<br />If it is the intent of Centerville to rely on the interconnect to supply an amount of water <br />equal to or greater than the capacity of its largest well, upsizing Well #2 is not <br />necessarily needed. However, if the upsizing can provide a capacity of 1200 gpm, and <br />the interconnect could be guaranteed to supply the same, the City could actually <br />abandon well #1. <br /> <br />In summary: <br /> <br />· If the interconnect agreement can be revised to guarantee a minimum of 600 <br />gpm, the upsizing of well #2 is NOT needed; nor is a third well (even at full <br />build-out). <br /> <br />· If the interconnect agreement CANNOT be revised to guarantee a minimum <br />of 600 gpm, a third well will be needed regardless of whether or not well #2 is <br />upsized. <br /> <br />· If well #2 is upsized to 1200 gpm AND the interconnect agreement can be <br />revised to guarantee a minimum of 1200 gpm" well #1 could be abandoned. <br />Despite this fact, we would not recommend abandoning well #1 unless major <br />costs were associated with keeping it in service such as the addition of a <br />water treatment facility. <br /> <br />. Despite the fact that the upsizing of well #2 is not needed in some of these <br />scenarios, we would not discourage this work. These scenarios are analyzed <br />based on worst case circumstances. Upsizing the well will add value to your <br />water system in all other scenarios and is probably worth the relatively small <br />cost. <br /> <br />Page 2 of 3 <br /> <br />l <br />
