Stout Group Water Study, 2022-01-27, TM ADD1Stout Group Drinking Water Study 2 KA #221223 Table 1 - Estimated Drinking Water Demands Parcel South of Township Rd Parcel North of Township Rd Estimated Household Demand (unchanged): Max Day Demand (MDD), gpm 0.37 Peak Hour Demand (PHD), gpm 0.49 Fire Flow, gpm 1,500 Nodes 17 15 Original Revised Original Revised Dwellings 800 495 400 221 MDD Per Node, gpm 17.4 10.8 9.9 5.5 PHD Per Node, gpm 23.1 14.3 13.1 7.2 Total MDD, gpm 296 183 148 82 Total PHD, gpm 392 243 196 108 *gpm = gallons per minute This development represents a total additional water system demand of 265 gpm MDD (down from 444 gpm in the original memo) and 351 gpm PHD (down from 588 gpm) between the two parcels. Well 10 was modeled as being offline in order to satisfy the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) requirement that pressure be met with any pump offline. The Well 13 facility currently under construction was shown online with two pumps installed. 3.0 RESULTS These changes to demand had negligible impact to the performance of the system during both MDD plus fire flow conditions and PHD. The model shows that this subdivision can be provided with water such that state requirements for MDD and PHD pressures are met, so long as previous distribution line size recommendations are followed, good interconnection is provided through the subdivision’s distribution network, and dead-end lines are avoided. The new proposed development represents 351 gpm or 15% of Well 13’s original 2,400 gpm capacity; at full Well 13 facility buildout, this would be 7% of the total 4,800 gpm.
