02/19/2021 - Public Hearing Recordings from February 2021


Background:

  • The City of Wichita (City) has the state's only active Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) project. The project was developed and approved in two phases.
  • On March 12, 2018, the City forwarded a detailed proposal for changes to the conditions associated with its existing permits for Phase II of the project. The City also submitted a series of new applications which have subsequently been withdrawn.
  • The City's proposal was clarified and modified in minor ways via an initial review process during April and May 2018.
  • On June 28, 2018, a public informational meeting regarding the proposed changes was held at the Halstead High School Auditorium.
  • Beginning on July 19, 2018, a series of pre-hearing conferences were held to set a date, time and location for the formal hearing; to discuss procedures for the hearing; to set any necessary deadlines; and to discuss any other appropriate matters.
  • Orders resulting from the pre-hearing conferences and public hearing are available below in the table "Hearing Officer Notices, Orders, Etc." The filings by the parties are included in the table "Parties' Motions, Etc."
  • Information related to the City's existing ASR permits is available below.
  • A public comment hearing on Wichita's proposed modifications to Phase II of its ASR project was held on December 11, 2018 (transcript).
  • On March 19, 2019, Chief Engineer Barfield delegated to Constance (Connie) Owen the authority to serve as the presiding officer in this matter and postponed the formal phase of the public hearing previously scheduled for March 26, 2019. Presiding Officer Owen will conduct a hearing among the formal parties and provide written recommendation to the Chief Engineer based on the record after the hearing is complete.
  • The formal phase of the public hearing began in Halstead, KS on December 10, 2019 continued into 2021.
