New Non-Potable Water Agreement 2. Title 22 Code of Regulations 3. Water Code 4. General Waste Discharge Requirements for Discharge of Recycled Water for Golf Course and Landscape Irrigation Recommendation By Minute Motion: 1. Approve Contract No.c296�o substantially to form; and 2. Authorize the City Manager to finalize and execute the Non-Potable Water Agreement ("Agreement") between the City of Palm Desert and the Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD) for water services at the Desert Willow Golf Resort. Backqround On September 12, 1996, the Agency entered into an agreement with the CVWD to utilize recycled water for irrigation of the Desert Willow golf courses. The Recycled Water Use Agreement ("Original Agreement") provided for the construction of an Effluent Delivery System and obligated the Agency to utilize effluent water at a flow rate of 300 acre feet per year, per golf course or 50 percent of the total water use for golf course irrigation. The term of the agreement was for a period of fifteen years. Under the terms of the Original Agreement if the Agency did not meet its water usage obligation, the Agency would pay the difference as established in Article 9 of the Agreement. The term of the Original Agreement has expired and the Coachella Valley Water District has proposed new parameters for water usage. Under the new terms of the five-year Contract N0. C29670 Staff Report CVWD Agreement April 8, 2010 Page 2 of 2 Agreement, the City (current Owner) would be obligated to utilize non-potable water for 80 percent of the total water usage at both Desert Willow golf courses. This Agreement is standard and the formula for the Non-potable Water Charge, set forth in section 8, has also been streamlined for all customers. The City's 80 percent usage obligation has been discounted to be 5 percent less than other non-potable water customers. Desert Willow staff has confirmed that the 80% usage goal is obtainable based on current water usage and its ease of use will be improved by the recent upgrades to the water filtration system. In August 2009, the City Council approved the implementation of new water filtration systems at each pump station. These new systems will allow for a more efficient filtration of the non-potable water source, and provides further protection of the entire irrigation system at the Desert Willow Golf Resort. The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the attached Agreement. Staff recommends approval of the Agreement in substantial form, and authorization of the City Manager to finalize and execute the Agreement. Fiscal Analvsis Water rates for the non-potable water remain the same. The fiscal impact to the City at this time is the cost of the non-potable water for the Desert Willow Golf Resort if 80 percent non-potable water usage is not achieved. With the recent filtration system upgrades, utilizing 80 percent non-potable water for the golf course can be achieved.

RECITALS A. The Coachella Valley's aquifer is in a state of overdraft. B. It is in the best interest of the District and Customer to protect the aquifer in order to ensure the long term economic health of the region. One way to protect the aquifer is to promote the use of nonpotable water sources such as recycled water and/or raw imported water in place of groundwater. C. District owns and operates three Water Reclamation Plants ("Plant"), capable of producing and providing recycled water to customers. In addition, the District operates the Coachella Canal and the Mid-Valley Pipeline both of which serve imported water. Recycled water and imported water both may be beneficially used for golf course and/or landscape irrigation in place of groundwater with certain exceptions. 1 D. California Water Code Section 32600-32603 requires the use of nonpotable water source(s), including recycled water, for irrigation when a suitable nonpotable water source is available and it is of suitable quality, available at a reasonable cost, and meets all conditions of these sections and other applicable laws. E. Customer desires to use such nonpotable water provided by the District for golf course and landscape irrigation. Irrigation water shall be from the following sources in the indicated order of priority and up to the available amounts of each: 1) recycled water; 2) imported water; and 3) groundwater,to the extent available and subject to the terms of this Agreement. F. The Parties understand and agree that nonpotable water is an interruptible water supply. NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS: l. DEFINITIONS a. Groundwater—Water produced through wells from any aquifer underlying the Coachella Valley. b. Nonpotable Water—Recycled water produced by District's water reclamation plants and/or raw imported water delivered by the District's Coachella Canal. c. Nonpotable Water Charge ("NPWC")—The District's price for nonpotable water delivered determined by the formula set forth in Paragraph 8-B herein. d. Point of Connection—The point of delivery of nonpotable water from District's facilities to Customer's facilities. e. Pumping Costs ("PC")—The pumping cost is the cost of electrical energy required to pump an acre foot of water through a well. For purposes of establishing the PC, Customer will provide pump test data, including a cost analysis for the wells that are Customer's alternate water supply for irrigation. If Customer has more than one well to use as the groundwater supply source, the pumping cost will be prorated based on well capacity and the average cost to pump an acre foot of water. £ Replenishment Assessment Charge ("RAC")—The District has a RAC for groundwater production in each of three separate areas of benefit within the District's service area, an "area of benefit" being that geographic area benefited by recharge of the groundwater, primarily with imported water. The RAC is a fee charged to producers pumping more than twenty five (25) acre feet annually to raise funds to purchase replacement water supplies to recharge the aquifer or to fund other projects that enhance groundwater supplies. The RAC is adjusted annually by the District by Ordinance adopted by the District's Board. The annual adjustment of the RAC will be reflected in the NPWC, as described in Paragraph 8-D below. 