(SEAL) Notary Public Signature Water Application Page 3 of 3 revised December 2015 EXHIBIT A III. ADDITIONAL APPLICATION INFORMATION - Exhibit A This exhibit contains the information required for Items a. and C. from the Water Contract Application and General Information Form. The requested diversion is upstream of the Highland Lakes, SO Item b. is not required. Based on conversations with LCRA, an accounting plan may not be needed, SO Item C. is not addressed. Item a. Information As requested in Item a. this section contains the following information: A detailed description of how you determined the amount necessary, for the proposed contract, including consideration of the beneficial use of the water without waste and the full implementation of your proposed water conservation plan Diversion Request The City of Llano (City) is willing to enter into a contract for water supply from the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA) for a maximum annual quantity (MAQ) up to 487 acre-feet per year (ac-ft/yr). The purpose of the contract is to allow the City to make use of flows for municipal use at City Lake that otherwise would need to be passed downstream for LCRA's senior water rights. The amount requested in this contract is based on the difference between the annualized average drought- of-record diversion for Certificate of Adjudication (COA) 14-1655, assuming that diversion is fully reliable (1,187 ac-ft/yr) and the annualized average annual diversion for all the City's water rights acting as a system over the same time period (700 ac-ft/yr). The drought-of-record is assumed to be from October 2007 through April 2015, which is the drought-of-record for Lakes Buchanan and Travis as determined in the Region K modeling. Maximum Annual Quantity (MAQ) Requested = (1,187 - 700) ac-ft/yr = 487 ac-ft/yr The City's 2024 Water Conservation Plan identifies a goal of achieving 178 gallons per capita per day (GPCD) by 2029 and 176 GPCD by 2034. The City recognizes that the modeled diversion amounts can differ from actual diversion amounts and with the implementation of the City's Water Conservation Plan (Exhibit E) and Drought Contingency Plan (Exhibit F), actual diversions could be less. Determination of Volume Requested Table 1 summarizes the two water rights owned by the City of Llano. These water rights are included as Attachment 1 of this Exhibit. The City is seeking to make CoA 14-1655 reliable through its contract with LCRA by eliminating the need to pass water to LCRA's senior water rights. This water right is associated 1 with City Lake, which is the location of the intake to the City's water treatment plan. The City is not seeking additional reliability for COA 14-1650, which is associated with Park Lake and is used primarily for irrigation purposes. Table 1. City of Llano Existing Water Right Authorizations Authorized Authorized Water Right Priority Date Diversion Storage (ac-ft/yr) (ac-ft) COA 14-1655 6/13/1914 1,200 200 (City Lake) 12/10/1956 383 12/10/1956 400 317 COA 14-1650 (Park Lake) 6/1/1976 100 Total 1,700 700 Although the COA 14-1655, the water right that the City desires to make reliable, authorizes a diversion of 1,200 ac-ft/yr, for the purposes of calculating the proposed volume for this contract, the City has elected to use the annualized diversion by this right over the drought-of-record for Lakes Buchanan and Travis. This approach is consistent with how supplies were determined in the Region K plan and methods employed by LCRA when determining firm supplies. Region K yield modeling determined that the drought- of-record for Buchanan and Travis is a 7.6-year period from October 2007 to April 2015. Using these assumptions, the annualized diversion for COA 14-1655 over this period is 1,187 ac-ft/yr, which is less than 1,200 ac-ft/yr because it includes diversions outside of the higher demand summer months in incomplete years (2007 and 2015). Table 2 illustrates how the annualized average was calculated. 2 Table 2.

