Wells are not used on a daily basis but are used intermittently to fill elevated tank. Pumping records are stored electronically and have been verified. The system only operates one well at a time. At certain times based on use, leaks, etc., we must process longer than 12 hours per day. We choose to operate on a selected well for the entire process run. Starting and stopping wells tend to stir up sediment in the well and cause fouling issues in the pre-treatment process and the start/stop process causing shifting in the membranes in the RO equipment which increases the possibility of an O-ring or brine seal failure. Being each well usually rests 2-3 days between use it is more favorable to extend the run on the well than risk equipment failure in the plant.

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 58 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 at this Time

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

How does the water system intend to implement the demand management and supply planning components above?   No plans at this time

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:
