Re: Sanitary Sewer Demand
MEMO DETAILS:
The purpose of this memo is to outline the estimated average daily and peak hour sanitary sewer
demand for the commercial site development of Lot 3A of McChesney Industrial Park Subdivision.
The demand is estimated based on guidelines provided in the Montana Department of Environmental
Quality (MDEQ) Circular 4 and the City of Bozeman Design Standards and Specifications.
An existing 4” PVC sanitary sewer service will be used to serve the phase 1 structure. A new sewer
service would be provided for the future/phase 2 structure via the existing main located in Evergreen
drive. We anticipate extending the services for the phase 2 structure as part of the phase 1
improvements to avoid cutting the parking improvements associated with phase 1.
An average wastewater flow rate of 13 gallons per day per employee was assumed as outlined in
MDEQ-Circular 4 Table 3.1 “Typical Wastewater Flows from Commercial, Industrial, and Other
Nonresidential Sources”. An infiltration rate of 150 gal/acre/day was added to the flow demand
calculations per the COB Design Standards and Specifications. Please see the attached calculations
for additional information. A summary is provided below.
Phase 1
Number of employees = 15
Gross area of site = 0.99 acres
Infiltration rate = 150 gpd (0.10 gpm)
Average day demand + infiltration = 345 gpd (0.24 gal/min)
Peaking factor (P=0.015) = 4.40
Peak hour demand = 1,517 gpd (1.05 gpm)

Phase 2
Number of employees assumed (TBD) = 20
Gross area of site = 0.99 acres
Infiltration rate = 150 gpd (0.10 gpm)
Average day demand + infiltration = 410 gpd (0.28 gpm)
Peaking factor (P=0.02) = 4.38
Peak hour demand = 1,796 gpd (1.25 gpm)
