For approval of a transfer of utility assets pursuant
to the Utility Transfers Act, Va. Code § 56-88 et seq.
REQUEST FOR HEARING
OF THE
LAKE CAROLINE PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOCIATION, INC.
The Lake Caroline Property Owners Association, Inc. ("Association!), by counsel,
pursuant to ordering paragraph 6 of the Coninfission's June 3, 2013 Order for Notice and
Comment, requests an evidentiary hearing relating to the May 6, 2013 Joint Petition filed by
Aqua Virginia, Inc. ("Aqua!) and Caroline Water Company, Inc. d/b/a Ladysmith Water
Company ("Caroline Water") (collectively,"Petitioners').
1.
Introduction and Backeroun
The Petitioners have requested, under the Utility Transfers Act, § 56-88 el seq. of the
Code of Virginia, approval of a sale by Caroline Water to Aqua of utility assets located in
Caroline County, Virginia. In addition, the Petitioners have requested approval to trander
Caroline Water's Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity to furnish public utility
service in Caroline Water's certificated service territory from Caroline Water to Aqua, pursuant
to § 56-265 .3 D of the Code of Virginia, and any other necessary authority to serve the Lake
Caroline community.
Under the Utility Transfers Act, the Petitioners have the burden of proving that their
proposed transaction will not impair or jeopardize "adequate service to the public at just and
reasonable rates."' Under the Utility Facilities Act~ the Petitioners have the burden of proving
that the proposed transaction is in the public interest, and the Commission may authorize the
tranuction subject to conditions that will promote the public interest. 2
The Petitioners' proposed transaction must be viewed, and ultimately decided, through
the lense of the long and complex history regarding Caroline Water's service to the Lake
Caroline community. For years, the Association, Commission Staff, Caroline County, and the
Commission have expended resources to ensure that the Lake Caroline community receives
reliable water service at just and reasonable rates. The Petitioners' proposed transaction involves
numerous issues that will have a significant impact on water service both in the near- and longterms, yet the Petitioners have not addressed these issues in fidl in their Joint Petition. Other
issues have simply not been raised . More importantly, there is no factual evidence in the record
as to any issue. Yet, the issues in this case are not as simple or straightforward as the Petitioners
seemingly would have this Commission believe. Without a complete factual record, there is no
way the Commission can determine whether the Petitioners have satisfied their burdens of proof
under the Utility Transfers Act and the Utility Facilities Act.
A hearing is necessary to address the issues described below, and others as may become
evident throughout the course of the proceeding. The issues described below are not mutually
exclusive, as the determination of one issue is likely to impact other issues and, collectively, play

a large role in the future of water service in the Lake Caroline community. At the heart of the
Association's concerns is the absolute and unequivocal desire - indeed, obligation - to forever
protect the residents' recreational use and enjoyment of Lake Caroline. The issues raised below
certainly are related to this public interest concern and also impact reliability, rates, and terms
and conditions of water service in the Lake Caroline community.
H.
Request for Hearing
A.
Any approval of the transaction should include a condition that Aqua, for as
long as it Is the fi-anchised water provider, never take action that would in
any manner impede or inhibit the recreational use of Lake Caroline.
The Association is concerned that, if the transaction is allowed, Aqua will, at some point
in the future, take action that will impede the recreational use of Lake Caroline. Lake Caroline is
a 277-acre recreation lake containing an estimated 1 .5 bidlion gallons of ftesh water and other
small lakes situated throughout the development .3 Preservation and enjoyment of the Uke are
paramount to residents of the Lake Caroline community and also to Caroline County. As County
witness John Boryschuk testified in Case No. PUE-2005-00115 :
. . . the community residents don't want to see that lake used as a County reservoir.
They use it for recreational purposes. That is, to a certain extent, the reason for
the existence of the community. It is a lake community. People swim and boat
and fish in it. And they have made it rather plain to the County and the Board of
Supervisors that it's their desire that [the] lake remain a recreational lake, to
which the County has respected repeatedly that they agree that that's what it is,
it's a recreational lake. And it pretty much, if anything were to happen to take
away the recreational use of that lake, the community as it is now would really not
be the same . You know, there would be no reason for many of these people to
continue having their homes, since that's what drew them them to begin with .4
W Boryschuk continued that jeopardizing the recreational use of Lake Caroline would have a
"major impact" on Caroline County because its tax base and property values would decrease .5

With no factual record in this proceeding, the Commission cannot be assured that Aqua
will not take action in the fiture that would impede the recreational use of Lake Caroline.
Although Aqua stated in a discovery response that it will operate "in accordance with all
regulations and permits which by design, will not impede recreational use of Lake Caroline,"
Aqua seemingly will not agree, as was requested in the discovery request, to provide written
assurance to the Association and the Commission that it will not take any action, such as
modifying current permits or selling water off-system, that would impede the current recreational
use of Lake Caroline. 6 In fact~ as explained in more detail below, Aqua's desire to sell water
from Lake Caroline to Caroline County on an emergency basis and perhaps "from time to time,"
and potentially to sell water to other Aqua systems, raises concerns that future recreational use
could be jeopardized . 7 Add to this the potential of Aqua seeldng to increase the rating capacity
of the water facility, and it is clear that the issue of continued recreational use, and the actions
Aqua has highlighted and discussed more fully below that could impact recreational use, deserve
to be fleshed out in an evidentiary hearing.
B.
There is no evidence in the record that Aqua's request to rebuild the
Caroline Water facility is necessary or reasonable, or in the public interest
Caroline Water discontinued water treatment plant operations on April 6, 2009 and began
purchasing 100% of its water supply from Caroline County on an "interim" or 46emergency"
basis.8 On February 7, 201 1, the Commission entered an Order requiring Caroline Water to

