Mayor and.. Council, City.of Gein Lake Municipal Water Supply Feaslbillty:Study October 13, 2021 Page 2 • Review of water availability: This will include- a review of the source and storage capacities of neighboring communities and their water appropriations.. Data collection and review with neighboring communities is anticipated to be performed via email_ It is anticipated that this effort will require one (1). meeting, which is proposed to be held virtually 1. Project kick-off meeting with City representatives and SEH staff to evaluate City needs, establish options to be explored for a municipal water supply, and collect needed materials and data. A model of proposed Gem Cake water distribution system options will be developed using WaterGEMS's', a pipe network program developed by Bentley®, to analyze pressures, flow rates, and fire flows for each municipal water supply option. Specifically, items will include: • Building a model with existing and proposed water distribution system piping, elevation data, and demand data. • Evaluation of proposed interconnections, pipes, and pipe sizing. Develop modeling results maps and figures comparing system pressures, I flows, and fire flows for each municipal water supply option, T as1 a • Water Syitoin CDs• s-b� uction anci Pliauirjg Analysis For each municipal water supply option the required system facilities will be evaluated. Specifically, items evaluated will include: • .Available land and street access. _ • Required facilities such as piping, service connections, valves, hydrants, and metering. • Probable costs of construction. This will include estimated probable costs of construction for the required improvements for each option. Estimated costs will be a Class 4 Feasibility Estimate as defined: by. AACE cost estimate classification system, with an expected accuracy range of - 30% to + 50% based on project definition (up to 15% complete design) level analysis. Task 4 — Feasibil1ty Study Rrport Following completion of the above tasks, an updated Municipal Water Supply Feasibility Study report will. be developed presenting the results of our exploration and analysis of a municipal water supply for the City of Gem Lake, It is anticipated that this effort will require two (2) meetings. with City representatives, which are proposed to be held at City Council meetings. 1. Presentation of Draft Municipal Water Supply Feasibility Study - SEH will present initial findings, answer questions; and gather Inputfrom the City Council, 2. Presentation of Final Municipal Water Supply Feasibility Study — SEH: will present the: finaI report to the City. Council, Prior to the second.meeting the SEH team will incorporate City input for the final report.
