1. INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES
Water supply has always been a key issue in the development of Texas. In recent years, the increasing
population and economic development of North Central Texas have led to growing demands for water
supplies. At the same time, local and less expensive sources of water supply are largely already
developed. Additional supplies to meet future demands will be expensive and difficult to secure.
Severe drought conditions in recent years have highlighted the importance of efficient use of our
existing supplies to make them last as long as possible. This will delay the need for new supplies,
minimize the environmental impacts associated with developing new supplies, and delay the high cost
of additional water supply development.
Recognizing the need for efficient use of existing water supplies, the Texas Commission on
Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has developed guidelines and requirements governing the development
of water conservation and drought contingency plans for municipal uses by public water suppliers. The
TCEQ guidelines and requirements are in Texas Administrative Code Title 30, Part 1, Chapter 288
Subchapter A, Rule §288.2 and Texas Administrative Code Title 30, Part 1, Chapter 288 Subchapter B,
Rule §288.20. The City of Wylie (City) has developed this Water Conservation Plan to be consistent with
TCEQ guidelines and requirements. The best management practices established by the Water
Conservation Implementation Task Force, established pursuant to SB1094 by the 78th Legislature were
also considered in the development of the water conservation measures.
The City is located in Collin, Dallas and Rockwall Counties, and is bordered by the cities of St. Paul and
Lucas to the north, Murphy to the west, Sachse and Rowlett to the south, and Lavon and Ray Hubbard
Lakes to the east. The land area of the City is 21.01 square miles. As of December 31, 2018, the City's
population is approximately 52,000.
The City purchases treated water from the North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD). NTMWD is a
regional wholesale supplier for 13 Member Cities and numerous other customers in Collin, Dallas,
Denton, Rockwall, Kaufman, Hunt, Hopkins, Fannin, and Rains Counties in North Central Texas. The
NTMWD currently provides water for over 1.7 million people. The City does not wholesale any of this
purchased water from NTMWD to other customers. All of the City's wastewater is treated by NTMWD at
the Muddy Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant, which has permits for effluent back to Lake Ray Hubbard
through Muddy Creek.

6. BASIC WATER CONSERVATION STRATEGIES
6.1 Metering, Water Use Records, Control of Water Loss, and Leak Detection
and Repair
One of the key elements of water conservation is tracking water use and controlling losses
through illegal diversions and leaks. It is important to carefully meter water use, detect and
repair leaks in the distribution system and provide regular monitoring of real losses.
6.1.1 Accurate Metering of Treated Water Deliveries from NTMWD
Water deliveries from NTMWD are metered by NTMWD using meters with accuracy of
±2%. These meters are calibrated on an annual basis by NTMWD to maintain the
required accuracy.
6.1.2 Metering of Customer and Public Uses and Meter Testing, Repair,
and Replacement
The provision of water to all customers, including public and governmental users, is
metered in the City of Wylie. The City of Wylie tests and replaces our customer meters
on a regular basis. All residential customer meters are budgeted to be replaced on a
minimum of a 15-year cycle.
6.1.3 Determination and Control of Water Loss
Total water loss is the difference between the water delivered to the City from the
NTMWD and the metered water sales to customers plus water authorized for use but
not sold. (Authorized for use but not sold would include use for fire fighting, releases
for flushing of lines, uses associated with new construction, etc.) Total water loss
includes two categories:
• Apparent Losses — Includes inaccuracies in customer meters (customer meters
tend to run more slowly as they age and under -report actual use); Losses due to
illegal connections and theft; Accounts that are being used but have not yet
been added to the billing system.
• Real Losses — Includes physical losses from the system or mains, reported breaks
and leaks, storage overflow and unreported losses.
Measures to control water loss are a part of the routine operations of the City.
Maintenance crews and personnel look for and report evidence of leaks in the water
Exhibit A of Ordinance No. 2019-09 Adopting Water Conservation Plan
6-1
Water Conservation Plan
Wylie, Texas
distribution system. A leak detection and repair program is described in Section 6.1.4
below. Meter readers watch for and report signs of illegal connections so that they can
be quickly addressed.
Total water Toss should be calculated in accordance with the provisions of Appendix F.
With the measures described in this plan, the City should maintain a water Toss
percentage below 12 percent in 2019 and subsequent years. If total water Toss exceeds
this goal, the City will implement a more intensive audit to determine the source(s) of
loss and to reduce the water loss. The annual conservation report described below is
the primary tool that should be used to monitor water Toss.
