BACKGROUND
Lavon Lake is the original source of water supply for North Texas Municipal Water District and the Wylie Water Treatment Plant (WTP) complex. Three raw water pump stations draw from Lavon Lake and serve the Wylie WTP complex. Raw Water Pump Station (RWPS) Nos. 1 & 2 have a combined capacity of 285 million gallons per day (MGD) and RWPS No. 3 has a capacity of 537 MGD. These three pump stations access lake levels between 461 to 467 feet. At these levels, the current pump stations do not optimize NTMWD's full water right in Lavon La...
