Local Water Supply Plan Template –July 8, 2016 <br /> <br />32 <br /> <br />For unmetered systems, describe any plans to install meters or replace current meters with advanced <br />technology meters. Provide an estimate of the cost to implement the plan and the projected water <br />savings from implementing the plan. <br />None, the entire system is metered. <br />Table 24.

Yes ☐ No ☒ <br />What was your 2010 – 2015 five-year average residential per capita water demand? 45.63 <br />gallons/person/day <br />Describe the water use trend over that timeframe: <br />Residential per capita water use did not show a strong trend from 2005-2012, but it has been decreasing steadily <br />since 2012. At no time in the last ten years was the residential per capita water use higher than the DNR’s <br />recommended maximum of 75 gallons per capita per day. <br /> <br />Complete Table 25 by checking which strategies you will use to continue reducing residential per capita <br />demand and project a likely timeframe for completing each checked strategy (Select all that apply and <br />add rows for additional strategies): <br />Table 25.
