Re: Stage-2 DBP TTHM OEL Exceedance at Site #1 Gobernador Canyon

Recommendation: Receive and consider Operational Evaluation report in response to letter dated April 23, 2013, from Kurt Souza, P.E., Chief, Southern California Section, California Department of Public Health-Drinking Water Field Office Branch. Discussion: As you know, I learned when I received the attached letter by e-mail from the Department of Public Health on the day before our April 24 Board meeting that we must prepare a written Operational Evaluation for submittal to the Department of Public Health (DPH) due to exceedance of the Total Trihalomethanes (TTHM) Disinfection By-Product (DPB) standard at one of our two Gobernador Canyon sampling sites. We immediately began our evaluation, and met later that week with Jeff Densmore and Ashley Jones of DPH. I also learned from District Engineer Bob McDonald Bob on Thursday, May 9, that we are most certainly going to exceed the Total Trihalomethane (TTHM) standard again with the most recent sample taken at the same Gobernador Canyon sampling site. And this new additional exceedance number may trigger a requirement by the Department of Public Health for us to notify our public, or at least the affected Gobernador Canyon area. Public notification is something we did some years ago, for Haloacetic Acids, a different Disinfection By-Product, and as a result found ourselves high in the running for low interest loans from the State to fund our big water quality capital improvement projects. Our TTHM problem begins with the amount of organic matter in our source water from Lake Cachuma, and is then compounded with the aging of our water as it flows over time from the Cater Treatment Plant to our distribution system. The longer our chlorine disinfectant is in contact with organic carbon (and the bacteria it kills) in the system, the more disinfection by-products it produces, including TTHM. Fortunately we have two important already funded projects going for us to address our DBP problem:

Carpinteria Valley Water District

ITEM VI. A. PAGE 1

1) The new but not yet operational groundwater blending capability with the El Carro Well;

2) The new but not yet operational ozone treatment process at Cater expected to substantially reduce TTHM formation in the water it sends to us.

Total Trihalomethanes at certain levels, ingested in certain quantities of over certain periods of time, are associated with cancer risk; potential reproductive system effects; and liver/ kidney/ nervous system problems. They include: Chloroform; Bromodichloromethane; Bromoform. The TTHM standard is .08 milligrams per liter (mg/L) or 80 parts per billion. Jeff Densmore of DPH is planning to attend the May 22 Board meeting and speak to the statistical health risks associated with exceedance of this standard.

Re: Stage-2 DBP TTHM OEL EXCEEDANCE AT SITE#1 GOBERNADOR CYN Dear Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Stanford; The Stage-2 DBP Rule defines Operational Evaluation Levels (OELs) that require systems to conduct operational evaluations, when exceeded. The operational evaluation levels are determined by the sum of the two previous quarters’ TTHM/HAA5 results plus twice the current quarter’s TTHM/HAA5 result, at that location, divided by 4 to determine an average. If the average OEL TTHM exceeds 0.080 mg/L (80 ug/L) at any monitoring location or the average HAA5 exceeds 0.060 mg/L (60 ug/L) at any monitoring location, the system is required to conduct an operational evaluation and submit a written report of the operational evaluation to CDPH for review within 90 days after being notified of the analytical result that initiates the operational evaluation. As indicated in Carpinteria VWD’s Stage-2 DBP monitoring results summary below; the average OEL for TTHM exceeded 80 ug/L at Stage-2 Site#1 GOBERNADOR CYN based on the samples collected on 8/6/2012, 11/12/2012, and 2/6/2013. Carpinteria VWD is hereby notified to conduct an operational evaluation and submit a written report to CDPH within 90 days of the notification date of the analytical result that caused the OEL exceedance.

The operational evaluation must include an examination of system treatment and distribution operational practices, including changes in sources or source water quality, storage tank operations, and excess storage capacity, that may contribute to high TTHM/HAA5 formation. Systems must also identify what steps could be considered to minimize future operational evaluation level exceedences. In cases where the system can identify the cause of DBP levels that resulted in the operational evaluation, based on factors such as water quality data, plant performance data, and distribution system configuration the system may request CDPH allow limiting the evaluation to the identified cause. Since Carpentaria VWD received the 2/6/2013 lab results on 2/19/2013, the operational evaluation report is due no later than May 20th, 2013.

