APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW MAJOR FACILITIES OF A PUBLICE UTILITY GALETON WATER AND SANITATION DISTRICT WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT ENGINEER: Elmo G. Peterson, P.E. OWNER: Galeton Water and Urban Engineering, Ltd. Sanitation District P.O. Box 5146 P.O. Box 331 Greeley, CO 80631 Galteon, CO 80622 1r_ BFI :3 GALETON WATER and SANITATION DISTRICT P.O. BOX 331 , GALETON, CO 80622 Wastewater Treatment Facilities Use By Special Review Application FEBRUARY 1990 SUMMARY STATEMENT This application is for the use of about 3/4 acre of ground South of Galeton along County Road 51 for an aerated sewage lagoon system. A new sewage col— lection system is proposed which will collect wastewater from all houses and businesses in Galeton. The routing of the sewer lines is controlled by existing roads and alleys, the location of buildings, and the topography. Variations from the routes shown on the accompanying plan are necessarily very limited. Excerpts from the Galeton Service Plan are included which give additional in- formation on the requirements for the sewer service. The wastewater treatment system selected is an aerated sewage lagoon system on land South of and downhill from the community. There are no other com- munities or community facilities within seven miles. Most of the land sit- uated so that it could be used is in the Willow Creek flood plain. The use- able sites within a mile of Galeton are part of privately owned farms and condemnation proceedings would be necessary in order to procure a site. The site selected and shown on the accompanying map is a weed patch on the abandoned railroad grade and has been classified by the County Assessor as "wasteland". It has been a weed patch for 20 years. It is proposed to plant native grasses within the site along with some mini- mum maintenance shrubs and trees. The embankments to contain the lagoons will extend above the surrounding ground so the lagoons will be relatively invisible from the adjacent county road. The District will hire one person to work part time in taking samples, main- taining equipment, and maintaining the site. No water except the treated sewage water will be used at the site. A watering system will be included in the construction work so the grass, shrubs, and trees can be watered occasionally. The watering will be accomplished with a 1 hp pump. The lagoon aerator will have a 3 hp motor. Treated wastewater will be released to Willow Creek near where it crosses County Road 51 . ex in ft e Zjt -1- ; DEPARTMENT OF HEALTh it; 1516 HOSPITAL ROAC GREELEY, COLORADO 80631 ADMINISTRATION (303) 353.058E yggy'q HEALTH PROTECTION (303) 353.0635 } �1.

Hill: An inspection of your property at 24857 — 1st Street, Greeley, Colorado on December 16, 1986 by Patrick Shepherd of this department, revealed sewage effluent from the non-compliant Town of Galeton's sewage disposal system being discharged into Willow Creek. Please be advised that the above sewage disposal system is in violation of Weld County Individual Sewage Disposal System Regulations, as follows in part: Sec. 3. 1 "General Sanitation Requirements: The owner of any structure where people live, work, or congregate shall insure that the structure contains an adequate, convenient, sanitary toilet and sewage disposal system in good working order. Under no condition shall sewage or effluent be permitted to be discharged upon the surface of the ground.. . ." Therefore. you are required to respond within 30 days upon receipt of this notice. Also, please be advised that the discharge from this non-compliant system is in violation of the Colorado Revised Statute, as follows in part: 25-8-501 Permits required for discharge of pollutants - administration. (1) No person shall discharge any pollutant into any state water from a point source without first having obtained a permit from the division for such discharge Therefore, you are hereby notified that any discharge to State waters without a Discharge Permit, issued by the Water Quality Control Division, is a violation of Colorado Statute 25-8-501. You are further advised to cease any unauthorized discharge until such time as a Discharge Permit has been issued by the Division.

From a wildlife viewpoint this should not create any serious negative impacts. As the construction activities will be primarily in the streets, alleys and highway the impacts will be minor in nature. Since the Health Department as well as other agencies involved in the A-95 process are all involved and will be making comments as to requirements, I will not comment further.

Larry M. Wright, Member DETAILED REPORT A copy of Addendum No. III, Revised 1-8-90, is included herewith. It con- tains an analysis of two alternate wastewater treatment systems, cost esti- mates, site location and sizes, and budget considerations. The aerated sewage lagoon system selected will be relatively unrecognizable from the adjacent roads and will present a more pleasing appearance than the adjacent wasteland areas. It will remove a small area of weeds and re- place it with shrubs and trees. This will most probably enhance the site for wildlike, especially birds. No historical, archaeological or scenic re- sources will be affected. Letters from several agencies are attached. Willow Creek is adjacent to the facility and a flood plain has been defined. The proposed treatment ponds are above the high water line of Willow Creek. Provisions for allowing the local drainage to reach Willow Creek will be made. Within the development site, most of the rain water will flow into the sewage lagoons and then out the outfall with the treated effluent. The development will not cause a drainage problem. The attached map shows the proposed aerated sewage lagoons and an alternate stabilization lagoon system. The aerated lagoon system was selected be- cause of its lower cost and smaller impact on existing or future commercial development. It is proposed that the sewerage system be fully funded and constructed in 1990. The proposed facilities are planned to accommodate the expected com- munity growth for at least the next 20 years. The project has been dis- cussed at many community and public meetings starting with a meeting in Galeton on April 23, 1987. A notice of this meeting was published in the North Weld Herald and printed notices were hand delivered to all homes in.