2 2. FACILITIES The District and Customer hereby agree that the Point of Connection (POC) for this agreement is described as follows: 1. District has constructed, owns, operates, maintains and repairs manifold, valve, meter, and all electrical appurtenances in the vault and telemetry including radio, RTU, PLC, bladder level and pressure sensors, flow meter and remote read display. Point of connection is at the meter. 2. Customer has constructed, owns, operates, maintains and repairs all pipelines, valves, and impoundment located from the POC and throughout the irrigation system. 3. SOURCES OF IRRIGATION WATER Customer understands that District's nonpotable water supply is subject to interruption and that at times Customer may be required to meet its irrigation demands with groundwater, either solely or in conjunction with the District's available supply of nonpotable water. For that reason, Customer shall have a backup supply available (groundwater) equal to One Hundred Percent(100%) of its peak irrigation water demands, and Customer's irrigation system shall be capable of operating in tandem with the District's facilities in arder to augment District deliveries as and when required. Nonpotable water shall be the Customer's primary source of irrigation water and shall be used to the maximum extent practical, subject, however, to the requirement that in the irrigation of golf courses and related landscaping, at least Eighty Percent(80%) of said irrigation shall be with nonpotable water. See Paragraph 8-E below regarding a surcharge for noncompliance with this requirement. Groundwater shall be the secondary source of irrigation water and, except as noted in the next paragraph, shall be used only to the extent required to meet Customer's irrigation water demands that are not met by District's nonpotable water. The foregoing notwithstanding, Customer may use groundwater rather than nonpotable water in the following situations: a. Specialized irrigation where the use of groundwater is deemed necessary by the professional landscape community such as golf greens or plants or planting material having special needs; b. Lake or water feature "makeup"water; c. Periodic irrigation system and lake or water feature maintenance (purging); d. Public road medians; e. Indoor uses; 3 f. Food service area perimeters. 4. WATER QUALITY, REGULATORY APPROVALS, VIOLATIONS a. District's Nonpotable Water Nonpotable water source(s) shall be of a suitable quality for the irrigation of landscaping, and the recycled water component shall meet the requirements of Section 60301.230 of Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations, including any amendments thereof, subject to availability as enumerated in Paragraph 5 below. b. Regulatory Compliance In connection with the use of nonpotable water by Customer, Customer shall obtain all necessary authorizations or approvals from regulatory agencies having jurisdiction and shall at all times comply with the provisions of its waste discharge permit or a general permit issued by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Colorado River Basin Section, General Order No. 97-700 (Exhibit"A"). In reference to this subparagraph, District agrees to cooperate and make a good-faith effort to assist Customer in obtaining all necessary authorizations or approvals from regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over the use of such nonpotable water and to conform to all such regulatory requirements. c. Reporting Violations Customer agrees to notify the District and the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Colorado River Basin Section, of any non-compliance with its California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Colarado River Basin Section, General Order No. 97- 700 within 24 hours of becoming aware of the failure. Customer also agrees to notify District prior to making any modifications that would result in a material change in the quality or quantity of nonpotable water discharged, or any material change in the location of discharge. 5. SCHEDULING a. District Interruptions The District shall use its best effort to complete delivery of the nonpotable water source(s) as soon as possible, subject, however, to nonpotable water availability. The District may cause interruptions of nonpotable water service due to scheduled maintenance, equipment malfunctions, and natural disasters creating an emergency condition. District shall give Customer 48 hours' notice of any scheduled maintenance which would interfere or interrupt nonpotable water delivery to Customer. District shall make every reasonable attempt to minimize any interruption relating to maintenance and shall, at all times, make a good-faith effort to facilitate the delivery of nonpotable water to Customer. b. Customer Interruptions 4 If Customer plans to interrupt delivery of nonpotable water from the District for a period longer than 48 hours, Customer and the District shall agree on a schedule for restoration of deliveries, and Customer shall provide the District with notice in writing for each additional day that nonpotable water delivery will be interrupted. Customer shall further make every reasonable effort to minimize any interruption relating to maintenance and shall, at all times, make a good faith effort to facilitate the acceptance of nonpotable water from the District. 6. DELIVERY PRESSURE The nonpotable water delivery by the District shall be delivered within the range of zero to 150 pounds per square inch (psi). The District will not be responsible or obligated to provide the pressurization of the irrigation system beyond the point of connection. 7. MANAGEMENT, INDEMNIFICATIONS Customer agrees to accept full and exclusive responsibility for the management and use of all nonpotable water delivered by the District from and after the point of connection and except for the negligence of District, defend and hold the District free and harmless from any responsibility for any type of damage to the real or personal property of Customer and the claims of any third party which may result directly or indirectly from management and use of such nonpotable water by Customer from said point of connection. Failure of electrical, electronic ar mechanical equipment shall not be construed as negligence or misconduct of the District. District agrees to accept full and exclusive responsibility for the management and delivery of the nonpotable water served by the District to and including the point of connection and except for claims and damage related to negligence on the part of Customer, defend and hold Customer harmless from claims related to said management and delivery of the nonpotable water. 