Brookfield 8th Watermain Loop Determination <br />Capstone Homes and the City of Ramsey have a longstanding, successful working relationship to provide <br />exceptional homes to the residents of Ramsey. It is our desire to come to an agreeable solution regarding <br />the watermain completion issue that has arisen during the planning process. We appreciate the City's <br />willingness to consider cost sharing this aspect of the project given the long-term benefit that it will bring <br />to the City of Ramsey as well as the residents of Brookfield 8th. <br />In the event that the City of Ramsey determines that it is willing to share cost of the watermain loop <br />extension in the Brookfield 8th Addition with Capstone Homes, Capstone Homes would agree to cost share <br />under the following circumstances: <br />• The cost of the water main loop extension not to exceed $105,000.00. <br />• Capstone and the City of Ramsey would each pay 50% of the cost. <br />• The method of construction is a directional bore, Capstone would oversee the work of <br />the project. <br />Should the City determine that it is not interested in a cost share option to complete the watermain loop, <br />it will be Capstone Homes' position to dead end the watermain for Brookfield 8th. Our engineers have <br />determined that the water quality and safety will not be impacted once 20% buildout has been <br />accomplished for the 25 lots in Brookfield 8tn 1 <br />How Safe is the Water on Your Dead -Ends? <br />Insert Information about Your Dead-End(s) Below in the YELLOW Cells to Find Out <br />IStep One: Enter your pipe size in inches (2, 4, 6, 8,10 or 12) <br />IStep Two: Enter the length of your dead-end waterline in miles <br />ITotal Amount of Water in Pipe (in gallons) <br />Step Three: Enter men of Service Connections on the waterline* <br />IAmount of Uncirculated Water (ingallons) <br /># of Days to Consume Uncirculated Water (in gallons) <br />IEstimated Water Tank Turnover (in days) <br />8 <br />0.28 <br />3,860 <br />5 <br />2,110 <br />1.2 <br />2 <br />IAutomatic Flushing Solution (flushing minutes per day to keep water safe) <br />Avg household uses 350 gallons per day <br />FACTS ABOUT UNCIRCULATING <br />WATER <br />EPA recommended minimum <br />disinfectant residual is .5 mg/L <br />(level varies by state) <br />Within 200 hours (8.3 days) <br />disinfectant residuals begin to <br />dissipate and drop <br />Disinfectant byproducts (DBPs) <br />can begin to form within 4-7 days. <br />If the cell 122 is greater than 4, the <br />water may begin to become unsafe <br />for consumers <br />Kupferle's EPA Approved <br />Automatic Flushing Systems (AFS) <br />keep residuals consistent and <br />reduce the threat of DBPs forming <br />by removing old water.