We are certain that adequate public notice of the construction of sewer system facilities has been made. Emergencies that might occur in the District will require a response from the maintenance man hired by the District, from one or more members of the Board of Directors of the Galeton W&S District, or from the Galeton Fire District. Such emergencies and responses are as follows: 1 . Sewer line overflow: A Board Member or the maintenance man will hire a sewer cleaning service to clear the blockage. 2. Sewage lagoon overflow: A Board Member or the maintenance man will clear the overflow pipe on the final lagoon so that normal effluent release can occur. 3. Person or domestic animal in a lagoon: The Galeton Fire Department rescue squad or the Weld County Sheriff should be notified if persons who notice the emergency can not handle it. 4. Lagoon fencing broken or down: The Galeton W&S District maintenance man should be notified and arrange for repairs. 5. There are presently five Galeton W&S District Board Members: William Warren 454-2478 or 482-1056 Glen Hill 454-2078 or 454-2074 Manuel Salazar, Jr. 454-2045 or 350-9376 Robert Pfenning 454-2928 Ricky Cecil 454-2512 The Galeton Fire Department and The Weld County Sheriff 911 This proposed sewage collection and treatment system is in accordance with Weld County Comprehensive Plan in the following particulars: o As a small unincorporated community with a repair garage, a post office, a grocery store, churches, a fire department, a Lions Club, and a school, it serves the surrounding agricultural and industrial activities in an excellent manner. There already exists an adequate water system as provided 'by North Weld Water District. Tie sewer system will mitigate the pollution caused by inadequate and failing septic tanks, leach fields, outdoor toilets, and other waste disposal systems. o The provision of the sewerage system will allow infill of existing vacant plotted lots in a viable community. Five sewer taps to serve present vacant lots have already been reserved by the lot owners. This certainly indicates the need for the facility. o This facility will promote the development of affordable quality hous- ing for residents who desire a rural setting for their home. The fa- cility will not encourage the residential development of agricultural land because the existing topography will not allow much land to be served, and because the facility will not accommodate a lot of growth. At any rate, the development of rural housing inside and outside the community will be compact because of fiscal restraints on utility costs. SECTION I SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION A. SUMMARY The Galeton community is in need of improved wastewater collection and treat- ment facilities in order to grow and to improve the sanitation of the area for the adults and children living in the area. An existing sewage collection and treatment system serving aportion of the town is inadequate and in violation of Weld County, and State of Colorado regulations. It needs to be replaced. The Triangle Cross Ranch on the North side of the community has intentions of adding new residential houses and will need an adequate wastewater treatment system. The Farmers Home Administration office which deals with housing loans has refused to loan money for new homes in Galeton. This report shows that the least expensive alternate for improving the sanitation environment in the community is to construct a new wastewater collection system and a stabilization lagoon system for treatment of the wastewater. This can be financed by a loan and grant from the Farmers Home Administration in addition to tap fees to be assessed to all the users. A grant from the Weld County Hous- ing Authority will assist low income residents in affording the Tap Fee and the cost of their service line. B. CONCLUSION The Galeton Civic Association should proceed with formation of the Galeton Water and Sanitation District. Then the newly formed District should: 1. Contract for the services of the Attorney and the Engineer, 2. Apply for State approval for constructing the proposed collection and treatment system, 3. Obtain a grant and loan from Farmers Home Administration, 4. Investigate other funding that may be available, 5. Authorize design of a wastewater collection and treatment system, 6. Take bids for the system, • 7. Contract for construction of the system, 8. Assess Service Fees and begin repayment of the loan. oce<_r;:;.� I-1 SECTION II GENERAL INFORMATION A. PURPOSE OF PLAN The community of Galeton has reached a point in its life where improvements in the public facilities need to be made in order for the community to survive. A good source of water has been available for a number of years. The density of the housing somewhat controls the ability to make improvements to the roads, lawns, shrubs, and other aesthetic and health features in town. Individual sewage systems (septic tanks and leach fields) need large areas and ample sep- aration between them and the houses in order to prevent hazardous conditions. The community first needs a sewage collection and treatment system before it can address the other aspects of community improvement. A significant number of the residents realize this fact and have formed the Galeton Civic Association in order to start the process of community improvement. They wish to form the Galeton Water and Sanitation District first so as to have a viable government body to address the problem. Colorado statues providing for such action require that the County Planning Commission, the County Commissioners, and the State Courts be fully informed as to the need for and viability of a quasi-municipal organization prior to authorizing its formation. State and Federal funding authorities also need this information prior to granting and loaning funds to the community for con- structing the necessary improvements. This Service Plan addresses those informational needs by presenting data on the population, facility needs and requirements, economics, existing develop- ments, and a plan for improving the community. B. SERVICE AREA The area now known as Galeton was subdivided in 1909 as the town of ZITA. An area of 61 acres on the south side of Weld County Road 74 in Sections 5 — 6 — 64 and 6 — 6 — 64 was included in the initial subdivision and the First Addition to VATA. This subdivided area is partially developed into homes and businesses. In addi- tion, an area North of WCR 74 and West of Weld County Road 51 has been split into 10 parcels of land that are developed into commercial and residential sites. This area is shown on the maps at the end of this section, Exhibit II-1 and Ex- hibit II-2. The proposed boundaries of the District are also shown on these maps. A recent development in Galeton is the Triangle Cross Ranch, Inc. North of the development discussed above. This organization provides a home environment for individuals that need a semi sheltered home. The Board of Directors is plann— ing to construct additional homes in the area and will need wastewater treatment. C. POPULATION ESTIMATES The population of Galeton has fluctuated up and down over the years as businesses have come and