8. WATER CHARGES a. Invoices The District will invoice Customer monthly for the use of nonpotable water. The amount of the invoice will be the product of the NPWC multiplied by the volume of nonpotable water delivered to the point of connection during the billing period plus any conservation charge (see Subparagraph"e" below). Nonpotable water will be measured in or converted to acre feet for invoicing. Payment shall be due within thirty (30) days of presentation of the bill. If not paid, the District shall provide a written Notice of Default to Customer before taking further action. b. Charges The NPWC is intended to be set at approximately 85% of the reasonable estimated cost of the pumping groundwater. It is understood that there may be incidental costs associated with using nonpotable water for irrigation and the discount between 100% and 85% of the cost of a groundwater supply can be used to offset these costs. The NPWC is derived as follows; 5 . NPWC = .85 (RAC +PC) Where: RAC = Replenishment Assessment Charge, see Definitions, Paragraph 1 above PC = Pumping Cost, see Definitions, Paragraph 1 above c. PC Adjustments � The PC will be adjusted annually to account for changes in electrical costs and pumping plant efficiencies. Customer must provide new pump test data including a pumping cost analysis that shows the average cost per acre foot for the wells used by Customer as its alternate water supply. It will be the responsibility of Customer to provide an updated analysis each year prior to May 31 so that the updated NPWC can be calculated. If Customer fails to provide an updated pumping cost analysis, the PC will be increased 15% over the prior year's cost. d. NPWC Adjustments The NPWC will be adjusted July 1 of each year. The District will notify Customer by letter dated on or before June 15 of each year of the NPWC to be used for the twelve-month period beginning on July 1. The updated NPWC will use the updated RAC plus the updated PC as described in Subparagraphs 1-f and 8-c above. e. Conservation Charge There will be a Conservation Charge invoiced to Customer for any year wherein the gross annual water use for golf course and landscape irrigation does not equal or exceed 80%nonpotable water. This Conservation Charge revenue will be used by the District to fund conservation programs designed to protect the aquifer, in keeping with the intent of this agreement. The District will determine the total number of acre feet used below 80% by Customer in the fiscal year. The fiscal year shall be from July 1 to June 30. On the monthly invoice described in Subparagraph 8-a, the District will provide an update on Customer's performance in meeting this 80% requirement. The Conservation Charge will be calculated by multiplying the number of acre feet below 80% by one-half of the NPWC. An invoice will be sent to Customer within thirty (30) days of the end of any fiscal year where Customer used less than 80%nonpotable water. 9. TERM The Term of this Agreement shall be for a period of five (5) years from its execution by the parties. The parties may extend or renew the Term on existing or modified terms and conditions as they can agree upon regarding any further renewal of the Agreement. At the end of any Term provided herein or any extension thereof, District shall not sell the nonpotable water provided to Customer in the Agreement to any other customer without first offering to sell the nonpotable water to Customer(the "offer") on the same terms and conditions proposed for the sale of the nonpotable water to said third party. Customer shall have thirty (30) days from its receipt of the offer in which to accept or reject the offer. The offer shall expire at 5:00 p.m. on the last day of the offer period unless before that time, Customer has given written 6 notice of acceptance of the offer. The offer shall contain the name of the proposed purchaser of the nonpotable water source(s), the proposed sales price, the terms of payment and other material terms and condition in which the sale of the nonpotable water source(s) is to be consummated. If Customer gives timely notice of the acceptance of the offer, then District shall be obligated to sell, and Customer shall be obligated to purchase, the nonpotable water at the price and on the terms and conditions of the offer. If Customer does not give timely notice of acceptance of the offer, District may sell the nonpotable water to any third person on the same term and conditions set forth in the offer. 10. DEFAULT Failure on the part of District or Customer to meet any condition or requirement of this Agreement, other than as a result of conditions beyond the control of District and/ar Customer, shall constitute a default. The nondefaulting party shall provide the other party with written notice of default before taking further action, and the other party shall have thirty (30) days from the date of the notice of default to cure same. In the absence of cure, the nondefaulting party may pursue all legal remedies available to it, including the termination of nonpotable water sources and/or suit to collect any outstanding charges due. 11. TERMINATION District shall have the right to terminate this agreement upon giving Customer one hundred twenty (120) days written notice of termination and shall have the right to amend same upon sixty(60) days written notice of the proposed amendment in which case Customer shall have the right to terminate the agreement effective upon thirty (30) days notice thereof to the District. In the event of termination, Customer shall be responsible for payment for deliveries of nonpotable water to the date of termination. In addition, The District may terminate delivery of nonpotable water in the event of mandatory changes in the requirements of nonpotable water from regulatory agencies (other than the District) having jurisdiction over nonpotable water and/or changes in its water quality which would cause the District to expend funds for capital expenditures to such an extent that the delivery of nonpotable water to Customer would no longer be economically feasible. Customer hereby waives any claim that it may have against and will defend and indemnify District against any claim by others for damage or economic loss resulting from the termination of nonpotable water service for any reason. District shall give Customer a minimum of sixty(60) days notice of its intent to permanently terminate nonpotable water service pursuant to this subparagraph. 12.