purchase, on a permanent basis, 100% of its water supply firom the County.9 In reaching this
decision, the Commission undertook an analysis comparing the proposed cost to rebuidd with the
cost of purchased water, and the impact that each option would have on rates. The Commission
made the factual determination that purchasing water from the County, as opposed to Caroline
Water's proposed rebuild of the facility, would be a less costly alternative for ratepayers. The
Commission adopted the Hearing Examiner's recommendation that "the cost to the Company's
ratepayers of wholesale water purchase would be significantly less than the cost associated with
rebuilding the Company's treatment facilities .'" .
The Petitioners would have the Commission undo its February 7, 201 1 Order and rebuild
the water facility. There is no evidence supporting the Petitioners' request on this issue,
including not only the comparative costs of a rebuild versus purchased water but also the
reasonableness of Aqua's proposed repairs and their costs. Moreover, when litigating Case No.
PUE-2005-00115, Caroline Water proposed improvements to the water facility that totaled
approximately $3 million, much of which was the product of a PER and which Caroline Water
testified were necessary to make the facifity operational. There is no evidence yet in this
proceeding to explain whether Aqua's proposed improvements, which total much less than $3
million, are sufficient or reasonable, and how or why they differ fium Caroline Water's proposal
just a few years ago.
Finally as to the issue of rebuild versus purchased water, Caroline Water's
interconnection with the County has been in place now for over four years. The Commission
may need to determine whether allowing Aqua to rebuild the water facility would result in
redundant or duplicative facilities, as there would be an interconnection and also a rebuilt

facility. It is generally accepted that the original purpose of the Utility Facilities Act was to
prevent the economic waste and public inconvenience resulting from duplication of utility
facilities ." The Commission has determined that the uneconomic and wasteful duplication of
utility facilities is contrary to the public interest, and a concern for duplication of facilities
permeates the Utility Facilities Act.
12 In fact, the Virginia Supreme Court specifically found that
"the public ultimately pays" for duplication of facilities. 13 Similarly, the Commission has
determined that the Utility Facilities Act "was designed to avoid wasteful and costly duplication
of public utility facilities."14 Here, the Lake Caroline ratepayers have paid for the cost of the
interconnection, and now they are being asked to also pay for the rebuild. Whether a rebuild, as
Petitioners propose, is consistent with the Utility Facilities Act should be the subject of an
evidentiary hearing.
C.
There is no evidence in the record that Aqua's intention to reduce Lake
Caroline's safe yield to 1.4 MGD from 2.2 MGD is reasonable; in contrast,
the appropriate safe yield could be lower than 1.4 MGD.
Aqua intends to seek a reduction in the current safe yield for Lake Caroline from 2.2
MGD to 1 .4 MOD. While the Association welcomes this reduction, it might not be enough
even the Lake's current vohune and depth levels which have changed considerably over time.
The Safe Yield Analysis that Aqua presented in discovery, performed on August 6, 2013, used
data from 2001-2002. In 2008, the Association retained GKY & Associates, Inc. ("GKY") to

conduct a bathymetric survey and provide dredging volume computations for areas of the Lake .
In the Lake Caroline Bathymetry & Dredging Study, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 5,
GKY concluded that, from 1978 to 2006, Lake Caroline incurred a total volumetric decrease of
13.64%, and another 1 .01% from 2006 to 2008 ." GKY estimated that, since 1978, Lake
Caroline has reduced in volume by approximately 25 million cubic feet, a reduction that is likely
the result of silt, sediment, and organic matter flowing into the Lake from intermittent and
perennial feeder streams. 16 In sum, GKY concluded that, "sedimentation has led to a significant
loss of storage volume in the lake."17 These 2008 findings regarding the significant reduction in
Lake volume, compared with Aqua's reliance on 2002 data for its safe yield analysis, call into
question -whether the appropriate safe yield for the Lake should be lower than 1 .4 MGD.
Whether a reduction in the safe yield to 1 .4 MGD is reasonable should be considered in
an evidentiary hearing. The determination of that issue could impact Aqua's desire to increase
the rating capacity of the cur-rent facility, as Aqua suggests it might do and which is explained
below. It could also impact Aqua's ability to sell water off-system to Caroline County or to any
other purchaser, also discussed below. Moreover, it underscores the importance of protecting the
recreational use of Lake Caroline.
D.
Evidence is needed with respect to Aqua's intentions regarding the facility's
current permitted withdrawal capacity.
When asked in discovery whether it intends to seek modifications to the withdrawal
permit establishing a 0.576 MGD rating for the facility, Aqua responded that it intends to rebuild
the facility "within the existing VDH issued Operations permit of 0 .576 MGD based on the
ExMbit :5 at 8-9.

