the proposals:
1. Watershed Assessment-- What user and uses in the Mokelumne River watershed
could affect the quality of the water at Lodi, thereby influencing the treatment needs?
2. Alternative Site Evaluations — A maximum of four sites will be considered, and
direction from the City Council will be sought early in the program.
3. Conceptual Design Criteria — Limiting the facility alternatives to conventional and
membrane technology and what will be the facility design criteria required to meet
State and Federal drinking water quality standards?
4. Capital and Annual Operating Cost Estimates — An important part of comparing the
alternatives will be in understanding the capital costs, as well as the operation and
maintenance costs, including personnel.

operationally inexpensive to those that are capital light but operationally expensive.

and phasing, operations and maintenance costs and the impact on the rates, and the
revenue stream resulting from new development to determine the timing and
feasibility of constructing a new water treatment facility.
