measures, allows consumers to see first hand their water use and compare it to the average. <br />c Analyze consumer feedback through surveys and contact to identify reasons for high per <br />capita usage. <br />2. Offer incentive programs including. <br />a. Leaking faucet repair <br />b. Offer soil moisture meters and rain gages for monitoring of sprinkling. <br />Total Per Capita Demand: From Table 1, is the trend in overall per capita demand over the past <br />10 years C increasing or ® decreasing? If total GPCD is increasing, describe the goals to <br />lower overall per capita demand or explain the reasons for the increase. <br />The per capita demand average for the last 10 years was 89.9. Demand is irrigation related as <br />three years the demand was less than 75gpcd for residential use. Prepare a time of day lawn <br />watering ordinances that restricts lawn watering during the daytime hours of 10am to 6pm. Copy <br />of Ordinance to follow. <br />Peak Demands (calculate average ratio for last five years using data from Table 1) <br />Average maximum day to average day ratio 1 3.4 <br />If peak demands exceed a ratio of 2.6 describe the goals for lowering peak demands. <br />Phase 1 <br />1. Conduct evaluation of the Lino Lakes water rate structure. <br />2. Revise water rate structure to encourage conservation. <br />3. Prepare a time of day lawn watering ordinance that restricts lawn watering during the midday <br />hours of loam to 6pm. <br />B. Water Conservation Programs. Describe all short-term conservation measures that are <br />available for use in an emergency and long -term measures to improve water use efficiencies <br />for each of the six conservation program elements listed below. Short-term demand reduction <br />measures must be included in the emergency response procedures and must be in support of, <br />and part of, a community all - hazard emergency operation plan. <br />1. Metering. The American Water Works Association (AWWA) recommends that every <br />water utility meter all water taken into its system and all water distributed from its system <br />at its customer's point of service. An effective metering program relies upon periodic <br />performance testing, repair, repair and maintenance of all meters. AWWA also <br />recommends that utilities conduct regular water audits to ensure accountability. <br />Complete Table 10 (A) regarding the number and maintenance of customer meters. <br />TABLE 10 (A) Customer Meters <br />14 <br />Number of <br />Connections <br />Number of <br />Metered <br />Connections <br />Meter testing <br />schedule <br />(years) <br />Average age /meter <br />replacement schedule (years) <br />Residential <br />4,184 <br />4,184 <br />As Needed <br />Replaced at 1,000,000 gallons <br />Institutional <br />19 <br />19 <br />Replaced at 10,000.000 <br />14 <br />