6.1.4 Leak Detection and Repair
As described above, City crews, building inspectors and personnel should look for and
report evidence of Teaks in the water distribution system. Areas of the water
distribution system in which numerous leaks and line breaks occur are targeted for
replacement as funds are available.
6.1.5 Record Management System
As required by TAC Title 30, Chapter 288, Section 288.2(a)(1)(B), the City of Wylie will
maintain a customer billing and record management system that allows for the
separation of water sales and uses into residential, commercial, public/institutional,
agricultural and industrial categories.
6.2 Continuing Public Education and Information Campaign
The continuing public education and information campaign on water conservation includes the
following elements:
• Utilize the "Water IQ: Know Your Water" and other public education materials
produced by NTMWD.
• Utilize the "Water4Otter" campaign for students.
• Insert water conservation information with water bills and provide information
online. Inserts or information will include material developed by City of Wylie staff
and/or material obtained from the TWDB, TCEQ, and other sources.
Exhibit A of Ordinance No. 2019-09 Adopting Water Conservation Plan
6-2
Water Conservation Plan
Wylie, Texas
• Encourage local media coverage of water conservation issues and the importance of
water conservation.
• Notify local organizations, schools, and civic groups that City of Wylie staff and staff
of NTMWD are available to make presentations on the importance of water
conservation and ways to save water.
• Promote the Texas Smartscape web site (www.txsmartscape.com) and provide
water conservation brochures and other water conservation materials available to
the public at City Hall and other public places.
• Make information on water conservation available on the City of Wylie's website
and include links to the "Water IQ: Know Your Water" website, Texas Smartscape
website and to information on water conservation on the TWDB and TCEQ web sites
and other resources.
• Utilize the Water My Yard website and encourage customers to sign-up to receive
weekly watering advice.
6.3 NTMWD Reservoir System Operation Plan
Member Cities and Customers of NTMWD purchase treated water from NTMWD and do not
have surface water supplies for which to implement a reservoir system operations plan.
NTMWD operates multiple sources of water supply as a system. The operation of the reservoir
system is intended to optimize the use of the District's sources (within the constraints of existing
water rights) while minimizing energy use cost for pumping, maintaining water quality,
minimizing potential impacts on recreational users of the reservoirs and fish and wildlife.
6.4 Coordination with Regional Water Planning Group and NTMWD
The adopted ordinance and the adopted water utility profile will be sent to the Chair of the
appropriate Water Planning Group and to NTMWD.
6.5 Requirement for Water Conservation Plans by Wholesale Customers
Every contract for the wholesale sale of water by a Member City and/or Customer that is
entered into, renewed, or extended after the adoption of this water conservation plan will
include a requirement that the wholesale customer and any wholesale customers of that
wholesale customer develop and implement a water conservation plan meeting the
Exhibit A of Ordinance No. 2019-09 Adopting Water Conservation Plan
6-3
Water Conservation Plan
Wylie, Texas
requirements of Title 30, Chapter 288, of the Texas Administrative Code. This requirement
extends to each successive wholesale customer in the resale of the water.
6.6 Increasing Block Water Rate Structure
The City of Wylie will continue to bill customers using an increasing block rate water structure
that is intended to encourage water conservation and to discourage excessive use and waste of
water upon completion its next rate study or within five years. See City of Wylie current Code of
Ordinances establishing an increasing block rate structure and minimum charge and base
charges for all tiers for residential and commercial/industrial water rates.
The City water rate structures are as follows:
Residential Water Rates
Residential water rates includes a minimum monthly charge for up to 1,000 gallons, and four (4)
additional tiers. The 2 d``d`th and 511-1 tiers are 1.25 to 2.0 times the per gallon tier rate
immediately preceding each.
Residential Irrigation Rates
Irrigation water rates for residential areas include 2 tiers, with rates for the 2""d tier set at 1.25 to
2.0 times that of the first tier.
Commercial/Industrial Rates
Commercial/Industrial rates include 2 tiers, with rates for the 2"d tier set at 1.25 to 2.0 times
that of the first tier.

7. ENHANCED WATER CONSERVATION STRATEGIES
7.1 Ordinances, Plumbing Codes, or Rules on Water -Conserving Fixtures
The state has required water -conserving fixtures in new construction and renovations since
1992. The state standards call for flows of no more than 2.5 gallons per minute (gpm) for
faucets, 2.5 gpm for showerheads, 1.28 gallons per flush (gpf) for toilets and 0.5 gpf for urinals.
