SECTION I - BACKGROUND INFORMATION • I-1 General College View Municipal Utility District (MUD) is located in Harris County in the western portion of the City of La Porte, Texas. The District is bounded on the north by the La Porte - Spencer Highway, on the east by Spenwick MUD, on the south by Fairmont Parkway, and on the west by San Jacinto College. The area was recently annexed by formal ordinance by the City of La Porte on December 28, 1983. After a 90-day period from this date, in which time the District is to complete any remaining business, the District will be dissolved. The College View MUD area encompasses approximately 477 • acres. Existing development consists of approximately 600 single-family residential units and six commercial establish- ments. Construction of approximately 200 homes within the District is planned for the next two years. Existing Wastewater Treatment Facilities The District's existing sewage treatment facility consists of a prefabricated, activated sludge treatment plant which was originally designed for 400,000 gallons per day (gpd). Because the State design criteria were revised in 1981, and more strin- gent effluent requirements are now imposed by the Texas Department of Water Resources (TDWR) on this plant, its effective capacity has been reduced substantially. • The major deficiency of this facility is that it was not designed to meet the stringent effluent standards of 5 mg/1 TumerCdiie~Braclen Inc.