gone. The Union Pacific Railway served the area with tracks and facilities adjacent to Main Street but has long since discontinued service and removed the railroad tracks. A record of these population changes is not avail- able because the community has never incorporated as a town and is split by U.S. Census Districts. At present there are 44 housing units in Galeton that could be serviced by a sew— age collection and treatment system. In addition there is a grade school with 177 students and 21 teachers and full time employees, two churches, a Lions Club II-1 9C e3,z building, a grocery store, a service station and several other facilities that may need sewer service. A recent survey made by the Weld County Housing Authority showed the following: Number of houses surveyed 28 Number of people 85 Average per household 3.0 Using this average occupancy per house results in a population of 132 at present. The store, churches, and service station are each the equivalent of i person for wastewater contribution during a week. The school in Galeton has 177 students, 21 faculty and service personnel and several bus drivers. It serves students from kindergarten through the fourth grade and has a gymnasium with showers and a cafeteria. Using Weld County Health Department criteria, the school is equivalent to 50 people (5000 gallons per day) . A new septic tank and leach field system have recently been constructed at the school so it might not be added to the system until sometime after the system is in operation. The subdivided area of Galeton that is suitable and available for residential development, 6 square blocks, would accommodate an additional 30 to 35 homes and additional 6 to 10 businesses. The Triangle Cross Ranch will probably add 5 to 10 homes in the area north of WCR 74. Since water is available, it is reasonable to plan for doubling the present wastewater load if the additional capacity can be provided with only a small, 157.t, increase in the cost of the treatment facility. D. LAND USE AND ZONING The entire community of Galeton and the surrounding area is zoned Agricultural. Farming is a predominant use of the land adjoining the community. New homes and businesses in the proposed service area are permittted after the owner obtains a building permit from the County Building Department. It is expected that some new homes will be built on vacant lots and that new businesses may start up on the vacant land previously occupied by the Union Pacific. The zoning does not include a land use catagory for a wastewater treatment faci- lity, either lagoons or mechanical plants. This use can be permitted only after approval of a "Use By Special Review". An application for the land use must be submitted to the Weld County Planning Commission for consideration at the same time that a State Health Department application for Site Approval is submitted. The two applications will follow similar paths to the Weld County Board of Commissioners for approval. Then the Site Approval application will go to the State Health Department. The criteria for approval of a Wastewater Treatment site is as follows: 2.2.5 CRITERIA FOR DIVISION OR COMMISSION DECISION MAKING (1) The Division shall review the site application and report, and in making its determination as to whether or not to approve or deny, shall consider a number of factors including: (a) Designation of the legally responsible entity and the legal description o£ the location; II-2 ()('4- A ., • • (b) The existing domestic wastewater treatment facilities and feasibility or cost effectiveness of treating wastes in an areawide facility as it relates to long-range planning. (c) Relationship to and potential effect of proposed faci- lity on any water supply intake; (d) In accordance with the policy declared in 2.2.3 (2)(7) the ability of the applicant to manage the site to minimize the potential adverse impacts on water quality; (e) Location of proposed project to any flood plain; (f) Impact on public health, welfare, and safety; (g) Proper notice; (h) Review and comment of all required local government agencies and all planning agencies including recommendations for approval or disapproval with any conditions which should be a part of the Division approval; (i) Long-range comprehensive planning for the area as it affects water quality; and (j) The policies set forth in 2.2.3. (2) The Division will act expeditiously on all complete applications which have been submitted. The Division will ask for review and comments from other agencies; however, the Division will make the final decision regarding approval or disapproval of the application (3) If the application is denied, the Division will specify which items were not satisfied by the application and what measures the applicant may take, if any, to satisfy requirements. • (4) All site approvals become effective on the date of approval by the Division and will expire one year from the date of approval. Any project not commencing construction on or before that date must reapply or request a time extension. If there are no sig- nificant changes from the original application, this can be accomplished by a letter request. r y s-x II-3 E. ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS Galeton is a community with a large percentage of low to moderate income families so the monthly fee per household for operation, maintenance, and loan repay- ment must be kept as low as possible. The census data for the area includes the farming community north, east and south of Galeton so it includes many non- urban families. However, this data shows that more than half of the house- holds have an annual income of less than $17,500. 1980 census data shows the following: North of WCR 74 South of WCR 74 Median Annual Income $9,886 $14,943 Mean Annual Income $20,121 $16,456 A recent survey of Galeton for which 28 of the 40t households responded shows that 14 of the 28 families have a gross annual income below $15,000. The monthly cost for sewer service should not exceed $20.00 in order for it to be affordable by these low to moderate income families. Grants-in-aid must be obtained to cover at least half of the cost of sewer lines and the treatment system. Grant money for a portion of the cost may be available through the Colorado Division of Local Affairs. The money would come from the Energy Impact Fund or from the Community Development Block Grant Funds. An application for a grant has been prepared, and it is a request for funds to improve the homes for low and moderate income families as well as pay for the service line construction and the plant investment fee. The Farmers Home Administration is the primary Federal agency that assists in rural projects such as this one. An application for a loan and a grant has been submittted to FmHA. The community fits the criteria for loan and grant funds and may be able to receive primary funding from that source. The monthly sewer fees will include interest, loan repayment, operation, and maintenance costs. Attempts should be made to keep the O. and M. costs as low as possible by designing around facilities without mechanical and electrical equipment. 0,f0584 4J II-4 _s 4871�.. —RliCtl-, ( \ / x -2 ‘.,��.v.

