Future Water Demands: The table below compares Average Day and Peak Day demands based on the DNR benchmarks used in the Water Emergency and Conservation Plan, the current average day rates and an assumed maximum future ultimate use used for this study. The ultimate population used in the study is 43,000. Site Selection: Three potential sites have been evaluated for the water treatment plant. Site #1 is in the southeast quadrant of the intersection of Birch Street and Centerville Road on City owned property, Site #2 is on school district owned land on the north side of Birch Street west of Timberwolf Trail, Site #3 is at well house #3 on the South Side of Birch Street west of 12th-Avenue. Site #3 was eliminated in this study due to the limited build -able area, adjacent wetlands, floodplain and county ditch. The attached feasibility study contains a map in the appendix showing the two potential sites. The two sites considered in this study were chosen because of there proximity to wells, adjacent trunk watermain, minimal wetland impacts, ample build -able space and land ownership. Soil borings were taken at each site to determine, structural foundation needs, water table depth, and the maximum depth of a future reservoir. Water Storage and Booster Pump Needs: The City of Lino Lakes currently has 2.0 million gallons of elevated storage. The ultimate storage based on the ultimate population of 43,000 is 3.3 million gallons. As the City grows and conservation measures are implemented consumption patterns may change or shift and ultimate storage needs may be reduced. Current standards based on the average day usage place the recommended ultimate storage at 4 million gallons. 3 • • • Average Day Peak Day Calculated using ultimate population, with DNR benchmarks for average day water use and the DNR average to peak ratio. 3.6 Million Gallons Per Day 9.4 Million Gallons Per Day Calculated using ultimate population, current average day rates, and DNR average to peak ratio. 4.3 Million Gallons Per Day 11.1 Million Gallons Per Day Assumed Maximum Future Ultimate Use for the Study 4.0 Million Gallons Per Day 10.4 Million Gallons Per Day Site Selection: Three potential sites have been evaluated for the water treatment plant.
