All water was purchased from Columbus County in 2024, Robeson County is now utilized as an emergency only source. The water from Columbus County is not currently metered, there is a project (24-001102R1) to install a meter that should be completed in 2025. The system reads its meters and provides that total to Columbus County for use and billing.

Boardman has never had a written contract with Columbus County for water purchase but instead have a verbal understanding to purchase water as needed. The same is true with Robeson County. In order to keep demand to supply ratio below 80% through 2050 as required, a contact amount of 0.0120 MGD is shown here for purchases from Columbus County.

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 39 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?   None

What supplies other than the ones listed in future supplies are being considered to meet your future supply needs?   None

How does the water system intend to implement the demand management and supply planning components above?   Boardman will need to negotiate a purchase agreement with Columbus County for an amount of water greater than the required amount projected prior to 2050. As a reminder the purchase amount shown is a placeholder, there is no current agreement in place with a contact maximum with Columbus County.

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:   None
