The max day use cannot be provided because the master meters between Sanford and the Chatham East system are not read every day. A comparison of the average use in 2002 (0.212 MGD) against the maximum month use (0.368 in October 2002) provides a peakign factor of just under 1.75.

Chatham County North 03-19-126 Surface 0.7500 2005 Regular

The Chatham County North water system includes the Jordan Lake Water Treatment Plant. If the bond referendum is passed in 2004 the County will complete expansion projects that will interconnect all of the existing Chatham County water systems. This will allow the transfer of water from the Jordan Lake WTP to the Chatham Southwest system. It is possible that all Chatham County systems will be consolidated under one PWSID, however this submittal assumes each system will continue to operate independently. The Jordan Lake WTP is being high-rated to 4.0 MGD in 2004 and expanded to 6.0 MGD by 2008.

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 49 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:
