2014 Annual Report to Commissioners' Court
Regional Planning:
• Brazos G Regional Water Planning Group has been meeting almost monthly throughout 2014. Have
been monitoring their meetings closely and providing input as needed.
• GMA -12 began meeting this past spring. The five Districts involved are:
Brazos Valley GCD (Brazos, Robertson)
- Mid -East Texas GCD (Madison, Leon, Freestone)
- Post Oak Savannah GCD (Burleson, Milam)
- Fayette County GCD
- Lost Pines GCD (Lee, Bastrop)
Have just this past week seen the simulated model runs showing current and anticipated pumping in
each of the districts and the effect of that pumping on the current desired future conditions within
the districts. This would include the Vista Ridge project sending 50,000 acre feet /year (35,000
Simsboro, 15,000 Carrizo) along the 1 -35 corridor to San Antonio. The pumping originates in western
Burleson County near the Lee /Burleson county line.
This process will continue throughout 2015 with public hearings once the District DFC's are set for
each aquifer. This will include a DFC for the Brazos River Alluvium this planning cycle.
The final product is due to TWDB no later than May, 2016.
Monitoring Well Network:
164 wells in the network with about 70% measured monthly.
Water level measurements are the basis upon which the aquifers are managed. The levels are the DFC.
For instance, the current DFC for the Simsboro aquifer is 270'. This simply means that the District desires
the hydraulic head (static level) not be more than an average of 270' lower in 2060 than it was in 2000.
This measurement is achieved by averaging well measurements, up and down dip, and comparing that
to 2060. In May, 2014, the District measurementwas at 39', well above our DFC.
Fees:
• Fees will remain the same for all users except:
- Public supply entities will pay $0.0325/1000 gals. on the first 100,000,000 gallons produced; Q
$0.0425/1000 gallons produced thereafter.
Grant Program:
Newly implemented in 2014.
Anyone can apply for grant funds with a project that will demonstrably produce water conservation.
- Brazos Valley Lawn Irrigation Network set to roll out in February, 2015. Involves a weather
station /wireless rain gauge network that covers approximately 186 square miles in Brazos County -
Entities involved include College Station, Bryan, Wellborn SLID, and Wickson Creek SOD.
- $91,000 granted including money to establish a website /webmaster program to alert, via email
push, homeowners as to the amount of water for lawn irrigation weekly throughout the year. This is
also viewable over the internet.
- KBTX Conservation Tip Campaign will begin in mid -March to promote water conservation and
promote the Irrigation Network. $21,000 has dedicated to this effort.
Vol. 213 Pg. a2y 6
Rules;:--
All wells, excluding domestic /livestock use, must now be permitted. This included all wells used for
hydraulic fracturing supply. Frac wells are now subject to production reduction if and when that occurs.
One -year renewable permits for up to 150 acre feet /year can be issued by the General Manager once all
permitting requirements are met.
The Board has been working several months using Rules Workshops and a committee meeting to
formulate a framework for pumping reduction. This will take several more months and is being done
now in order that all permit holders know what to expect when, and if, a reduction is necessary.
Well Plugging;
• A well plugging protocol was adopted by the Board in August that mirrors the plugging rules established
by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation except for:
- Brazos River Alluvium wells must be plugged under a more stringent protocol to avoid
contamination of the aquifer.
• A more robust well plugging program was put in place to incentivize the plugging of abandoned or
deteriorated water wells. The District now pays 75% of the cost of plugging up to a $1000
reimbursement.
Education:
• Educational program on water salinity for Brazos, Robertson, and Burleson county farmers January 8,
2014.
• Taught � 4", 5`h, and 7'h grade students about water conservation, protection of the aquifers, how
to avoid contamination, and the water cycle during 2014. 2,850 of the students were taught in individual
classroom settings.
• Distributed approximately 2,500 "Major Rivers" water curriculum packets for use in the 4`h and 5`h grade
classrooms.
• This included every ISD in Robertson County.
• Conducted a "Water Field Day" at the Franklin Ranch Community Park on October 25" solely for all
Robertson County 5`h grade students. 250 students attended.
State Audit:
The District was 1 of 12 randomly chosen from a list of 100 GCD's to undergo an audit by the State
Auditor's Office. BVGCD was the only district to achieve a 100% approval on both the financial and
management objectives portions of the audit.
Management Plan Update:
• The Management Plan is currently undergoing the required 5 -year update /adoption required under
Chapter 36 of the Texas Water Code. A public hearing for comment was held July 17, 2014. Final
adoption of the revised plan is scheduled for the January 15, 2015 Regular Board Meeting. Public
comment will be taken.

Description and Scope of Project
This Capital Improvement Project will result in the acquisition of a Records Management System (RMS) for our Law Enforcement agencies.
The RMS will be integrated with the Tiburon Computer Aided Dispatch System used by the Brazos County Emergency Communications
District (911). The project will also integrate the RMS with new justice software to be acquired by Brazos County. The City of Bryan will assist
in the acquisition of this software and will host the system when it is complete. We will leverage an existing multi - agency license owned by the
City of Bryan to get the City onto the same RMS. This will permit the two enties (six agencies) to share data. In addition, the City of Bryan
Police Department will be able to electronically push arrest records to Brazos County for jail bookings for the first time. Implementation is
expected to begin — February, 2015 and be completed — September 2015.
Purpose and Need Including Operating Efficiencies and Savings
The purpose of this project is to acquire a Records Management System for managing the day -to -day operational data used by our Law
Enforcement. This data includes cases, contact histories, warrants status, arrests, warrants, suspect details, vehicle and other property data,
interviews, reports, crime scene photos, etc.
History and Current Status
For the last twelve years the Brazos County Constables and Sheriffs Office's have used TSG AbleTerm for managing their data. Brazos
County will discontinue use of this rudimentary RMS when we convert to new justice software. The City of Bryan has used an RMS called
Total Command for the last decade. The two entities have not been sharing data in their respective RMS's.

aware in which the PHI is used or disclosed for a purpose that is
not otherwise provided for in this Agreement or for a purpose not
expressly permitted by the HIPAA Rules; and
(d) ensure that all disclosures of PHI are subject to the principle of
"minimum necessary use and disclosure," i.e., only PHI that is the
minimum necessary to accomplish the intended purpose of the use,
disclosure, or request may be disclosed.

failures or omissions of the Agent in providing the services as if they were
Business Associate's own acts, failures or omissions, to the extent
permitted by law. Business Associate further expressly warrants that its
Agents will be specifically advised of, and will comply in all respects with,
the terms of this Agreement.

than one Covered Entity, Business Associate is permitted to use and
disclose PHI, but only in order to analyze data for permitted health care
operations, and only to the extent that such use is permitted under the
HIPAA Rules or the issuing court's orders.

Information is permitted, but only if (i) the precise use is disclosed to
Covered Entity and permitted by Covered Entity in its sole discretion and

implementation specifications for de- identification under 45 CFR
§164.514(a) and (b).

limitations of any Notice of Privacy Practices ( "Notice) published by the
Covered Entity of which it has knowledge. Covered Entity shall provide to
