MSL) elevation from Lavon Lake below the dead pool elevation of 453 ft. MSL. This pump station would provide operational flexibility and meet the goal of long-term reliability and drought resiliency.\nProvide transmission mains to convey flow to the north and south mixing area in the Wylie WTP complex and connections to existing transmission mains for operational flexibility.\nThe Engineer’s current opinion of probable construction cost (OPCC) is $453,000,000.\n\nMEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT\nAuthorization of Wylie WTP RWPS No. 4 project will have to go through a Non-Recreation Real Estate Outgrant process with USACE as the project requires use of USACE owned land. \nThe purpose of the memorandum of understanding (MOA) is to establish procedures, responsibilities, and financial obligations between the USACE and the NTMWD for support of the outgrant process. That process includes all National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and environmental compliance processes required for the activities associated with the development and long-term operation of the Wylie WTP RWPS No. 4 on USACE property at Lavon Lake. \nThe MOA will provide a mechanism by which the USACE can participate in the outgrant process that is required for project approval and outgrant issuance. The MOA will obligate NTMWD to pay all costs associated with that process. \n\t\n\nFUNDING \n\nFunding in the amount of $207,370  to the United States Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) is to be made available from the Regional Water System Capital Improvement Fund.\t\n\n","MatterTextRtf":"{\\rtf1\\fbidis\\ansi\\ansicpg1252\\deff0\\deflang1033\\deflangfe1033{\\fonttbl{\\f0\\fswiss\\fprq2\\fcharset0 Arial;}{\\f1\\fmodern\\fprq1\\fcharset128 MS Gothic;}{\\f2\\froman\\fprq2\\fcharset2 Symbol;}}\n{\\colortbl ;\\red255\\green255\\blue255;\\red255\\green0\\blue0;}\n\\viewkind4\\uc1\\pard\\ltrpar\\b\\f0\\fs24 Regional Water System\\b0\\par\n\\par\n\\cf1\\fs2 ..title\\par\n\\cf0\\b\\fs24 Wylie Water Treatment Plant Raw Water Pump Station No. 4; Project No. 101-0647-24; Memorandum of Agreement between the North Texas Municipal Water District and the United States Army Corps of Engineers\\b0\\par\n\\par\n\\cf1\\fs2 ..end\\par\n\\cf0\\ul\\b\\fs24 SUBJECT\\par\n\\i\\par\n\\cf1\\ulnone\\b0\\i0\\fs2 ..recommendation\\par\n\\cf0\\fs24 Authorize the Executive Director to execute a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) in the amount of $207,370 between the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and NTMWD for the Wylie Water Treatment Plant (WTP) Raw Water Pump Station (RWPS) No. 4 project.\\par\n\\pard\\ltrpar\\qj\\par\n\\cf1\\fs2 ..end\\par\n\\pard\\ltrpar\\cf0\\ul\\b\\fs24 PURPOSE\\i\\par\n\\pard\\ltrpar\\qc\\ulnone\\b0\\i0\\par\n\\pard\\ltrpar The purpose of this MOA is to provide a mechanism by which the USACE can fund their efforts for the review of a Non-Recreational Real Estate Outgrant permit, which will be a legal document that authorizes NTMWD the use or access to federally controlled real property in proximity to the Lake Lavon Dam to construct Raw Water Pump Station No. 4.