treatment filter unit capacity which will be replaced ."18 That response sounds Re Aqua does not
intend to increase the facility's rating. However, Aqua also produced in discovery a Minor
Surface Water Withdrawal Permit Application for the Caroline Water System. A copy of the
pertinent portions of the application is attached as Exhibit 7. In the application, Aqua states that
Im the event domestic water can be supplied to Caroline County as a back-up to its water supply
system, future daily withdrawal would be 1 .2 MGD." Aqua continues that, "[tlhe existing
withdrawal supplies water to the existing Ladysmith Water Company plant with a rated capacity
of 0.576 MGD, which is readily expandable to 1.2 MGD."'9 This reference to a potential
expansion from 0.576 MGD to 1 .2 MGD begs numerous questions, such as whether and when
Aqua intends to increase the facility's rating capacity, not to mention what, if any, impact that
may have on reliability, rates, the recreational use of the Lake, and the public interest in general.
E.
Evidence Is needed with respect to Aqua's Intention to sell water from Lake
Caroline outside of the Lake Caroline community.
As explained above, in discovery responses, Aqua has stated its intention to keep the
current interconnection with the County intact and to sell water to the County on an emergency
basis or from time to time . Also as stated above, Aqua has included in an application with the
DEQ a statement that should it render service to the County, it will need to increase the pernfitted
capacity of the current fiLcility. Furthermore, Aqua has not ruled out selling water from Lake
Caroline to other Aqua systems.
Aqua's intent to sell water off-system raises at least three concerns on which evidence is
needed . First, there is an issue as to whether Aqua legally may sell water from Lake Caroline to
anyone other than residents of the Caroline community. In 1970, the developer, Lake Caroline,
Petitioners Response to the Association's Inteffogatory No. 2, attached as Exhibit 6.

Inc., conveyed Lake Caroline to the Association." In Caroline Water Company, Inc., v. Lake
Caroline Property Owners Association, Inc., At Law No. 980069 (Cir. Ct. Caroline County Sept.
22, 1999), the Court analyzed a 1970 deed and a 1971 corrected deed by which the developer,
Lake Caroline, Inc., conveyed the water system, land, etc., to Caroline Water. The Court
determined that, under the deed and corrected deed, the conveyance fimn the developer to
Caroline Water "carried with it [an] implied easement to draw water fium Lake Caroline without
compensation to the defendantfor the purpose ofserving lots in the Lake Caroline
Development."21 (Emphasis added). Since Aqua would only acquire from Caroline Water an
implied easement to serve lots in the Caroline development, Aqua would not be allowed to
expand that implied easement and sell water to Caroline County, other Aqua systems, or other
purchasers outside of the Lake Caroline community. 'Me sale of water outside of the Lake
Caroline community is not consistent with the current implied easement nor does it satisfy the
common law elements necessary to establish an implied easement to sell off-system . 22
Second, assuming off-system sales are allowable, Aqua's intent to sell water off-system
could lead to reliability issues, impact rates, and would raise public interest concerns. Aqua's
proposal to sell off-system would result in increased revenues for Aqua, but there is no proposal
before the Commission relating to the sharing of these revenues between Aqua's shareholders
and the Caroline Water ratepayers. It would not be fair (and possibly unlawful) to the residents
of the Lake Caroline community - who have cared fbr the Lake, who own the Lake, and who
A cM of the September 19, 1970 dead conveying the Lake to the Association is attached as Exhibit S.

1FTh It 9.
22 See, e-g-, Brmm v. Haley, 233 Va. 210, 219 (1987), holding that "[w]hen a landowner conveys a
portion of his land, he implieffly conveys an easement for any use that is continuous, apparent, reasonably
necessary for the enjoyment of the property conveyed, and in existence at the time of the conveyance.,'
Here, off-systm sales do not satisfy those legal elements necessary for an implied easement because
there have never been any off-system sales, nor are such sales "necessary for the enjoyment of the
property conveyW."
have been forced to live with Caroline Water's problems on a seemingly daily basis - to receive
no benefit from off-system sales. There is also a concern about whether such revenues should be
included in Aqua's consolidated rate structure or be reserved solely for the benefit of the Lake
Caroline community.
Finally, it should be noted that in Case No. PUE-2002-00094, the Commission agreed
with the Association and directed Caroline Water to remove fi-om its proposed tariff a provision
allowing it to sell water off-system .23 Aqua's request would undo that prior decision, yet Aqua
has presented no evidence that it is reasonable to do so.
F.
Evidence is needed for Aqua to show that its proposed transaction Will lead
to rates that are just and reasonable.
Aqua states that the base rates for Caroline Water customers will remain the same until
the community is metered and sufficient time passes to assess usage, at which time Aqua will file
a rate case and incorporate Caroline Water customers into its consolidated rate structure .24 in
discovery, Aqua estimates what the rates might be under its consolidated rate structure, but on
this issue the Commission must find, under the Utility Transfers Act that the proposed
transaction will not impair just and reasonable rates. Given the long history of rate-related
proceedings involving Caroline Water, including Case No. PUE-2005-00115 which has been an
open case for almost eight full years, evidence is needed as to this transaction's impact on rates.
Furthermore, the Association has long contended that the current water rates are
excessive as a result of the Company's shift to purchasing 100% of its supply from the County.
The Commission in its February 7, 201 1 Order in Case No. PUE-2005-00115 directed Caroline
Water to file a rate case no later than July 29, 201 1, but Caroline Water did not comply with this
directive, sought extensions, and ultimately submitted an incomplete rate case application in
230rder at 12, Case No. PLTE-2002-00094 (Dec. 15, 2004).
24 See, e.g., Joint Petition at 2, 6-7.

