STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends this variance, having determined the findings of fact to have been met. STAFF CONDITIONS: None. 1 of 53B-10Staff Findings of Fact 2 of 53B-10Development Services Department Staff Recommendations Concerning Required Findings Project Name & Case Number: Albert H. Ullrich Water Treatment Plant - SPC-03-0005C(R1) Ordinance Standard: Watershed Protection Ordinance Variance Request: To allow construction within 150-foot Critical Environmental Feature (CEF) buffer for a Rimrock CEF [LDC 25-8-281(C)(2)(b)]. Include an explanation with each applicable finding of fact. A. Land Use Commission variance determinations from Chapter 25-8-41 of the City Code: 1. The requirement will deprive the applicant of a privilege available to owners of similarly situated property with approximately contemporaneous development subject to similar code requirements. Yes. Other City of Austin water treatment plants have the same chemical feed system in place to help control zebra mussel infestations in the raw water transmission main. Chemical treatment is necessary to control zebra mussel infestations in raw water transmission mains. 2. The variance: a) Is not necessitated by the scale, layout, construction method, or other design decision made by the applicant, unless the design decision provides greater overall environmental protection than is achievable without the variance; Yes. The variance is not necessitated by the design. No alternative locations are available on site for a Zebra Mussel Mitigation System. The system must be placed in or near the existing intake pump house. There is not enough room in the existing pump station to house the entire system, such as the chemical storage. All the proposed construction coincides within areas of existing impervious cover. No additional impervious cover is being added. b) Is the minimum deviation from the code requirement necessary to allow a reasonable use of the property; 3 of 53B-10Yes. The variance is a minimum deviation from the code requirement and is allowing for a reasonable use of the property. No new impervious cover is proposed. The Zebra Mussel Mitigation System and the associated construction activities is in areas, or adjacent to areas, with existing impervious cover or development. The piping for the chemical storage and metering station is the shortest and most direct route to the existing building, and the system is located where there is already an asphalt driveway or development. c) Does not create a significant probability of harmful environmental consequences. Yes. The variance with the staff recommended conditions does not create a probability of significant harmful environmental consequences. Construction is within existing structures or where there is existing impervious cover. The chemical tank and piping are double contained. The equipment pad is curbed and covered with a canopy. The pump metering station includes a virtual day tank and there are automated valves at the pump bay that close if the pumps fail or when the pumps are not running. No new impervious cover is being added. As part of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, temporary sedimentation and erosion controls will be installed prior to the start of construction activities. The applicant is providing wetland plantings along the shoreline that will reduce shoreline erosion and reduce the possibility of sediment-laden surface runoff from entering the lake. 3. Development with the variance will result in water quality that is at least equal to the water quality achievable without the variance. Yes, the variance will result in water quality that is at least equal to the water quality achievable without the variance. The proposed construction will not impact existing water quality. No new impervious cover is proposed. During construction, Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan best practices will be employed to prevent construction sediment and debris from entering the stormwater runoff, and additional wetland plants along the shoreline will be provided to enhance the water quality of surface water runoff. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends the Findings of Fact have been met. B. The Land Use Commission may grant a variance from a requirement of Section 25-8- 422 (Water Supply Suburban Water Quality Transition Zone), Section 25-8-452 (Water Supply Rural Water Quality Transition Zone), Section 25-8-482 (Barton Springs Zone Water Quality Transition Zone), Section 25-8-368 (Restrictions on Development Impacting Lake Austin, Lady Bird Lake, and Lake Walter E.

