BAYTOWN AREA WATER AUTHORITY
MAJOR BUDGET ISSUES
FISCAL YEAR 2016 -17
This fund accounts for the operations of the Baytown Area Water Authority (BAWA). BAWA is
a water authority created by the Texas Legislature to supply water for the City of Baytown (City)
and surrounding communities. BAWA services a total of eight customers with the City as the
largest customer, generating approximately 88% of BAWA's annual sales. BAWA is a separate
legal entity; however, it is considered a component unit of the City. Since it began operating,
BAWA has not experienced shortages of its raw water supply to the plant or interruptions of
service to its customers.
REVENUES
The 2016 -17 proposed budget estimates sales of $12,753,398 for an average of 12.25 million
gallons per day (MGD). Fluctuations in rainfall amounts can significantly impact actual sales.
Although the Utility Rate Study calls for a 3.5% increase, the existing rate structure will provide
adequate funding to exceed both working capital and bonded debt coverage (1.25 %) minimums.
Therefore, no rate increase is recommended for the 2016 -17 proposed budget. The existing rate
structure of $2.74 per 1,000 gallons for the City of Baytown and $2.78 per 1,000 gallons for
customers outside the city will remain the same.
EXPENDITURES
Total operating expenditures for the proposed 2016 -17 budget are $6,137,397 which is a decrease
of $138,978 from the 2015 -16 budget. This budget includes two additional Water Plant
Operators in anticipation for the BAWA East Water Treatment Plant and also includes a transfer
of $350,000 to the General Fund for an indirect cost allocation to reimburse the City for
administrative services such as Human Resources, Fiscal Operations, Legal and Information
Technology Services. Highlights of major operating changes are as follows:
• Increase in personnel services
$ 192,689
• Decrease in supplies
(423,600)
• Increase in maintenance
22,700
• Increase in services
62,233
• Decrease in capital outlay
(46,600)
• Decrease in transfers out - capital improvements
(763,671)
Raw Water Supply Cost — BAWA purchases raw water from the City of Houston. The raw
water supply contract with the City of Houston is in effect through the year 2040, and sets the
maximum amount of raw water to be delivered to the BAWA plant at 20 MGD without
penalties. The surcharge for water purchased over the 20 MGD is nominal at this time. BAWA
received notice of a rate increase (1.4 %) from $0.6506 to $0.6597 effective April 1, 2016. The
annual rate adjustment is intended to help cover the City of Houston's cost increases that impact
the provision of safe, clean drinking water and the collection and treatment of wastewater. This
includes operational costs as well as the costs involved in repairing portions of the City of
Houston system's aging infrastructure.
BAYTOWN AREA WATER AUTHORITY
MAJOR BUDGET ISSUES
FISCAL YEAR 2016 -17
Debt Service — The transfer to cover the debt service requirement for the proposed 2016 -17
budget is $2,423,392. New debt related to the BAWA East Water Treatment Plant construction
of about $16 million has also been included in this budget.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
The Capital improvement Program for BAWA is funded through the issuance of revenue bonds,
grants, and revenue from operations.
• BAWA East Water Treatment Plant: Development of a six (6) million gallons per day
(MGD) surface water treatment plant south of Interstate Highway (IH) 10 and west of SH
99 along the Coastal Water Authority (CWA) Barbers Hill Canal. The design will provide
for the ability to expand the plant based on future water demands and allow the plant to
convert to salt water treatment (desalinization) ensuring long term viability.
• BAWA Fritz Lanham Water Treatment Plant: Improvements to this facility include
replacing the chemical bulk storage tanks, rehabilitating sedimentation basin 3, site
paving, adding a liquid ammonia feed system, adding a liquid lime feed system and
improvement of the post filtration chemical system.
WORKING CAPITAL
In order to maintain fiscal stability, governmental entities maintain a working capital balance to
meet daily liquidity needs. Appropriate levels of working capital vary from entity to entity based
on the relative impact of particular circumstances or financial conditions. Working capital is
defined as current assets (e.g., cash, investments and accounts receivable) less current liabilities
(e.g., accounts payable).
In the 2016 -17 proposed budget, BAWA's working capital level at year end is projected to
represent 187 days of operating expenditures; a contingency line item of $75,000 is provided;
plus we are able to transfer out $4,680,000 to BAWA's Capital Improvement Project Fund
(CIPF). The $4,680,000 will be available for funding future capital projects, and to help
downsize future borrowing requirements.

3070 BAYTOWN AREA WATER AUTHORITY - PROGRAM SUMMARY
Program Description
BAWA operates and maintains a 26 Million Gallon per Day (MGD) surface water treatment facility. It has a projected raw
water flow of 12.25 MGD and projected finished water flow of 12.25 MGD for fiscal year 2015 -16. BAWA currently serves
8 surrounding area customers, including the City of Baytown, which uses 87% of BAWA's production. Operations personnel
ensure the facility's compliance with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality's (TCEQ) Rules and Regulations for
Public Water Supplies. BAWA provides its customers with high quality, safe drinking water and consistent water pressure for
fire protection.
Major Goals
• Maintain water quality necessary to be classified as "Meeting Optimum Corrosion Control" by TCEQ.
• Maintain "Superior Public Water System" status.
• Maintain standards for the Texas Optimization Program - a voluntary program through TCEQ that promotes the
optimization of surface water treatment plants, by identifying and addressing the various factors that limit performance in
order to lower the risk of waterborne disease.
• Develop and maintain a staff of highly trained water professionals through continuing education classes and hands on
training.
Major Objectives
• Produce 12.25 MGD of finished water.
• Maintain finished water turbidity (haze measurement) consistently < 0.1 NTU.
• Maintain compliance with all TCEQ and EPA regulations.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
NOTIFICATION OF WATER RATE ADJUSTMENT
Effective April 1, 2016, water and sewer rates are adjusting upward by 1.4 %. The City
of Houston's Code of Ordinances provides that water and sewer rates be adjusted each
year in April. These new rates will appear on your April 2016 billing which you will
receive in May. This rate adjustment is based on a combination of the 2015 Houston
Regional Consumer Price Index (CPI) of -0.2% plus the City of Houston's population
increase, 1.6% according to the United States Census Bureau.
