The district's fire protection relies on a fleet of fire <br /> <br />ii <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />trucks from the Evergreen Fire Department. The ability of the water <br /> <br />distribution system to fill these trucks in a short duration is limited. <br /> <br />Also, the points of refilling the fire fighting trucks from the distri- <br /> <br />bution system are limited to three points. <br /> <br />4. The entire distribution system is located within one pressure <br /> <br />zone. Pressures below 40 psi and above 50 psi are in existence in <br /> <br />the mater mains. <br /> <br />5. The spacing of valves in parts of the system is as great as <br /> <br />2,400 feet through high service areas. This leaves many residents <br /> <br />without water during the time it takes to locate and repair the broken <br /> <br />lines. <br /> <br />6. The existing three water tanks have experienced freezing <br /> <br />problems during the winter seasons. Tank No.3 has experienced the <br /> <br />most severe freezing problems and has been deformed structurally by <br /> <br />ice pressures near the top. <br /> <br />CURRENT STATUS <br /> <br />In December, 1977, the Brook Forest Water District submitted an <br /> <br />application to the Colorado ~Jater Conservation Board (C~jCB) requesting <br /> <br />its participation and assistance in solving the district's water supply <br /> <br />problems. The CWCB, in cooperation with the district, authorized an <br /> <br />engineering study to determine the feasibility of upgrading and <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />-3- <br />