Project: Zebra Mussel Mitigation Techniques – Chemical Storage and Feed System Ordinance: A. Land Use Commission variance determinations from Chapter 25-8-41 of the City Code: 1. The requirement will deprive the applicant of a privilege available to owners of similarly situated property with approximately contemporaneous development subject to similar code requirements. The proposed construction prevents zebra mussels from clogging the LSPS of Yes the water treatment plant. All water plants with LSPSs drawing water from zebra mussel infested water bodies will require treatment to prevent zebra mussels from settling on the pump intake equipment and piping. If there is no room in the existing pump station, then the new construction must be installed outdoors in protected areas adjacent to the lakeshore. 2. The variance: a) Is not necessitated by the scale, layout, construction method, or other design decision made by the applicant, unless the design decision provides greater overall environmental protection than is achievable without the variance; Yes The design decision to place the chemical storage and metering station next to the lakeshore is because the LSPS is already on the lakeshore. There is no other feasible location. b) Is the minimum deviation from the code requirement necessary to allow a reasonable use of the property; Yes The chemical storage and metering station was situated where there is already an asphalt driveway, which means the station will require no new impervious area. The chemical piping was routed in the shortest and most direct route and does not disturb any vegetated areas. c) Does not create a significant probability of harmful environmental consequences. The chemical storage and metering station is designed to prevent any Yes harmful environmental consequences. The tank and piping are double contained. The equipment pad is curbed and covered with a canopy. The pump metering station includes a virtual day tank and there are automated 10 of 53B-10valves at each pump bay that automatically close if the pumps fail and whenever the pumps are not running. Development with the variance will result in water quality that is at least equal to the water quality achievable without the variance. Yes The proposed construction will not impact existing water quality. During construction, SWPPP best practices will be employed to prevent construction sediment and debris from entering the stormwater runoff. B. Additional Land Use Commission variance determinations for a requirement of Section 25-8-422 (Water Quality Transition Zone), Section 25-8-452 (Water Quality Transition Zone), Article 7, Division 1 (Critical Water Quality Zone Restrictions), or Section 25-8-368 (Restrictions on Development Impacting Lake Austin, Lady Bird Lake, and Lake Walter E. Long): The criteria for granting a variance in Subsection (A) are met; Yes Installing a utility line in the CWQZ is permitted per Article 7 Division 1 (D) as long as the utility line follows the most direct path to minimize disturbance, which is true for the proposed utility lines. The proposed construction is inside the WQTZ but is being installed where an existing asphalt driveway exists. No new impervious cover is proposed. The requirement for which a variance is requested prevents a reasonable, economic use of the entire property; Yes The chemical storage and metering station will prevent zebra mussels from clogging the pump intake equipment and piping. Without it, the City would have to constantly physically remove the zebra mussels settling on the equipment at great expense. The variance is the minimum deviation from the code requirement necessary to allow a reasonable, economic use of the entire property. Yes The variance requested is the minimum deviation necessary to allow reasonable, economic use of the entire property. The chemical storage and metering station will prevent zebra mussels from clogging the pump intake equipment and piping. Without it, the City would have to constantly physically remove the zebra mussels settling on the equipment at great expense. 3. 1. 2. 3. **Variance approval requires all above affirmative findings. 11 of 53B-10CITY OF AUSTIN ULLRICH WTP ZEBRA MUSSEL CHEMICAL STORAGE AND FEED SYSTEM (8207.009) Project Location Map Legend ^* ULLRICH WTP / 0 Feet 800 800 1 inch = 1,700 feet BV PN 402943/198493 ^* OveriewUllrichWTPZebraMusselChemicalStorage&FeedSystem February 07, 2020 Edit this text with your name under File --> Map Document Properties --> Author 12 of 53B-10ULLRICH LSPS WATER QUALITY TRANSITION ZONE 30' 15' 0' 30' 60' SCALE 1"=30' LEGEND CRITICAL WATER QUALITY ZONE CRITICAL ENVIRONMENTAL FEATURE: WETLANDS CEF CRITICAL ENVIRONMENTAL FEATURE (CANYON RIMROCK)* A S X E T F O E T A T S I R E M R O D .

The assessment area is defined as the project area plus a 150-ft buffer. Approximately five-tenths of an inch of rain were recorded near the project area in the week before commencement of the field surveys. No rain was recorded during field surveys. For wetland identification, Baer Engineering used the recommended routine method, outlined in the COA ECM Section 1.10.3. This method assumes adequate hydrology and hydric soils if the area under examination is dominated (over 50% vegetative cover) by Facultative-wet and/or Obligate plant species (as listed in the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands, South Plains, Region 6, U.S. Department of the Interior, Washington D.C.) and an abrupt boundary is evident between these Facultative-wet and/or Obligate plant community and the Upland plant communities. The wetlands described in this report met the criteria in the wetland delineation method described above. No official delineation was conducted and the dimensions provided in this report are estimates. Four (4) CEFs (two wetlands, one rimrock, & one recharge feature) were observed within the assessment area. The CEFs are described below. Wetland, W-1: This wetland was observed along the eastern edge of the assessment