October 201 1 . The Association has on two occasions requested that the Commission enter a
procedural schedule and proceed with the rate case. In any event, while that rate case sits idle,
Caroline Water's ratepayers continue to be charged, and to pay, too much for their water service.
Testimony is needed with respect to whether Aqua's curr-ent proposal would impair just and
reasonable rates in the short-term by continuing the current excessive rates while improvements
are made to the water facility .
1111.
Conclusion
The Association is not, as of this date, firmly opposed to the proposed transaction, but
evidence is needed to ensure that the Lake Caroline ratepayers' interests are protected . It may
very well be that the Commission, with input from the parties and Commission Staff, can fashion
conditions on the transaction to ensure that the recreational use of Lake Caroline is never
jeopardized, that the Caroline community directly benefits from any reasonable and necessary
off-system sales in which Aqua engages, and that reasonable rates and reliable service am not
impaired. The Association, through the introduction of written and oral testimony, including
cross-examination, looks forward to fleshing out these issues and developing a complete factual
record to ensure that its members' interests are protected and that the transaction, should it go
forward, complies with applicable law.
WHEREFORE, the Association requests that the Commission issue a notice setting this
matter for an evidentiary hearing, including the filing of written testimony.

Lake Caroline Bathymetty & Dredging Study
GKY & Associates, Inc. (GKY) was retained by Lake Caroline Property Owners
Association (LCPOA) to conduct a bathymetric survey and provide dredging volume
computations for areas of the lake . Lake Caroline is in Ruther Glen, Virginia, (Figure 1),
north of Richmond, Virginia and south of Fredericksburg, Virginia.
Area Description
Lake Caroline, constructed in 1967, is a 277-acre man-made lake and is located within
the Pole Cat Creek drainage basin. The lake has approximately 10 miles of shoreline that
is predominantly surrounded by single family homes. The lake is positioned west of
Jefferson Davis Highway (Route 1), north of Cedar Fork Road (Route 601), south of
Ladysmith Road (Route 699), and can be accessed via Lake Caroline Drive (see Figure 2
for map showing local streets) .
Prior to conducting the bathymetry survey, GKY reviewed the United States Geological
Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute Topographical Quadrangle Map for Hewlett, Virginia (1984
revision), available aerial photography, a previous bathymetric survey map performed by
Virginia Tech from 1978-1980 and GKY's bathymetric survey from 2006 . The above
referenced images were included in the 2006 report prepared by GKY for the LCPOA
and can be found in that report .
The USGS Quadrangle Map shows Stevens Mill Run as the main flow source with
several additional intermittent and perennial systems supplying flow to the lake as well.
Stevens Mill Run drains the lake to the east via the principal spillway along Lake
Caroline Drive which is located on top of the dam. The USGS quad map depicts the
majority of the Lake Caroline watershed as forested and some cleared areas associated
with residential development .
The USGS quad map, however, does not show the construction of Pendelton a
residential
'
development and golf course community directly north of Lake Caroline. ihe
Pendelton community drains into Lake Caroline at areas I - 4 (See Map 3 - Dredging
Areas & Aerial Photography for locations) with the northwestern-most cove (Area 4) of
Lake Caroline (referred to as "the pumps area") separated from the main lake by Lake
Caroline Drive (Route 683) . This cove eventually drains into Lake Caroline via a series
of concrete culverts .

Technical Approach
Bathymetry fieldwork was conducted in December 2008 . LCPOA provided a 14'
pontoon boat with an accomplished driver and GKY performed the bathymetric survey
onboard the boat utilizing a Trimble GeoXT Differential Global Positioning System
(DGPS) for horizontal control (horizontal accuracy to less than I meter), linked to an
Odom HT100 echo depth sounding unit (vertical accuracy to approximately 0.1 foot).
Bathymetry data was collected and stored in HyPackg Max (version 6.2) hydrographic
survey software . Ile HTI 00 measures ten soundings per second while the GeoXT OPS
unit collects one sub-meter horizontal location per second in real-time. As a result, one
depth sounding at an associated location was collected per second, stored, and mapped by
Hypack. This data collection scheme and all of the equipment used for the data
collection is considered to be industry-standard equipment for bathymetric survey
activities .
Data was collected along the passable depths of the lakeshore contour, as well as along
broad transects across the body of the lake and coves. Over one million sounding data
points were collected initially. This data was reduced to facilitate the generation of a
three-dimensional model used for analysis and lake contour mapping.
Before survey activities commenced each day, the gauge located near the emergency
spillway was checked to verify the water surface elevation. The water level was
approximately F below the top of concrete at the emergency spillway for all of the
survey days with the exception of the last day when the water was even with the concrete
wall. As a result, the equipment was calibrated to account for the water surface
fluctuation and to ensure that the survey points were consistent with what had already
been collected. The water surface elevation or elevation datum for sounding depth 0 is
assumed for this project to be 197', nearly 0.7' less than GKY's bathymetric survey in
2006. However, to be consistent with GKY's previous bathymetric survey the sounding
depths were adjusted by 0 .7' during the post processing phase. As stated in GKY's 2006
report the assumed datum for the 1978 study was 198' or 0.3' greater than GKY's 2006
& 2008 study.
Bathynkeby ResLft
Summary of Results
Ile results of the current bathymetric survey show that many areas of the lake have
remidned relatively similar to GKY's 2006 mapping, while a few areas have changed
significantly. As stated in GKY's 2006 report, the cove areas, in general, appear to be
significantly shallower then the 1978 study. Since 2006 the contour defintion in the cove
areas has not changed significantly enough to indicate significant volumetric increases or
decreases. Key differences between the current study and the 2006 study occur in the
main portion of the lake where the 15 & 30 foot contours have shifted significantly. The
sedimentation has led to a significant loss of storage volume in the lake.
P
Balthymetric Mapping
The current bathymetric mapping has been prepared to be consistent with the bathymetric
mapping prepared in GKY's 2006 study. GKY's 2006 mapping (Figure 3 & Map 1) and
GKY's current 2008 mapping (Figure 4 & Map 2) are the basis for comparison for
determining the bathymaric changes over the past two years. The bathymetric changes
between the two studies are considered additional to those observed in the 2006 study and
have been considered in determining dredge volumes and areas (Map 4).
'Me
bathymetric maps show soundings at 5-foot intervals and as the soundings get deeper the
shades of blue get darker, documenting a greater depth. The deepest area of the lake is
located along the southeast portion of the dam and is approximately 33' . The 2008
mapping also provides detailed sounding points throughout the entire lake to provide a
depth reference for various areas.

