Strong Economy / High Water Stress Scenario Methods and Assumptions

  • Additional population growth by 2060:
  • +25% in urban counties
  • +10% in rural counties
  • Applies to these sectors:
  • Major Water Systems (by major water system)
  • Self-supplied Residential and Minor Systems (at the county level)
  • Self-supplied Non-residential
  • Agriculture Irrigation
  • Sources of water are assumed equal to 2016 proportions

(except more Ag irrigation demand from groundwater)

  • Hotter temperatures and lower rainfall trends

slide-9
SLIDE 9

Substantial Agriculture Expansion Methods and Assumptions

  • Applies to two sectors:
  • Self-supplied Nonresidential (by agriculture industry)
  • Baseline demands for all other sectors
  • Sources of water are assumed equal to 2016 proportions

  • Developed using weather-demand regression model specific

to MO and climate change model outputs

  • Resulting adjustment factors by basin/HUC
  • Multiplied by future projections to represent climate

scenarios

  • Hot/Dry – 8% to 12% increases

Climate Variability – Recharge Projections

  • Gridded runoff:
  • Each GCM projection (precipitation

and temperature) used as input to macroscale hydrologic model (VIC)

  • Applied for same 1/8th degree grid
  • Spatially distributed; coarsely

calibrated at large basin scale

  • Output = monthly runoff and ET

projections for each grid cell

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Climate Variability – Recharge Projections

19

  • Net Recharge was calculated for

each grid cell and each month as: Precip – ET – Runoff = Net Recharge*

* Change in subsurface storage. If positive, then recharge. If negative, then net loss through ET (soil evap + ET through deep roots) + baseflow losses (subsurface runoff).

  • Major source of

water supply

  • Water supply
  • Hydropower
  • Irrigation
  • Recreation

  • Major contributor to

Future Missouri River Upstream Depletions

  • For the purposes of scenario planning MoDNR has

completed calculations to estimate future upstream depletions

30

  • Two major sources:
  • Sedimentation of

mainstem reservoirs

  • 9% reduction in flows into

the state during a drought

  • Increased upstream

demands

  • 14% reduction in flows

  • All Scenario 2 Missouri-Nishnabotna demands are shown as

Missouri River Demands

  • Missouri River inflows

represent 1956 inflows to northwest Missouri

  • Supply exceeds demand
  • Concerns with Missouri River

relate to combined effect of bed degradation and reduced flows

Missouri River Bed Degradation

  • Examples of impacted infrastructure:
  • Bridges
  • Water supply intake
  • Floodwalls
  • Levees
  • Navigation Structures
  • Bed elevation decline at KC

Water supply disruptions

slide-36
SLIDE 36

Potential Causes of Disruption

  • Disruption – short duration (less than 1 week) event requiring

an alternative water supply source be used

  • Primarily related to surface water supply
  • Missouri River, also
  • Reservoirs
  • Smaller streams used for water supply
  • Causes of disruption
  • Chemical spill
  • Water supply system failures (could be > 1 week)

36

slide-37
SLIDE 37

Elk River Chemical Spill

  • January 9, 2014 in Charleston, West Virginia
  • 7,500 gallons of crude 4-methylcyclohexanemethanol (MCHM)

leaked into the Elk River

  • Spill triggered a “do-not-use” advisory for the entire Charleston

metropolitan area

  • Advisory was in place for 5+ days before water supply was safe for

use again

Disruption Resiliency for Missouri River Water Supply

  • Water providers using the Missouri River as their water supply source

were contacted to evaluate existing supply resiliency efforts

  • Sources of backup supply for surveyed facilities include:
  • Mississippi River
  • Nearby groundwater
  • Hauled water from neighboring systems

Limitations of the Analysis

43

  • Comparisons of supply and demand at the subregional

  • Results do not consider in-place infrastructure
  • Alluvial demands treated as groundwater (but may impose

stress to surface water)

  • Results are preliminary – Ag demands recently incorporated

Infrastructure Feedback

November 28, 2018

  • Primary concern for small communities is funding
  • Small communities are not able to actively replace aging

infrastructure

  • MoDNR and EIERA work together to provide funding when possible
  • Large utilities are focused on maintaining existing

infrastructure (rehab and replacement)

  • Even at replacement rates above the national average, large

communities are far behind on needed replacements to maintain systems

56

slide-57
SLIDE 57

Infrastructure Feedback

November 28, 2018

  • Numerous variables impede Regionalization efforts
  • Concerns of NRW, cost of interconnections vs drilling new wells
  • Regulations including ammonia restrictions and

reclassification of streams are major infrastructure drivers for wastewater

  • These improvements impact wastewater rates

Breakout groups

  • Are there areas of localized supply stress to discuss?
  • Are there any other regional water supply projects planned?
  • By subregion (HUC4), what identified and other strategies

could be used to address supply stress and disruptions?

Future Strategies - Agriculture

  • Tile Drain recycled water in Northern Missouri (Other areas?)
  • System efficiency in the Bootheel with furrow irrigation and

transition to high value crops (Other areas?)

  • Meeting demand for expanded food processing state wide

(See handout)

  • Expanded groundwater use for livestock
  • Expanded alluvial groundwater use for additional irrigation