area, at the shore of the Colorado River. The river bank was dominated by bald cypress (Taxodium distichum, OBL), with some glossy privet (Ligustrum lucidum, UPL), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica, FAC), and American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis, FAC). Jamaican sawgrass (Cladium mariscus, OBL) and taro (Colocasia esculenta, OBL) were observed beyond the fence line at the shore, but inaccessible. The wetland was approximately 5 to 60 feet wide, observed from the edge of the water, and approximately 250 feet long. Please see Photographs 1-2. Wetland, W-2: This wetland was observed northwest of the facility at the bank of the Colorado River, at the north end of the assessment area. Bald cypress, smallspike false nettle (Boehmeria cylindrica, FACW), and Emory sedge (Carex emoryii, FACW) dominated the area, along with some glossy privet and American sycamore. The wetland was approximately 15 feet wide from the edge of the water and 140 feet long following the shoreline. Please see Photographs 3-4. Rimrock, Ullrich Rimrock: Rimrock was observed at the center of the assessment area, northwest of the proposed roadway and southeast of the proposed work adjacent to the existing roadway. The rim rock extends northeast to southwest for approximately 430 feet. The estimated height of the rimrock is 30 feet from the base to the upper edge. Please see Photograph 5. Recharge Feature, Solution Recharge Feature: A recharge feature was observed within a depression that is approximately five to six feet below the nearby footpath surface and approximately three to four feet below the level of the nearby Colorado River. The depression contained several inches of leaf litter and detritus. The initial site visit was conducted after a rain event the evening before and little to no water was observed in the depression. Comparing the depression and rimrock discussed above to geologic maps of the area, these features appear to 33 of 53B-10Ullrich Pump Station – ERI Attachment December 13, 2019 Page 2 of 3 correlate with a mapped fault depicted on the site. The feature was approximately 350 long, 20 feet wide, and 4 feet below the surrounding grade. Please see Photographs 5-6. VEGETATION REPORT BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SITE PLANT COMMUNITIES: The Site is located in the U.S. EPA-defined Balcones Canyonlands ecoregion, described below: The Balcones Canyonlands are highly dissected through the erosion and solution of springs, streams, and rivers working both above and below ground; percolation through the porous limestone contributes to the recharge of the Edwards Aquifer. High gradient streams originating from springs in steep-sided canyons supply water for development on the Texas Blackland Prairies at the eastern base of the escarpment. This ecoregion supports a number of endemic plants and has a higher representation of deciduous woodland than elsewhere on the Edwards Plateau, with escarpment black cherry, Texas mountain-laurel, madrone, Lacey oak, bigtooth maple, and Carolina basswood. Some relicts of eastern swamp communities, such as baldcypress, American sycamore, and black willow, occur along major streamcourses. It is likely that these trees have persisted as relicts of moister, cooler climates following the Pleistocene glacial epoch. Toward the west, the vegetation changes gradually as the climate becomes more arid. Plateau live oak woodland is eventually restricted to north and east facing slopes and floodplains, and dry slopes are covered with open shrublands of juniper, sumac, sotol, acacia, honey mesquite, and ceniza. Vegetation within the project area was characterized by three habitat types: Juniper Woodland, Deciduous Floodplain Forest, and Mowed Grasses. The Juniper Woodland occupied the upland portions of the project area adjacent to the driveway. Canopy cover was mostly dense, with some open grassy areas on the eastern side. Trees were predominantly ashe juniper (Juniperus ashei) with some cedar elm (Ulmus crassifolia) and live oak (Quercus fusiformis). The moderately dense midstory included Texas persimmon (Diospyrus texana), Texas mountain laurel (Sephora secundaflora), agarita (Mahonia trifoliolata), yaupon (Ilex vomitoria), and elbowbush (Forestiera pubescens). Shrubby boneset (Ageratina havanensis) and cedar sedge (Carex planostachys) dominated the wooded understory. The grassy opening vegetation predominantly consisted of silver bluestem (Bothriochloa laguroides), doveweed (Croton monanthaginus), prairie coneflower (Ratibida columnifera), and other grasses and forbs as groundcover. Additionally, evergreen and flameleaf sumac (Rhus virens, Rhus lanceolata) and Texas kidneywood (Eysenhardtia texana) grew as a midstory with some prickly pear species (Opuntia sp.). Please see Photographs 7-9. The Deciduous Floodplain Forest was observed below the bluff, east of the paved driveway. Canopy cover was dense, with cottonwood (Populus deltoides), bald cypress, American sycamore, and glossy privet as overstory. Smaller woody vegetation included ash species (Fraxinus sp.) and chinaberry (Melia azedarach), with some groundcover from poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), frostweed (Verbesina virginica), and Virginia wild rye (Elymus virginicus). The understory vegetation had relatively low density. The previously- 34 of 53B-10Ullrich Pump Station – ERI Attachment December 13, 2019 Page 3 of 3 described wetlands occurred along the river bank on the edges of this habitat. Please see Photograph 10. Mowed Grasses were observed along the paved driveway within the project area. Identifiable grasses included silver bluestem and perennial rye (Lolium perenne), and forbs included lemon beebalm (Monarda citriodora), tie vine (Ipomoea cordatotriloba), western ragweed (Ambrosia psilostachya), Indian Blanket (Gaillardia pulchella), marestail weed (Erigeron canadensis), as well as plants as found in the wooded openings in the Juniper Woodland, described above.