This is a modified version of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) Water Availability Model (WAM) Run 3 (2023) developed for the 2026 planning cycle. Region K used this model to evaluate the firm yield of the Highland Lakes and the available supplies from run-of-river rights, including LCRA's rights. It uses a "cutoff" assumption where water rights in the lower Colorado Basin do not make priority calls on water rights located upstream of Lake Brownwood and Lake Ivie. The model assumes 2030 sediment conditions throughout the basin. The Region K model is similar to LCRA's Standard Firm Yield (SFY) model. For this analysis, additional modifications were made to the modeling of the City's two water rights, which are discussed below. Electronic copies of all modeling files are included as Attachment 2 of this Exhibit. In 2022, LCRA performed bathymetric surveys of the City's two reservoirs. Since these surveys are more accurate than the generic storage characteristics in the original WAM, they were incorporated into the models used for this analysis. However, these surveys showed that the two reservoirs impound more water than the authorized storage in the water rights. Therefore, the modeling used in this analysis limited the use of these reservoirs for water supply by applying an assumed dead storage in each reservoir. The storage assumptions are shown in Table 3. 3 Table 3. City of Llano Existing Water Right Authorizations and Modeled Storage Authorized Modeled Storage Water Right Priority Date Storage (ac-ft) (ac-ft) 385 total with 200 active 6/13/1914 200 COA 14-1655 and 185 inactive (City Lake) 568 total with 383 active 12/10/1956 383 and 185 inactive 488 total with 317 active 12/10/1956 317 CoA 14-1650 and 171 inactive (Park Lake) 6/1/1976 Total 700 1,056 The second modification to the Region K model is coordinated operation of the two City water rights to maximize the potential supply under strict priority operation. In this operation, the City's 1914 priority diversions from City Lake are backed up at the 1956 priority by diversions from Park Lake storage. (Park Lake's 1956 priority authorizations come before City Lake's 1956 authorizations in the priority sequence because Park Lake is upstream of City Lake.) Any shortages from these 1956 priority diversions from Park Lake are then backed up by 1956 priority diversions from City Lake storage. Finally, shortages from the 1956 priority diversions from City Lake are backed up at the 1976 priority from Park Lake. Using these assumptions in the Region K model, with both City water rights operating at their full permitted diversion results in an average annualized diversion of 700 ac-ft/yr over the drought-of-record. Table 4 demonstrates how the annualized diversion was calculated. 4 Table 4.

Item C. Information As requested in Item C. this section contains the following information: For a proposed contract) for water upstream of any oft the Highland Lakes, or water. from a tributary of the Colorado River downstream of the Highland Lakes, a technical analysis shall be performed to determine the potential maximum impact oft the proposed contract on LCRA's water rights. (See Water Contract Rule 5.1(K).) Applicant also shall include such impact in its application to the Texas Commission on Environmenta Quality for any Permit to Use State Water necessary to use the water sought in the proposed contract request Potential Maximum Impact on the Highland Lakes and Other LCRA Water Rights To evaluate the impact on the LCRA system, another run of the modified Region K model was made with the City Lake water rights at a senior priority. This was accomplished in a similar fashion the to the "cutoff" assumptions included for upper basin water rights 10000000 was subtracted from the priority dates of the water rights, essentially making them senior to all other water rights. This was only applied to the 1914 and 1956 priority authorizations for COA 14-1655. The Park Lake authorizations (COA 14-1650) were left at their original priority date. The two water rights were also assumed to be operating independently one water right was not backed up by the other. Using these assumptions, the full 1,200 ac-ft/yr diversion is fully reliable, and City Lake is always full. Table 5 compares the components contributing to the Highland Lakes firm yield with the City's water rights operating as a system at the water rights original priority and 5 the revised priority scenario in which the City Lake diversion occurs under senior priority. As shown in the table, there is a small increase in the overall firm yield of the Highland Lakes System of 627 acre-feet per year. This increase is associated with additional supplies needed to backup the City of Austin's water rights. Table 5.

Most of the impact on yield occurs fori the Garwood water right, which is senior to the City's 1914 priority diversions from City Lake. Overall, the total LCRA system yield decreases by only 92 ac-ft/yr. 6 Table 6.

The Llano River originates from springs near Edwards, Sutton and Kimble Counties west of Junction, Texas, and flows east to the Colorado River. The City has two dams constructed on the River creating two lakes known as Robinson Lake and Llano Lake. The City holds two Water Rights Permits totaling 1,700 Ac-Ft/Yr. The raw water is removed from Llano Lake and treated by a3 MGD Water Treatment Plant placed into service in June 2000. The water is stored in one of four tanks. Clear Well = 500,000 gal. Tank #1 - 1,000,000 gal. Tank #2 - 300,000 gal. Elevated Tank #3 - 200,000 gal. Elevated Tank #4 - 200,000 gal. The service area is 4.5 square miles serving approximately 3,325 people. See Appendix A for service area map.

