This report has outlined the costs of the basic improvements
needed and developed possible methods of financing. Dependent upon the re-
celpt of a FWPCA tr'ederal grant and a State grant, as outllned in the above
discussion, the combined monthly sewer and water cost for Ehe proposed im-
provements would be approxinately $5.52. If the present average nonthly
water and sewer charges are added to this amount, the total combined average
nonthly selrer user and water user cost would be somewhere bet\reen $9.02 and
$11,07. This anount wouLd be dependent upon what the lndividual user's
present monthly sewer charge is. As previousJ-y menti.oned, once the present
general obllgation bond on the existing sewerage system explres in 1980, the
average monthly user cost would decrease. A comblned cost of fron $9.02 to
$11.07 per xoonth for sewer and water servlces j.n a community the size of
Meridian la not consldered, by FIIA, aa an unreasonable cost for such services,
Fron thls, lt can be concluded that it i6 econooically feaeible for the Cj.ty
to undertake the required improvements.
In vie!, of the foregoing, and 1in order that the City of Meridian
may have a workable plan for water system and sewerage system improvements,
it is recommended that the follot^ring action be taken:
1. Adopt the concept proposals for water system and
systen lnprovements develoied in this investlgation as a guide
enactEent of a prellninary engineering study.
s elrerag e
toward the
2. Provide for funding as needed to fiuance the prellminary
engineering report.
3. Upon obtalning financing for the prelimlnary englneerlng report,
authorlze the Engineers to proceed r^rith the preliminary engineering rePort on

INTRODUCTION
The following report has been prepared by using reconnalssance
survey methods for the purpose of determj.ning the extent of water supply,
transmission, and distribution system improvements required to provlde an
adequate water supply for consumer use and improved fire protectioni to
determine the extent of sewerage system lmprovenenEs required to provide
adequate service to the City; Eo allow for future expansion of the City
j.a conformance with Ehe State Water Pollution Control regulations; to de-
velop the range of costs of such improvements; and, to deceraine the econotric
feasibility of these coastruction projects, all to serve the Clty of Meridian,
Ada County, Idaho.
NEED
The existing ri,ater supply for the City of Meridian is basically
adequate to meet present domestlc demands of the comnunity, but is insufficient
to provide the required fire flows in many portions of the City. The water
transmission and distrlbution system is generally adequate in the principal
business district, but has numerous deficiencies in the outlying portions of
the City due to many sma11 diameter pipelines. This is an undesirable conditi-on
not only from the standpoint of poor pressure supplied to the consumers, but
lt also results in inadequate fire protection 1n Ehese areas and discourages
comunity grorrth. Therefore, a definite need exists for providing additional
water and upgrading portions of the transmission and distribuEion systex0 if
-1-
Merldian is to properly serve its existlng domestic users, is to provide for
conmunity growEh, and is to provide all areas of the conununity \rith adequate
fire protection.
The outlying sewer line laterals of the Meridian sewage collection
system are generally at a minimum depth and, because of terraln condltions,
they could not be further extended oo even a minimal grade and serve rnuch
additional area uEilizing gravity flow in the sewer 1ines. Further, the
capaciry of these lateral lines does not permit the extensive use of sewage
lift stations, where gravity flow is not feasible. Therefore, a situation
exlsts to either provide a lrethod to exEend the existing sewage collection
or trunk line sewer systen, or to furnish addiEional sewage colleetion and
trunk line sewer capabilities to serve the anticipated population grolrth of
the CiEy. Also, the present sewage treatment plant is heavily overloaded
during the irrigation season due to infiltration of ground uTater inEo the
coll-ectj"on system. As the treatment plant is unable to handLe the present
sewage f1ows, to say nothing of the future sewage f lornrs, there is a definite
need to either expand the present treatment facilities or Eo eliminate the
ground lrater from the sewerage system.
