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 66 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?   Eastern Pines Water Corporation will continue implementing and strengthening our water conservation public education program.

What supplies other than the ones listed in future supplies are being considered to meet your future supply needs?   Eastern Pines Water Corporation plans to utilize banked water to meet future needs, and if needed, an additional allotment from NRWASA.

How does the water system intend to implement the demand management and supply planning components above?   Review and evaluate the current supply study and continue to update and implement as needed.

Additional Information

Has this system participated in regional water supply or water use planning?  Yes, Eastern Pines Water Corporation is a member of NRWASA (Neuse Regional Water and Sewer Authority).

What major water supply reports or studies were used for planning?  * Water Supply Study - Projected through 2020
* 2026 Hydraulic Model Upgrade

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:
