mately 866. There has been only 4 major building permits issued for
this area since January of 1977, 3 for single family dwellings dnd one
for a small commercial building. Development in this area is limited
mainly because of poor existing uti,l ities and the type of lot divi-
sions that exist. Lot sizes are mostly 75 to 85 feet of frontage and
250 to 430 feet of depth. The lots are back to back thus, no access
is available for development.

The per capita water use rates shown in Table 7 are determined using a
present population of 866 persons as estimated previously.

TABLE 7

PER CAPITA WATER CONSUMPTION

Max Hour = 924 gpcd (gallons per capita per day)
Max Day = 346 gpcd
Avg Day = 104 gpcd
Avg Weekly = 728 gallons per capita per week
Avg Monthly = 3,150 gallons per capita per month

Kelton Heights Water District is within the Bancroft Fire Protection
District and must meet the fire districts requirements including:
1) Minimum fire flow of 500 gpm @ I-hour duration and 2) Minimum resid-
ual pressure of 20 pounds per square inch. A fi re flow of 750 gpm
for 2-hours duration is suggested by the fi re department.

Required Fire Flows can be estimated using "Guide for Determination of
Required Fire Flows," published by Insurance Services Office. For
groupi ngs of I-family and small 2-family dwell i ngs not exceedi ng over
two stories in height a short method using exposure distances can be
applied. For exposured distances of 31' to 100' the suggested required
flow is 750-1000 gpm. A minimum residual water pressure of 20 psi is
required and required fire flow duration is 2-hours for flows of 2,500
gpm and less.