Morphologic and Bathymetric Changes From 2006 - 20M
Between GKY's 2006 and 2008 studies, few significant bathymetric changes have
occurred in the lake and several insignificant bathymetric changes have occurred . As
previously stated, minor sedimentation has continued in cove areas, predominantly areas
I - 5. The sedimentation is evident by contour narrowing and increased distance from
the shoreline . T'he remaining coves appear to be consistent with the documentation in the
2006 study and in comparison to the rest of the lake the continued sedimentation is
insignificant.
The main part of the lake (non cove area) has also continued to shallow since GKY's
2006 study which is evident by interpreting the contours from the western portion of the
lake, adjacent to where Stevens Mill Creek enters (Area 5 on Map 3), eastward to the
dam . In comparing GKY's 2006 study to the current study the sedimentation in the main
part of the lake (Area 10 on Map 3) represents the major bathymetric. change . Tlie
sedimentation can Rely be attributed to silt, sediment and organic matter flowing into
the lake and settling, resulting in a volumetric decrease.
In comparing the 2006 and 2008 studies, a total volumetric decrease of 1 .01% has
occurred in Lake Caroline, with some areas decreasing more than others. Specific areas
that likely contribute to the volumetric decrease can be found on GKY's 2008
Bathymetric Mapping (Figure 4 and Maps 2 & 3) and are described below :
The 15-foot sounding depth line in 2006 ended on the western side of cove Area 3 . In
2008, the sounding depth line ended nearly 1400' downstream of cove Area 3,
indicating that this area had likely filled with material.
1-4
W
In 2006, the 30-foot sounding depth line was depicted on the mapping as a closed,
connected, island located in the south eastern portion of the lake adjacent to the dam.
However, in 2008 the 30- foot sounding depth line was broken into three separate
islands and reduced in size by nearly 75% (see Table 1).
'Me 5-foot sounding depth line in 2006 at the beach at Saratoga Cove appeared to
extend inward from the shore nearly 150' - 250' . In 2008, the 5-foot sounding depth
line is depicted to extend 70' - 100' inward from the shore, which indicates that the
depth closer to the shore has become deeper since GKY's 2006 study . LCPOA staff
confirmed that the beach area had been recently dredged of a couple hundred cubic
yards of sand . The recent dredging contributes to a volumetric increase for the lake .
-
The 5-foot sounding depth line in Area 3 (see Map 3 for location) is depicted in the
2008 mapping approximately 300' downstream of where it was depicted in the 2006
study. The sounding depth line also appears to be located slightly further inward
from the eastern and western shores, which would indicate that this depth has
narrowed as it proceeds upstream into the cove.
-
The 2008 5-foot and 10-foot depth lines in area 5 have been surveyed and depicted
200' and 400' respectively, downstream from where they were surveyed and shown
in the 2006 study. Again, silt and sediment flowing into the lake is likely the cause
of the sounding depth line shift downstream .
-
Contour areas 20-25 & 25-30 have shown insignificant volumetric increases of 0.36%
and 0.22% respectively. Contours 30+ have had a volumetric reduction of 73.46%.
-
The lake has an overall volumetric reduction of approximately 1 .01% from 2006
conditions and 14 .62% since 1978 . The approximated volume distribution by depth
is shown in Table I and shows the comparison for all three studies. This estimation
is based upon a comparison between volumes determined by the use of data
measured, collected and mapped in different manners (1978 vs. 2006 & 2008). Also,
the volumes in the current study were derived using the Average End Area method
using 5-foot contour intervals. This method averages the surface area for consecutive
contours and multiplies that average area by difference in depth . This is a very
common method of estimating volumes within a basin, and it was assumed that this is
the method that was used in the 1978 study. For consistency purposes we chose the
same method for the 2006 study and the current study.

