R309-510-7. Source Sizing

  (1) Peak Day Demand and Average Yearly Demand.

  Sources shall legally and physically meet water demands under two conditions:

  (a) The water system's source capacity shall be able to meet the anticipated water demand on the day of highest water consumption, which is the peak day demand.

  (b) The water system's source capacity shall also be able to provide one year's supply of water, which is the average yearly demand.

  (2) Indoor Water Use.

  Tables 510-1 and 510-2 shall be used as the minimum sizing requirements for peak day demand and average yearly demand for indoor water use unless a public water system has obtained a reduction per R309-510-5.

     NOTES FOR TABLE 510-1:

     Note 1. Average yearly demand shall be calculated by

multiplying the number of days in the designated water system

operating period by the peak day demand unless a reduction has

been granted in accordance with R309-510-5.

     Note 2. To be considered a Recreational Home Development

(i.e., developments with limited water use) as listed in Table

510-1, dwellings shall not have more than 8 plumbing fixture

units,in accordance with the state-adopted plumbing code, and

shall not be larger than 1,000 square feet. For a new

not-yet-constructed development to be considered as a

development with limited water use, it must have enforceable

restrictions in place that are enforced by the water system or

local authority and are accepted by the Director.

     NOTES FOR TABLE 510-2:

     Note 1. When more than one use will occur, the multiple

uses shall be considered in determining total demand. Small

industrial plants maintaining a cafeteria or showers and club

houses or motels maintaining swimming pools or laundries are

typical examples of multiple uses. Uses other than those listed

above shall be considered in relation to established demands

from known or similar installations.

     Note 2. Source capacity must at least equal the peak day

demand of the system. Determine this by assuming the facility

is used to its maximum, e.g., the physical capacity of the

facility.

     Note 3. To determine the average day demand for

establishments listed in Table 510-2, divide the peak day

demand by 2, unless alternative data are accepted by the

Director.

     Note 4. Or Peak Day Demand = 20 x (Water Area (ft²)/30) +

Deck Area (ft²)

  (3) Irrigation Use.

  If a water system provides water for irrigation, Table 510-3 shall be used to determine the peak day demand and average yearly demand for irrigation water use. The following procedure shall be used:

  (a) Determine the location of the water system on the map entitled Irrigated Crop Consumptive Use Zones and Normal Annual Effective Precipitation, Utah as prepared by the Soil Conservation Service (available from the Division). Find the numbered zone, one through six, in which the water system is located (if located in an area described "non-arable" find nearest numbered zone).

  (b) Determine the net number of acres which may be irrigated.

  (c) Refer to Table 510-3, which assumes direct application of water to vegetation, to determine peak day demand and average yearly demand for irrigation use.

  (d) Consider water losses due to factors such as evaporation, irrigation delivery method, overwatering, pipe leaks, etc. Apply a safety factor to the irrigation demand in the design accordingly.

   5 4.52 2.69

   6 4.90 3.26

     NOTE FOR TABLE 510-3:

     Note 1. The average yearly demand for irrigation water

use (in acre-feet per irrigated acre) is based on 213 days of

irrigation, e.g., April 1 to October 31.

  (4) Variations in Source Yield.

  (a) Water systems shall consider that flow from sources may vary seasonally and yearly. Where flow varies, the number of service connections supported by a source shall be based on the minimum seasonal flow rate compared to the corresponding seasonal demand.

  (b) Where source capacity is limited by the capacity of treatment facilities, the maximum number of service connections shall be determined using the treatment plant design capacity instead of the source capacity.
