<br />Peak Day Demand <br /> <br />Chasteen's Grove Water Treatment Plant was built with a capacity of 30 million gallons <br />per day to satisfy peak daily flows. Peak day water use has gradually been rising as growth <br />occurs, but fluctuates according to weather conditions. <br /> <br />The maximum day ratio is calculated as the ratio between the amount of water exiting the <br />treatment plant on the highest use day to the average day use for a given year. Loveland's <br />peak day generally occurs during July, when outdoor watering is at a high. Between 1990 <br />and 1995, the maximum day ratio has varied between 2.3 and 3.1. <br /> <br />In 1992, the treatment plant reached its highest peak day demand, reaching 21.1 million <br />gallons, or 70 percent of the plant's design capacity. This was due to unusually hot weather, <br />when lawns were getting a lot of water, At the same time, a massive hydrant flushing effort <br />was occurring. When the plant reaches 85 percent of capacity, design for expansion will be- <br />gin. In 1995, peak day demand reached 20.3 million gallons. <br /> <br />\ <br />-1 <br />I <br /> <br />Table 17.