If the City of Meridian is to meet the challenge of a rapidly in-
creasing population and conpete with its neighboring communities, Ehe need
becomes qulte apparent for improvement to the water systen in the form of
increased supply and upgrading of the transx0ission and distribution system,
and for an improved sewage collectlon and treatment sysEem.
-2-
EXISTING FACILITIES
The present. source of r,/ater supply for the CiEy of Meridian i.s the
underground lrater table with four deep wells and turblne type pumps. The
four pumps discharge directly into the distribution system against the 88-foot
head of the elevated storage reservoir. The four pumps have a combined roEal
water output of 1350 galLons per minute (gpm). Storage consists of a 60,000
gallon elevated steel tank which provides for the system pressure. Fire flows
are reported as sufficient in the prlncipal buslness district but generally
inadequate elsewhere. In the principal business distri.ct, existing water
mains are eight-inch and six-inch diameter pipelines with good looped con-
nections, thereby providing the adequate pressure and good fire flows to the
users. In the outlylng portions of the Clty, the exisEing Eains consist of a
linited amount of six-inch diameEer pipetines, a large percentage of four-
inch diameter pipelines, and many smaller pipelines which are inadequate to
serve as distribution 1ines, The absence of a sufficlent number of looped
connections in the outlying portions of the CiEy and/or the inadequately
sized mains and distribution lines resul,t in an inadequate water supply to
the consumer and poor fire flows. In many cases, it also reduces water circu-
lation rshich could create a stagnant water condi.tion at the eods of dead end
1ines.
Se\*rer System:
The existing sewage eollection system consists of l8-inch, I5-inch,
l2-inch, ten-inch, and eight-inch diameter pi.pelines. The sewer lines provide
adequate service for most of the City at present, but in many cases, due to the
-3-
Water Svs tem:
shallo\^, depth at the ends of the sewer lines and the relatively flat teEain,
further expansion utilizing gravity flow in the sewer lines is impossible.
Also, the eight-inch diameter IaEeraI sewefs do not lend theoselves to an
extensive lift stati.on installation as a method of serving additional areas.
The present ser,rage treatment facillty for MerLdlan is a mechanical
plant which was placed in operation in 1956. It consists of a control station,
grit chamber, sludge digester, primary and secondary clarifiers, trickling
filter, chlorine contact basin, and sludge drying beds. It is reported Lhat
the treatment plant is in fair condition with some repai.r work indicated.
The plant is capable of handling the sewage volume generated during the winter
months, but it is heavily overloaded during the irrigation season due to the
ground lrater infiltration into the sewage collection system. Therefore, either
expansion of the treatment facilities or elimination of the ground water will
be requj.red before the City can properly treat lts sewage in conformance rrlth
the StaEe Water Pollution Control regulations.
A shallow well pumping insEallation under the Federal demonstration
grant program is now in operation. Data and results from
of extrene value in the final decisi.on on how to overcome
treatment plant deficiencies.
this program will be
the present sewage
Water Sys tem:
Preliminary investigation has indicated thar the City of Meridian
needs to supplement its present water production rate with an additi.onal 600-
to 700jpm sustained supply in order to adequately supply the anticipated
future domestic demand and also to provide iroproved fire protection to the
-4-
PROPOSED I}PROVEMENTS
comnunity. This 600- to 700-gpm additional supply could be provided through
the installation of a large well and pump, by an additional elevaled storage
reservoj-r, or by a coEbinaEion of an additional well and storage reservoir.
At this early stage of planning, it is proposed that Ehe supplemental water
supply be provided through the use of an additional elevated storage reser-
voir. The cost of installing another well and puurp would be comparable. A
more detailed evaluati.on of these methods will need to be made when Ehe
proposed preliminary engineering report is authorized,
It is proposed that the water transmissi-on and distribuEion system
for the Citi be i.mproved and extended to provide better service fot the resi-
dents and adequate fire protection. A system of ten-inch, eight-inch, and
six-inch mains need to be provided throughouE the City. Those mains should
be patterned on a grid system in which the Lines form closed loops and de-
signed in such a manner that all areas will be served with a sufficient supply
of water at an adequate pressure. Initial evaluation indicates the need for
a najor transmission line of approximately ten-inch dianeter running in a
North and South direction through the center of the City lriEh the eight-inch
and six-inch pipelines branching from it to form a distrlbution network. In
addition to extending the presenE system, this will require the replacement
of some of the existing smaller lines wlth larger pipelines in many areas.
