B. Landfill Public Disposal Facility (PDF) Temporary Closure – The Public Disposal Facility (PDF), located at the City of Denton Landfill, will be closed beginning Wednesday, Feb. 21 and will reopen on Saturday, Feb. 24, to allow crews to complete
building repairs and maintenance. All vehicular traffic will be diverted to the landfill’s
“working face” where waste is currently offloaded and compacted. Staff contact: Randall Morris, Solid Waste & Recycling
C. Airport Town Hall – The Denton Enterprise Airport will host its first Airport Town
Hall on Thursday, March 7 at 3 p.m. in the Airport Terminal building. This event is
designed to be an opportunity for Airport pilots, tenants, and businesses to receive updates and ask questions. Representatives from the air traffic control tower and Shelter, the Airport’s fixed base operator, will be in attendance to provide updates and answer questions. Interested individuals are asked to register online before attending.
Staff contact: Ryan Adams, Denton Enterprise Airport
D. Scheduled Airport Runway Closures – As part of the TxDOT-managed 2024 Runway Reconstruction Project, the Denton Enterprise Airport will implement the first runway closures associated with the project. The main (east) airport runway will be closed to
traffic beginning Monday, April 1, and reopen on April 3 with a shortened distance that
will be in effect until the end of the project. The secondary (west) runway will be closed on the evening of April 2 and will reopen on April 3 with no changes to its distance. The 2024 Runway Reconstruction Project will be a full reconstruction of the main
runway at Denton Enterprise Airport. The project will correct significant subgrade and
line-of-sight issues with a full-depth repair of approximately 1,200 feet of runway pavement. The project will also include reconstruction of several taxiway stubs, construction of a new taxiway, and installation of LED runway lights. The bulk of construction is expected to begin July 2024 and will result in a full closure of the main
runway for approximately 45 days.
Staff worked diligently with the project engineer, TxDOT, contractor, and air traffic control personnel to ensure that interruptions to airport operations are minimized as much as possible during these closures. Staff will educate Airport users regarding the
impacts of this project on an ongoing basis including the use of email, social media,
and town hall meetings. Staff contact: Ryan Adams, Denton Enterprise Airport E. North Lakes Park Disc Golf – The Parks and Recreation Department conducted routine maintenance at the disc golf courses in North Lakes Park over the past week to remove
dead limbs and trees. In addition, volunteers who support the disc golf course will be
conducting a general park cleanup beginning Saturday, Feb. 17 to improve the
2
beautification and playability of the park and disc golf courses. Staff contact: Russell Koch, Parks and Recreation
F. Clear Creek Bird Blind – The Parks and Recreation Department recently designed and built a permanent Bird Blind at Clear Creek Natural Heritage Center (3310 Collins Rd.) located at the end of the Yucca Trail, north of the building at the trail terminus. Located next to an existing feeding station, it offers bird-watchers, nature-lovers, and
researchers the opportunity to observe birds and other flora and fauna without
disturbing or scaring them away. Staff also plan to use the bird blind to educate the public about the ecology at Clear Creek. Staff contact: Russell Koch, Parks and Recreation

Responses to Council Member Requests for Information
A. Vandalism in the Parks System – During a City Council Work Session meeting on Feb.
6, Mayor Hudspeth asked staff to provide information regarding vandalism within the parks system. Over the course of the calendar year of 2023, staff estimates approximately 300 - 325 separate incidents of vandalism. This estimate is aggregated from a combination of notifications and observations from Engage Denton, emails, phone calls, park inspections, playground inspections, and daily area checks from field
staff. The term "vandalism" encompasses graffiti, excessive litter, theft, arson, and general destruction of property. This estimate does not include vandalism to municipal buildings or illegal dumping incidents. The most common type of vandalism found in our park system is graffiti and damage
to restrooms. The frequency of vandalism in parks varies depending on location, time of year, types of amenities and park size. Vandalism can also include unauthorized construction, vegetation removal, and other modifications to the park without proper authorization. Staff attempt to mitigate vandalism by partnering with the Police Department to increase law enforcement patrols when possible, adding and/or adjusting
security cameras near high-incident areas, coordinating with Community Services to provide outreach services, and adhering to Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) standards and guidelines to increase visibility safety throughout our parks. Staff contact: Gary Packan, Parks and Recreation
B. Disabled Senior Utilities – On Feb. 13, Council Member Meltzer forwarded a resident’s concern regarding the discontinuation of Solid Waste services. Staff followed up with
4
the resident to determine the cause of the issue and worked with them to resolve their concerns. Staff contact: Christa Foster, Customer Service