GALETON WATER AND SANITATION DISTRICT WELD COUNTY, COLORADO EXISTING BUILDINGS AND LOTS II-6 EXHIBIT It.4.1:)lit.1 SECTION III EXISTING FACILITIES A. WASTEWATER SYSTEM ALONG WCR 74 A community wastewater system has been serving some of the residents in Gale- ton. Six homes along the north side of First Street, five homes near Pleasant Hill Avenue, the two churches, the Fire House, the grocery store, and the ser- vice station have a sewage collection system that flows eastward in First Street to a leach field east of Main Street and west of Willow Creek. The leach field is not functioning properly and the septic tank effluent is now flowing in an open ditch to Willow Creek. It flows southward in Willow Creek which crosses WCR 51 a half mile south of Galeton. Willow Creek runs into Lone Tree Creek about 2.3 miles southwest of Galeton, and Lone Tree Creek enters the South Platte River seven miles south of Galeton. The cooperative system was started in 1929 and has been enlarged and repaired several time since then. The system does not comply with Weld County and State Department of Health standards in several categories: 1. The sewer collection lines are all 4 inch diameter, the standard and requirements specify that 8 inch should be used. 2. The septic tank is 3000 gallons (2-1500 gallon tanks) the proper size for about 36 people (12 equivalent homes x 3 x 150%) is a capacity of 5200 gallons. 3. The leach field consists of 590 lineal feet of pipe. For a flow of 5200 gallons per day, this would require a percolation rate of less than one minute per inch. However, the percolation rate at the Triangle Cross Ranch north of WCR 74 is 22.5 minutes per inch. The percolation rate at the leach field location near Willow Creek is probably more nearly 20 to 30 minutes per inch, and the leach field is only about 5 to 10 percent as large as it should be. This inadequacy in leaching capacity is probably a major factor causing the failure of the system. Some corrective measures or entire re- placement of the collection and treatment system will be necessary to cure the problem. B. REMAINDER OF TOWN The other homes in Galeton utilize septic tank and leach field systems for treating and disposing of household wastewater. Percolation rates in the community are probably 10 to 30 minutes per inch. A leach line system with 2 feet wide trenchs should have a total length of trench equal to 165 feet minimum to 250 feet or more for a two bedroom house. A system of these sizes would certainly occupy most of the available rear lot and/or front lot for most of the homes. Most of the systems were probably installed prior to these formalized regulations and are probably inadequate. At least three of the homes are on 25 foot wide lots which certainly are in— adequate in size to accommodate a septic tank and leach field complying with Weld County Regulations for Individual Sewage Disposal Systems. It is a sit- uation that can best be solved by the installation of a community wide sewage collection and treatment system. C. WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM Galeton residents ,joined together years ago to provide a potable water system for the town. They own a water well, pressure tank, and distribution lines III-1 Pic 06R"l_ that serves 18 homes. Several homeowners have their own well for household water. The other homes in Galeton receive water from North Weld County Water District which supplys adequately treated water from Horsetooth Lake via a filter plant near Fort Collins. The Galeton water system does not provide chlorination or other treatment of the water, but it is tested for bacteria and is safe to use. One resident has a replaceable water filter on his supply line which becomes plugged after a months use. This may be caused by organic growths in the well or in the lines or by fine particles of sand and clay that enter the well with the water. An analysis of the residue on a filter of this type would show what the contamin- ation is, and then steps could be taken to aleviate the problem. The water supply system for Galeton appears to be adequate and will not re- quire immediate work. Efforts should be made first to cure the wastewater prob- lem. ,J4 :;d 2 III-2 I arj TRIANGLE CR RANCH 2 - 1500 GAI , n SEPTIC TANS © `N1 r WaCR74 lrf Sa r .. . ate . � � � ��=_ 41,41 c4/ 41T r. rp 1 IE u .1..

As shown on Exhibit II-4, the Town of Eaton is 7 miles west of Galeton. The Town of Gill is also 7 miles away. Both Lucerne and Barnesville are 9 miles from Galeton. It is not economically feasible to transport sewage wastes to any of these communities. There are no sewage treatment facilities less than 7 miles from Galeton. There is also no subdivision or group of homes within a 7 mile radius. For this reason, the Service Plan does not address the pos- sibility of cooperating with any other entity. OTHER SPECIAL DISTRICTS As mentioned in the Service Plan, Galeton residents can and do receive domestic water from North Weld County Water District, P.O. Box 56, Lucerne, CO 80645. The Water District includes Galeton and assesses a 5 mill tax on property within the proposed Galeton Water and Sanitation District. Other Districts that levy a tax on residents of Galeton are: 1 . Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District 1250 N. Wilson Avenue Loveland, Colorado 80537 2. West Greeley Soil Conservation District 4302 W 9th Street Road Greeley, Colorado 80634 3.

