<br />year 1991. Fire flow or water storage for fire protection is computed
<br />
<br />using the following equation:
<br />
<br />Flow in Gallons = 1020/1' (1 - 0.01 vI' )
<br />
<br />(where P is equal to population in thousands). The total recommended
<br />
<br />storage requirements are for the years 1976 through 1991 and are tabulated
<br />
<br />in Table VII-A.

<br />It .is shown by Table V1I-A that a storage facility of approximately
<br />
<br />.
<br />
<br />2,000,000 gallons will be required by the year 1991. A storage facility
<br />
<br />of this capacity should be constructed at the location as shown on Exhib-
<br />
<br />it C. This storage would not only se~ve the development North of the Eagle
<br />
<br />River, but would be connected with the town's present system to furnish
<br />
<br />water for the whole system. This again would provide water storage at the
<br />
<br />opposite end of the system from the primary supply.
<br />
<br />There are two ways in order for the town to get the full storage capac-
<br />
<br />ity of the new 200,000 gallon tank constructed just East of the cemetery:
<br />
<br />(1) with the installation of valves and a telemetering system (2) or the
