Intercommunity Water Supply <br />September 26, 2025 <br />Page 2 <br /> The WaterCAD computer model of the Lino Lakes water distribution system predicts that <br />the max day demand available fire flows (AFF) at a residual pressure of 20 psi would <br />decrease as follows if served by Centerville alone: <br />Watermark Area Lino Lakes AFF Centerville AFF <br />Single Family 2,000-5,300 gpm 1,100-1,500 gpm <br />Townhomes 3,000-5,500 gpm 1,200-1,300 gpm <br /> The City of Centerville would need to demonstrate that it can provide additional fire flow <br />satisfactory to the Lino Lakes Fire Department, and that its storage capacity and trunk <br />watermains can satisfy fire flow to both the Centerville system and the temporary <br />Watermark service area. <br /> The City of Centerville would need to demonstrate that its water quality is comparable to <br />that of the City of Lino Lakes and that this large volume of water would not have <br />significantly different water quality that could cause corrosion, scaling, or more serious <br />adverse effects. In particular, manganese concentrations would need to be shown to be <br />less than the Minnesota Department of Health guidance value for infants of 0.1 mg/L. <br /> The City of Centerville would need to notify residents in the temporary Watermark service <br />area and respond to any resident concerns. <br /> The City of Lino Lakes will be starting up its new Water Treatment Plant (WTP) in the fall <br />of 2026. Due to the complexity of WTP startup sequencing and calibration, this temporary <br />water supply cannot overlap with the WTP startup schedule. <br />M:\\026546-000\\Water - Wastewater\\Data\\TECH MEMO Lino Lakes Centerville Intercommunity Water.docx <br />25 <br /> <br />