They are to be notified about the hearings for the formation of the Galeton Water and Sanitation Dis- trict. AREAWIDE WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT PLAN The Larimer-Weld Regional Council of Governments updated the Areawide Water Quality Management Plan in 1985. Since that time the LWRCOG has been dis- solved and the North Front Range Water Quality Planning Association has been created to promote regional water quality planning and coordination in Lari- mer and Weld Counties. The Association has adopted the planning principles set forth in the 1985 update by LWRCOG. 0411)A0't -2- ADDENDUM N0. III REVISED 1-8-90 INDEX PARAGRAPH PAGE A. Purpose of This Addendum 1 B.

Recommendation 12 SERVICE PLAN FOR WASTEWATER COLLECTION AND TREATMENT GALETON, WELD COUNTY, COLORADO ADDENDUM No. 3 November, 1989 A. PURPOSE OF THIS ADDENDUM This addendum presents refined calculations and engineering decisions about population growth, location of facilities, size of facilities, and costs. The information and decisions are the result of numerous discussions with area residents, Galeton Water and Sanitation District Board Members, Weld County Officials and staff, and other State and local staff members. The Service Plan was prepared in 1987 and needs to be updated for 1990 con- struction. It is anticipated that funding of the project will be finalized early in 1990 so that plans and specifications can be prepared and construc- tion contracts awarded during the year. The District Board has established a tap fee of $750.00 and is starting to collect this money from prospective users. B. SERVICE AREA The service area has been defined by the Weld County Commissioners when they created the Galeton Water and Sanitation District on June 22, 1989. The boundaries are the same as those proposed in the Service Plan. C. POPULATION ESTIMATES Several discussions about community growth have resulted in the conclusion ' that the population growth in Galeton will be much slower than projected in the Service Plan. The 3 percent growth rate per year should be revised downward to reflect the addition of only one new home every five years. There will also be one new living unit at the Triangle Cross Ranch every five years. There are 44 dwelling units in Galeton and it is anticipated that all of these will become users of the system. The Triangle Cross Ranch has two living units which will probably not be served immediately but may be added sometime in the future when their septic tank/leach field systems start mal- functioning. The anticipated 1990 users of the system are as shown on page V-1 of the Service Plan. D. SEWAGE FLOWS The Service Plan estimate of 1988 design sewage flow is still applicable. The estimate of future flows are revised as' follows: (Triangle Cross Home of 5 residents are estimated at 500 gpd.) Present (1990) Design Flow 15,300 gpd Year 1995, Additions 1 Residence 300 1 Triangle Cross 500 -1- Year 2000, Additions 1 Residence 300 gpd 1 Triangle Cross 500 Year 2005, Additions 1 Residence 300 1 Triangle Cross 500 Year 2010, Additions 1 Residence 300 1 Triangle Cross 500 Total year 2010 Sewage Flow 18,500 gpd The above sewage flow estimates are based on the Colorado Health Departments suggested 100 gallons per day per person flow. Actual water use records for Galeton residents were obtained from North Weld County Water District. The water use records for November, December, January, and February are tabulated below. The water use for these months should not include any garden and lawn watering and would be representative of sewage flows. Residence Daily Use, Gal. Residence Daily Use, Gal. 1 155 15 300 2 435 16 260 3 155 17 110 4 260 18 175 5 660 19 170 6 100 20 150 7 100 21 125 8 220 22 275 9 85 23 160 10 45 24 220 11 80 25 290 12 300 26 95 13 70 27 75 14 240 Total 5,010 Average 185 gallons per day per house. The two churches used 300 gpd, each. The garage used 155 gpd. The grocery store used 90 gpd. The two Triangle Cross water taps used 420 gpd total. The Galeton School used 1400 gpd. (Equivalent to 8 homes.) All of the above actual water use values are lower than the values used in the Service Plan by about 38%. If the stabilization lagoons are designed based on the State Department of Health recommendations, the facility could probably accommodate a 38% growth in addition to that projected above. The excess capacity could accommodate an additional 12 homes to be built bet- ween now and the year 2010. Alternately, the lagoons could accommodate adding the school to the system (8 equivalent homes) plus 4 homes in addi- tion to the 4 included above. In consideration of the information about actual water use and the revised projected growth figures, it is recommended that wastewater stabilization lagoon sizes be revised downward to 18,500 gallons per day instead of the 25,000 gallons per day recommended on page V-3 of the Service Plan. pal yt[ _ -2 E. WASTEWATER STABILIZATION LAGOONS The lagoons will be sized in accordance with "DESIGN CRITERIA FOR WASTE- WATER TREATMENT WORKS" as published by the Water Pollution Control Division of the Colorado Department of Health. The pertinent information is contained in Chapter 4, Section 7 of the manual. Location The Service Plan contains a Location Map, EXHIBIT II-1 , that shows two alter- nate locations in the south half of Section 5 or Section 6. Both of these sites are partially in the designated flood plain. The obtaining of permits for construction in the flood plain would take much more design and investi- gation than normal and construction costs for