<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />PROBLEM <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Eagle's existing water system is at best marginal in its <br /> <br /> <br />ability to properly serve the existing town. with the additional <br /> <br /> <br />burden being placed on it by present and future growth (even under <br /> <br /> <br />low growth conditions) new facilities will be needed for diversion, <br /> <br /> <br />treatment, storage, and distribution of good quality potable water. <br /> <br />Present problems are as stated below: <br /> <br />1. High turbidity in Brush Creek, combined with an inappro- <br /> <br />priate treatment process, results in poor quality water, high <br /> <br />treatment costs, and consequently in high water rates (859 per <br /> <br />thousand gallons). <br /> <br />2. To ensure a dependable supply to existing users, 27.000 <br /> <br />linear feet of raw water transmission pipeline, which is leaky, <br /> <br />requires replacement (with a new line of enough capacity to <br /> <br />accommodate anticipated future demand). <br /> <br />3. Existing storage facilities are effectively limited to <br />200,000 gallons. Existing distribution facilities are old and <br />inadequately sized in most cases. Many of the existing fire <br /> <br />hydrants are on small diameter lines. All of these problems have <br /> <br />contributed to a very low degree of fire protection, which con- <br /> <br />tributes to higher fire insurance costs for residents. <br /> <br />4. Long transmission lines (9 miles), cOmbined with periods <br /> <br />of high turbidity and consequent treatment problems, mean that <br /> <br />more storage and an auxiliary water source should be developed in <br /> <br />-2- <br />