1. Background
Privet (Ligustrum species) are a non-native, invasive thicket forming shrub causing notable reduction of
ecological quality and recreational use to open spaces and natural habitats across the region, especially in
forested areas and near waterways. Once established the shrub quickly overtakes the space, crowding out
native understory vegetation and threatening the long-term health and recruitment of native vegetation by
shading out most saplings and understory. Mature plants result in a dense monoculture with reduced
diversity of pollinators and wildlife and a thicket that blocks visibility and limits the use of the area.
Privet removal is necessary to improve the health of the natural area and increase the use and enjoyment
of public land. This SOP outlines the procedures for targeted removal that promotes long-term solutions
to eliminate this plant and restore the characteristics and functions of the open space and habitat.
There are many variables influencing the success of removing invasive plants and restoring land to
similar native conditions. This SOP outlines a procedure for professional input, allowing for best-practice
decisions to be made during the process for each specific and unique site.
2. Goal and Scope
The goal is to align with the Parks, Recreation and Trails System Master Plan and to achieve privet
eradication on property owned by PARD. It is important to acknowledge progress toward this goal is a
continuous process as existing privet on other properties will continue to re-invade Parks property.
The scope of this SOP includes pre-activity inspections and reports, identifying when it is appropriate to
have a site-specific plan appropriate for the area with targeted removal strategies, providing public
education and involvement regarding the activity, developing a site-specific restoration plan appropriate
for the area, performing follow-up inspections and performing follow up activities.
3. Applicability Criteria
This SOP is specific to the removal and restoration of privet invasion in natural open spaces and
confirmed habitats on City of Denton property owned by Parks and Recreation Department (PARD).
Incidental plant removal during routine maintenance of developed or regularly maintained Parks
property does not require guidance from this SOP.The following are definitions applicable to this
SOP.
x Environmentally Sensitive Areas (ESAs). Potential ESAs are shown on the city’s Interactive GIS
Map. The actual presence, location and extent of the ESA can only be confirmed through an ESA
Field Assessment. Parks property will follow procedures outlined in the ESA Primer to make a
final determination and updated the Official ESA Map.

x Small area. A small area is defined as a planned privet removal and restoration activity of less
than 1 acre, is not located within an ESA, and has insignificant environmental or wildlife
concerns as documented through the activity-initiation procedures in Section 6.
x Planned privet removal activity. Planned privet removal and restoration activities include new
park land improvement activity, a budgeted activity for maintenance to improve an existing park
land previously identified to be in decline, and budgeted maintenance for areas where trash and
debris removal is necessary for public safety.
x Emergency privet removal activity. Emergency privet removal and restoration activities are
performed in situations where privet is aggravating hazardous environmental situations such as
fire or flooding, or when privet is aggravating public safety concerns, such as visibility.
x Public safety concerns. Areas where public safety concerns exist are identified through
collaboration with Public Safety Officers and Public Safety committees.

A. PARD initiates a privet removal and restoration project by collecting and preparing the
following by completing Attachment A, initial information checklist:
1) Identify if this is a planned activity or an emergency activity.
2) Identify if the planned activity is a small area as defined in Section 3
3) Compile any site-specific complaints, police reports, and other external records of
concerns regarding the area.
4) Prepare a summary of the initial site inspection, to include:
a) a description of the site concerns,
b) evidence of wildlife through staff observations, public reports, and other documents
available for staff review,
c) comprehensive site photos that show:
(1) wide-angles from multiple directions showing the extent of the privet removal
area
(2) photos of site features, such as ESAs, areas of native species, major topographic
changes, tree species and density, evidence of wildlife, and other important
features that should be documented, and
d) a map of the area of concern will include:
(1) the extent of the PARD property,
(2) the extent of the area of concern and/or extent of the proposed privet removal and
restoration,
(3) any water bodies, or other important environmental features at or near the area of
concern and/or extent of proposed activity.
B. ESS will review the initial information provided by PARD and perform an environmental
investigation. ESS will supplement the initial PARD information with:
1) A site assessment will document:
a) A brief survey of vegetative species, summary of tree size(s), and density.
b) the extent and density of privet.
c) a review, and if needed, expansion of wildlife findings, including any nesting
migratory birds or rookeries. When necessary, ESS will engage the Texas Parks and
Wildlife Department for consultation on wildlife findings.