Operational Evaluation Report - Carpinteria Valley Water District

Facility Information

Per the requirements of the Stage 2 Disinfection Byproducts (DBP) Rule, Carpinteria

Valley Water District (CVWD) conducted an Initial Distribution System Evaluation to determine

the most appropriate sites for monitoring under Stage 2 rules. Four sites were identified using a

computerized distribution system model (see map 1). Because CVWD is a consecutive system to

the City of Santa Barbara and its Cater Treatment Plant, one of the monitoring sites (#4 Polo

field) was located at the entrance to CVWD’s System near Lateral 1 off the South Coast Conduit

(SCC). The next site (#3 Casitas Pass Road) was selected because it represented the median age

of water in the CVWD system. The next site (#2 Shepard Mesa Tank) was selected because it

represented the highest potential for Haloacetic Acid in the system. The last site selected (#1

Gobernador Canyon) was chosen because it represents the oldest water in the system. This

report is focused on site number 1 because this is the site that has exceeded the Operational

Evaluation Level (OEL).

Reported By

This report was completed in accordance with the Stage 2 Disinfection Byproduct Rule

by Carpinteria Valley Water District System Number 42-10001. The District Engineer and

Operations Manager, respectively Bob Mc Donald and Greg Stanford, worked together to

research the issue and analyze the water system.

Background

CVWD is located in the Southeast corner of Santa Barbara County and has two primary

sources of water supply, local groundwater and imported Lake Cachuma water. Local

groundwater is about 33% of the total supply for CVWD and is currently generated from 2 wells,

Headquarters Well and Smillie Well. The District has recently completed a third well and is

expecting it to go online this summer to add to CVWD’s groundwater production reliability. The

remainder of the District’s supply is delivered through the South Coast Conduit, a 25 mile long

pipeline running from the South portal of the Tecolote Tunnel to the terminal SCC reservoir

located in Carpinteria (Carpinteria Reservoir). The upper reach of the SCC delivers untreated

Lake water to the City of Santa Barbara’s Cater Treatment plant where it is treated using

conventional surface water treatment. Once treated the lower reach of the SCC conveys this

water to the communities of Montecito and Carpinteria Valley. The water passes through a 20

million gallon balancing reservoir named Ortega Reservoir before it is delivered either directly

into the CVWD distribution system or into the 14 million gallon Carpinteria Reservoir, the

terminal reservoir for the South Coast Conduit system. Ortega and Carpinteria Reservoirs are

operated by Cater personnel to manage the SCC lower reach deliveries to Montecito and

Carpinteria Valley.

OEL Exceedance

The OEL exceedance occurred at Site #1- Gobernador Canyon in the first quarterly

sample of 2013 (QTR1-13) for Total Trihalomethanes. CVWD started sampling Stage 2 sites in

the first quarter of 2012 (QTR1-12). This is the first OEL exceedance in the CVWD system since

the implementation of Stage 2 monitoring.

Below is the data for the calculation of the OEL. The OEL is calculated by adding the numbers

from the first two periods of the last three quarterly samples (80 and 78) together with twice

the sample amount (84) of the final period, and dividing by 4. As can be seen below the OEL

action level of 80 ppb was exceeded at site number 1- Gobernador Canyon.

1 Gobernador Cyn (Oldest) 80 78 84 81.5

Data collection and Analysis Protocols

Before reviewing the system, data collection and analysis protocol should be validated

to make certain that the high level of TTHM is not a result of erroneous sampling or analysis.

The EPA provides a checklist that is attached in Appendix A that was used to evaluate the

sampling and analytics. The conclusion after filling out the checklist was that proper techniques

were used to collect the samples.

