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 56 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.    With the new AMR's we are able to monitor customer leaks and respond to the customers much quicker. Also, we have been proactive in getting the commercial AMR's changed out.

Are there other demand management practices you will implement to reduce your future supply needs?   Continuing to replace older water lines in our system.

What supplies other than the ones listed in future supplies are being considered to meet your future supply needs?   The sanitary district has been in contact with property owners about possible well sites.

How does the water system intend to implement the demand management and supply planning components above?   We continue to update our CIP and a Board of Directors who are engaged with future planning.

Additional Information

Has this system participated in regional water supply or water use planning?  Yes, MVSD and all other water systems in Haywood County are continuing with on going meetings to look at future Source Water needs and reliability of existing interconnections.

What major water supply reports or studies were used for planning?  MVSD stream studies by Fish and Wildlife Association and McGuill Associates study of local water supplies

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:   MVSD continues to work on acquiring property to protect water shed for the MVSD. Currently the District ownes 7458 acres in the water shed. We will continue to build relaionships with property owners within the water shed to preserve the land and water.
