Authorize the City Manager to execute a Joint Funding Agreement for water resources investigations with the United States Geological Survey (USGS); and 2. Authorize the payment of the City's share of the cost in the amount of$28,660 for 2000-2001 USGS monitoring and monitors. DISCUSSION: On October 15, 1975 (M&C C-3219), the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an agreement providing that the City join other wastewater agencies in the region to form the Upper Trinity River Basin Water Quality Compact (Compact). The members share equally in the cost of operation of the Compact's programs. The City has participated in the Compact since the group's inception. The purpose of the Compact is to ensure that a water quality-sampling program is established and continued, providing reliable data on the quality of the Trinity River in the North Central Texas area. USGS gathers this water quality data, which allows identification of both point and non-point sources of pollution. This data is used to assign wasteload allocations in wastewater permits. The City's share of the cost to continue participating in the program from October 1, 2000, to September 30, 2001, is $28,660. Total program cost allocations are as follows: 4 AGENCY CONTRIBUTION Fort Worth $ 28,660 Dallas 28,660 Trinity River Authority . 28,660 USGS 73,320 TOTAL $159,300 Three years ago, the USGS changed its billing policy to require an approved funding agreement before the work is performed.