Operational Evaluation

As required by the Stage 2 DBP Rule, when the OEL Action Level is exceeded an

operational evaluation must be conducted. The evaluation must consider source water quality,

water treatment and distribution system operations as possible contributors to elevated

constituent levels. Further, the evaluation of system wide constituent levels may give clues to

what may be causing the elevated levels. As shown in Table 1, the general trend of TTHM in this

system is increasing over time. The sparklines adjacent to the tables represent the trend of the

data in the column or row. As can be seen on the last column of Table 1 all system sites show

an increase in TTHM over time. At face value this suggests that the source water quality is

changing over time. However, looking at Montecito Water District’s monitoring sites, there is a

decline in the level of TTHMs in their system over time. Montecito takes water from Cater

treatment plant just upstream of the CVWD system. One thing that does correlate with the

increasing TTHM in CVWD’s system is the percentage of groundwater in the system at the time

of the sampling. Over the same period of rising system TTHMs the District has experienced a

decline in groundwater production due to mechanical and well issues. This suggests that at

ITEM VI. A. PAGE 7

3

least a portion of the increase in TTHM is a result of the higher percentages of surface water in

the system. This is reasonable because surface water typically has higher levels of organic

compounds than groundwater which can lead to higher formation of DBPs when chlorine is

introduced to the water for disinfection. One other thing to note about the data in Table 1 is

that, with the exception of the sample date 05/07/12, the TTHM levels are increasing with the

age of the water. That is, the water at the polo field site leaves Ortega reservoir about 1 day

earlier whereas the water in Gobernador canyon left Ortega Reservoir about 12 days before.

Water at the Polo field is considered 1 day old and water in Gobernador Canyon is considered

12 days old. As water travels through the system with chlorine residual, THMs form. The longer

the water is in the system the longer THMs have to form increasing the total THM

concentration.

Table 1 – System monitoring data

Source of Supply

As stated earlier in this report, Carpinteria has two primary supplies: Cachuma Project

water and local groundwater. It has always been understood that Carpinteria groundwater has

low TOC levels and therefore low DBP formation potential. On several occasions the system has

been flooded with at least 90% groundwater and the system DBPs were below 10ppb for TTHM

and 3 ppb for HAA51. This fact has lead CVWD staff to utilize the groundwater supply as a

blending source to reduce the DBP formation potential of incoming surface water. It has also

been known that Cachuma water is high in TOC and difficult to treat with respect to DBP and

TOC. Lake turnover or stratification can have an effect on the level of organics in the raw water.

The level of turbidity and TOC of incoming water is one indicator of the condition of the Lake.

According to the information collected from Cater Treatment Plant and Cachuma Operations

and Maintenance Board (COMB) there were no apparent changes in the Lake or intake that

correspond to the sampling periods where higher TTHMs were detected in February of 2013.

Treatment Processes

CVWD’s groundwater is treated at the well sites prior to the water entering the system.

The treatment consists of Iron and Manganese removal through an active media filter and

disinfection using Sodium Hypochlorite at Headquarters well and simple disinfection with

Sodium Hypochlorite at Smillie Well. The free chlorine residual leaving the well plants are in the

range of 1.5 ppm. There are no indications of changes to the groundwater treatment process

that would have had an effect on the DBP levels in CVWDs system. However as mentioned, the

increase in DBP levels in the system over time corresponds to the reduction of groundwater

due to groundwater well mechanical failures. In the last sample period, there was 0%

groundwater in the system which corresponds to the highest level in any site over a 15 month

period. Graph 1 illustrates the correlation between surface water percentages in the system

and TTHMs at Site 1.

Graph 1

The Cater Treatment Plant is a conventional treatment plant that receives water from Lake

Cachuma and to some extent Lake Gibraltar. Water is delivered into a smaller holding reservoir

called Lauro Reservoir from which Cater draws. Since the 2007 Zaca fire which burned in the

Lake Cachuma watershed, Cater has seen elevated TOC at the influent of the plant. Initially TOC

levels were in the range of 5 mg/L. Since then TOC have attenuated but not below the pre-Zaca

fire period. Currently the influent TOC ranges between 3.4 and 4.1 mg/L.