Sewer System:
As mentioned previously in this report' a nethod of expanding
Meridiants sewage eollection system Eo better serve the City and to provide
for the expeeted PoPulation Srol'th must be established' Two possibilities
of expanding the Present sewage col'lection system seem to be available'
They are to either utilize the existing system and extend it by using
-5-
inEernediate seirage lift stations, or to construct additional trunk sewer
lines along the two major drainages adjacent to the City from which a supple-
mental collection system could be developed and expanded. At this stage of
planning, and without the aid of the more detailed information to be developed.
for the proposed preltninary engineering report, the construction of additlonal
trunk sewer lines seems to be the most practical and long range solution for
expansion of the sewage collection systen. It is proposed that the two ad-
ditional trunk sewer lines, which are to be constructed along the two major
drainages adjacent to Merldian, conslst of l8-inch and ls-inch diameter pipelines.
These tlro trunk ser.rer lines would utilize gravity fl-ow for the sewage to reach
the treatment plant, at which point it would run into a conmon lift station
and be pumped into the treatment facil,ities.
There are severai- alternates which could be considered to relieve
the overloaded eondition of the present ser.,age treatment pl,ant. A few possible
alternates are as follor{s: upgrade and expand the present mechanieal sewage
treatment plant facil,iEiesl upgrade and utilize Ehe present treatment plant
in combination r,rith a suppleEental mechanical treatment pl-ant or a seLrage
lagoon treatment facility at a new downstream location; utllize a sewage 1a-
goon treatrnent facility at a new do\rrrstream location which would be designed
to treat all of the Cityrs sewage volume, and thus, gradually enable the
present treatment plant to be phased out of operation; and finally, based
upon the favorable results of Ehe demonstration grant pumping to lower lhe
ground water, it might be possible to install pumps throughout the City and
lower the ground lrater table enough to effectively decrease infilEratlon
into the system. If the alternate chosen is to be that of lowering the
ground water table by punping, then some type of treatment plant expansion
wlll still have to be progranmed in order to handle the additional sewage
-6-
volume lrhich will be generated from the anticlpated population growth.
These alternates wil-l- be studied in more detail and also a more detailed
evaluation of the present treatment facilities will be developed in the
proposed preliDinary engineering report to be subsequently undertaken.
GeneralJ-y, the cost of the alternates appear to be comparable.
Table I sholrs the tentative preliminary estimated costs and the
extent of improvemenEs necessary to the water supply, transmission and dis-
tribution system, and also to the serrage collection and treatment system.
Table II shows the portion of the sewerage systeo facilities costs
which, based on recently passed legislation, are eligible for a 25 per cent
State grant and a Federal l.tater Pollution Control Administration (fl,fPCA)
50 per cent Federal grant. If the State grant is not available, then the
EWPCA grant is reduced to 30 per cent.
PRELIMINARY !'INANCING APPBAISAI,
In the discussion that fo1lows, there rrill be developed an appraisaL
of some possible means of financing the required municipal water supply and
distribution system and the required sewage coJ,lection and treatment system,
as well as an esti.Date of the total cost of maintenance and operati"on of
these facilities. The City, through its fiscal agent, or other qualified
peopJ-e, nill geE expert advice on the most desirabLe way to finance the
proposed improvements, and the discussion herein is only intended to show
Ehe general feasibility of the various meEhods of financing.
Table I gives the lentative preliminary estimated costs of the
rrater supply, transmission, and distribution system improvements at $566r000.