rip rap bank protection would add to the total cost of the facilities. In addition, neither of the land- owners are willing to negotiate for the sale of the land to the district. Other sites in Section 5 and 6 have been investigated and the choices have been narrowed down to a site in the Southeast Quarter of the Northeast Quarter of Section 6. This site is owned by Western Sugar Company. The site will be purchased by the District. It is shown on the accompanying map EXHIBIT A3-1 . Lagoon Sizes One of the design criteria for stabilizing lagoons is the requirement for a volume equal to 180 days of design flow. Total Volume = 180 days x 18,500 gpd = 3,330,000 gallons 444,000 cubic feet This volume should be divided into a primary lagoon, a secondary lagoon, and a polishing pond. The primary lagoon should be designed for not less than 0.5 pounds of BOD • per day per 1000 square feet of surface area. The secondary lagoon should be designed for not less than 1 .0 pounds of BOD per day per 1000 square feet of surface area so that it could handle the entire flow if the primary pond is out of operation. From page V-3 of the Service Plan: At 18,500 gpd, BOD Load = 38.5 lbs per day Primary lagoon area = 1000 sq. ft. x 38.5 x 2 = 77,000 sq. ft. Secondary lagoon area = z x 77,000 = 38,500 sq. ft. The pond depth should not be more than 5 feet. The polishing pond should have a detention time of not more than 36 hours nor less than 12 hours during the design life of the facility (20 years) . The total lagoon volume can be reduced by the amount of net evaporation during the 180 days. In Weld County this value is 20 inches. The average annual evaporation from pond surfaces is 55 inches and average rainfall at Galeton is 15 inches. This evaporation amounts to a volume of: 20" x (77,000 +38,500) + 12 = 192,500 cubic feet The net volume to be accommodated in the lagoons is: 444,000 cu. ft. - 192,500 cu. ft. = 251 ,500 cubic feet /(}q Y^q q qR. J�:� r. _. -3- With the above criteria the three lagoons can be sized as follows: Polishing pond at maximum flow: 12 hours x 18,500 gpd. = 9,250 min. Polishing pond at minimum flow: (Actual present water use) 36 hours x 15,300 gpd x 627 = 14,230 gallons max. USE a design volume of 12,000 gallons Select a 5 foot depth to minimize algea growth and side slopes of 1 vertical to 3 horizontal. Then: Average area = (12,000 gal. + 7.5 gal/cu. ft.) + 5' = 320 sq. ft. or 18' x 18' Pond bottom = 18' - 2 x 2.5' x 3 = 3' x 3' = 9 sq. ft. Pond surface = 18' + 2 x 2.5' x 3 = 33' x 33' = 1090 sq. ft. Use 2 feet of freeboard above the water surface. Top of embankment = 33' + 2' x 3 x 2 = 45' x 45' Polishing pond volume = 18' x 18' x 5' = 1 ,620 cu. ft. = 12,150 gal. Primary lagoon at 3' depth and 77,000 square foot surface area with length to width ratio of 2: i Lagoon surface width = (77,000 + 2)' = 200 feet Lagoon surface length = 400 feet Lagoon bottom size = 170' x 370' Lagoon volume = 185' x 385' x 3.0' = 213,000 cu. ft. = 1,602,500 gallons Secondary lagoon volume is the remainder of Total volume required minus Polishing Pond minus Primary Lagoon. 251 ,500 cubic feet - 1620 - 213,000 = 36,880 cu. ft. minimum Surface size for 38,500 sq. ft. = 140' x 280' Volume at 3' depth = 131 ' x 271 ' x 3' _ ' 106,500 cu. ft. With this volume for the secondary lagoon, the total detention time will exceed the required 180 days for the three lagoons. The embankment between lagoons and around the outside will have a top width of 10 feet and all bank slopes should be 1 :3. For creating the embankments, material will be excavated from the inside of the lagoons. A 3 foot free- board will be provided to prevent overtopping by wind driven waves. This would also provide several months of emergency storage capacity in event the outlet or a liquid transfer line gets plugged. A 2 ft. depth of excavation will provide sufficient material for the 4 ft. high lagoon embankments. The lagoon surface will average 1 foot above the surrounding terrain. The proposed site for the lagoons has a ground slope of 1 foot per 100 feet, sloping from North to South. Liquid transfer from lagoon to lagoon will be by gravity. Lagoon Construction The soils at the site are sandy silt with very little clay. The silts are apparently wind deposited and are very fine. Infiltration rates are very slow. The infiltration tests show rates of 15 to 30 minutes per inch of water infiltration in test holes. The porosity of the lagoon bottoms will need to be reduced by the addition of bentonite to the soil at a rate of 10 pounds per square yard or the addition of a clay liner in the lagoons. 4- Urn rAs For this clay liner, the lagoons would be over excavated one foot deep and filled with the clay material. Clayey material is located on the surface near Mason Reservoir two miles Northeast of the lagoon site. The liner should be 8" to 10" deep. The bentonite and clay application rates are in accordance with Soil Conservation Service Engineering Standard and Speci- fications No. Colo-521-C. The cost of a 9 inch clay liner will be about $15.00 per cubic yard in place. This will include payment for the material, excavation, transportation, plac- ing, and compaction. For the 9 inch layer on the 120,000 square feet the cost will be: 0.75 ft x 120,000 sq. ft. x 1/27 x $15.00 = $ 50,000 The alternate sealing method involves incorporating bentonite into the bottom and wetted side slopes at the rate of 1 pound/square foot. The bentonite will cost $4.50 per 50 pound bag. It will take 2 days to incorporate the benton- ite into the top 4" to 6" of the soil. The