MULTI PARTY AGREEMENT BETWEEN ARIZONA PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY, GOODYEAR, AND BUCKEYE TO ACCEPT MUNICIPAL BRACKISH WATER (BRINE) INTO PALO VERDE NUCLEAR GENERATING STATIONS ("PVGS") WATER RECLAMATION SUPPLY SYSTEM
Deputy Public Works Director Barbara Chappell presented a request to approve a multiparty agreement between Arizona Public Service Company (APS), the City of Goodyear and the City of Buckeye, to accept brackish water (brine), a biproduct of the City’s groundwater treatment. Ms. Chappell reviewed the current practice that discharges the brine into the sewer system and then is conveyed to the water reclamation facility. She added that the current practice is not sustainable and causes several issues such as not meeting the pretreatment ordinance, taking up capacity that could be used to support growth and passing through the water reclamation facility that may cause issues with compliance on the discharge permits.
Ms. Chappell indicated that a review of options presented by a consultant and collaboration with APS Palo Verde Nuclear Power Plant resulted in the development of a memorandum of understanding for preliminary work to establish the impact of the poor quality of water on their cooling system. Ms. Chappell discussed the key points of the agreement that included the purchase and testing of two different manufactures for the enhanced evaporation units and the advancement of design for improvements on the electrical and piping needed for the full-scale project.
Ms. Chappell added that once the pilot and design are complete, a future agreement is needed. This agreement will establish capital costs moving forward and operating and maintenance costs for the new facilities, which will allow the City to discharge 13.7 million gallons of brine a day that is generated during the peak flow of summer.
Council expressed that this was a great solution and appreciated the collaboration with APS.
