The purpose of this comparison is to give a <br />general indication of the extent of I/I in the region� <br />Based on the difference between average and dry weather flow, averaged over 2012-2016, the estimated amount of clearwater entering the <br />system is approximately 36,000 gallons per day� <br />The percent increase from dry weather to average annual flows in the City of Hugo was less than 10% in every year except for 2016. A slight <br />increasing trend is indicated by the metering data from the last five years; the City will continue to monitor this data to see whether or not this <br />trend continues� The City’s strategies, standards, and investments for reducing I/I are listed in the next section� <br />Table 11-12 Dry Weather Flow vs. Average Annual <br />Flow for Hugo Metershed <br />Year Dry Weather <br />Flow (MGD) <br />Average Annual <br />Flow (MGD) <br />Percent <br />Increase <br />2012 0�61 0�62 1�75% <br />2013 0�64 0�66 3�78% <br />2014 0�56 0�60 6�89% <br />2015 0�55 0�60 8�75% <br />2016 0�54 0�60 10�40%
