Capital Improvement Program <br />City of Ramsey, Minnesota <br />2016 aim 2020 <br />Project # 16-WTR-001 <br />Project Name Emergency Power Supply for Well #3 <br />Type Improvement <br />Useful Life <br />Category Water Utility Improvement <br />Description <br />Department Water Utility <br />Contact <br />Priority 6 -Planned <br />Status Active <br />Total Project Cost: $115,000 <br />Purchase and install a back up generator for Pumphouse #2, 7301 Bunker Lake Blvd. The generator is 150 KW 480 Volt, 3 phase 60 hz 1800 rpm <br />Justification <br />Currently the City has a backup generator on one well that has the ability to produce 850 gallons per minute (gpm). Our average consumption <br />rate is 1,120 gpm. In the event of a power failure our well cannot keep pace with demand. Well #3 can produce 1,600 gpm so with both wells <br />running we will be able to produce 2,450 gpm, thus able to keep up with demand during a long power outage. <br />This project includes running a natural gas service to the well house to supply fuel for the generator. The project will also include SCADA <br />upgrades for the site. <br />Expenditures <br />2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 Total <br />Improvements Other than 115,000 115,000 <br />Building Cost <br />Total 115,000 115,000 <br />Funding Sources 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 Total <br />Water Utility Fund 115,000 115,000 <br />Total <br />115,000 115,000 <br />185 <br />
