FUTURE PER CAPITA DEMANDS <br />In order to arrive at future per capita demands, it becomes necessary to <br />determine a representative median demand for the past ten years. During this <br />period complete records are available. This will avoid beginning the future <br />projection from an abnormal year; such as an extremely wet or dry one. In <br />Exhibit No. 4, we have chosen a maximum day per capita usage median line <br />which is increasing 5 gpcd each year as previously discussed. <br />PROJECTED FUTURE WATER DEMANDS <br />All the information is now available to project the future water needs <br />of Loveland. The reader should keep firmly in mind that the following <br />criteria and assumptions are accepted in the derivation of the anticipated <br />water demands. <br />1. It is assumed that outside metered users shall be kept at a <br />constant number through restrictions and proper annexation <br />procedures. <br />2. All references to population refer to the population of <br />Loveland within its corporate limits. <br />3. Allowances have been made for anticipated increases in the per <br />capita demand of both inside and outside users at the rate of <br />2 gpcd on average days and 5 gpcd on maximum days. <br />4. The maximum hour demand has been based on 150% of the maximum <br />day demand. This figure was derived from spot checks by Water <br />Department personnel. <br />Table No. 4 and Exhibit No. 5 show the past and anticipated water <br />demands at population increments of 1,400 persons. <br />- 13 - <br />
