<br />2002 and design years, 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2025. The Engineer will base these projections on <br />population projections and historical water use characteristics of the San Marcos water distribution <br />system. The Engineer will include consideration of future water conservation efforts in this task. <br />The Engineer will determine the distribution of future demands within the service area and how <br />those demands are placed in the hydraulic model. The Engineer will summarize the water demand <br />projections and the procedures used in determining the future demands in a memorandum to be <br />reviewed by the City. <br /> <br />1.6 TASK 5 - WATER SUPPLY AND TREA TMENT FACILITIES <br /> <br />The Engineer will: <br /> <br />1.6.1 Evaluate reports and data provided by the City regarding the surface water treatment plant <br />and the well and storage facilities within the City. The Engineer will provide recommendations as <br />to water supply requirements. <br /> <br />1.6.2 Based on reports and data provided by the City, determine the adequacy of the existing <br />treatment facility to meet projected water demands. The Engineer will coordinate with GBRA to <br />determine its anticipated needs. The Engineer will evaluate the anticipated scheduling for capacity <br />expansions. The City is also considering installation of variable speed drives at the pumps at the <br />water plant and other locations to provide increased flexibility. The Engineer will review and provide <br />recommendations. <br /> <br />1.6.3 Provide recommendations to maximize the usage of water from the surface water treatment <br />plant. <br /> <br />1.604 Evaluate alternatives to route groundwater resources under the influence of surface water to <br />the surface water treatment plant for treatment. <br /> <br />1.7 TASK 6 - WATER DISTRIBUTION FACILITIES <br /> <br />The Engineer will: <br /> <br />1.7.1 Review the configuration of the distribution system and the boundaries of each service level <br />(pressure zone) and make recommendations for any modifications. <br /> <br />1.7.2 Evaluate and determine the adequacy of existing pumping, storage, pressure station and <br />distribution components, and report any deficiencies and recommend corrective measures (operating <br />and/or capital). The City will provide inspection reports on existing tanks. As part of this task, the <br />Engineer will evaluate and provide recommendations regarding maximizing the use of surface water <br />to provide for water system demands. <br /> <br />1.7.3 Evaluate the relationship between existing pumping and storage facilities, report on the <br />adequacy of this relationship and recommend corrective measures (operating and/or capital).