7. Public Education and Engagement Plans
Privet removal should always be preceded with public education. PARD will determine the scope of an
engagement plan.
Public education and engagement may include:
x creating a webpage dedicated to privet removal and tracking projects,
x producing a Friday report,
x posting signage onsite that provides basic information and directs the public to the webpage,
x creating social media,
x informing and engaging appropriate agencies ahead of outreach,
x hosting neighborhood meetings, when warranted.
PARD with ESS assistance will provide a public education and engagement plan that:
x Informs the public of the need to address this invasive plant, including providing information on
the long-term threat to habitat and trees within the park and that privet has far-reaching dispersal
properties that threatens adjacent natural spaces.
x Informs the public of the specific project, including timing, extent, expected short-term
conditions and expected long-term conditions of the privet removal area.
8. Privet Removal Procedures
A. Timing. Research suggests the more effective time to remove privet is in the fall. To
maximize efforts, PARD will prioritize initial removal activities during late fall months and
continue to evaluate the situation. When removing privet across large areas it may be more
effective to consider phasing the area in sections. When prioritizing phasing, it is more
important to try to address mature plants or re-growth plants that have started
flowering/producing berries to reduce future distribution.
B. Equipment.
1) Small equipment may be used to remove privet when environmental conditions permit
the use. When conditions cannot be met, privet shrubs will be removed by hand.
Conditions that may inhibit the use of small equipment include:
a)Any stand of trees over 6” DBH and the equipment could negatively impact
beneficial tree canopy.
b) Areas where native vegetation dominates and few privet have invaded the space.
c) Areas with major topographic changes, making safe equipment mobility difficult.
d) The equipment may not be operated within two feet of the trunk of a tree 6” or
greater DBH. Privet branches located within the 2-foot boundary must be hand-cut.
2) Small equipment may include a skid steer with a mulcher. Other parameters include:

a) The skid steer must have tracks.
b) A drum mulcher is preferred.
c) Mats are required when operating in wetland areas.
3) Chaining may be appropriate when the area is greater than 40 acres and tree density (6”
or greater DBH) is less than 10% of the area.
C. Privet disposal from initial removal. Larger material resulting from the activity will be
managed to allow restoration to occur. Depending on resulting volume, the material could be
shredded to reduce volume or collected to transport to a compost facility.
D. Herbicide use. Whether mechanically cut or hand-cut, all privet cut stumps have a high
probability of recovery and must be treated to reduce re-growth.
1) An herbicide listed in the IPM will be selected for targeted cut stump treatment and
seedling treatment. All cut stump treatment and seedling treatment activities will follow
best-practices as defined by the herbicide manufacturer.
2) To be effective cut-stump treatment must be performed
a) within 30 seconds of the original cut, or
b) within 30 seconds of a new cut made after the original removal activity.
E. Seedling removal. Seedlings should be expected and seeding removal will occur within one
year of the initial privet removal activity.
1) Hand pulling will be prioritized, when feasible.
2) When hand pulling is not feasible, an herbicide listed in the IPM will be applied with a
hand wand by a trained applicator. Precautions will be taken to target the privet seedling
and avoid over-spraying.
F. Volunteer activities. When small equipment use is not available, volunteers may be employed
to hand-cut privet stems. Volunteers will be provided training to identify privet and common
environmental hazards, provided safety training, and supervised by staff who meet
prerequisites listed in Section 5.
G. Goats and other alternative privet reduction and removal tools.
1) Goats do not remove the plant but are useful for reducing the volume of privet. Goats
may support hand-removal activities and can be deployed as a pre-removal measure.
2) Other privet reduction and removal tools and procedures may be evaluated for efficacy,
cost-effectiveness and results in improved privet reduction or removal and least impacts
to the natural environment.
9. Emergency Activity Procedures
Emergency situations may not permit for all activity-initiation information gathering. In these situations,
the departments will document as much information as possible before, during and after the privet
removal activity. In these situations,

A. Privet removal activity should be performed by personnel who meet the prerequisites listed
above.
B. PARD must inform ESS of the emergency privet removal activity within three business days
of the activity and prepare as much of the information listed Section 6 as possible.
C. Post-privet removal during emergency situations must be followed with restoration activity.
ESS will follow up after the emergency removal activity with a site inspection. A restoration
activity plan will be prepared following the restoration plan procedures listed below.
10. Small Area Activity Procedures
Small, planned activities, as defined in the Applicability section above, will follow a standard removal
and restoration plan.
A. Activity-initiation information will be gathered following Section 3.
B. A public informational plan will be prepared and executed following Section 7.
C. PARD will give ESS notice of the privet removal activity no later than 3 business days prior
to commencing.
D. Privet may be removed using small equipment following equipment removal procedures
provided in Section 8.
E. ESS will inspect the area within 3 business days upon completion of the privet removal
activity.
11. Site-Specific Privet Removal Plans
Site-specific privet removal plans will be developed for sites that do not meet the criteria of a small area
or an emergency activity. The site-specific removal plan will facilitate least impacts to ESAs, address
other environmental or topographical constraints, or other concerns. A site-specific privet removal plan
may include:
x A comprehensive list of privet removal procedures to be deployed. Detailed additions or
deviations from the procedures outlined in Section 8 that facilitate least impacts may be added to
the site-specific plan.
x A map identifying the location where small equipment removal procedures and where hand
removal procedures will be deployed.
x Timing of privet removal for most effective removal and reduced wildlife impacts, such as
migratory bird nesting or rookeries.
12. Post- Initial Removal Procedures and Restoration Plans
A. Because seedlings are expected to emerge, seedling eradication will be scheduled no later
than 1 year after the initial post-removal activity. PARD will notify ESS at least 3 business

