B. Projected Water Demands
Provide estimates for total water demands for the planning horizon of the utility. Indicate
sources of data and how projected water demands were determined. Attach additional sheet
if necessary.
The following table is part of a report that was prepared for the City of Beaumont by
Freese & Nichols in 2004.
The City of Beaumont maintains an excellent set of production records from which an
analysis of historic water usage can be made. The total requirements are computed by
adding the total of both surface and well water to City.
This historical average day per capita demand has increased steadily from the 1950's
through 2004 with slight fluctuation in demands reflecting wet and dry years. Average
water consumption and per capita usage for the years 1998 was very high due to an
extended drought period. The table that follows displays the figures for population,
per capita water demand (GPCD), total water requirement for an average day (MGD),
and maximum daily requirements (MGD) excluding raw water usage. When this
report was prepared in 2004, it projected no decrease in the per capita demand
(GPCD) due to previous historic trends. However, the actual per capita values are less
than the 2004 projections by 5 and 12 percent for 2005 and 2007 respectively. The
decreasing per capita demand values is a result of increased usage of water
conservation measures. A couple of examples would be a leak detection program
conducted in 2007 and 2008, and continuous public education. The Texas Water
Development Board (TWDB) estimates these savings in per capita per day to be as

Population figures for 1950-1990 were taken from U.S. Census data. Population figures
for 1997 and 1998 were derived using a 3.2% grown rate predicted by SETRPC for this
period. Population figures from 2000-2020 were taken from the SETRPC estimated
growth rate. Average day requirements for 1950 to 1998 were provided by the City of
Beaumont. Per capita usage from 1998 through 2020 were based on below normal
rainfall (drought) conditions and a decrease of 0.5 GPCD per 5 year increment based
on increased usage of water conservation plumbing fixtures, and water conservation
programs implemented by the city.

III. WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM
A. Water Supply Sources
1. List all current water supply and the amounts available with each:
Source Amount Available
Surface Water: Neches River 50 MGD
Groundwater: Chicot Aquifer 16 MGD
Contracts: None None
Other: None None
B. Treatment and Distribution System
1. Design daily capacity of system: 56 MGD
2. Please describe the water system. Include the number of treatment plants, wells, and
storage tanks. If possible, include a sketch of the system layout.
The City of Beaumont is served by one surface water treatment plant and one
ground water pump station. The Neches River is the raw water source for the
surface water treatment plant (40 MGD). The surface water treatment plant is a
conventional -type water treatment plant with normal disinfection, up flow
pulsate clarifier, and dual media filtration. The raw water flows from the Neches
River to the surface water treatment plant via a canal system, pump station, and
pipe. The canal system has three intakes from the Neches River: Weiss Bluff
intake, Bunn's Bluff intake, and Lawson's intake. Only one intake is in use at a
time. Bunn's Bluff, Gravity flow intake is the normal operating intake. Lawson's
intake is used only in emergencies. The raw water is pumped from the end of
Bunn's Canal to the rapid mix where alum is added as the primary coagulant. If
necessary caustic, is added to increase alkalinity. The water proceeds through
the up flow clarifiers to the filters. Chlorine can be added at this point, before
filtration, for disinfection zone 1; however, D1 is normally not utilized.
Phosphate is added before and after filtration for sequestration of manganese.
Chlorine, caustic and fluoride are added after filtration, just before the water
reaches the clear well, a 5 million gallon ground storage tank. D2 is from the
clear well influent to clear well effluent. After the clear well ammonia is added to
form chloramines and caustic is added to increase the pH. The water is then
E
pumped to the distribution system. The ground water system (16 MGD) consists
of three wells, two 5 million gallon ground storage tanks and four booster pumps,
all located in Hardin County north of Beaumont. The wells pump from the
Chicot Aquifer (a minor aquifer within the Gulf Coast aquifer). Free chlorine is
added before and after the ground storage tanks. The water is pumped from the
ground storage tanks to the distribution system.
The distribution system consists of 780 miles of water lines and six elevated
storage tanks with approximately 42,300 connections, encompassing a service
area of 85.74 sq. miles. Water lines range in size from 2" to 42" in diameter.
Most of the city is operated as one pressure plane. However, a booster station in
the southern portion of the city serves the prison system. The north and west
parts of the city receive ground water, the remainder of the city receives surface
water. Refer to Appendix B.
IV. WASTEWATER SYSTEM
A. Wastewater System Data
1. Design Capacity of wastewater treatment plant: 46 MGD
2. Briefly describe the wastewater system(s) of the area serviced by the water utility.
Describe how treated wastewater is disposed of. Where applicable, identify treatment
plant(s) with the TCEQ name and number, the operator, owner, and if wastewater is
discharged, the receiving stream. Please provide a sketch or map which located the
plant(s) discharge points or disposal sites.
The City of Beaumont's Wastewater Treatment Plant is a high rate continuous
recirculation, two stage bio -trickling filter plant followed by three polishing
ponds. Following chlorination and dechlorination the wastewater treatment
plant's effluent is pumped to a constructed wetland for tertiary treatment prior to
being discharged into a natural wetland and then to the receiving stream. Plant
site is locate at 4900 Lafin Road, approximately 3000 feet south of US Highway 69
and Highway 124 in Jefferson County. Since 2003 the wastewater treatment
plant received a major upgrade to its treatment units, electrical and SCADA
system.
The City of Beaumont's Wastewater Treatment Plant is owned and operated by
the City and is identified by TCEQ Permit Number 100501-020 Hillebrandt
Bayou Wastewater Treatment Plant.
10
Treatment effluent discharged is into Hillebrandt Bayou in segment number 0704
of the Neches -Trinity Coastal River Basin.
The City of Beaumont's wastewater treatment plant disposes of its aerobically
digested sludge at the City of Beaumont's Type 1 Landfill (TCEQ Number 1486)
owned and operated by the City of Beaumont. Refer to Appendix C.

