1.0 INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT
DESCRIPTION
The proposed project type is a major subdivision consisting of twenty (20) lots in total. Sixteen (16) are
planned to be townhouse lots, two (2) are planned to be four-plex lots, and one (1) is planned to be a
single-family home lot. The remaining lot will be common open space. This design report summarizes
the projected average, maximum day, and peak water demands for the residential development.
Annie Subdivision Phase 4 will involve connecting two existing dead-end, 8-inch diameter ductile iron
pipe (DIP) water mains, one dead-end which exists at the western property boundary within Daffodil
Street and one dead-end which exists at the northern property boundary within Roger’s Way. Existing
fire hydrants are located to the west side of the project site (hydrant #2145), adjacent to the east side of
the site (hydrant #1015), and multiple along Durston Road. Infrastructure as-builts for Annie Subdivision
Phase 3C dated May 2007 were also evaluated as part of the project. The following image shows existing
City infrastructure per the City of Bozeman’s GIS website.

This project is located within the City of Bozeman’s South pressure zone. An eight-inch water main is
proposed to extend through the project site and connect the existing water mains in Daffodil Street and
Rogers Way. The proposed layout of new water infrastructure is shown on drawings attached with the
preliminary plat application. The water main installed will be class 51 ductile iron as required by City

design standards. This project will accomplish city objectives by creating a looped water main between
Daffodil Street and Rogers Way. Water services to the proposed townhome and single-family home lots
are to be 3/4” water lines. The services to the proposed four-plex lots will be 1” water lines.
2.0 WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
SIZING
An average daily demand of 170 gallons per capita per day unit has been used per City of Bozeman
Design Standards and Specifications Policy. Water main sizing has been in accordance with the City of
Bozeman Design Standards.
Design Parameters:
Average daily use: 170 gallons/capita/day
Average Population Density: 2.11 persons/dwelling unit
Minimum Fire Hydrant Flow: 1,500 gpm
Residual Pressure Required: 20 psi for Fire Flow
Average Day Demand: Peaking Factor = 1.0
Maximum Day Demand: Peaking Factor = 2.3
Maximum Hour Demand: Peaking Factor = 3.0
This proposed development will include 25 units. The residential usages of the proposed
development are as follows:
Average daily use: (170 gpcpd x 25 units x 2.11 persons/DU) = 8,968 gpd
= 6.2 gpm
Maximum daily use: (6.2 gpm x 2.3) = 14.3 gpm
Peak hourly use: (6.2 gpm x 3.0) = 18.6 gpm
Demand Summary
Average Day Demand = 6.2 gpm or 8,968 gpd
Maximum Day Demand = 14.3 gpm or 26,784 gpd

Peak Hour Demand = 18.6 gpm
As part of the proposed development, WGM reached out to the City’s Water/Sewer District regarding
system pressure and hydrant flow testing. On March 5, 2021, the City conducted a fire hydrant flow test
on Daffodil Street, east of North 25th Ave., adjacent to the project site (hydrant #2145). The flow data
from the hydrant flow test is summarized as follows:
Static Pressure: 144 psi
Residual Pressure: 138 psi
Pitot (2.5” nozzle): 120 psi
Flow Rate: 1840 gpm
A WaterCad model is enclosed with this report that shows an 8-inch water main has the capacity to serve
the flows calculated above. The model was built using City of Bozeman Water department information
from the hydrant flow test.
3.0 HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS
The method used to model the connection was by using a reservoir and fictitious pump with a 3-point
characteristic pump curve based on the COB hydrant flow data. The following equation based on the
Hazen Williams equation was used to create a pump curve for system modeling:
Qr = Qf * [(Hr / Hf) ^ 0.54]
Where:
Qr = Flow available at the desired fire flow residual pressure
Qf = Flow during the test
Hr = Static Pressure minus the chosen Design Pressure
Hf = Static Pressure minus the residual pressure during the flow test
All pipes in the system were modeled as ductile iron class 51 with a roughness coefficient of 130. A
hydrant was placed at the end of the line in the proposed model to analyze the impacts of available
pressures and flows during a peak hour demand event that coincides with the hydrant in Roger’s Way

being used for fire flows. Since the system will create a loop between Daffodil Street and Rogers Way,
this was a conservative method to analyze flows for the loop. A minimum of 1,500 gallons per minute at
20 psi was used for the hydrant in the scenario.
The results of the attached model show that the proposed 8-inch ductile iron pipe connection at Daffodil
Street provides adequate capacity to serve the development under the peak hour demand. The static
pressures shown are relatively high based on the existing hydrant test, thus the home builders may
consider installing individual pressure reducing valves so to protect home appliances from pressure
deterioration. This is a conservative model, as the development will also tie into the water main within
Roger’s Way, making capacity likely greater than what has been estimated in this exercise.
