Local Water Supply Plan Template —December 8, 2015 <br />Table 26. Strategies and timeframe to reduce institutional, commercial, industrial, and agricultural and non -revenue use <br />demand <br />Strategy to reduce total business, industry, agricultural demand <br />Timeframe for completing work <br />2 Conduct a facility water use audit for both indoor and <br />outdoor use, including system components <br />Annually <br />0 Install enhanced meters capable of automated readings <br />to detect spikes in consumption <br />On -going <br />❑ Compare facility water use to related industry <br />benchmarks, if available (e.g., meat processing, dairy, <br />fruit and vegetable, beverage, textiles, paper/pulp, <br />metals, technology, petroleum refining etc.), <br />0 Install water conservation fixtures and appliances or <br />change processes to conserve water <br />On -going <br />0 Repair leaking system components (e.g., pipes, valves) <br />On -going <br />0 Investigate the reuse of reclaimed water (e.g., <br />stormwater, wastewater effluent, process wastewater, etc.) <br />On -going <br />0 Reduce outdoor water use at City -owned properties <br />3-6 years <br />0 Train employees how to conserve water <br />On -going: Include for new employee training <br />0 Implement a notification system to inform non- <br />residential customers when water availability conditions <br />change. <br />On -going <br />❑ [Rainwater catchment systems intended to supply uses <br />such as water closets, urinals, trap primers for floor <br />drains and floor sinks, industrial processes, water <br />features, vehicle washing facilities, cooling tower <br />makeup, and similar uses shall be approved by the <br />commissioner. Proposed plumbing code 4714.1702.1 <br />http://www.dli.mn.gov/PDF/docket/4714rule.pdf <br />❑ Describe other plans: <br />Objective 4: Achieve a Decreasing Trend in Total Per Capita Demand <br />Include as Appendix 8 one graph showing total per capita water demand for each customer category <br />(i.e., residential, institutional, commercial, industrial) from 2005-2014 and add the calculated/estimated <br />linear trend for the next 10 years. <br />Describe the trend for each customer category; explain the reason(s) for the trends, and where trends <br />are increasing. <br />For each customer category, there were no obvious trends seen in water usage. The fluctuations that <br />are shown in the plot can be attributed to seasonal temperature fluctuations. The projected total per <br />capita water demands shows a decreasing trend from 2015 to 2025. <br />Objective 5: Reduce Peak Day Demand so that the Ratio of Average Maximum day to the <br />Average Day is less than 2.6 <br />Is the ratio of average 2005-2014 maximum day demand to average 2005-2014 average day demand <br />reported in Table 2 more than 2.6? 0 Yes ❑ No <br />35 <br />
