• The possibility of developing a centralized water distribution system within Gem <br />Lake will be considered. The system might either be developed based on a well <br />supply within Gem Lake or by attachments to the Vadnais Heights, White Bear Lake <br />or White Bear Township systems. <br />• Water service should be extended to each targeted area at the same time and in the <br />same priorities as the sanitary sewerage service, in order to minimize street <br />reconstruction and traffic disruption. <br />• The possibility of connecting only the commercial area of Gem Lake to the Vadnais <br />Heights, White Bear Lake, or White Bear Township water distribution systems will <br />be explored. <br />• The adoption of a mandatory water quality testing program for private wells will be <br />considered. <br />• An educational program promoting water conservation measures within the City of <br />Gem Lake will be developed. <br />• An emergency preparedness plan with regard to the water supply will be developed, <br />or the City will adopt the policy of the water supplier. <br />Proposed Water Supply System <br />Figure 8 - Water Supply Comprehensive Plan on the following page shows the City's <br />proposed water supply system, which includes supply from all three of the <br />surrounding communities. Due to the differences in the treatment systems performed <br />by the three communities, no two systems can be inter -connected. Therefore the City <br />water supply consists of three separate water main loops through the City. <br />E8.0 <br />water supply system plan I page 50 <br />
