"Annual consumption" is the total quantity of water pur- chased under the terms of this contract by the Regional Airport Board during the fiscal year of the City of Fort Worth as determined by the difference in the annual September meter readings. "Average daily use" is the annual consumption divided by 365. "Maximum day usage" is the maximum quantity of water used during one calendar day of the fiscal year of the City of Fort Worth. "M.G.D." is million gallons per day. "T.G.P.D.11 is thousand gallons per day, "Fiscal Year" is the fiscal year of the City of Fort Worth from October I to September 30.

"Rate of use charge!" is the fixed charge determined for tho maximum day and the maximun, hour rates of use, Dallas -Fort Worth Regional if r Airport qoard Page 7 "Base rate" is composed of the commodity charge, and the rate of use charge. Rates. a. Method of Rate Determination. The annual rate charged by the City of Fort Worth for rendering water service under the terms of this contract shall be based upon the functional distribution of the total annual cost incurred in furnishing treated water to its customers, provided that nothing herein shall be construed as contemplating an annual rate of less than the regular City of Fort Worth water only rate, plus 10 percent of said rate. b. Rates to be used, The annual rate to be charged for water shall include the proper proportionate parts of the maintenance and operation cost as related to the production and transmission facilities of the total Fort Worth Water System, the capital facilities cost (fixed charges) on the production and transmission plant related to the rendition of service at maximum withdrawal rates of use by the Regional Airport Board and the raw water costs. The charges of the initial period of the contract which shall terminate September 30, 1972, have been computed to be 'na as follows: (1) The commodity charge shall be 14.4 cents per 1,000 gallons withdrawn by the customer. (2) The annual rates of use charges for maximum day usage shall be $15,810.00 per M.G,D. and maximum hour rate of usage in excess of the maximum day shall be $7,070.00 per M.G.D. (3) The service charge shall be $25.00 per month per meter. c. Adjustment of Rate. (1) Raw Water The amount charged for raw water shall be increased or decreased proportionately when the raw water cost paid by the City of Fort Worth for water available for treatment and sale to the Regional Airport Board is increased or de- creased. At the time of execution of this contract, the rate, including 16 percent for system losses, to the Regional Airport Board is 1.2 cents per 1,000 gallons. The portion of the raw water charge which reflects system losses shall be adjusted in the manner set out in sub para- graph (2) below in accordance with actual experience dur- ing the preceding period,. If the Regional Airport Board enters the Tarrant County Water Control and Imorovement District 1*'_ I irid the ra-,,,q water rate ttken being paid by the City of Fort Vorth to the District for water furnished under this contract ti is reduced as a result thereof, the raw water rate then.4einct paid by the Regional Airport Board to the City of Fort Worth Dal las-Fort Worth Regional Airport Board Page 8 hereunder shall be reduced in the same proportion. (2) Commodity charge and rates of use charges. The rate shall be reviewed and adjusted every five years except that the first such review shall be based on the annual cost of operation for the fiscal years 1970-71 and 1971-72. The cost related to the production and transmission function of distribut- ing treated water to the Fort Worth city limits in wholesale quantities plus a service charge shall be de- termined in accordance with methods herein. Such costs shall be projected through the City of Fort Worth fiscal year 1975 to establish the fair rate for water to be charged during the period October 1, 1972, to September 30, 1977. The adjusted rate shall be made effective October 1, 1972. A similar review and rate adjustment shall be made for each succeeding five-year period for the term of the contract. 7, 1 ,ayment for Water Payment of charges to the City of Fort Worth for water used by the Regional Airport Board shall be made as follows: r. Ae Minimum Annual Payment During the period when the Regional Airport is being fur- nished its total water supply from the Fort Worth system, the Regional Airport Board agrees to pay the City of Fort Worth the annual rate of use charge based on a withdrawal rate of 0.92 MGD from the Fort Worth water system, the commodity charges for the quantity of water used and the meter charges. The minimum annual charge is subject to negotiation after the City of Dallas water main has been placed in service to the Regional Airport, Minimum annual charges may then be reviewed and adjusted based on actual rather than estimated water requirements of the Regional Airport system and based on the Airport utilizing the Fort Worth water system for approximately one-third of its water requirements and utilizing the City of Dallas water system for approximately two-thirds of its water requ; rements. It is agreed that the minimum annual payment to the City of Fort Worth for the rate of use charges shall not be less than the amortization cost of the facilities constructed hereunder or under any amend ents hereto at the expense of the City of Fort Worth for the exclusive use of the Regional Airport. b, Maximum Rate of Delivery The rate at which water is withdrawn from the City of Fort Worth system by the Regional Airport Board shall be regulated by a rate of flow controller, pumps or other g - approved methods. The rate of withdrawal shall be controlled so that the maximum rate wall not exceed 1.25 times the "'maximum day rate" of withdrawal experienced during the previous year unless the Regional Airport Board has notified the Director of the Fort Worth Water Department in writing Dallas -Fort Worth Regional Airport Beard Page at least six months prior to the date of the anticipated increase in maximum rate of withdrawal and has furnished all pertinent information regarding the proposed increase to the Director of the Fort Worth Water Department and said Director has given his written approval thereof, except that the said Director may waive all notice require- ments, if, in his opinion, said notice is not necessary to protect the interest of the City of Fort Worth. c. Minimum Monthly Charge. For the first five-year period of the contract the mini- mum monthly charge shall be $1,237.10 for which payment the Regional Airport Board shall be entitled to withdraw at the rate of 0.92 M.G.D. If the Regional Airport Board is requested by the City of Fort Worth to restrict withdrawal of water in accordance with the terms of this agreement so that the quantity with- drawn per month by the Regional Airport Board is less than the quantities shown herein for the minimum monthly charge, the minimum charge shall be reduced to the correct charge computed in accordance with the terms of this agreement for the actual quantity withdrawn. d. Monthly Payment The monthly payment shall include the minimum charge plus the commodity charge multiplied by the quantity of water withdrawn from the Fart Worth system during the month. Such payment shall not be less than the charge calculated at the Fart Werth Water Rate plus 10 per cent plus the added raw water cost for water sold outside the boundaries of the Tarrant County Water Control and improvement District Noy l plus $25.00 monthly service charge per master meter. e. Annual Payment The actual total annual payment for water by the Regional Airport Beard shall be related to the annual and pear volumes used by the customer during the fiscal year as determined by meters, flaw recording devices or other approved methods. The September bill shall reflect any necessary adjustment in the ,annual payment clue to the actual rates of withdrawal from the Fort, Werth system. If the initial period of use of water by the Regional Airport Board under the terms of this agreement ent is less than a fiscal year, the annual rates of use charges shall be re- duced in the proportion that the period of use bears to the fiscal year.