Similar standards are now required under federal law. These state and federal standards assure
that all new construction and renovations will use water -conserving fixtures. As it deems
appropriate, the City of Wylie will continue to implement ordinances, plumbing codes, and rules
for water conserving fixtures as they evolve through relevant building codes and State of Texas
requirements. In addition, the City may also use rebate programs to encourage replacement of
older fixtures with water conservation programs as discussed in Section 7.5.
7.2 Reuse and Recycling of Wastewater
The City does not own and operate a wastewater treatment plant. Wastewater is treated by
NTMWD. NTMWD currently has the largest wastewater reuse program in the state. NTMWD
has water rights allowing reuse of up to 71,882 acre-feet per year of treated wastewater
discharges from the Wilson Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant for municipal purposes. In
addition, NTMWD has also developed the East Fork Reuse Project which can divert up to
157,393 acre-feet per year based on treated wastewater discharges by NTMWD. With the
addition of the Main Stem Pump station the District will be able to increase flows through the
East Fork Reuse Project up to an additional 56,100 acre-feet per year. When fully developed,
these three reuse projects will provide up to 42 percent of the NTMWD's currently permitted
water supplies. NTMWD also provides treated effluent from its wastewater treatment plants
available for direct reuse for landscape irrigation and industrial use.
7.3 Interactive Weather Stations / "Water My Yard" Program
NTMWD has developed the Water My Yard program to install weather stations throughout its
service area in order to provide consumers with a weekly e-mail and information through the
"Water My Yard" website to assist consumers in determining an adequate amount of
supplemental water to maintain healthy grass in a specific location. This service represents the
largest network of weather stations providing ET -based irrigation recommendations in the State
Exhibit A of Ordinance No. 2019-09 Adopting Water Conservation Plan
7-1
Water Conservation Plan
Wylie, Texas
of Texas, and provides the public advanced information regarding outdoor irrigation needs,
thereby reducing water use. Through a series of selections on the type of irrigation system, a
consumer has a weekly email provided that determines how long (in minutes) an irrigation
system needs to run based on the past seven days of weather. This recommendation provides
the actual amount of supplemental water that is required for a healthy lawn based on research
of the Texas A&M Agrilife Extension Service and proven technologies. This innovative program
has been available to those within the NTMWD service area since May 2013. The City will
encourage customers to subscribe to weekly watering updates through Water My Yard or other
similar program in an effort to reduce outdoor water consumption.
7.4 Compulsory Landscape and Water Management Measures
The following measures represent minimum measures required by the City of Wylie in order to
irrigate landscape appropriately and are to remain in effect on a permanent basis unless water
resource management stages are declared.
1. Landscape Water Management Measures
• Landscape watering with sprinklers or irrigation systems at each service address is
limited to no more than two days per week (April 1 — October 31).. Additional
watering of landscape may be provided by hand-held hose with shutoff nozzle or
use of dedicated irrigation drip zones if approved by the City. An exception is
allowed for landscape associated with new construction that may be watered as
necessary for 30 days from the installation of new landscape features. Lawn and

choose to not provide drinking water to customers unless a specific request is made
by the customer for drinking water.
7.5 Additional Water Conservation Measures (Not Required)
1. Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Customers
In order to target programs towards this customer base, the District hired Alan Plummer
Associates to conduct the "North Texas Municipal Water District Industrial, Commercial,
and Institutional Water Use Efficiency Study." The primary scope items in the study are
as follows:
• Develop ICI Customer Database
• Calculate per Capita Consumptions
• Identify, Define and Categorize
• Establish Base Use Estimates
• Identify Trends
• Select sectors for detailed analysis
• Benchmarking
• Identify Potential for Reduction
• Estimate Potential Demand Reduction by Strategy
• Program Development
The kick-off meeting was held on September 10, 2018 and the project is currently in the
process of data collection. It is not anticipated that any recommended programs will be
identified prior to the publication of this plan. Once the results are published, the
District will develop, in cooperation with the District's Member Cities and Customers
and in collaboration with ICI water users within the District's service area, a program to
reduce the per unit or per capita ICI water use within the District.

In -city municipal use = total water supplied less sales to industry, metered irrigation, wholesale sales and other sales.
After 2017 - Unaccounted Water has been removed and replaced with Water Losses (perTWDB definition). This category is inclusive of real and apparent losses. Categories for
authorized consumption were also added; Unbilled metered replaced estimated fire use, unbilled unmetered replaced estimated line flushing, and a new category for billed unmetered
sales was added.

