The pump meter was partially out for the year of 2024. There were only several months that it was working correctly. Flows for the months that were estimated was done by calculating what they would have averaged, when combined with the good readings. This would equal an average daily flow of .0380MGD reported by Shelby to have received from Fallston in 2023. The .0380 MGD reported by Shelby in its 2023 LWSP is consistent with flows reported by both Fallston and Shelby in previous LWSPs.

The purpose of the above chart is to show a general indication of how the long-term per capita water demand changes over time. The per capita water demand may actually be different than indicated due to seasonal populations and the accuracy of data submitted. Water systems that have calculated long-term per capita water demand based on a methodology that produces different results may submit their information in the notes field.

Your long-term water demand is 37 gallons per capita per day. What demand management practices do you plan to implement to reduce the per capita water demand (i.e. conduct regular water audits, implement a plumbing retrofit program, employ practices such as rainwater harvesting or reclaimed water)? If these practices are covered elsewhere in your plan, indicate where the practices are discussed here.    

Are there other demand management practices you will implement to reduce your future supply needs?   

What supplies other than the ones listed in future supplies are being considered to meet your future supply needs?   

How does the water system intend to implement the demand management and supply planning components above?   

Additional Information

Has this system participated in regional water supply or water use planning?  No

What major water supply reports or studies were used for planning?  

Please describe any other needs or issues regarding your water supply sources, any water system deficiencies or needed improvements (storage, treatment, etc.) or your ability to meet present and future water needs. Include both quantity and quality considerations, as well as financial, technical, managerial, permitting, and compliance issues:   In the month of December 2024. Cleveland county water assumed responsibility for the water system for the town of Fallston. Fallston state I.D. number has been dissolved and Cleveland has officially taken over the town of Fallston's water.
