Table 2 - Water Supply Limitations and Future Needs
Limitation and/or Future Need Yes No Comments on Limitation or Future Need How is Limitation or Future Need Being Addressed
System is in a designated critical water supply shortage area X
System experiences frequent water supply shortages and/or emergencies System has substantial nonrevenue water Experiencing high rates of population and demand growth X South Platte Basin identified in SWSI and State Water Plan as area with supply and storage gap
X
X District is near build-out
Planning substantial improvements or additions X
Increases to wastewater system capacity anticipated X
Need additional drought reserves X Planning major projects to increase water supply, storage, treatment capacity, and water distribution capacity
The answer could be yes in terms of flow and nutrient levels if treatment of Hwy. 85 corridor wastewater flows are added to the treatment stream
Drinking water quality issues
Aging infrastructure in need of repair
Issues with water pressure in portions of distribution system X X
X Selected wells, pumping equipment, treatment systems, and conveyance systems Increase supply through water acquisitions, leases, reuse, WISE, Chatfield Reallocation project, demand reductions, ASR, and regional cooperation
Chatfield Reallocation project ; WISE project; reuse study; water efficiency; regional ASR study; WTP utility study; new highcapacity pumping station and water transmission line; alluvial well field expansion study
WWTP utility study is in progress, which may include participation with Douglas County
Old wells, pumps, valves, lines, meters, and treatment systems are being upgraded and replaced as necessary