Since 2006, contour areas 0-5 & 5-10 have shown respective volumetric increases in
of 2.67% and 5.44%. The volumetric increase can likely be attributed to additional,
manual "push pole" survey techniques in shallow areas that provide accurate depth
soundings readings that supplement the measures taken by the HTI 00 depth sounder.
Drefting
Dredging Overview
Since 1978 it is estimated that Lake Caroline has reduced in volume by 14.65%, or
approximately 25 million cubic feet . Although there could be several reasons for the
volurnetric reduction, silt, sediment and organic matter has likely flowed into the lake
from intermittent and perennial feeder streams and is the probable source and explanation
for the volumetric decrease . An increase in silts, sediments and organic matter can
potentially limit recreational opportunities. Therefore, dredging lake areas that show
significant volumetric decreases since 1978 is the practical solution for removing fill
material and maximizing recreational potential. Dredging, or underwater excavation,
utilizes heavy equipment that scoops or vacuums material from the lake bottom and
disposes the material outside the footprint of the resource . Dredging is certainly an
option for restoring the original lake bottom . To facilitate the identification and
interpretation of dredging volume quantities for specific locations within the lake, ten
areas have been identified (see Map 3 for area locations) and approximate dredge
quantities have been computed for each area . Estimated dredging volumes for each area
provide an opportunity to establish a priority ranking system based on the amount of
dredge material, access issues, dredging method, and disposal . Upon developing a
priority ranking system, an overall dredging plan can be developed for the lake that
focuses on a timeline for short term and long term dredging goals for the entire lake .
Dredging Volume Quantity Takeoff
The dredging volume quantity takeoff was based on the bathymetric changes to the lake
bottom between 1978 and 2008. Approximately 14 .65% or 25 million cubic feet of lake
volume is believed to have been filled by silt, sediment and organic. Dredging volumes
specific to the areas described above (see Map 3 for area locations) have been developed
based on a comparison between depth soundings from the 1978 study and the current
study. A proposed lake bottom contour alignment (see Map 4) similar to the 1978
contour alignment has been developed for each area to assist in determining the dredge
volumes. Potential dredging areas are described below and Table 2 summarizes the
dredging volume takeoff for each area :
-
Area 10 (shown on Maps 3 & 4), represents the main portion of the lake (non cove
area) and is where an estimated 83 .64% (664,443 cubic yards) of the total dredge
material should be removed to provide a volumetric increase of roughly 13 .73%.
Because of the potential dredge material volume in this area and the fluctuation in
depths, several different dredging methods and equipment may be necessary to
adequately remove the material. For example, in the deeper portions of this area
hydraulic dredging as opposed to mechanical dredging may be necessary due to the
limited depths that a mechanical arm can reach. Also, in the shallower portions of
this area it may make sense to use a pipeline dredge that vacuums material from the
H
W
a
bottom at one and discharges the material to a temporary disposal site . This would
reduce the need for a barge and would limit the risk of a barge bogging down in
shallow areas. However if the lake can be dewatered or lowered, then some portions
of this area can be mechanically dredged using an excavator and hauled with a dump
truck, reducing the need for the barges and hydraulic equipment.
Area I is located adjacent to the main entrance to Lake Carofine and represents 3
small cove areas. An estimated 43,000 cubic yards would need to be dredged from
this area to restore the lake bottom to 1979 conditions . This dredging activity
represents 5.52% of the total dredge volume and would provide a volumetric increase
of 34.44% for this area. A portion of this cove located adjacent to Lake Caroline
Drive may be mechanically dredged from the existing roadway by the LCPOA
maintenance department .
The percentage of total dredge activities for Area 2 (1 .12%) is small in comparison to
other areas, but would provide a volumetric increme of 5 .2%. In comparing the 1978
map (Map 5) for this cove to the current map (Map 2) the primary loss in volume has
occurred from depths 0-5 and since the configuration of this cove is tight it is unlikely
that a barge or heavy equipment would be able to access this area . Portions of this
area could be dredged from land with approval from property owners . To dredge the
remaining portions of this area, the lake could be dewatered or lowered a few feet to
provide additional access from land for an excavator and dump trucks for the
dredging and hauling activities . Both options are potentially within the means of the
LCPOA maintenance department.
In comparing the 1978 mapping and the current mapping, Area 3 appears to have
shallowed significantly, with the 5-foot contour shifted downstream approximately
300' and outward from the shore. Dredging in this area would represent 4.28% of the
total dredge volumed and would provide a volumetric increase of 59 .41% for this
area. Area 3 is a broad shallow cove . As a result, dredging options for this area may

Area 4 is a main inflow into Lake Caroline and has significantly decreased in volume.
Since the 10-foot contour ends close to this area, perhaps this area can be
mechanically dredged utilizing a dipper dredge or clanishell dredge in conjunction
with a barge. Hydraulic dredging is an option for material removal.
As documented in GKY's 2006 report, LCPOA staff has stated that dredging work
was performed in 1987 for Area 5 with the goal to reduce the amount of aquatic
vegetation in the lake. The exact area and volume of this dredging is unknown.
Regardless, the current conditions show that area should be dredged, providing an
approximate volumetric increase of 16 .02%. This area is long and shallow and
presents access issues for barges and large equipment. Dewatering the lake and
accessing this area from the park located at the western end of this area would
provide access for mechanical dredging equipment to enter the lake for material
removal.