*For the purpose of this report, it shall be assumed that the City of
Meridian will be eligible fot a 257. State Grant on the se!{age treatment
and outfall sewer facilities i.n accordance rrith the recently enacted
legislation for ldaho. If the City does receive a 252 state Grant,
theo, in addition to the usual Fl^l"CA, 302 Federal Grant, they r.lould
also be eligible for an additional 207. Federal Grant, which would give
a total zuPCA Grant of 50:l ot Ehe cost of the sewage treacment and out-
fall sewer facilities.

The Farmers l{ome Administration (FHA) currently has a program which can provide
up to a 50 per cent I'ederal grant on the costs of water system improvements,
Honever, lt appears that the City of Meridian would not be eliglble for this
grant under the present tr'I{A requirements. This will be evaLuated in greater
detail for the proposed prellminary report which is to be subsequently under-
taken. Therefore, for this analysis, it shall be assumed that the Clty will
have to fi.nance the entire water system improvement project without the aid of
a Federal grant.
Table I also gives the tenEatlve preliminary estimated cosEs of the
sewerage outfaLl and treatment faciliEies improvements at $970,000. The City
of Meridian is eligible for a 25 per cent State grant on the sewage treatment
and outfall sewer facilities improvements a6 listed in lab1e II, based on re-
cently enacted legislatlon by the Idaho State Legislature. Provlded the City
does receive a 25 per cent State granE, thenr in addition to the usuaL Federal
WaEer Pollutlon Control Ad;inisEration 30 per cent grant, the City will also
be e1lgible for an additional 20 per cent Federal grant, which would give a
toEal EWPCA grant of 50 per cent on the cost of the sewage treatment and out-
fa1l sewer facilities improvements listed in Table II. Furthermore, if the
county ln rrhich the city is located has a comprehensive plan, then the FhPCA
can also give a 10 per cent grant on the 30 per cent or 50 per cent grant,
which, in essence, would give an over-all zuPCA grant of 33 per cent or 55 per
cent. Since Ada County has done certain comprehensive planning and is developing
additional comprehensi.ve planning programs, Meridian could be eligibl-e for this
additional three per cent or five per cent grant. Even though the additional
grant may be available, it rril1 not be included in the financial appraisal for
this report. If the three per cent or five per cent grant should be obtained
it lrould have the desired effect of reducing the 1ocal contrlbution for the project.

For this feasibility analysis, it is assumed that the State grant
program will be adequately funded and that Meridlan will receive a 25 per cent
SEate granE as well as the 50 per cent FWPCA grant for the eligible items listed
in Table II. Thus, the State grant would amount to $235,000, the r,,IPCA grant.
would amounE to $4701000, and the CiEyrs share would be $235,000 for Ehe balance
of the sewage treatment and outfall sewer facili.ties inprovements, plus an ad-
ditional $30,000 for non-eligible grant items such as land and right of way
costs, some legal and adninistrative costs, etc, 'rhich would give a total City
contribution of S265,000.
The Cityrs share of the costs for the proposed improvemenls to Ehe
water systerD and Ehe sewerage system is of such financial, magnitude thar it is
beyond the scope of the general budgetary funds that could be nade available by
the ciry.
General obligation .bonds would be a method by which the City could
raise the funds to pay for their share of the costs of the proposed water system
and sewerage system improvements. General obligation bonds are backed by the
fu1l taxing power of the City on all property wlthin the City. While the bonds
are backed by the taxing power of the City, it is not necessary that they be
retired from taxes. I'requenEly, general obligatlon bonds are reEired with reve-
nue received from operatlng the systen. Since the recodification of the Municipal
Law Ln recent years, there i.s no legal limit on the amount of general obligation
bontls whlch a city can issue for construction of a water system or a se$rerage
system. If the Cityrs share of the costs of the proposed water system and
serrerage system improvements, which is estimated to l-. s831,000, were financed
through the lssuance of general obligation bonds, the City of Meridian would
have a total of $959,000 worth of general obligation bonds outstanding, including
-11-
Ehe existing $128,000 of outstanding bonds on the present sewerage system.
