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.    No Changes

Are there other demand management practices you will implement to reduce your future supply needs?   No Change

What supplies other than the ones listed in future supplies are being considered to meet your future supply needs?   No Change

How does the water system intend to implement the demand management and supply planning components above?   No Change

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?  For the preparation of the LWSP we used both internet historical data of population in Louisburg along with several Departments contribution of their historical records to fulfill the obligations of information required for the LWSP.

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:   The town is aware of the original 1910 abandoned Clear-well that was taken out of commission in 1996-98 due to severe leakage and was recommended to be demolished and replace with a new Clear-well within the next 5-10 years. Also, at the river there is a large amount of sand infiltration that has to be manually cleaned and pumped out monthly; therefore, a possible screening system to help prevent sand infiltration into the Raw Water Pump Wells will likely be looked into and installed within the next 5-10 as well.
