Analysis of available supply from the Cape Fear River is currently still ongoing. The results from this analysis will establish PWC's total available water supply and in turn determine its future water supply deficiencies. Until this analysis is completed, the available water supply information shown in this 2002 plan is preliminary and subject to change


An 85.8 mgd estimate of PWC's available supply was presented in DWR's October 2001 Round Three Jordan Lake water supply allocation recommendations and in DWR's March 2002 draft Cape Fear River Basin Water Supply Plan. (PWC would like to note that DWR's estimate relies on a 7Q10 estimate which appeared too high to us based on recent USGS analysis.)

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 65 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?   

Analysis of available supply from the Cape Fear River is currently still ongoing. The results from this analysis will establish PWC's total available water supply and in turn determine its future water supply deficiencies.

Until this analysis is completed, the available water supply from the Cape Fear River shown in this 2002 plan is preliminary and subject to change.

An 85.8 mgd estimate of PWC's available supply was presented in DWR's October 2001 Round Three Jordan Lake water supply allocation recommendations and in DWR's March 2002 draft Cape Fear River Basin Water Supply Plan. (PWC would like to note that DWR's estimate relies on a 7Q10 estimate which appeared too high to us based on recent USGS analysis.)

Some clarification on the debate between PWC and the State on the issue of PWC's available water supply follows: We have previously argued to the State that, for run-of-river intakes, the use of average demand is inappropriate when comparing demand to available supply. PWC's seasonal demands will be much higher than its average annual demand forecasts. Based on PWC operating records for five years (January 1997 through December 2001), we calculated maximum monthly and weekly demand factors were 1.26 and 1.44, respectively. Seasonal demand peaks are critical for run-of river intakes, especially to the degree that those demand peaks may coincide with reduced flow levels below Jordan Lake. If one accepts DWR's available supply estimate of 85.8 mgd, PWC argues that it would be in a deficit situation before 2030 since our projected maximum weekly demand for 2030 would be 93.3 mgd (i.e., 64.8 mgd average 2030 demand x 1.44 maximum weekly demand factor).

Untill the Cape Fear River model is completed by the State of NC, this analysis and future water supply need predictions cannot be made by PWC.

Additional Information

Has this system participated in regional water supply or water use planning?  Yes

What major water supply reports or studies were used for planning?  Draft Technical Memorandum entitled PWC Water Master Plan and Cumberland County Rural Water Study: Water Demands and Preliminary Rural Water District Evaluation (Camp Dresser and McKee, May 2001), Water Supply Master Plan (CDM, December 1995); Cumberland County Preliminary Sitting and Reservoir Feasibility Study (Geometrics Engineering, January 2000); Implementation of an Aquifer Storage and Recovery System, Preliminary Engineering Report (Hazen and Sawyer, May 1997); Site Feasibility Study for the P.O. Hoffer Raw Water Impoundment (CDM, July 1998).

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:   As discussed in the introductory letter of the draft Jordan Lake Supply Allocation Application, an analysis of available supply from the Cape Fear River is currently on going. The results from this analysis will establish PWC’s total available water supply, and, in turn, determine its future water supply deficiencies. Until this analysis is completed, predictions cannot be made on PWC’s future water supply needs.