The Cater Treatment plant has had some success with TOC removal using powdered activated

carbon at the head of the plant along with adding a secondary coagulant (Alumchlorohydrate,

ACH) to their coagulation process. Further, in order to reduce formation of DBPs in the

treatment process Cater has nearly completed an ozone pretreatment facility to replace the

chlorine pretreatment facility that has been historically used.

A review of the treatment process at Cater for the period of analysis has shown that changes to

the levels of PAC and or ACH overtime may have contributed to the rising levels of TOC leaving

the plant and likely subsequent formation of higher DBPs in CVWDs system. See Graph 2 for

visual correlation between the TOC level leaving the Cater Treatment Plant and the average

TTHMs in the CVWD system. The data shows a positive correlation between the two variables.

Given the complexities of the systems it is, however, difficult to conclude how much the rising

TOC have played a part in higher DBPs in CVWDs system.

Distribution System Operations

CVWD’s distribution system consists of 85 miles of pipeline, 3 reservoirs, 3 booster pumping

plants and 4253 metered services. Annual average daily demand is 3.8 Million gallons a day.

CVWD’s distribution system draws surface water off at a number of turnouts on the SCC as well

as directly off the Carpinteria outflow piping for areas in Gobernador Canyon and Shepard

Mesa. Under the Stage 2 DBP rule a hydraulic model of the distribution system was constructed

to analyze water quality in the distribution system. The model incorporated the SCC along with

Carpinteria Reservoir (Carp Res), a 14 million gallon reservoir, as a part of the distribution

system because it is believed that the effect on water age from Carp Res could be significant.

The model assumes that the water age is zero at Ortega Reservoir; however, this is only an

assumed baseline. In reality, given a 20 million gallon reservoir with on average 5 MGD passing

through, the turnover in the reservoir is 4 days under ideal conditions. Chlorine is added at

Ortega and Carpinteria Reservoirs as it leaves in order to polish the water. According to the

model the age of the water at the Gobernador Canyon sample station is approximately 11 days

old. Most of that age occurs in Carpinteria Reservoir, approximately 9 days. The water in

Gobernador Canyon must go through Carpinteria Reservoir because of the reservoir outle

piping configuration and therefore water anywhere in this subsystem is at least 10 days old (the

age of the water at CR outlet piping). In addition about half the water pumped into Gobernador

Canyon is stored in Gobernador Reservoir. The age of water leaving Gobernador Reservoir is

approximately 12 days old.

Operating levels of Carp Res are controlled by Cater through modulation of the “south flow

valve” at Ortega Res to let water flow from Ortega (HGL 460 ASL) to Carp Res (HGL 370 ASL). In

general the Carp Res has a depth of 20 feet and is operated between 18 and 14 feet which

constitutes a 3 million gallon turnover of the 11.6 MG stored at 18 feet. The water flowing into

the reservoir is delivered to the north end of the reservoir and water leaving is taken from the

south end. This does provide some degree of movement for older water to leave the reservoir

however there may be stratification occurring in the warmer months that may affect mixing

and cause older water to stay in the reservoir for longer at higher temperatures. Gobernador

reservoir is a 10 foot deep reservoir with a capacity of one half million gallons. It is operated

between normally 5.5 and 8 feet which constitutes a turnover of about 160,000 gallons.

As water leaves Carpinteria reservoir to meet system demands it has historically been re-

chlorinated to about 1.5 ppm but recently in light of higher DBPs has been lowered to about 1

ppm. It may be practical to lower outflow residual further. Water entering Carpinteria typically

coming from Ortega is entering at about 1.0 ppm of free chlorine and leaving about 0.7 ppm

before it is boosted. This implies that over the 10 day detention period in Carp res a chlorine

demand of 0.3 is occurring. We have no data showing the level of TTHMs at the inflow versus

the outflow of Carp Res but it is reasonable to believe that significant formation in the reservoir

is occurring during periods of high surface water deliveries as evidenced by sampling data from

2/6/13. In fact, this data shows that the TTHM increased by 20 ppm after leaving Carp Res when

ITEM VI. A. PAGE 11

7

surface water percentages are high. Another approach may be to lower chlorine boosting from

1.5ppm at Ortega to 1.3ppm so that by the time it gets to Carpinteria Reservoir it is around 0.4

ppm. There is no chlorination to Gobernador Reservoir outflows.

Conclusions

The factors contributing to the high TTHM at site # 1 are complex. The data suggests that

changes in the source water, i.e. the change in percentages of groundwater in the system, the

level of TOC leaving Cater TP and the long detention times in Carpinteria Reservoir all

contribute to the elevated levels to a degree and may in combination have a worse affect than

any single factor in isolation. Other factors such as pH, temperature and chlorine residual show

weak correlations but could, given the right combination of factors, affect the formation of

TTHMs at site #1. See below Graph 3 for correlation between water quality factors.

Recommendations

Several things can be done immediately to improve water quality at the site and likely

throughout the system. They are:

• Lowering the operating levels in the Carpinteria and Gobernador reservoirs to the

extent practical to improve turnover. This will reduce the ultimate age of water in the

system reducing the Level of THM formation

• Establishing a baseline on chlorine levels leaving Carpinteria Reservoir to which the level

can be lowered safely and still meet the minimum distribution system residuals.

• Flushing should be done during lower demand periods in Gobernador Canyon. This will

reduce the age of water in this area and reduce biofilm in the pipelines. This should be

done in conjunction with cycling Gobernador Reservoir.

• Emptying and cleaning Gobernador Reservoir in the near future to remove biofilm which

can add to the DBP formation potential of the water.

• Maintaining the use PAC and ACH1000 at Cater to control TOC until Ozonation is shown

to be effective at removal of TOC.

• Maintaining a minimum level of groundwater (25%) in the system once the

Headquarters well is back online.

Some long-term (6 months to 1 year) things that can be done to improve TTHMs in the system:

• Draining and cleaning Carpinteria Reservoir as soon as system demands allow.

• Implementing the ozonation pretreatment at Cater treatment plant to reduce finished

water TOC. This will reduce the TOC available to react with chlorine.

• Retrofitting Gobernador Reservoir with an aeration system to treat already formed

TTHM. This appears to be having an effect on Shepard Mesa tank.

• Installing a mixer in Carpinteria reservoir to eliminate dead zones that can cause can

cause stratification and inhibit mixing.

• Completing El Carro Well to improve reliability of groundwater system so that

groundwater blending system will be less likely to go offline due to mechanical issues.

Memo

To: Directors

From: Charles Hamilton, General Manager

Date: April 19, 2013

Re: Sale of up to 400 AF of stored State water

Recommendation: Authorize the General Manager to sell up to 400 AF of State water stored in San Luis Reservoir through the Central Coast Water Authority for a price not less than $125/AF. Discussion: The District currently has about 6,000 AF of total water supply at its disposal and a need for about 3,450 AF for deliveries to District customers through December, leaving a supply balance of 2,550 AF. Available supplies: 2,608 AF of State water 1,011 AF Carryover from 2012 stored in California Department of Water Resource’s

San Luis Reservoir (through Central Coast Water Authority) 137 AF 2011 Palmdale exchange ~690 AF 2012 CVWD banked water in Kern County (through Irvine Ranch Water

District) 770 AF 2013 Table A water at 35% of 2,200 AF allotment (incl. drought buffer)

2,593 AF Cachuma water (as of April 1) 800 AF groundwater (depending on HQ and/or El Carro well readiness to produce) Projected water sales: 3,450 AF through December.

Carpinteria Valley Water District

ITEM VI. B. PAGE 1

Page 2

Ordering 400 AF of 2012 Table A banked water in San Luis Reservoir for sale to another CCWA member agency at a price of $125/AF could yield the District $50,000. This amount in turn could be used to purchase up to 250 AF of State water for delivery into the Lake for District use at a cost of about $200/AF. Taking 250 acre feet of State water this year would prolong the availability of the District’ s existing Cachuma supply as a pre-drought mitigation measure with no new cost to the District. One alternative use of the $50,000 from the State water sale could be to allocate these funds for District capital expenses in the proposed FY 2013-14 Budget, and reduce pressure on water rates and charges.
