Project Scope and Description:
The purpose of this study is to determine if capacity exists in the present College Station
ro system sewer system to allow the addition o f the proposed osed sanit ary sewer y stem of the
Williamsgate subdivision. The project site is located just southwest of Old Wellborn
Road along Rock Prairie Road beginning 1,059 feet southwest of Old Wellborn Road.
The proposed tie to the existing system is northeast of Old Wellborn Road in the
Edelweiss Estates /Business Area. This area contains approximately 240 residential units
and sixteen office units.
Analysis of Proposed Additional Sewer Flow
A conservative approach to determine the expected sewer flow from the proposed
Williamsgate subdivision is to assume that total water demand equals that of sewage
output. Using this assumption, a peak flow of 0.08131 cfs would be generated by the
proposed subdivision. This value was computed assuming that there are 2.67 people /lot
and that each person uses 60 gal /day of water.
Edelweiss Area Sewer Lines and Capacity:
The proposed Edelweiss Area tie -in location consists of two areas, Edelweiss Estates
North and Edelweiss Business South. The first of the two areas, Edelweiss Estates North,
contains approximately 240 residential units, 1 service station, and 7 office units. The
assumed water usages for the area are as follows:
• Residential Unit: 160.2 gal /day
• Service station: 400 gal /day
• Office Unit (3,000 sf): 750 gal /day
These values were calculated based on published values.
Using these values, residential water demand was calculated to be approximately 38,448
gal /day and business water demand at approximately 6,150 gal /day giving a total of
approximately 44,598 gal /day in the developed Edelweiss North area. So an estimated
sewer flow of 0.06901 cfs was derived from the water demand for this area. The peak
flow is calculated by multiplying the flow by a factor of 4 resulting in 0.27605 cfs. This
sewage flows into a 6" line on the northwest side of Rock Prairie Road, which enters an
8" line running parallel to Old Wellborn Rd. After crossing Rock Prairie Rd. another 6"
line joins the 8" line carrying waste from a portion of Edelweiss South consisting of an
Exxon, Sonic, and an automated car wash. The 8" line then collects waste directly from
the remainder of the Edelweiss Business South area.

The Edelweiss Business South region consists of one service station, one service station /
automated car wash, one fast food restaurant, one self serve car wash, a church with a day
care, and approximately 20,000 sf of office space. The assumed water usages for the area
are as follows:
• Service station: 400 gal /day
• Fast Food Restaurant: 2200 gal /day
• Car Wash: 3100 gal /day
• Total Office Space (20,000 sf): 5000 gal /day
• Service Station / Automated Car Wash: 6700 gal /day
• Church with day care: 1200 gal /day
These values were calculated based on published values.
The total water demand /sewage output was calculated at 18,600 gal /day in the Edelweiss
Business South region. The service station, automated car wash, and fast food restaurant
produces 9,300 gal /day (0.01439 cfs) of flow into a 6" line prior to entering the 8" pipe.
Multiplying this by four, the result is 0.05756 cfs at peak flow. The remainder of the
sewage from the Edelweiss Business South development is to be 9,300 gal /day (0.01439
cfs), which directly flows into the 8" line. The peak values of the sewage flowing
through the 8" line from Edelweiss Estates North and Edelweiss Business South results in
a flow of 0.39118 cfs through the 8" line.
Extra Capacity:
Using a nomograph, it was found that the maximum flow in the 6 "pipe and 8" pipe are
respectively 0.55 cfs and 0.80 cfs. The peak flow into the 8" line from Edelweiss Estates
North is 0.27395 cfs. At the tie, Williamsgate will add an additional 0.08131 cfs
resulting in reserve capacity in the 8" line of 0.44474 cfs. Further down the 8" line,
additional sewage from Edelweiss South area of 0.11513 cfs enters the line. Thus the net
available capacity that remains in the 8" line is 0.32750 cfs.
Results:
The 8" line serving the total Edelweiss development area is at about half capacity at peak
flows. Therefore, the addition of 0.08131 cfs (-52,500 gal /day) of sewage that the
Williamsgate subdivision will create will have a minor impact on the capacity of the
existing lines and will leave 0.32750 cfs remaining capacity in the 8" line.

A. 1. PROVIDE A PROJECTION OF THE AVERAGE DAILY POTABLE AND NON - POTABLE
WATER DEMANDS AT THE END OF EACH PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT. IF
SIGNIFICANT SEASONAL DEMAND VARIATIONS WILL OCCUR, DISCUSS
ANTICIPATED PEAKS AND DURATION. USE THE FORMAT BELOW:
Table 17 -1, following, shows the average daily potable and non - potable water demand
by phase. Total average daily potable water demand at project build out is estimated to
be 1.684 million gallons per day (MGD). Total daily non - potable (irrigation) water
demand is estimated to be 1.564 MGD.
Daily consumption rates are based on annual averages that will vary throughout the
year. Significant seasonal non - potable (irrigation) water demand may occur during
drought periods. It is not anticipated that potable water demands will have significant
seasonal demand variations.
A. 2. DESCRIBE HOW THIS DEMAND INFORMATION WAS GENERATED, INCLUDING THE
IDENTIFICATION OF THE CONSUMPTION RATES ASSUMED IN THE ANALYSIS.
The following assumptions were used to estimate the demand information provided in
Table 17 -1:

B. PROVIDE A BREAKDOWN OF SOURCES OF WATER SUPPLY, BOTH POTABLE AND
NON - POTABLE, BY DEVELOPMENT PHASE THROUGH PROJECT COMPLETION. USE
THE FORMAT BELOW.
Table 17 -2, following, gives the sources of the estimated potable and non - potable demand.
Potable water will be supplied by the St. Joe Utility Company from off -site through a bulk
supply agreement with JEA. The primary source for irrigation will be a combination of reuse
water and surface water withdrawals from the on -site retention /detention ponds. Secondary
sources may include shallow wells and /or Floridan Aquifer wells. The actual irrigation
requirements will be determined during the final design, and the lowest available quality
source of water will be selected at that time.
C. IF WATER WELLS EXIST ON -SITE, LOCATE THEM ON MAP H AND SPECIFY THOSE
THAT WILL CONTINUE TO BE USED. ALSO LOCATE ON MAP H ALL PROPOSED ON-
SITE WELLS. (FOR RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS, IF INDIVIDUAL WELLS FOR EACH
LOT ARE PROPOSED, SIMPLY INDICATE THE NUMBER OF UNITS TO BE SERVED,
GENERAL LOCATIONS, AND ANY PLANS FOR EVENTUAL PHASE -OUT.) INDICATE
THE DIAMETER, DEPTH, AND PUMPING RATES (AVERAGE AND MAXIMUM) FOR EACH
OF THE EXISTING WELLS AND PROJECT THIS INFORMATION FOR THE PROPOSED
WELLS (FOR LOTS SERVED BY INDIVIDUAL WELLS, THIS INFORMATION MAY BE
GROUPED FOR PROJECTION PURPOSES). ALSO PROVIDE A BREAKDOWN OF THE
WELLS WITH REGARD TO POTABLE AND NON - POTABLE SOURCES.
Currently, there is only one known water well on the RiverTown property. The well is located in
the northwest sector, and the location is shown on Map D. This well into the upper Floridan
Aquifer was constructed in December 1989 as a test/production well with a 16 inch casing, 338
feet below land surface and a Consumptive Use Permit was issued by SJRWMD for its use as

Project Scope and Description:
The purpose of this analysis is to determine whether there is adequate capacity in the
existing sewer line to provide service for Williamsgate Subdivision. The project site is
located just southwest of Old Wellborn Road along Rock Prairie Road beginning 1,059
feet southwest of Old Wellborn Road. The proposed tie to the existing system is an 8"
line located northeast of Old Wellborn Road in the Edelweiss Estates /Business Area.
This tie lies within the boundary of the Sanitary Sewer Area 92 -01.
Analysis of Proposed Sewer Flow:
Williamsgate Subdivision is classified for residential land use and consists of 20.27 acres
with 82 proposed lots. Using the Land Use Determination Method of flow from the 2004
Bryan/College Station Uniform Design Guidelines, the flow for the proposed site was
estimated. The peak flow was calculated by multiplying the Average Daily Flow by 4.0.
The estimated flow for Williamsgate Subdivision is 21,894 gpd with a peak flow of 61
gpm.
Lift Station:
The proposed lift station to be used in the Williamsgate subdivision is a Duplex 4: Non -
Clog Lift Station (model # - BPSRA40- 72240VBS). This model runs on two Myers 4"
non -clog submersible pumps which allows a minimum of a 3" solid to pass. The wet
well used for the lift station is fiberglass reinforced polyester, and, because it is a wet
well, odor ventilation is reached through a vent located at the top of the well (no
mechanical ventilation is required). Also, each pipe leading away from the pumps have
check valves at its discharge. After basing specifications on Chapter 317.3 of the Design
Criteria for Sewerage Systems, the Williamsgate Duplex 4" Non -Clog Lift Station meets
the requirements.
Sanitary Sewer Service Area 92 -01 Capacity:
The proposed tie -in location is within the boundaries of the 92 -01 Service Area. Flow
capacity data for this area was obtained from TEXCON's "Sanitary Sewer Analysis,
Impact Fee Service Area 92 -01 for Dove Crossing Subdivision Phases 1" dated October
2004. This analysis evaluated the land use areas of the 92 -01 Service Area and the area
served by the 18" sanitary sewer line which discharges into the lift station near State
Highway 6.
Four land use areas with a total area of 20.6 acres serve the 8" line at the tie -in location.
These areas include retail, office, commercial, and church. The TEXCON analysis
estimated the total flow from these four land use areas to be 25,259 gpd with a peak flow
of 18 gpm. Using a nomograph with the minimum required slope for an 8" pipe, it was
estimated that the 8" line has a capacity of 359 gpm with a velocity of 2.6 fps.
The TEXCON analysis estimated that a total flow of 665,556 gpd with a peak flow of
1,849 gpm discharged from the 18" sewer line into the lift station. The analysis also
determined that the 18" line has a capacity of 2213 gpm with a velocity of 3.1 fps.
Results:
The 8" line at the tie -in is currently at 5% capacity. The capacity including the flow from
Williamsgate would be 22 %. The capacity of the 18" line is currently 70 %. With the
additional flow from Williamsgate, the capacity would be 86 %. The existing sanitary
sewer line has adequate capacity for the development of Williamsgate Subdivision.
