City of Ramsey Local Water Supply Plan <br />Total Connections - The number of connections to the public water supply system. <br />Total Per Capita Demand - The total amount of water withdrawn from all water supply sources <br />during the year divided by the population served divided by 365 days. <br />Total Water Pumped - The cumulative amount of water withdrawn from all water supply <br />sources during the year. <br />Total Water Delivered - The sum of residential, commercial, industrial, institutional, water <br />supplier services, wholesale and other water delivered. <br />Ultimate (Full Build -Out) - Time period representing the community's estimated total amount <br />and location of potential development, or when the community is fully built out at the final <br />planned density. <br />Unaccounted (Non -revenue) Loss - See definitions for "percent unmetered/unaccounted for <br />loss". <br />Uniform Rate Structure - A uniform rate structure charges the same price -per -unit for water <br />usage beyond the fixed customer charge, which covers some fixed costs. The rate sends a price <br />signal to the customer because the water bill will vary by usage. Uniform rates by class charge <br />the same price -per -unit for all customers within a customer class (e.g. residential or non- <br />residential). This price structure is generally considered less effective in encouraging water <br />conservation. <br />Water Supplier Services - Water used for public services such as hydrant flushing, ice skating <br />rinks, public swimming pools, city park irrigation, back -flushing at water treatment facilities, <br />and/or other uses. <br />Water Used for Nonessential Purposes - Water used for lawn irrigation, golf course and park <br />irrigation, car washes, ornamental fountains, and other non -essential uses. <br />Wholesale Deliveries - The amount of water delivered in bulk to other public water suppliers. <br />Acronyms and Initialisms <br />AWWA — American Water Works Association <br />C/I/I — Commercial/Institutional/Industrial <br />CIP — Capital Improvement Plan <br />GIS —Geographic Information System <br />GPCD — Gallons per capita per day <br />GWMA — Groundwater Management Area — North and East Metro, Straight River, Bonanza, <br />MDH — Minnesota Department of Health <br />MGD — Million gallons per day <br />MG — Million gallons <br />MGL— Maximum Contaminant Level <br />MnTAP — Minnesota Technical Assistance Program (University of Minnesota) <br />56 April 7, 2017 <br />
