Local Water Supply Plan Template –December 8, 2015 13 Resource Type (Groundwater, Surface water, Interconnection) Resource Name MN Unique Well # or Intake ID Year Installed Capacity (Gallons per Minute) Well Depth (Feet) Status of Normal and Emergency Operations (active, inactive, emergency only, retail/wholesale interconnection)) Does this Source have a Dedicated Emergency Power Source? (Yes or No) Groundwater Jordan Aquifer Well 5 - 200524 1961 1,200 472 Active Yes Interconnect Roseville n/a 100,000 Emergency only No Limits on Emergency Interconnections Discuss any limitations on the use of the water sources (e.g. not to be operated simultaneously, limitations due to blending, aquifer recovery issues etc.) and the use of interconnections, including capacity limits or timing constraints (i.e. only 200 gallons per minute are available from the City of Prior Lake, and it is estimated to take 6 hours to establish the emergency connection). If there are no limitations, list none. There is not an official interconnection with the City of Minneapolis, only the adjacent fire hydrants are available in emergency situations. The interconnection with the City of Roseville only serves the southern portion of the City. D. Future Demand Projections – Key Metropolitan Council Benchmark Water Use Trends Use the data in Table 2 to describe trends in 1) population served; 2) total per capita water demand; 3) average daily demand; 4) maximum daily demand. Then explain the causes for upward or downward trends. For example, over the ten years has the average daily demand trended up or down? Why is this occurring? There is currently no trend seen in population served and a general decrease in total capita water demand, average daily demand, and maximum daily demand. Since the City is fully built out, population changes are not driving trends in water demand. It is likely that improved appliances, decrease in irrigation, general attitude towards conservation, rainfall and climate play a much larger role in water usage than other factors. Use the water use trend information discussed above to complete Table 7 with projected annual demand for the next ten years. Communities in the seven-county Twin Cities metropolitan area must also include projections for 2030 and 2040 as part of their local comprehensive planning. Projected demand should be consistent with trends evident in the historical data in Table 2, as discussed above. Projected demand should also reflect state demographer population projections and/or other planning projections.