A monthly water loss report provides an effective tracking system of metered production, metered consumption, accounted water losses, and unaccountable water loss. The City maintained an average annual unaccountable rate of equal to or less than twelve percent (12%) of the produced water in the past five years. The Infrastructure Leakage Index (ILI) is the ratio of Current Annual Real Losses (CARL) to Unavoidable Annual Real Losses (UARL). This is developed as a unique value for every city and includes variables such as the distance from the curb stop to the meter boxes, the pressure in the system, and the number of service lines or connections per mile of water main. In 2023, the City's UARL were estimated to be approximately 50 thousand gallons per day. This is the theoretical lowest leakage currently possible with the existing infrastructure and service connection density. In 2023, the City had an ILI of approximately 1.54, which means that theoretically the leakage could be reduced by 54% before reaching the UARL. This puts the City in the efficient zone of ILIs within the United States, thus, the goals in this Plan are designed to maintain this level over an extended period. IMPLEMENTATION AND ENFORCEMENT (TWDB BMP 9) An Ordinance adopting the Water Conservation Plan SHALL authorize the City to implement, enforce, and administer the Ordinance. The City Council adopted the Ordinance on 6th day ofMay, 2024. CONTRACTS WITH OTHER FOLIICALSURDVISIONS The City will, as part of the contract to wholesale water to any other entity that will re-sell water, require that entity to adopt a water conservation and drought contingency plan in accordance to the LCRA's current water conservation and drought contingency plan rules or have a plan in effect currently adopted by the LCRA (Lower Colorado River Authority) or TCEQ (Texas Commission on Environmental Quality). In addition, as mentioned in previous section, Llano resides in the Region K planning group, and the City will provide the updated water conservation and drought contingency plan to the TWDB Region K contact. ANNUAL EVALUATION AND REVISIONS This Ordinance will be revised at least every five (5) years to provide updates and changes as appropriately required. Revisions were made in May 2024.

This WCDC Plan will be submitted to the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB), Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA) for review and approval. This WCDC Plan may be amended in the future as required by State law and/or by the City. WATER CONSERVATION PLAN GOALS The purpose of this water conservation plan is to comply with the requirements contained in the Texas Administrative Code Chapter 288, Water Conservation Plans, Guidelines and Requirements: Long-term reductions in overall water demands by 10 % per capita over the next ten years: Reductions in the magnitude of seasonal water demands by 5% per capita over the next five years; and Reductions in wastewater flow volumes by 1% per capita over the next five years. Given current and projected water and wastewater service requirements and issues; specific water conservation objectives are: To reduce waste and promote conservation habits of the residents of City of Llano. To reduce seasonal water demands such that future expansions of water treatment facilities can be deferred; and To continue to investigate the feasibility of reusing wastewater for suitable non- potable uses (e.g., irrigation of public green space and private landscaping).

The Llano River originates from springs near Edwards, Sutton and Kimble Counties west of Junction, Texas, and flows east to the Colorado River. The City has two dams constructed on the River creating two lakes known as Robinson Lake and Llano Lake. The City holds two Water Rights Permits totaling 1,700 Ac-Ft/Yr. The raw water is removed from Llano Lake and treated by a 3MGD Water Treatment Plant placed into service in June 2000. The water is stored in one of four tanks. Clear Well - 500,000 gal. Tank #1 = 1,000,000 gal. Tank #2 - 300,000 gal. Elevated Tank #3 - 200,000 gal. Elevated Tank #4 = 200,000 gal. The service area is 4.5 square miles serving approximately 3,325 people. See Appendix A for service area map. The estimated population growth for Llano is expected to be slow according to studies performed by various groups. For example, the Senate Bill 1 Planning Group estimates the population in Llano will not exceed 3,500 people until the year 2040. However, this region of the State of Texas is growing faster than had been expected and the City is planning for a faster growth rate. The City is using a population of 3500 people by the year 2023 for its projected growth.

