than S00,000 gallons of water
daily. He said the usage include
141 businesses, 4 industries and
1,254 residents totaling 1,399
connections.
He said the EPD said the
reservoir has enough water for
a 90 day supply based on a
1,000,000/day usage. In essense,
since we only use half that
amount, we have a 180 day sup-
ply, even if it doesn't rain at all,
Sprayberry stated.
He said the city uses 40,000
gallons a day for backwashing
the system.
City manager David Aldrich
said the city is minimizing the
water usage as much as possi-
ble.
"The state still has the ban,"
he said. "As long as they limit
the water usage, we can't lift
our ban either."
he added the state is trying
to preserve aquatic life in the
streams and lakes, also.
Aldrich said the citizens still
need to remember there is no
outdoor watering between 4
p.m. and 10 p.m. Daffy and the
use of automated equipment
such as sprinklers are prohib-
ited.
The odd and even days sys-
tem corresponding with
addresses is in effect for out-
door usage, Aldrich said.
