DRAFT 8 -17 -07 <br />Alternately, using the DNR benchmark of 75 gallons per capita per day for residential use <br />and then adding the estimated commercial, industrial, and institutional water use, the <br />average daily water demand would be 3.15 MGD for residential use and 0.45 MGD for <br />commercial, industrial, and institutional use which results in a total average day water <br />demand of 3.6 MGD. Then by applying the DNR benchmark for the maximum day to <br />average day ratio of 2.6 to 1, the future maximum day demand would be 9.4 MGD for the <br />City system. <br />Assuming that the DNR and Metropolitan Council policies regarding conservation and <br />efficient use of metro water supply resources are enforced, we estimate that the future <br />average day water demands for Lino Lakes will not exceed 4.0 MGD and that the future <br />maximum day water demand will be approximately 10.4 MGD. We believe that these water <br />demand projections provide a conservative estimate regarding the ultimate water demands <br />for the City of Lino Lakes based upon providing water service to approximately 42,000 <br />people. These ultimate water use calculations are shown in Table 2. <br />Table No. 2 <br />Ultimate Water Use Calculations <br />Water Treatment Plant Study 5 <br />13843.000 <br />Average Day <br />Peak Day <br />Calculated using ultimate population, with DNR <br />benchmarks for average day water use and the <br />DNR average to peak ratio. <br />3.6 MGD <br />9.4 MGD <br />Calculated using ultimate population, current <br />average day rates, and the DNR average to peak <br />ratio. <br />4.3 MGD <br />11.1 MGD <br />Assumed Maximum Future Ultimate Use for Study <br />4.0 MGD <br />10.4 MGD <br />Water Treatment Plant Study 5 <br />13843.000 <br />