These general obligation bonds would then represent approximately forty-five
(45) per cent of the City of Meridian's $2,L48,664 assessed valuation for
1969. This uethod of financi.ng the City's portion of the proposed improvemenc
proJects costs will be devel.oped in more detail in the preliminary repor!.
The direct revenue bond Dethod of financlng is also available to
provide for the Cityrs share of the costs of the proposed improvements. In
the revenue bond type of financing, the revenue from Ehe rrater system and
the revenue from the sewerage system are pledged to repay the bonds and the
indebtedness does not occur against Ehe property as in the case of generaL
obli.gati-on bondi.ng, Use of revenue bonds provi.des an equitable distribtuion
of cost of the facilities in that the user pays for the improvements. For
the purpose of this report, it shall be assuned that a revenue bond method of
financlng w111 be used for.funding the urater system lmprovements and for
funding the Cityrs portion of the sewerage system improvements, and that the
Federal and State grants,as described above, w111 be available to the City in
the full aoounts estimated. For projection purposesr Ehe revenue bonds will
be based upoo a 3o-year repa)rment at an interes! rate of five per cent, which
is the current rate for financing that is available through the FIIA loan prograq
that is available to cities under 5,500 population. For the purpose of ar-
ri.ving at an average typical user cost, i.t is assumed that there will be 1010
water users and 975 sewer users paying a monthly charge to the City. This
monthly charge would be ln addition to the present rnonthly rrater and sewer
charges and would be used for bond redemption and interest, plus additlonal
maintenance and operational costs. In addition to a nominal cost of maintaining
and operating the physical facilities of the water system and sewer sysEem, the
City will have the expenses of the collections, disbursement of funds, and other
-L2-
administrative costs. At this early stage of planning, the annual maintenance
and operational costs of the additional water and sewerage facilities is esti-
oated to be $6,000 per year in the early years of the projects. 0f this amount,
$2,000 will apply to the water system lmprovements and $4,000 wilJ, apply to the
sewerage system improveEents,
The following is a tentative preliminary user cost analysls based upon
the suggested method of financing chosen i.n the above discussion:

In the areas of Meridian where the monthly sewer user charge is

existing monthl-y rates for water and sewer and the required rates
for the proposed water system and sewerage system improvenents
would be approxinaEely $9.02. In the areas of Meridlan where the
nonthly sewer user charge 1s $3.30, the total average nonthly rate
for the combination of the existing monthly raEes for water and
sewer and the requirett rates for the proposed water system and
sewerage system inprovements would be approxlmatety $11.07.

during the early years of bond repalrnent, the najority of the
revenue from the monthly user charges would be applied to paying
only interesE on the revenue bond. In this r^ray, the combined
monthly sewer user charge could be decreased somewhat fron the
charges projected above unEil the present general obligation
bond on the sewerage system expires in 1980. This would lessen
the effect of the overlapping of the present general obligation
bond and the proposed revenue bond. This possibility will be
developed further in the preliminary englneering report which is
to be subsequently undertaken.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
0n the basis of the foregoing discussion, it has been deterrnined that
the City of Meridian needs to make substantial improvements to its nunicipal
water systen in order to provide adequate domestic r^,ater service, proper fire
protection, and Eo permit orderly growth of the community. A1so, the present
overloaded coodition of the sewage treatnent plant and the limited expansion
capabllity of the existing sewage collection system presents a condition which
couLd be a definite hinderance to the future health and welfare of the City
and which should be corrected in the near future. Furthernore, if the Ctty of
Meridian is to full-y realize its growth potential, adequate water and sewer
facilities are essential. Therefore, if the proposed water and sewer fa-
cllities are constructed, they will not only have a net result of maintaining
or increasi.ng land value nithin the cornmunity, but will be a basis for attracting
and accommodating new growth to the City.