Amu 6 - 8 have had insignificant volumetric decreases since 1978 and could be
dredged if so desired. 1hese smaU, narrow areas present dredging opportunities from
the adjacent shore with approval from property owners . Dewatering these areas
would also provide opportunity for mechanical dredging . Hydraulic dredging is also
an option .
With approximately 1 .62% of total dredge volume removed in area 9, a volumetric
increase of 17.39% is possible. The 10-foot and 15-foot sounding depth lines am
close to the dredging area providing an opportunity fbr this area to be mechanically
dredged utilizing a dipper dredge or cIamshell dredge and a barge. Hydraulic
dredging is also an option .

if the laU is dredged to the proposed depth sounding lines shown on Map 3, the removal
of nearly 795,000 cubic yards of material would result in a volumetric increase of
approximately 12 .69%. The 12 .69% volumetric increase is still 1 .96% lower than the
14.65% difference computed by comparing the 1978 conditions to the current conditions .
However approximately 3 .6 million cubic feet of volume were lost when GKY assumed a
datum at 197.7' or 0.3' less than the daturn assumed by the 1979 Virginia Tech study. If
the 3.6 million cubic feet were added to the overall proposed volume, then the volumetric
increase would go firom 12.69% to 14 .52% and approximately the same volume as the
original 1978 volume. See Table 3 below:

Dredging Options
There are three dredging methods that are commonly used throughout the world with
each type achieving different production rates, posing different challenges and
accomplishing different goals. In the United States common dredging methods include
mechanical dredging and hydraulic dredging while internationally, airlift dredging is
commonly used for contaminated material . In this study, mechanical dredging and
hydraulic dredging appear to be two methods that should be explored.
Mechanical dredges employ the use of equipment with buckets that scoop material fi-orn
the lake bottom and place it onto barges. Dipper dredges (Figure 5) and clamshell
dredges (Figures 6) are the most common types of mechanical dredges used, with the
only difference being the bucket configuration . The bucket on a dipper dredge is similar
to a conventional excavator bucket while the clamshell bucket is suspended from a cable
and opens and closes at the bottom . Both types of dredges are generally mounted to a
barge and towed to a desired location . Additional barges would be used to load and
transport dredge material .
Mechanical dredges are easily operated in confined areas and the production yield is
relatively high on a material per bucket basis. When using multiple barges the
excavation is efficient . One barge can be filled while the other(s) can be towed or
unloaded, limiting interruption to operations . Mechanical dredges, however, are bulky
and somewhat awkward to move and are best used for excavation of rocks or highly
compacted lake bottom material. Barges can be large and have a relatively low draft
which may prevent their use in shallower areas. In Lake Caroline's case, many of the
coves am somewhat confined, which would require low draft barges and small to
moderate sized equipment. In certain situations the shallow depths may render
mechanical dredging infeasible.

Ile two commonly used hydraulic dredges are the pipeline dredge (Figure 7 with a
cutterhead) and the hopper dredge (Figure 8). Both hydraulic dredging types are
mountcd to barges, secured with anchor pilings (spuds) and have an intake pipe that is
submerged to the lake bottom to vacuum material . A cutterhead is a device with rotating
blades or teeth and is generally attached to the intake pipe to loosen material for
facilitating the vacuum process. As the materials are vacuumed from die lake bottom, it
discharges a mixture of solids and liquids into a discharge pipeline that floats on the
water's surface and conveys material to a disposal site or temporary disposal site. 'Me
cutterhead pipeline dredges are generally used in large, deep impoundments and
minimizes lake transport, loading, hauling and unloading, therefore cutting costs while
retaining removal efficiency . The hopper dredge retains removed material in a large
containment area on board the same barge and transports material to the disposal site
13
~A
W
where the material is then pumped from the containment area . In using-a hopper dredge,
it takes time to transport material from the dredging area to the disposal area
consequently losing efficiency and potentially increasing overall cost
For Lake Caroline, a cutterhead pipeline dredge may be a feasible option for many areas
of the lake if there is access to a reasonably close, permitted disposal area . Should no
disposal area exist then one would have to be constructed with a dewatering area and it
should be large enough to accommodate high material volumes. The hopper dredge
probably is not a feasible option for Lake Caroline due to the equipments size and draft
requirements.

