Proposed Water Sources. Does your current CIP include the addition of new wells or intakes? ❑ Yes ® No If yes, list the number of new installations and projected water demands from each for the next ten years. Plans for new production wells must include the geologic source formation, well location, and proposed pumping capacity. Not yet in five -year plan, but expect one new well about year 2017 to Prairie du Chien/Jordan, 1000 gpm. Water Source Alternatives. If new water sources are being proposed, describe alternative sources that were considered and any possibilities of joint efforts with neighboring communities for development of supplies. Centerville would consider purchasing wholesale from Lino Lakes(water system interconnect). Lino Lakes doesn't appear to have adequate capacity given their fast community growth and they have been purchasing water from Blaine. Lino Lakes draws water from the same aquifer as Centerville. Surface water is not a practical alternative due to the high cost of processing. St. Pau; water is not a viable supply as they have only raw untreated water mains in the vicinity of Centerville. City Well #1 is in PDC aquifer. If necessary, this well could be drilled deeper. Preventative Maintenance. Long -term preventative programs and measures will help reduce the risk of emergency situations. Identify sections of the system that are prone to failure due to age, materials or other problems. This information should be used to prioritize capital improvements, preventative maintenance, and to determine the types of materials (pipes, valves, couplings, etc.) to have in stock to reduce repair time. Replace corroded bolts on gate valves and hydrants. Replace aging mains in conjunction with street projects. PART II. EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROCEDURES Water emergencies can occur as a result of vandalism, sabotage, accidental contamination, mechanical problems, power failures, drought, flooding, and other natural disasters. The purpose of emergency planning is to develop emergency response procedures and to identify actions needed to improve emergency preparedness. In the case of a municipality, these procedures should be in support of, and part of, an all- hazard emergency operations plan. If your community already has written procedures dealing with water emergencies we recommend that you use these guidelines to review and update existing procedures and water supply protection measures. Federal Emergency Response Plan Section 1433(b) of the Safe Drinking Water Act as amended by the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002 (Public Law 107 -188, Title IV — Drinking Water Security and Safety) requires community water suppliers serving over 3,300 people to prepare an Emergency Response Plan. Community water suppliers that have completed the Federal Emergency Response Plan and submitted the required certification to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency have satisfied Part II, Sections A, B, and C of these guidelines and need only provide the information below regarding the emergency response plan and source water protection plan and complete Sections D (Allocation and Demand Reduction Procedures), and E (Enforcement).
