Mr. Milton Pavao, Manager <br /> Februazy 10, 2004 <br /> Page 2 <br /> However, you would entertain the thought of using the applicant's well as a <br /> possible "back up" or in times of emergency. The details of this concept, however, still <br /> need to be worked out. <br /> Given the above information, please be informed that the applicant's proposed <br /> <br /> water system would consist of the following: <br /> 1. Use of the Alili system for irrigation purposes. Presently, the applicant <br /> captures excess (overflow) water from this system into two (2) 45,000 <br /> gallon galvatized storage *.a.*iks. F~.u?her excesses are then captured in an <br /> open reservoir that has a holding capacity of about 1.5 million gallons. <br /> Collectively, then, this system could provide over 2 million gallons of <br /> irrigation water for the project. <br /> When the County terminates use of this system, the applicant intends to <br /> request a water allocation from this system from the State Water <br /> Commission for irrigation purposes. <br /> Irrigation lines from this system aze currently under construction to service <br /> the proposed lots. <br /> 2. The on-site deep well will be used for potable purposes. If appropriate, <br /> there will be compliance with the Federal Safe and Clean Water Act <br /> relative to testing and monitoring of this system. The well will be cased <br /> with an 8-inch line capable of providing over 200 gallons per minute. The <br /> applicant also intends to construct two (2) 100,00-gallon steel tanks at the <br /> appropriate pressure zone. <br /> PVC or compazable transmission lines to each of the proposed lots would <br /> be provided. <br /> As such, this private potable system -while deem sufficient for the <br /> applicant's project -would not comply with your requirements in several <br /> regards. For one, there will be no back up well. However, with the <br /> storage tanks and alternative means -such as bottled water or even the <br /> interim use of the water from the Alili system, a system which has serviced <br /> the potable needs of this azea for many, many yeazs, are still interim <br /> options. <br /> Then, too, the storage tanks will be constructed out of galvanized steel <br /> instead of the required concrete. Finally, the transmission lines will be <br /> PVC or its equivalent in lieu of the required galvanized pipes. It is <br /> <br />
