CITY OF CASSELBERRY <br />COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POTABLE WATER ELEMENT <br />station was permitted through Florida Department of Environmental Protection <br />(Permit No. WC59- 0080852 -083 dated September 14, 2005). The facility consists of <br />a 250,000 gallon concrete ground storage tank, a sodium hypochlorite disinfection <br />system, and two 100 -hp booster pumps. <br />e. Potable Water Distribution System <br />The City's potable water distribution system is comprised of approximately 210 miles <br />of water main piping, ranging in size from 2 to 16 inches in diameter and is <br />maintained at a minimum pressure of 20 pounds per square inch. Due to <br />Department of Homeland Security policy, a map of the distribution system will not <br />be provided. However, in general the location of the distribution system lies within <br />the City's service area as shown on Map VII -1. <br />f. Public Level of Service <br />The existing level of service for potable water is based on the annual average daily <br />demand (AADD) reported by the Casselberry Public Works Department. The City <br />currently experiences demand rates between 95 -100 gallons per day per capita (gpdc) <br />with an assumed average density of 2.5 persons per single family home. Due to the <br />actual demand rates and the City's proposed water conservation measures which will <br />at a minimum maintain the per capita demand, a level of service of 100 gpdc will be <br />established by this element. <br />C. POTABLE WATER FACILITIES NEEDS ANALYSIS <br />1. Permitted Capacity <br />On July 28, 2000, the SJRWMD issued a Consumptive Use Permit (CUP) for the City of <br />Casselberry (Permit Number 8284). This CUP authorizes the use of 2,563.0 million gallons <br />per year of ground water from the Floridan aquifer to supply an estimated population of <br />50,152 people with water for household, commercial, industrial, irrigation, and water utility <br />uses with a maximum daily allocation of 21.8 million gallons per day (mgd) for essential use <br />(fire protection) in the year 2020. <br />A modification to the CUP was received on July 1, 2004 that authorized the reactivation of <br />two existing wells in the Hunterfield location. However, complaints from adjacent residents <br />led the City to convert the facility to a storage and repump station. The modification to the <br />existing CUP did not change the permit expiration date of August 8, 2020 nor did it modify <br />the maximum allocated amount of water which remains at 2,563.0 million gallons per year. <br />2. Population Projections and Future Water Demand <br />The population projections for the City of Casselberrys service area were outlined in the <br />Seminole County Water Supply Plan. These projections were based on information <br />.Cand'Vesiiqn 9nnova6ons, 9ne. Page 3 <br />
