The document is the agenda for a City Council workshop on March 10th, 2016 to discuss the City of College Station's Water Master Plan Update. It includes population projections showing growth through 2024 and buildout in 2052, as well as water demand projections on an annual and max day basis. It discusses water system analyses conducted using a water model to predict demands. It recommends a new lower pressure plane to improve water pressures and quality, including constructing a new elevated tank and pressure reducing valves. The capital improvements plan identifies both capacity driven projects and renewal projects needed for the water system.

6. Water Demand Projections - ANNUAL

7. Water Demand Projections – MAX DAY

8. Water Model Development
• Allows us to predict water demand under future development
• Model updated based on GIS data
• 24-hour extended period simulation calibration
• Field pressure testing
• Very good calibration results

9. New Lower Pressure Plane
• New Lower Pressure Plane (LPP) is recommended to:
– Decrease excessive high pressures in existing system
– Reduce high water age that leads to water quality issues
– Improve existing system elevated tank operation
• Projects required for LPP:
– 3.0 MG elevated tank
– Pressure reducing valves
– Pipelines along eastside of SH 6
