Most Popular. Attorneys for TRWD argue that because the district has jurisdiction over water quality in the Clear Fork, they qualify as an "affected person" under Texas law. But environmental commissioners aren't so sure. Behind the scenes, water district officials say they're in talks with Fort Worth to resolve the issue before reaching the contested case hearing stage, according to Rachel Ickert, TRWD's chief water resources officer.

Proposals from the water district have included asking Fort Worth to use the facility's water for irrigation, therefore eliminating the need to discharge it into Mary's Creek, or to let TRWD pay for pipelines to transfer the majority of the wastewater effluent to another lake so it can be more diluted and provide water supply for the region, according to Woody Frossard, the district's environmental director. Since the TCEQ hosted a public meeting about the wastewater treatment facility last October, discussions between the water district and Fort Worth are "much further along" but no agreement has been reached, Ickert said.

Although Fort Worth is willing to discuss discharging treated wastewater into other locations along the Trinity, the city is still pursuing its primary location at Mary's Creek, Harder said. Fort Worth believes in the plant's location and the city's own modeling showing that the discharge of treated sewage is protective of water quality, he added.