A monthly water loss report provides an effective tracking system of metered production, metered consumption, accounted water losses, and unaccountable water loss. The City maintains an average annual unaccountable rate of equal to or less than eleven percent (11%) of the produced water. IMPLEMENTATION AND ENFORCEMENT An Ordinance adopting the Water Conservation Plan SHALL authorize the City to implement, enforce, and administer the Ordinance. The City Council adopted the Ordinance on 11th day ofJuly, 2022. CONTRACTS WITH OTHER POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS The City will, as part of the contract to wholesale water to any other entity that will re-sell water, require that entity to adopt a water conservation and drought contingency plan in accordance to the LCRA's current water conservation and drought contingency plan rules or have a plan in effect currently adopted by the LCRA (Lower Colorado River Authority) or TCEQ (Texas Commission on Environmental Quality). ANNUAL EVALUATION AND REVISIONS This Ordinance will be revised at least every five (5) years to provide updates and changes as appropriately required. Revisions were made in August 2000, March 2006, May 2009, May 2012, May 2014, July 2018, and May 2019 including system profile and goal updates, July 2022 including modification of Stage 3 and 4 DCP.

REMAINDER OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK 2022 Water Conservation and Drought Contingency Plan 13 DROUGHT CONTINGENCY PLAN INTRODUCTION It is necessary for the City of Llano to have in place a plan that will deal with emergency water demand situations. There are several scenarios where the public water supply could be adversely affected and the public's health jeopardized. Normal service can be interrupted by such uncontrollable circumstances as drought, hurricanes, tornadoes, vandalism, floods, contamination, or equipment failure. This Ordinance also has been developed to be initiated when the demands on the water system are significantly higher than normal conditions due to persistent drought periods, leading to higher-than-normal stress on the City's water system and supply. This Ordinance is in compliance with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality regulations and LCRA's Drought Management Plan rules as adopted April 2005. This Ordinance will provide the necessary indicators and control measures to temporarily abate water demand in emergency situations. These provisions are designed to be in place only as long as an emergency situation exists. To be effective the plan must have the following elements: Trigger conditions that will signal the existence of an emergency situation; Emergency control measures; Methods to relay information and notify the public; Enforcement procedures; Method of implementation of plan; and Procedure for plan termination notification. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The City's water treatment facilities design capacity is rated at 2,083 gallons per minute (gpm) or 3.0 million gallons per day (MGD). The water treatment facility's current automated operation capacity is 1,200 gallons per minute (gpm) or 1.728 million gallons per day (MGD). Total water storage capacity of the City is 2.2 million gallons, of which 0.400 million gallons are considered elevated storage. In 2018, average daily water demand for the City was 0.623 MGD. The peak daily water demand for 2018 was 1.168 MGD. The distribution capacity is 3,400 gpm and provides potable water to eight pressure zones within the City. In high pressure areas of the distribution system greater than 110 psi, pressure reducer valves have been installed. Pressure reducers can be installed on homes where service pressure is greater than 80 psi by a licensed plumber.

