Outlined <br />below is a scope of work and cost estimate to perform the Water Distribution System Modeling <br />that includes: <br />• Evaluation of the existing water system; <br />• Identification of existing water system deficiencies; <br />• Preparation of the proposed future trunk water system network; and <br />• Identification of future trunk water system capital improvements necessary to serve <br />future land use designations in accordance with the City's Comprehensive Plan. <br />We understand that the City of Lino Lakes is currently developing in accordance with the City's <br />comprehensive land use plan. To date, the City has been able to maintain their water system <br />effectively; however, as the City develops it is a goal to continue systematic water system <br />improvements that accommodate both the existing water system extents and the future water <br />system demands. The benefits of a water system model for the City of Lino Lakes include: <br />• The model will serve as a baseline for system performance as the City infrastructure <br />continues to age; <br />• The ability for the City to evaluate current operating conditions for the goal of operations <br />optimization; <br />• Trunk watermain sizing can be determined more accurately determined as the City <br />continues to reconstruct portions of the City and developed portions of the City which <br />may result is smaller pipe sizes in addition to the City's trunk system; and <br />• The feasibility and effect on the City of Lino Lakes' water system related to future <br />regional groundwater planning efforts via the MCES and the local Northeast Metro <br />Groundwater Working Group can be evaluated as the City's current and future water <br />system is a distributed well network. <br />St. Cloud • Minneapolis • St. Paul <br />Equal Opportunity Employer <br />wsbeng.com <br />
