8 City of Little Rock, Arkansas, to seek approval to issue revenue bonds for capital improvements to Lit -
9 tle Rock Wastewater Utility facilities including, but not limited to, the Little Maumelle Wastewater
10 Treatment Plant; and,
1 1 WHEREAS, after considerable discussion and review it has been decided to place in operation a
12 step -feed activated sludge treatment system at the Little Maumelle Wastewater Treatment Plant, but
13 this system does not preclude the use of an additional filter system; and,
14 WHEREAS, it is the desire of the Board of Directors of the City of Little Rock, Arkansas, to assure
15 that this treatment facility not only meets current state and federal environmental requirements, but
16 that it is able to meet future requirements of this nature;

20 Treatment Plant include, in addition to the step -feed activated sludge treatment methodology, an ap-

22 of discharge that would result from a membrane bioreactor system.
23 Section 2. The Board of Directors desires that the cost of a filter system be included in the pro -
24 posed revenue bond issue, and resulting rate structure, that is to be presented to the Board of Direc-
25 tors for consideration on November 21, 2006.
