Commented [AB1]: If references to outside customers
are removed, we can remove this.
Commented [RK2R1]: This can be removed
Commented [AB3]: Question to JWC: Are there outside
customers currently served by JWC?
Commented [BA(4]: JWC to confirm the desired
maximum daily amount of capacity to be reserved.
Commented [RK5R4]: JWC is OK with this number
Commented [RK6R4]: Follow up question - what would it
look like if we to increase this number slightly? Lots of
apartments going in right now and there is some minor
concern with future flows.
Commented [BA(7R4]: This section does include the
provision to increase the maximum amount under a
subsequent written agreement (i.e. a future amendment).
Minneapolis is open to JWC recommending language that
would make this option clearer.
supplement, may supplement water from sources other than Minneapolis.
b. Minneapolis and JWC will partner to develop a daily delivery schedule for the flow rate
and duration of water to be delivered considering the water demand profile of the JWC
and its storage volume. JWC will endeavor to draw during off peak hours from 9:00 p.m.
to 9:00 a.m. The JWC shall make every reasonable effort to adhere to this daily delivery
schedule and will provide reasonable advance notice to Minneapolis when deviations are
anticipated.
c. If the JWC requests potable water service from Minneapolis in excess of the maximum
daily volume defined in Section 3(a) on an intermittent but not sustained basis,
Minneapolis will provide additional potable water service to the JWC if Minneapolis
determines that additional potable water service is available. Water in excess of the
maximum daily volume on any given day will be billed at a surcharge, as outlined in
Section 8(f) of this Agreement.
d. The JWC may develop an emergency backup water supply from other sources including
groundwater. If the JWC develops an emergency backup water supply, this supply may be
used only if Minneapolis notifies the JWC that Minneapolis is unable to supply the JWC's
needs as defined in Section 3(a).
e. The JWC shall own, operate, and maintain the water distribution system and storage
facilities necessary to supply potable water service to its consumers from the points of
connection.
4. Obligation of JWC.
a. The JWC shall make investments in and own all facilities necessary for the transmission,
storage, and distribution of potable water service from the points of connection to its
consumers. Exhibit 1 shows the points of connection and ownership of facilities.
b. JWC shall operate and maintain its facilities at the points of connection from Minneapolis
to control excessive pressure fluctuations in the Minneapolis transmission system and
prevent cavitation in piping delivery systems and Minneapolis flow meters.
b.c. The parties desire to install a valve on the Minneapolis 48-inch transmission main
between the two 24-inch connections supplying the Golden Valley. This future valve is
indicated as “FUTURE 48” VALVE WITH ACCESS VAULT” in Exhibit 2. Minneapolis agrees
to procure and install this valve. The project costs of the valve installation project shall
be shared on a 50% - 50% basis between the JWC and Minneapolis. Minneapolis shall
design, procure and install the valve and Golden Valley shall perform site restoration
work. Minneapolis shall submit plans and project cost estimate for JWC’s review and
approval prior to commencement of installation. Minneapolis shall own the 48” valve and
vault.
Commented [BA(8]: Minneapolis proposes this language
for the upcoming valve installation project. I (Annika)
modeled it after Paragraph 4.D in Amendment 1 to the
existing contract.
5. Maintenance.