Dredging Costs
Costs for dredging can be broken down into mobilization/stabilization, removal, tramport
and disposal/dumping . Mobilization/stabilization costs include the costs associated with
moving equipment on site, providing erosion and sediment control, right-of-way
protection and after-project seeding/sodding . Removal costs are associated with the
actual excavation of material from the lake bottom and are fairly consistent for both
dredging methods. Transport costs are related to the actual material movement from the
dredging location to the disposal site. Disposal/dumping costs are relevant for disposing
the dredged material at landfills or other permitted locations. The disposal area location
and its associated components dictates the majority of the dredging project scope and
influences several variables that affect the overall dredging costTypically, onsite disposal, off-site disposal and landfill disposal are viable options for
disposing dredge spoils. Onsite disposal is the disposal of dredge spoils in areas ad acent
to the lake or within the LCPOA lake community . Offsite disposal is the disposal of
dredge spoils outside of the lake community. Landfill disposal is the disposal of dredge
spoils at a permitted landfill site that has the ability to receive mud and/or slurry material.
Onsite disposal is usually the cheapest option and landfill disposal is generally the most
expensive option . Costs for disposal options vary and will fluctuate based on dredging
type as well. For this study, 10% of the overall dredge volume or approximately 80,000
cubic yards will be used to generate approximate costs.
For each disposal option, the mobilization costs for mechanical dredging are generally
the same and include excavation equipment, the associated barges and the construction of
a suging area for spoil unloading . Assuming three or four small to medium sized barges,
(one for dredging equipment and two or three barges for sediment transport) an excavator
for sediment removal from the barges, and several dump trucks, the costs for equipment
mobilization could be $70,000 - $100,000. On a cubic yard basis, removal and barge
transport to the staging area is relatively inexpensive ($IO/CY - $20/CY) assuming an
efficient dredge removal rate and efficient barge transport methods. Additional hauling
transportation costs generally start at $8/CY for one mile (round trip) and increase as the
distance to the disposal area increases. For this study, $30 will be used as the maximum
unit cost for hauling for an assumed 5 mile (round trip) hauling distance. For onsite and
offsite disposal a containment area would be constructed similar to a sediment basin
complete with a dam, riser structure, principal spillway pipe, and an outfall. The
containment area intends to contain the dredge spoils throughout the dewatering process.
The containment area would be constructed to accomodate 80,000 cubic yards and could
cost $10,000 - $20,000. Onsite and offsite disposal would require a closeout period to
ensure the dredge spoils are dewatered. The length of closeout period depends on how
wet the spoils are with extremely wet spoils in a slurry consistency lasting the longesL In
addition to thorough dewatering and monitoring, the containment area would be
deconstructed and graded during the closeout period. The closeout could be $30,000 $50,000. Should onsite or ofEsite disposal not be a viable option then the material could
be disposed of at a permitted landfill for approximately $35/CY. A "closeout" period is
not needed for disposal at a permitted landfill . This cost does not include site specific
costs for permitting, erosion and sediment control plans, land purchase or lease (for
ofEsite disposal areas) for containment construction . Prior to dredging and disposal, a

PA
TPH's (total petroleum hydrocarbons, otherwise known as oil and gas) test and a TCLIP
test (metals, semi volatiles, volatiles, and pesticides) should be conducted to ensure that
no illicit materials are attached to spoil particles . These tests could cost $10,000 $20,000 . Additional site specific costs may be necessary for onsite or offisite disposal and
include permitting, Erosion and Sediment Control Plans, Grading Plans and land
purchase or lease (if no offsite disposal area can be determined it may make sense for
LCPOA to purchase or lease land for dredge spoil disposal purposes) . For mechanical
dredging the costs vary from approximately $20/CY - $92CY (Table 4) and are
dependent on a number of variables.

Hydraulic dredging is generally a less expensive option on a per cubic yard basis.
Additional pipeline mobilization and assemblage generally increases overall mobilization
costs to approximately $90,000 - $120,000. Ile mobilization cost includes two pieces of
equipment, one barge and one hydraulic dredge mounted to the barge, lW' or 12" HDPE
pipe up to one mile and two pipeline assemblages. Because the lake is approximately
two miles long and pipelines generally should not exceed one mile, two containment
(decanting) basins would need to be constructed adjacent to the take for dredge spoils.
The pipeline would have to be dismantled, moved, and reconstructed to ensure that
pumping to the decanting basins does not exceed one mile. On a cubic yard basis,
removal and transport is approximately the sarne as mechanical dredging at $10/CY $20/CY assuming hydraulic pumps produce 3000 - 4500 GPM (gallons per minute) to
maintain the velocities (15 - 20 ft1s) needed to transport the material . The containment
(decanting) basins will have to be engineered and constructed to contain a heavy slurry
material that has an extended dewatering period. The engineered containment area would
typically be located adjacent to the lake for dewatering into the lake while the sediments
are contained. It would be complete with an approximate 8' tall darn, riser structure,
principal spillway pipe and possibly an emergency spillway. Since two of the areas
would be required to accommodate the one mile pumping distance, the cost for the
Is
I-h
W
engineered containment (decanting) basins could be $200,000 - $250,000. To speed up
the dewatering process, decommissioning the dredge spoils is typical and could cost
$2/CY - $5/CY. A TPH's (total petroleum hydrocarbons, otherwise known as oil and
gas) test and a TCLIP test (metals, semi volatiles, volatiles, and pesticides) should be
conducted prior to disposal and could cost $10,000 - $20,000 . A closeout cost of
approximately $120,000 - $160,000 for the containment sites is necessary to ensure the
material is dewatered, graded and stable. Additional site specific costs may be necessary
for onsite or offsite disposal and include permitting, Erosion and Sediment Control Plans,
Grading Plans and land purchase or lease (if no offsite disposal area can be determined it
may make sense for LCPOA to purchase or lease land for dredge spoil disposal
purposes). For hydraulic dredging the costs vary from approximately $18/CY - $33CY

Conclusion
In comparing three separate bathymetric studies conducted over the past thirty years,
Lake Caroline has had a reduction in lake water volume of nearly 14.65% or 25 million
cubic feet, and is averaging a 0.5% or 1 .2 million cubic feet reduction per year.
Consequently, recreational opportunities have been affected and dredging the
accumulated fill material can restore it to the 1978 conditions. Dredging all 277 acres of
Lake Caroline would likely require a detailed dredging plan that utilizes both mechanical
and hydraulic dredging techniques which are carefUlly planned over many years. As
shown in this report, the costs associated with both dredging types vary and can be
manageable with a dredging plan that focuses on accomplishing the task while managing
LCPOA's short term and long term goals and objectives .