days prior to seedling eradication. ESS will inspect the site and document seedling densities
prior to seedling eradication activities. PARD will not commence seedling eradication until
the received confirmation from ESS the seedling density review is complete. ESS will then
re-inspect the site one month after seedling eradication activities to evaluate the success of
the activity.
B. When warranted, a temporary ground cover will be installed post- initial removal.
Circumstances that may warrant temporary ground cover include are large topographical
changes that may lead to erosion and soil loss or public concerns. Appropriate temporary
ground cover includes green sprangletop, Canadian wild rye, cereal rye, winter wheat, oats,
or side oats grama.
C. Final restoration plans should start after seedling eradication activities. Depending on the
seedling eradication schedule, final restoration may be one to two years after the initial privet
removal activity. Public education and continued education will be necessary for clarity.
D. Except for emergency activity, final restoration revegetation plantings will be selected prior
to commencing privet removal activity.
E. Final restoration plant selection should include a variety of plants to encourage a healthy re-
establishment of natural conditions and establish park conditions appropriate for the park use.
1) Native plants will be prioritized in natural areas.
2) Native grasses and forbs appropriate for the environmental conditions they will be placed
should be selected to establish a ground cover.
3) Shrubs and vines may be interspersed within the space to encourage reestablishment of
the habitat and provide varied competition to reduce future privet re-establishment.
4) ESS will perform an annual inspection of the final restoration plantings for three years
from the date of final restoration planting. Inspections will result in a summary of site
conditions, planting conditions, and suggestions for follow-up activities as needed.
5) Final restoration will be attained when:
a) privet in the area has been reduced by 80%,
b) there is 70% survival rate of final restoration plantings, and
c) 70% uniform perennial vegetative cover.

