After reviewing your comments in Item #1 and my October 31, 2002 Engineering Report it became obvious to me that maybe you do not have a copy of that report available to you. Well 02 was constructed over 5 years ago and has been in continuous service since. Well #2 was cited in the recent survey for being improperly sealed with no casing vent These two items were corrected the first part of this year by Eco Resources. I did not expand upon the sanitary survey line Item violations for Well #2 in my October 31 report because It was my understanding that documentation for this was submitted to your agency after completion of corrective action. All violations identified in that sanitary survey for Well #3 and appurtenant items at the Well #3 site have been corrected as described in my October 31 report and 'as built plans. All information regarding Well #3 in Item #1 is in the bound October 31 report I addressed the October 31 submittal to Dave Laughlin, PE so if he doesn't have it I will be glad to provide you an additional copy. Please advise. Item #2: Also included in that report are copies of certified maiUreturn receipt sent to the two adjacent residential property owners requesting the easement At this time it appears that they are unwilling to grant an easement and Ian herewith, on behalf of Hazy Hills Water System, requesting a variance to this requirement by providing monthly water analysis monitoring reports to your agency for Well #3.

IM11Q P7oouVi1lTES 51 -295-34oa7320 P. 3/11P .3 ^ V-1 item #3: It has been my understanding since the PUC was fonned and rules promulgated in the late I g70's that a retail utility service provider could extend service outside its certificated area up to % mile as long as the area was not certificated to another utility offering the same service or another utility offering the same service objected. Check this with Doug Holcomb, PE. The connections you are referring to are within this distance from the easterly certificated area line as I have approximated its location from TCEQ water maps and the Travis County Tax map that was included in my October 31 submittal. Again if you don't have this please let me know and I will provide another. You attached the foiiowing TCEQ standard forms to your December 16 letter. 1.

If there is no copy in your files, I assume you have looked, I offer the following observations made on site, December 20, 2002, between the hours of 9;00 and 10:30 am: • There are no abandoned or inoperative wells and existing/potential pollution hazards within'/. mile of Well M. • There are no sewage treatment plants, lands on which sewage plant or septic tank sludge is applied lands irrigated by sewage plant effluent animal feed lots livestock and animal pens solid waste disposal sites within 500 feet of Well #3 • There are no sewage wetwells sewage pump stations ditches containing sewage treatment waste or industrial waste within 300 feet of well 83 • There are no septic tank perforated drain fields absorption beds evapotranspiroation beds privies underground fuel storage tanks cemetery areas irrigated by low dosage low angle spray on site sewage fepiities underground petrochemical storage tanks of pipelines water wells that do not meet public drinking water standards within 150 feet of Well #3 • There are no Me or concrete sanitary sewers septic tanks livestock in pastures or storm sewers with in 50 feet of Well #3 • Well casing is as described in the October 31 report it complies with the referenced specification • Well was disinfected upon completion for B hrs_ See bacteriological reports contained in my October 31 report • • Well head and sealing slab is over 2 feet above 100 yr flood elevation Sealing slab is 3 feet from well casing • Wellhead is sealed with compound Jarl3'SW92do, M December 20, 2002 Pagc2of3 C ^Mac..u r, 1 h.LA C..1004 ,11;16AM uY. ujr. tCU Kesources, Inc. ► ^.1w ^., ^^., ^.,.. ^ ^^ T ES 512-Z95-3No' 4 /j1U • T • • Sampling cock is provided Flow meter is provided • • Intruder resistant fence is provided All weather access mad is in place • Public Well completion checklist is included in my October 31 report The form you have included with your December 16 letter is apparently a new one that was not available to me at the time I prepared the report that includes the highlighted sentence under No. 4.
