a 3/4" commercial/industrial tap using 500,000 gallons in one year shall pay
an additional water system improvement fee of $1,077, equal to the difference in water system
improvement fees for a 3/4" and 1" tap). If actual sewer use shows that a larger number of EQR
units, or proportions of EQR units, is assessable in accordance with the classifications set forth in
section 10.10.070, then the owner of the premises served shall be charged an additional sewer
system improvement fee for the EQR units attributable to actual use.
(Ord. 10.95 §l, 1995)
10.10.110 Appeal Procedure
Any customer aggrieved by a determination of the City with regard to the amount or method of
calculation of a water or sewer system improvement fee, or revised fee, may appeal such
determination to the City Manager or his designee. The customer shall -furnish the City Manager
or his designee with any factual information the customer believes shows that the City's
determination was in error. Upon review of the evidence submitted by the customer, but in no
event more than thirty (30) days after submission, the City Manager or his designee shall issue a
decision concerning the customer's grievance.
Any customer may appeal an adverse decision of the City Manager or his designee to a Hearings
Officer, who shall be appointed by the City Council and who shall have the power to make
adjustments as set forth in this paragraph. The City Council may appoint itself to act as a hearing
officer and when so acting shall act by majority vote. The customer shall file a request for appeal
with the City Manager or his designee within fifteen (15) days of the decision of the City Manager
or his designee. The matter shall then be set for a hearing before the Hearings Officer, and the
City shall provide the customer with ten (10) days' written notice of the time, date, and place of
the hearing. At the hearing, the customer and City shall have the opportunity to present testimony
and evidence to the Hearings Officer. Within fifteen (15) days of the close of the hearing, the
Hearings Officer shall issue a decision. The Hearings Officer shall have the power to make an
adjustment of a water or sewer system improvement fee if the customer has demonstrated, by a
preponderance of the evidence, one or more of the following:
A. The customer has been charged the incorrect water or sewer system improvement fee;