VI. CONSERVATION GOALS
Please use the data provided in this survey to establish conservation goals
(additional data may be used).
A. Water conservation goals for municipal utilities are generally established to
maintain or reduce consumption, as measured in:
1. gallon per capita per day used;
2. unaccounted-for water uses;
3. peak -day to average -day ratio; and/or
4. an increase in reuse or recycling of water.
B. TCEQ conservation staff assess the reasonableness of water conservation goals
based on whether the applicant addresses the following steps:
1. identification of a water or wastewater problem;
15
2. performance of a system audit (completion of this form).
3. selection of goals based on the technical potential to save water as identified
in the audit; and
4. performance of a coast -benefit analysis of conservation strategies.
If at least the first three steps have been completed and are summarized in the
water conservation plan, then TCEQ staff can conclude that there is
substantiated basis for the goals, and that the water conservation plan is
integrated into water management. Therefore, the established conservation
goals are deemed reasonable.
C. Complete the following in gallons per capita per day (gpcd) to quantify the water
conservation goals for the utility's service area.
Estimation of the technical potential for reducing per capita water use:
2. Planning goal
The planning goal equals the dry year per capita water use minus the total technical
potentials calculated in number one above.
Goal to be achieved by 2018 (in gpcd): 239 gpcd

Difference between current use and 2015 goal: 31 gpcd
(Represents needed reduction in per capita use to meet goal.)
4. Methods to reduce per capita use:
a. Water line replacement program:
In 2000 the City of Beaumont adopted an aggressive water line replacement
program. The program continue to replace approximately 20,000 linear feet of
water lines per year. The replacement of corroded, unlined cast iron water lines
improves water quality, reduces water loss, and reduces production costs. Refer to
Appendix D.
b. Installation of conservative plumbing fixtures:
The City of Beaumont Code Enforcement section adopted the use of plumbing
fixtures that promotes water conservation. The City of Beaumont will continue to
enforce such measures.
c. Water Leak Detection and Elimination Program:
The water meter and alley lines relocation program, reduced the water leaks and
relocated the lines to the street making any future leak easier to detect.
The City of Beaumont contracted with ADS the leak detection program that
identified leaks and trained City staff on how to operate the equipment. The City is
in the process of buying leak detection equipment to conduct daily in-house leak
detection. Refer to Appendix E
d. Annual water meter testing.
In 2000 the City of Beaumont started conducting an annual test of all its meters 3
inches and larger. This program will continue to be a part of the standard
operations.
e. Water System Master Plan:
The City of Beaumont Contracted out to Schaumburg and Polk, Inc. the design of a
Master Plan that was completed by the end of 2009. The Master Plan will field
17
survey and locate all existing lines, create a water model, and identify areas of low
pressures and potential water leaks.
f. Leak Detection Program:
The City of Beaumont executed a contract with ADS Environmental Services to
identify leaks in the distribution system. This program started in February 2007 and
was completed in April 2008. The leaks found have been repaired by City forces.
The City is in the process of buying leak detection equipment to establish an
ongoing leak detection program. Refer to Appendix F for Resolution and results of
study.
g. Self Audit Program:
The City of Beaumont will conduct a self audit for all its facilities every two years.
h. Water Bill Inserts
In the next five years the City of Beaumont will continue to include inserts in the
water bills to educate the public on water conservation. In addition the City will
insert in the water bill a self audit to the customers to help them conserve water and
save money. Refer to Appendix G
i. Public Education:
The City of Beaumont adopted a five year educational program (2009 through
2013) that will continue to educate the public by presenting brochures at
community centers, town hall meetings, schools and entertainment festivals. In
addition, the City is sponsoring water conservation school programs and projects
