In response to this comment, Scott will provide adequate hand-washing facilities and water <br /> bottle filling services to its employees during the daily operations. Water purchases and water <br /> quality documentation will also be retained for the drinking water and hand-washing water <br /> services. <br /> 2.8.1 Waiver Request Justification (provided to Garfield County Public Health) <br /> Justification for this request is addressed per the requirements outlined in Section 4-203.M of <br /> the LUDC, as applicable. <br /> Overall, the Rifle Pit#1 property cannot be supplied potable water from City of Rifle or Town <br /> of Silt, as the property is more than a mile from the City of Rifle's water system and more than <br /> a mile from the Town of Silt's water system. Scott communicated with City of Rifle and Town <br /> of Silt on October 29, 2019, and confirmed that neither entity could serve the Rifle Pit Property <br /> without significant infrastructure improvements and line extensions. <br /> Because potable water is not available from City of Rifle or Town of Silt, Scott is requesting a <br /> waiver for the requirement to construct a permanent potable water supply and distribution <br /> system, and instead proposes to haul potable water onto the site to supply employees with <br /> potable water. <br /> Water for potable uses only: <br /> • Water supply at the Rifle Pit will be for potable uses only. <br /> Available water and ability to support potable drinking water only(no landscape or irrigation): <br /> • There will be no landscape irrigation on the Rifle Pit property. As described above, <br /> potable water is not available from City of Rifle or Town of Silt. Scott is therefore planning <br /> to truck potable water onto the site to supply employees with potable water. Scott will <br /> supply employees with an adequate amount of potable drinking water (estimated at 15 <br /> gallons per shift with five employees as described below). <br /> A minimum 4-hour pump test will be performed on the well. The results of the pump test will <br /> be analyzed and summarized in a report: <br /> • Because potable water will be trucked onsite and not provided by a well, there will not be <br /> a well for potable supply. Because there will not be a well, no pump test or pump test <br /> report is required. <br /> An estimate of the water supply requirements for the proposed development through build- <br /> out conditions: <br /> • The number of employees on-site will vary from three to a maximum of five, depending <br /> upon the phase of development. General Occupational Safety and Health Administration <br /> (OSHA) requirements regarding potable drinking water do not specify a quantity, but <br /> State of California OSHA standards require each employee be provided with one quart <br /> of water per hour during each shift for drinking water, where potable water is not supplied <br /> by plumbing (State of California TBCCR 3395(c)). Hours of operation will be from 7 a.m. <br /> to 7 p.m. 5 days per week. For five employees on a shift,the potable water demand would <br /> be 15 gallons per shift, 75 gallons per week, and 3,900 gallons per year. <br /> A description of the physical source of water supply that will be used to serve the proposed <br /> development: <br /> 2-5 <br />