crew will consist of 4 laborers, a disk and tractor, a water truck, a flat bed truck, a fork lift, a rubber tired roller, and a grader. This equipment with operators and a supervisor will cost $500.00 per hour. The cost of this method of sealing the lagoons will be: Bentonite, 120,000 pounds @ %0.09 = $ 10,800 Equipment and Labor, 16 hrs @ $500.00 = 8,000 $ 18,800 The bentonite method of sealing the lagoons will be the least costly. The slope of the ground at the lagoon site is 0.9 feet per 100 feet, from North to South. The site is nearly level from East to West. The excavation and embankment will be balanced so that no import or export of material will be required. Aerated Pond System The naturally aerated lagoon system discussed above requires an area of 250' wide by 850' long. This system will require most of the beet dump site. The Board of Directors of the Sanitation District have decided that it would be bad for the economy of Galeton to request that the beet dump be moved. Toward that end of preserving the beet dump location, an alternate lagoon system has been designed. Aerating the primary lagoon with a surface aer- ator will reduce the land requirement by a factor of 5 or more. This amount of area could be removed from the beet dump site without seriously affect- ing the beet storage function. Three calculation sheets are included at the end of this report which de- fine the size and arrangement of an aerated primary pond and a combined secondary and polishing pond. The two functions of secondary stabilization and final settling will be separated by a plastic or rubber curtain wall. The bottom edge at the curtain wall will be weighted and rest on the bottom of the pond. Floats attached to the top edge of the curtain will keep it near the surface. An anchoring cable will be attached to the top edge and will be anchored at each side of the lagoon. -5- Of or- #:A'' Aerated Pond Sizes The pond sizes as determined in the calculations are as follows: Primary Pond Design Flow = 18,500 gpd Normal Depth of water at center = 10.0 feet Pond Bottom Size = 42' x 46' 8 foot high side slopes = 1 :3 Freeboard above water surface = 2.0 feet Pond Volume at normal depth = 43,500 cu. ft. Detention time at design flow = 17.6 days Secondary Pond and Settling Pond Minimum depth at inlet end = 4.0 feet Maximum depth at outlet end = 8.0 feet Pond size at water surface = 50' x 94' Freeboard = 2 feet Side slopes = 1:3 Pond volume = 150,000 gal Pond detention time = 8 days (5 days secondary treatment, and 3 days final settling) Aerator Size = 3 horsepower Air supplied = 5.25 lbs. 02 per hour Effective mixing = 37 ft. diameter at 10 ft. depth Effective 02 dispersion = 85 ft. dia. at 10 ft. depth 02 required for BOD = 50 lbs. 02 per day (10 hrs. ) Operate 12 hrs; 2 hrs ON, 2 hrs OFF Lagoon construction would be the same as previously discussed for naturally aerated lagoons. Both ponds would be lined with bentonite. The total area of surface to be sealed is 17,400 sq. ft. and the cost will be: Bentonite, 17400 lbs. x $0.09 = $ 1 ,570.00 Equipment and Labor, 8 hours @ $ 500.00 = 4,000.00 Contingency 430.00 $ 6,000.00 -6- fi. F. LAND COSTS Negotiations with Western Sugar Company have resulted in a tentative agree- ment for Western Sugar to relocate the sugar beet storage to a site about 5 miles south of Galeton. The conditions requested by Western Sugar are that the Galeton Water and Sanitation District obtain for Western Sugar Co. a 10 acre site with dimensions of 1100 feet long by 400 feet wide. The parcel should be oriented North-South. In addition the Western Sugar Co. request that the District pay for moving the weighing scale, the beet piler and for preparing the site to store beets. Telephone and electricity will be needed at the site. The site should be relatively level with good drainage. An estimated cost for complying with these request is as follows: Land 10 acres @ $1500/acre = $ 15,000.00 Site Preparation 10 acres @ 0.33/sq yd = 7,000.00 Move piler 1 Lump Sum 1,500.00 Move scales 1 Lump Sum 1,500.00 Telephone and Electric No Cost Total Cost $ 25,000.00 Alternate Arrangement Western Sugar Company has tentatively agreed to transfer 0.76 acres of the Galeton Beet Pile area to Galeton Water and Sanitation District in exchange for the cost of earthwork required in preparing the entire site for use in piling sugar beets. An abandoned railroad embankment on the east half of the property will be spread over the west half so that the available pile ground will be increased from 150 feet wide to 300 feet wide. The quantity of dirt to be moved is 6000 cubic yards. This land leveling is expected to cost $6,000.00. The sewer line through this beet pile ground will be constructed of cast iron pipe to prevent collapse when heavy equipment is used for handling beets. The sewer line will be be relatively shallow. G. CONSTRUCTION COST The U.S.G.S. maps of the area of Galeton do not adequately define the ele- vation of the ground at critical points in Galeton. Elevations of street intersections and street and alley intersections were obtained in order to define the location of sewer lines. The sewer line layout and a plan of the sewage lagoons is included in this Addendum. These plans were used to develop quantities touse for the cost estimate shown on the next page. Plans and sections of the lagoons were developed so quantities of earthwork could be estimated. The prices used in the estimate are based on recent bids for similar work. They have been adjusted for projected increases that may occur between now and Summer 1990.