February 16, 2024 Report No. 2024-007
INFORMAL STAFF REPORT
TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT: Compliance efforts for EPA’s Lead and Copper Rule Revisions and Improvements
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently updated the Lead and Copper
Rule (LCR) with a package of amendments referred to as the Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR). An additional update, referred to as the Lead and Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI), is currently moving through the rulemaking process at EPA. Staff secured resources through the Fiscal Year 2024 Capital Improvement Plan and a contract with HDR, Inc. to ensure compliance
with the new regulations.
DISCUSSION:
The LCR was put in place in 1991 to formalize regulations regarding the use of lead and copper
in public drinking water systems. The LCRR was passed on December 16, 2021, to include new
standards for lead sampling procedures, proactive identification and removal of lead piping, and
public outreach and education, with most included rules becoming effective October 16, 2024. An
additional update to the LCR, the LCRI, is moving through the rulemaking process. Following
review of public comments received by EPA, the LCRI is anticipated to be effective in October
2024. Some proposed changes within the LCRI are significant when compared to the LCRR, and
with the potential for increased regulations by October 2024, many utilities are considering
increased response efforts in line with the proposed changes. The table below summarizes key
dates in the development of the LCR and the availability of resources to staff.
Lead and Copper Rule (LCR) June 7, 1991
Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR) December 16, 2021
HDR, Inc. Services Secured November 1, 2022
HDR, Inc. Contract Amendment February 20, 2024 (pending approval)
Lead and Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI) Expected prior to October 16, 2024
LCRR Compliance Date October 16, 2024
LCRI Compliance Date October 16, 2027 (pending a final rule)
Initial LCR requirements heavily restricted new installation of lead piping within drinking water
systems and set up lead and copper monitoring requirements, which have helped utilities mitigate
the risks involved with lead piping. While the health impacts of lead consumption can be
significant, well-established water treatment practices are shown to limit water line corrosion and
greatly reduce the ability of lead to leach into drinking water. Sampling programs have tested the
effectiveness of Denton’s corrosion control processes, and lead levels have remained significantly
below minimums established under any current or proposed versions of the LCR. Staff is confident
that our water customers will continue to have a near-zero risk of lead exposure from Denton’s
water supply.
38
February 16, 2024 Report No. 2024-007
In addition to LCR’s requirements, the LCRR requires the development of a Service Line
Inventory and may require the removal and replacement of existing lead service lines. The LCRR
contains standards which would require proactive replacement of lead service lines if lead
sampling results in a 90th percentile of the data value of 0.010 milligrams per liter (mg/L) or
higher. The latest draft of the LCRI would require service line replacement regardless of sampling
results. Staff is currently compiling an inventory of suspected and confirmed lead service lines.
Where a clear record of service line material is not available, Staff inspects the portion of the pipe
visible within the meter enclosure and hydro-excavates a limited area around the meter as needed.
The service line inventory will be completed prior to the LCRR effective date of October 16, 2024
and will inform any subsequent service line replacement program under the LCRR and LCRI.
Staff is working with HDR, Inc. to develop a Replacement Roadmap to account for all service
lines which may require replacement under the LCRR, with consideration of expected upcoming
LCRI requirements, financial impact to the Department, and any effects on customers. Currently,
the most aggressive option follows the latest draft of the LCRI – replacement of all required service
lines (Lead, Galvanized Requiring Replacement, and any other lines treated as Lead) within 10
years. To meet this target, the utility has budgeted $2 Million per year based on current inventory
estimates and plans to coordinate carefully with Streets and Capital Projects during service line
replacement planning. Service line replacements under the LCRR and LCRI include the portion of
the service line connecting the water main to the water meter, which the City owns, as well as the
portion of the service line from the water meter to the building, which the property owner or
customer owns. While lead service lines behind the meter are not common, staff is working with
HDR, Inc. to design a program to assist customers with replacing piping on their property, where
required based on the LCRR and anticipated sections of the LCRI.
Lead sampling has been a part of Denton’s standard practices for many years; however, the LCRR
restructures many aspects of lead sampling programs. These changes include increased sampling
frequency, additional sample sites, and strict monitoring of schools and daycares constructed
before 2014. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has instituted additional
monitoring programs in preparation for the implementation of the LCRR. Staff is complying by
participating in an early adoption program that will demonstrate the effectiveness of existing
corrosion control practices. When complete, the utility is expected to receive flexibility in certain
sampling requirements.
The LCRR provides public outreach requirements for most included components, ensuring
transparency regarding lead exposure risks and mitigation efforts. For example, the service line
inventory is to be made publicly accessible and available online, annual notices are to be sent to
all customers whose service lines may include lead, and annual Consumer Confidence Reports
must include updated health effects language relating to lead and copper exposure. Related
outreach procedures will allow the utility to partner with customers on targeted mitigation efforts,
where identified, using the LCRR and LCRI framework. Staff identified additional CIP funds to

February 16, 2024 Report No. 2024-007
support the public outreach requirement and secure the assistance of HDR, Inc. HDR will help
staff develop communications materials to comply with the new regulations and help customers
understand the utility’s compliance efforts. Key deliverables of this contract include a public-
facing website, a social media outreach plan, educational materials for schools, a public-facing
interactive service line inventory map, form letters for customer-specific communications, and
cohesive branding for all LCR-related publications. While many of these communication materials
will be published or dispatched immediately, others will be scheduled for future release or will be
prepared for response to specific triggering events.
Compliance with the LCRR and LCRI requires numerous coordination points, including
departments across the organization and external stakeholders. Water Utilities is leading these
efforts in close partnership with Environmental Services & Sustainability. Marketing &
Communications and Technology Services are assisting with the creation of communication and
website materials, Budget is providing guidance on securing proper financial resources, and Streets
and Capital Projects will be consulted to coordinate service line replacements in tandem with other
roadway construction projects. HDR, Inc. is providing contractual support from a planning
standpoint and will assist with outreach and communications. In addition to Denton’s compliance
efforts, many municipalities and utilities across the region, the state, and the country have
collaborated to discuss various strategies as we all navigate the new legal landscape introduced by
these rules.
CONCLUSION:
Staff discussed the needed funding for LCRR and LCRI compliance with City Council during the
2024 budget process. As a result of these discussions Council approved 10 million dollars in the
5-year capitol plan for LCRR and LCRI compliance. Staff will continue efforts to ensure
compliance with the LCRR and will closely monitor development of the LCRI and all
requirements therein. Staff will continue to provide proactive communication to City Council and
the public as plans come together.
