River Islands Development at Lathrop January 2021 <br /> Final River Islands Potable Water Technical Report—Rev 3 #6520 <br /> According to the City's Master Plan, due to the relatively high cost of SCWSP water, the potential <br /> uncertainty of the reliability of the City's full SCWSP allocation(due to adopted revisions in the Water Quality <br /> Control Plan for the Bay-Delta Region), and to simplify operations of the City's Louise Avenue Water <br /> Treatment Facility(LAWTF),the City has historically relied upon its groundwater wells as the primary source <br /> of water to the distribution system. The operation of the City's potable water supply sources is beyond the <br /> scope of work of this report, as an extended state model situation with diurnal demand curves and specific <br /> operating parameters from the City's maintenance team would be required. However, to be described in <br /> Section 5, the full buildout MDD and PHDs are approximately 5,186 and 10,372 GPM respectively. If the <br /> City desired to utilize Turnout#2 as the primary source of water for River Islands, at a minimum, the Phase <br /> 2 SCWSP improvements would need to be constructed and the City would have to utilize off-peak windows <br /> to fill the River Islands storage tanks. <br /> According to SSJID, the 30-inch transmission main feeding Turnout #2 was designed to have a normal <br /> operating pressure of 35-40 PSI. For the purposes of providing a steady state model simulation,the SSJID <br /> connection feeding Turnout #2 was modeled as an elevated reservoir supplying a pressure of 40 psi. A <br /> flow control valve was added to the reservoir outlet to limit the SSJID supply to 8,023 GPM. Upon <br /> completion of the SSJID turnout #2, the pressure at the point of connection shall be verified at different <br /> flows rates and the hydraulic model shall be updated to verify the SSJID supply capacity. <br /> 4.2.2.1 SSJID Turnout#2/SSJID Potable Water Storage and Transfer Pump Station at River <br /> Islands (Site A) <br /> The Site A SSJID PW Storage and Pump Station will consist of the 24-inch SSJID Turnout#2, a 1.0 MG <br /> SSJID surge tank, SSJID transfer pump station, and a 24-inch bypass line. Site A will be owned, operated, <br /> and maintained by SSJID. The storage capacity of the 1.0 MG SSJID surge tank shall not be included as <br /> part of the City's PW storage capacity. Inflow from the 30-inch SSJID transmission mainline will be <br /> connected to the 24-inch SSJID turnout #2 structure located within Site A. Under normal operating <br /> conditions, a maximum flow of 8,023 gpm (with a pressure range of 35-40 psi) from the turnout structure <br /> will fill the 1.0 MG SSJID surge tank. The rate at which the tank is filled will be based on the current water <br /> level in the surge tank and controlled by an electric actuated, 12-inch sleeve valve. During high demands <br /> or maintenance periods, a 24-inch bypass line will be installed upstream of the 12-inch sleeve valve to <br /> bypass Site A and direct water to the Phase I BPS. A check valve will be installed downstream of the 24- <br /> inch motorized valve to prevent potential backflows from River Islands to SSJID. <br /> A 1.0 MG gravity surge tank shall be constructed at Site A, upstream of the Phase I BPS storage tanks to <br /> serve as interim storage during high demand windows. The bolted steel surge tank will be approximately <br /> 86 feet in diameter and 30-feet tall with a maximum surface water level of 27 feet(43 feet MSL as the tank <br /> finished floor (FF) elevation is 16 feet). The tank is supplied with separate inlet and outlet lines with the <br /> inlet entering just below the maximum surface water elevation. <br /> Three 25 horsepower (hp) constant speed transfer pumps (two on duty and one standby) will be installed <br /> to transfer potable water from the surge tank to the Phase I BPS storage tanks. Each pump will have a <br /> capacity of 2,000 gpm at 30 feet total dynamic head (TDH). The transfer pumps shall be vertical turbine <br /> pumps that have ON/OFF control based on the current water level in the tanks. <br /> 20 <br />