LOANS AND GRANTS The Board of Directors of the District have begun to accept requests for sewer line taps and have been collecting tap fees. There will be about 45 taps sold initially. It is the conclusion of the Board that a monthly ser- vice fee of $12.00 to $16.00 would be as much as most resident families could afford. Loan repayments, 0&M costs, and funding for a reserve fund would all need to come out of the service fees. The discussion of Service Fees on Pages V111-2, -3, and -4 in the Service Plan are still applicable. The total cost to be financed is $325,000 less the total tap fees of $33,750 to be collected from 45 users. The monthly cost of loan repayment including $3.00 for Administration plus 0&M is as follows: 1 . Full loan: $291 ,250.00 at 7.5% for 40 years = $1 ,916.66 per month Loan Repayment: 1916.66 s 45 users = $45.60 Adm + 0&M = 3.00 MONTHLY PAYMENT $48.60 2. Half Grant/Half Loan at 7.5% for 40 years Loan Repayment: 45.60 t 2 = $22.80 Adm. + 0&M 3.00 MONTHLY PAYMENT $25.80 3. 75% Grant/25% Loan at 7.5% for 40 years Loan Repayment: 45.60 x 25% = 11.40 Adm. + 0&M 3.00 MONTHLY PAYMENT $14.40 A monthly service fee of this amount, $14.40 , would be much more affordable for low to moderate income families in Galeton. It would also be low enough that families might choose to live in Galeton. This fee would still be higher than any of the surrounding Weld County towns except Milliken. The monthly user fees for Weld County communities are shown on page VIII-1 of the Service Plan. Possible combinations of loans and grants are as follows: 1 . Farmers Home Loan of 25% _ $ 72,810 Farmers Home Grant of 75% = 218,440 2. Farmers Home Loan of 25% = 72,810 Farmers Home Grant of 25% = 72,810 Impact Assistance Grant of 50% = 145,630 Another source for loan money would be the State Water Pollution Control Revolving Fund. This fund and other sources of Grant Funds will be investi- gated during the next few months. cnCa F.;3,,1; -10- If the Aerated Pond Lagoon System is selected for construction, the total loan and grant is reduced to $275,800. A 25% loan will be $68,950 and the 759 grants will amount to $206,850.00. I. BUDGET The Galeton W & S District was formed too late in 1989 to assess a tax on the property within the District. The Board of Directors of the District have decided to request a 5 mil levy be placed on all property within the District. This issue will be put before the voters in the spring of 1990 at the same time that the election for members of the Board of Directors is held. The 5 mil levy on an anticipated $200,000 assessed value will bring in $1 ,000.00 per year which can be used for debt retirement. If this tax is continued, it will be used for debt retirement for the next 20-30 years. 1990 Budget INCOME Tap Fees, Net, Collected in 1989 $ 17,900.00 Taxes (First taxes generated will be in 1991) 0.00 Tap Fees, Paid in 1990 (49 x 809 x 750 - 19,900) 9,500.00 Loans 66,450.00 Grants 199,350.00 $ 293,200.00 EXPENDITURES Facility Construction 214,200.00 Land Cost 6,000.00 Operation and Maintenance ($80.00 per mo. x 5) 400.00 Legal 11 ,000.00 Engineering and Surveying 29,100.00 Soils Report 3,000.00 Resident Inspection and Administration 15,000.00 Administration and Contingency 5,000.00 Interest on loan (z year at 109) 3,500.00 Escrowed interest (1 year at 89) 6,000.00 $ 293,200.00 After construction of the sewer lines and sewage treatment facility, the Board will need to set a monthly service fee, establish a monthly billing and collection procedure, pay monthly utility bills, hire an operator to check the operation of the aerator and chlorinator and to take samples of wastewater. These samples will be tested and Health Department forms filled out monthly by a certified sewer plant operator from a neighboring community. -11- The 1991 Budget is based on data from similar sewer plants at Lake Knolls sub- division (32 homes) , and Johnsons Corner (32 equivalent taps). 1991 Operating Budget EXPENSES Colo.

RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Board of Directors apply to the Farmers Home Administration and to the Colorado Division of Local Affairs for a loan of one fourth of the project cost and a combination of grants amounting to three fourths of the project cost. The monthly user fee in the Dis- trict would be about $20.00 per month for loan repayment, interest, and 0&M costs. This monthly fee would he affordable for most of the residents. Only a few of them would need to request hardship assistance from some agency in order to pay their monthly utility bills for water, sewer, gas and electricity. c.1Or -.12 -12- • - —j—K A / .'‘' / , V J Q s'O�'11,: L'.
