1/5 Inspection of Figure 1/1 indicates that wastewater flow increased at a rate greater than water plant pumpage from 1963 to 1971, and this fact is reflected in the flow projections. The difference in the projected demands for water and wastewater treatment recognizes that the additional sewers result in added infiltration burden. Flow projections indicate an annual average flow of 60 HGD will occur in the period between 1985 and 1990. Dry weather month projections (Figure 1/2) also indicate that, for the month of September, 60 HGD will be realized in the period between 1985 and 1990. While September flows admittedly represent the most liberal interpretation of the data plotted, this projection coupled with that of Figure 1/1 indicate it is ~ealistic to anticipate a flow of 60 HGD will be realized between 1985 and 1990. It is our opinion that 60 HGD represents the best design value for the immediately required plant expansion. The Master Plan prediction of total \V'astewater flow in the year 2020 at the existing plant is appr~ximately 120 MGD. Any prediction of conditions so far in the future is quite speculative, but, as with the population projection, the accuracy of this long range forecast is not of great importance to this study.