Section VIII: Criteria for Initiation, Response and Termination of Drought Response States The flow of the Llano River is greatly dependent on base flow from springs. During periods of low base flow, the Llano River is capable of great fluctuations, even on a daily basis. Setting and implementing drought trigger levels with such fluctuation can be difficult and confusing to all parties involved. The trigger levels established in this Ordinance are based on the condition that the Llano River is the only source of supply for the City of Llano. Should an additional backup source become established to supplement the Llano River, the DCP and trigger levels may need to be reviewed and revised. The triggering criteria described below are based on the flow of water in the Llano River, water consumption rates, and water pressure within the system. The City ofLlano's Water Conservation and Drought Contingency Plan is segmented into 4 stages. As part oft the City of Llano's Water Conservation Plan, it is recommended that all customers voluntarily conserve water year-round by limiting non-essential water use to 2 times per week. It is suggested to maintain the watering schedule that is set forth in the Drought Contingency Plan. Stage 1 Moderate Water Shortage Conditions is a voluntary conservation plan to limit 2022 Water Conservation and Drought Contingency Plan 17 watering to TWICE per WEEK and install the flashboards. Stage 2 System Capacity Limitations implements MANDATORY water conservations measures to TWICE per WEEK, when Stage 1 Goal cannot be met. Stages 3 and 4, Severe to Critical Water Shortage Conditions, are mandatory restrictions with triggers based on ZERO flow over City Dam and Robinson Park Lake drained, respectively; as well as, any one or combination of high consumption rates, low water pressure in the system, and/or any situation deemed an emergency by the Mayor or City Manager. The City Manager, or his/her designee, SHALL monitor water supply and/or demand conditions on a daily basis and, in accordance with the triggering criteria set forth in Section VIII of this Ordinance, SHALL determine that a moderate, severe, or critical emergency or water shortage condition exists and SHALL implement the following procedures: REMAINDER OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK 2022 Water Conservation and Drought Contingency Plan 18 STAGE 1 TRIGGERS - MODERATE WATER SHORTAGE CONDITIONS Requirements for initiation: Customers SHALL be requested to voluntarily conserve water and adhere to the prescribed restrictions on non-essential water use, defined in Section VII = Definitions of this Ordinance. The City of Llano SHALL install boards on City Dam annually, after March 1 when the average daily flows fall below 80 cfs. However, the Mayor or City Manager may implement Stage 1 of the Ordinance at any time if conditions prior to March 1st warrant concerns for the City ofLlano water supply.

REMAINDER OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK 2022 Water Conservation and Drought Contingency Plan 22 STAGE 4 TRIGGERS = CRITICAL WATER SHORTAGE The effects of low flow on the biological and chemical processes of the Llano River have an impact on the water needs of the citizens of Llano. While water restrictions are certainly a burden to citizens, they are necessary to limit additional strain on the Llano River and the associated treatment facilities. As the flow of the Llano River decreases to very low levels, the temperature of the water increases and the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water decreases. Lower levels of dissolved oxygen result in increased costs associated with treatment of higher levels of nitrates and resulting changes in water taste. These higher temperatures and reduced dissolved oxygen can also have a significant negative impact on the aquatic habitat ofthe River. At the point which water can no longer be pumped from Robinson Park Lake and City Lake is full, there is an estimated 459 ac-ft of storage with the flashboards installed. With water elevation at the top of the boards to depth of the water intake, the capacity correlates to approximately 153 days of water remaining in City Lake. These figures are based off the 2012 Halff Report. It is recommended that the City obtain the resources to perform a bathometric survey to determine the quantity of water available. This is due to the ever- changing conditions oft the river. Requirements for initiation: Customers SHALL be required to comply with the requirements and restrictions on non- essential water uses for Stage 4 oft this Ordinance when: 1. Water can NO longer be pumped from Robinson Park Lake into City Lake. 2. Poor raw water quality requiring less pumpage to maintain treatability; or 3. Water system fails from acts of God or man; or 4. Any mechanical failure of pumping equipment which will require more than twelve (12) hours to repair which causes unprecedented loss of capability to provide water service. 5. The Goal for Stage 3 cannot be met under Stage 3 Restriction. Requirements for termination: The Mayor or City Manager SHALL rescind Stage 4 of this Ordinance when both lakes are at full capacity. Upon termination of Stage 4, Stage 3 becomes operative. 2022 Water Conservation and Drought Contingency Plan 23 STAGE 4 RESPONSE-CRITICAL WATER SHORTAGE Goal: Limit the daily pumpage at the water treatment plant to 0.4 million gallons per day. Meeting: The Mayor SHALL schedule weekly EMERGENCY meetings with the City Council to make any modifications to this plan. An item for "Discussion and Possible Action of submitted Variances" SHALL be placed on all City Council Meeting Agendas for the weekly EMERGENCY meetings with the City Council as required in this stage (see Section XI for variances).