APPENDIX E
CONSIDERATIONS FOR LANDSCAPE WATER MANAGEMENT
REGULATIONS
Water Conservation Plan
Wylie, Texas
APPENDIX E
CONSIDERATIONS FOR LANDSCAPE WATER MANAGEMENT
REGULATIONS
A. Purpose
The purpose of these proposed landscape water management regulations is to provide a
consistent mechanism for preventing the waste of water resources. To enact these
provisions, entities must verify legal authority to adopt such provisions, and must
promulgate valid rules, orders, or ordinances.
B. Required Measures
The following landscape water conservation measures are required to be included in the
landscape management regulations adopted and enforced in this plan.
1. Lawn and Landscape Irrigation Restrictions
a. A person commits an offense if the person irrigates, waters, or knowingly or
recklessly causes or allows the irrigation or watering of any lawn or landscape
located on any property owned, leased, or managed by the person between the
hours of 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. from April 1 through October 31 of any year.
b. A person commits an offense if the person knowingly or recklessly irrigates, waters,
or causes or allows the irrigation or watering of lawn or landscape located on any
property owned, leased, or managed by that person in such a manner that causes:
1) over -watering lawn or landscape, such that a constant stream of water
overflows from the lawn or landscape onto a street or other drainage area; or
2) irrigating lawn or landscape during any form of precipitation or freezing
conditions. This restriction applies to all forms of irrigation, including automatic
sprinkler systems; or
3) the irrigation of impervious surfaces or other non -irrigated areas, wind driven
water drift taken into consideration.
c. A person commits an offense if the person knowingly or recklessly allows the
irrigation or watering of any lawn or landscape located on any property owned,
leased, or managed by the person more than two days per week.
2. Rain and Freeze Sensors and/or ET or Smart Controllers
E-1
1
1
1
Water Conservation Plan
Wylie, Texas
Any new irrigation system installed on or after November 4, 2004, must be equipped
with rain and freeze sensing devices and/or ET or Smart controllers in compliance with
state design and installation regulations.
a. A person commits an offense on property owned, leased or managed if the person:
1) knowingly or recklessly installs or allows the installation of new irrigation
systems in violation of Subsection B.2; or
2) knowingly or recklessly operates or allows the operation of an irrigation system
that does not comply with Subsection B.2.
3. Filling or Refilling of Ponds
A person commits an offense if the person knowingly or recklessly fills or refills any
natural or manmade pond located on any property owned, leased, or managed by the
person by introducing any treated water to fill or refill the pond. This does not restrict
the filling or maintenance of pond levels by the effect of natural water runoff or the
introduction of well water into the pond. A pond is considered to be a still body of
water with a surface area of 500 square feet or more.
4. Washing of Vehicles
A person commits an offense if the person knowingly or recklessly washes a vehicle
without using a water hose with a shut-off nozzle on any property owned, leased, or
managed by the person.
5. Enforcement
Each entity will develop its own set of penalties for violations of the ordinance, order, or
resolution. The ordinance, order, or resolution will designate the responsible official(s)
to implement and enforce the landscape water conservation measures.
C. Recommended Measures
1. A person commits an offense if the person knowingly or recklessly operates a lawn or
irrigation system or device on property that the person owns, leases, or manages that:
a. has broken or missing sprinkler head(s); or
b. has not been properly maintained to prevent the waste of water.
2. A person commits an offense if the person knowingly or recklessly overseeds a lawn
with rye or winter grass on property that the person owns, leases, or manages. Golf
courses and public athletic fields are exempt from this restriction.
E-2
Water Conservation Plan
Wylie, Texas
3. All new athletic fields must have separate irrigation systems that are capable of
irrigating the playing fields separately from other open spaces.
D. Variances
1. In special cases, variances may be granted to persons demonstrating extreme hardship
or need. Variances may be granted under the following circumstances:
a. the applicant must sign a compliance agreement agreeing to irrigate or water the
lawn and/or landscape only in the amount and manner permitted by the variance;
and
b. the variance must not cause an immediate significant reduction to the water supply;
and
c. the extreme hardship or need requiring the variance must relate to the health,
safety, or welfare of the person making the request; and
d. the health, safety, and welfare of the public and the person making the request
must not be adversely affected by the requested variance.
2. A variance will be revoked upon a finding that:
a. the applicant can no longer demonstrate extreme hardship or need; or
b. the terms of the compliance agreement are violated; or
c. the health, safety, or welfare of the public or other persons requires revocation.
