Local Water Supply Plan—Centerville <br /> Objective 4:Achieve a Decreasing Trend in Total Per Capita Demand <br /> Include as Appendix 8 one graph showing total per capita water demand for each customer category <br /> (i.e., residential, institutional, commercial, industrial)from 2005-2014 and add the calculated/estimated <br /> linear trend for the next 10 years. <br /> Describe the trend for each customer category; explain the reason(s)for the trends, and where trends <br /> are increasing. <br /> Centerville has historically had low per capita water demands and all trends are decreasing. Total per <br /> capita water demand is decreasing; from approximately 90 gpcd in 2005 — 2011 to 70 gpcd in 2014 — <br /> 2015. The total per capita water demand average was approximately 83 gpcd between 2010 and 2015. <br /> Water use in 2012 and 2013 was higher due to significant bulk water sales for residential development. <br /> Residential per capita water is trended down during the last 11 years and has not exceeded 75 gpcd <br /> since 2009. Residential per capita water demand averaged 68 gpcd in 2010—2015. Per Capita demand <br /> in 2014 and 2015 was only 59 gpcd. <br /> Commercial and Institutional water sales continue to be a small portion of the City's water use. <br /> Commercial and Institutional per capita water use is trending downward from a maximum of 14 gpcd in <br /> 2006.The nonresidential per capita water demand use was approximately 6.7 gpcd in 2010—2015 <br /> Objective 5: Reduce Peak Day Demand so that the Ratio of Average Maximum day to the <br /> Average Day is less than 2.6 <br /> Is the ratio of average 2005-2014 maximum day demand to average 2005-2014 average day demand <br /> reported in Table 2 more than 2.6? Q Yes ❑ No <br /> Calculate a ten year average (2005—2014) of the ratio of maximum day demand to average day <br /> demand: 2.79 . The 2010—2015 average ratio is : 2.62 . <br /> The position of the DNR has been that a peak day/average day ratio that is above 2.6 for in summer <br /> indicates that the water being used for irrigation by the residents in a community is too large and that <br /> efforts should be made to reduce the peak day use by the community. <br /> It should be noted that by reducing the peak day use, communities can also reduce the amount of <br /> infrastructure that is required to meet the peak day use. This infrastructure includes new wells, new <br /> water towers which can be costly items. <br /> Objective 6: Implement a Conservation Water Rate Structure and/or a Uniform Rate <br /> Structure with a Water Conservation Program <br /> Water Conservation Program <br /> Municipal water suppliers serving over 1,000 people are required to adopt demand reduction measures <br /> that include a conservation rate structure, or a uniform rate structure with a conservation program that <br /> achieves demand reduction. These measures must achieve demand reduction in ways that reduce <br /> 27 <br /> 72 <br />