one week prior notice.
b. The JWC may review any water quality data maintained by Minneapolis on one week prior
notice.
c. In the event of operational or water quality problems, or both, in the JWC water system,
both parties pledge to work cooperatively to resolve them in a timely manner. Each party
shall be responsible for the costs of all reasonably necessary work, related to the
operational or water quality problems, which take place on its side of the points of
connection between the two water systems.
d. Minneapolis and JWC shall follow the right of way ordinances and permitting
requirements of the cities in which work is being performed.
6. Measurement.
The potable water service received by the JWC pursuant to this Agreement shall be measured by
meters to be furnished and maintained by the City of Minneapolis at its own cost and expense,
installed at the meter vaults identified in Exhibits 1 and 2. The meters shall be subject to annual
inspection and testing by Minneapolis water personnel using the American Water Works
Association (AWWA) standards for accuracy and tolerances of meters. Results of said meter
testing will be shared with the JWC within a reasonable amount of time following each testing.
The cost of the testing initiated by Minneapolis shall be paid by Minneapolis. Notwithstanding the
former, the JWC reserves the right to test the same said meters at its own cost after one week
prior notice to Minneapolis.
7. Meter Reading and Billing.
Meter reading and billing for services provided under this Agreement shall be in accordance with
current Minneapolis practices and are subject to change at any time by Minneapolis. Payments
for billed services shall be made by the JWC to Minneapolis on or before the due date noted on
the bill. Failure of the JWC to make such payments will, in addition to liability therefore, subject
the JWC to cancellation or suspension of services as stated in Section 13 below.
8. Rates.
a. Water Rate: A new water volume rate will be established on January 1, 2024 and every
January 1st thereafter based on the Annual Adjustment process, and the Cost of Service
Model adjustment, as described in this section.
b. Annual Adjustments: Annual adjustments to the water volume rate shall be made each
year, based on the percentage change in the average monthly bill paid by a Minneapolis
residential consumer compared to the previous year. For example, the percentage
change from 2024 to 2025 in the average monthly bill will be used to adjust rates for
wholesale consumers effective January 1, 2025. “Average monthly bill” shall be defined
as the monthly bill for a Minneapolis residential consumer consisting of 7 billing units of
potable water consumption and the fixed charge fee for a 5/8” meter.
c. Cost of Service Model Adjustments: Minneapolis’s Cost of Service Model shall be updated
every three years to set a new water volume rate effective January 1st of the year
following the update of the model. For example, the Cost of Service Model will be
updated in 2025 and new water volume rates for wholesale consumers will be effective
January 1, 2026.
e. Methodology: If and when Minneapolis seeks to change the methodology used in its Cost
of Service Model, Minneapolis agrees to meet with the JWC’s Contract Manager to
explain the potential changes to the currently accepted methodology prior to
Minneapolis finalizing a change.
f. Surcharge: In the event that the JWC’s daily purchase amount exceeds the maximum
daily amount defined in Section 3(a), the amount delivered above the maximum will be
charged at a surcharge rate of 115% of the JWC’s water rate. Future written agreements
that increase the maximum daily amount shall also review, and if appropriate, update this
surcharge rate.
9. Consumer Volume Restrictions.
The Minneapolis City Engineer or their appointed representative may declare an emergency
caused by shortage of water supply or lowering of water pressure in the water mains of
Minneapolis and decide upon the proper method and duration of restrictions necessary.
Restrictions imposed by Minneapolis Water Works upon its own customers shall be
simultaneously imposed by the JWC upon its customers. Minneapolis will not impose restrictions
on the JWC’s customers that are not imposed on Minneapolis customers, except in emergencies.
In the event the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources implements the Statewide Drought
Plan in response to low-flow conditions of the Mississippi River or drought conditions in the
Mississippi Headwaters watershed, Minneapolis and JWC shall implement appropriate water use
restrictions contained in their water supply plans with a goal of reducing water use to target goals
above January levels.
10. Indemnification by the JWC.
Except as to claims as to the quality of water prior to passing the points of connection for which
Minneapolis is to indemnify the JWC pursuant to Section 11, below, the JWC agrees to defend,
indemnify and save Minneapolis harmless from any and all claims or demands for damages arising
out of the JWC's operations or the actions or neglect of the JWC's officers, employees or agents,
Commented [BA(9]: If JWC desires to revise the
maximum daily volume limit of 21 MGal, the corresponding
surcharge rate will be reviewed.
relating to the transport, use or disposal of water supplied pursuant to this Agreement, or from
the use, installation, maintenance and repair of the JWC's facilities downstream from the points
of connection of the Minneapolis distribution system to the JWC distribution system as set forth
in this Agreement, and will assume the defense of any actions arising therefrom in which
Minneapolis is made party defendant. Minneapolis shall give the JWC prompt notice of any such
action. The foregoing indemnification, and any liability assumed by the JWC as a result thereof,
shall be subject to the limits of liability and other provisions set forth in Minnesota Statutes,
Chapter 466. Nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver of said limits of liability.
11. Indemnification by Minneapolis.
Minneapolis agrees to defend, indemnify and save the JWC harmless from any and all claims
based on the quality of the water supplied to the JWC by Minneapolis prior to passing the points
of connection, which arise from Minneapolis' operations or the actions or neglect of Minneapolis'
officers, employees or agents pursuant to this Agreement, or from the use, installation,
maintenance and repair of Minneapolis owned facilities inside or outside of Minneapolis or the
reading of Minneapolis' master meters in the JWC’s vaults as depicted in Exhibits 1 and 2 by
Minneapolis personnel, and will assume the defense of any actions arising therefrom in which the
JWC is made a party defendant. The JWC shall give Minneapolis prompt notice of such action.
Minneapolis shall not have any responsibility as to water quality problems or claims that relate to
the quality of water within the JWC when those problems or claims do not relate to the quality of
water at the time it was received by the JWC at the points of connection. The forgoing
indemnification, and any liability assumed by Minneapolis as a result thereof, shall be subject to
the limits of liability and other provisions set forth in Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 466. Nothing
herein shall be construed as a waiver of said limits of liability.
12. Amendment, Modification, or Waiver.

shall be valid or of any effect unless made in writing, signed by the party or parties to be bound
or their duly authorized representative, and specifying with particularity the extent and nature of

breach of this Agreement by the JWC, but no such termination or suspension shall be made
without one hundred eightysixty (60180) business days written notice, in the manner specified in
Section 14. The written notice shall identify the specific provisions of the Agreement that
Minneapolis alleges the JWC has violated, and the JWC shall have a reasonable opportunity to
correct any condition cited by Minneapolis as a cause for termination.
When necessary to make repairs to, or changes in, its lines or system, Minneapolis may, without
incurring any liability therefore, suspend service for such periods as may be reasonably necessary
Commented [RK10]: Can we make this 6 months? If
service is cancelled or suspended, the JWC would need
some time to figure out other options and implement,.
Commented [BA(11R10]: Yes, that’s reasonable, edit
made.
to make the repairs or changes. Unless such repairs or changes are due to an emergency,
Minneapolis agrees to provide the JWC with reasonable advance notice of the suspension in service
and the repairs and changes to be made, and to cooperate with the JWC to adjust the daily delivery
schedule in anticipation of the suspension of service. Minneapolis shall not incur liability for
interruptions in service which result from its inability to secure processing materials, breakdown
or damage to processing, pumping, transmission or distribution facilities, acts of war, sabotage,
work stoppage, labor disruptions or any other conditions or circumstances beyond Minneapolis’s
reasonable ability to control.
The JWC shall have the right to terminate potable water service from Minneapolis for any default
or breach of this Agreement by Minneapolis, but no such termination or suspension shall be made
without sixty (60) business days written notice, in the manner specified in Section 14. The written
notice shall identify the specific provisions of the Agreement that the JWC alleges Minneapolis
