1.1.1 General Information
The proposed South University District Phase 3 Block 3 Development is
located southeast of the intersection of 19th Avenue and Stucky Road.
This development will consist of 256 residential units on an 18.85-acre lot.
With 8 different building types;3BR Cottage, Tuck-under Townhouses,
2BR Cottages, 2BR Townhouses, 1BR Large Cottages, 1BR Small
Cottages, 1BR Lofts, and 1BR Carriage Houses. The intent of this project
is to create 256 residential units over a variety of building types to create a
diverse neighborhood in a growing part of town adjacent to the Montana
State University campus.
The project will be served by extension of City of Bozeman water and
sewer mains throughout the project. Individual service lines will be
provided to each block of units. City of Bozeman water and sewer mains
currently exist along the west side of the project site.
The developer’s contact information is:
Capstone Collegiate Communities
Davis Maxwell
431 Office Park Drive
Birmingham, AL 35223
Water supply and wastewater treatment will be provided by the City of
Bozeman’s municipal systems. The system owner’s contact information is:
City of Bozeman Public Service Department
PO Box 1230
Bozeman, MT 59771-1230
The location of the SUD Phase 3 Block 3 development is shown on the
Vicinity Map in Figure 1.

1.1.2 Extent of Water Works System
Water supply to the area is from an existing 24” diameter water main in S
19th Ave, and, existing 12” main in Stucky Road. An existing 8” main in
South 17th Ave will be extended south of Stucky, and new 8” mains in
Arnold will be installed as a part of the off-site subdivision improvements
to service the proposed development.
Additionally, new on-site water mains will be extended into the site in
combined 30-foot wide water and sewer easements.
Each structure will have a single water service from the main to the riser
room, with a curb stop located on the easement or right-of-way line.
Preliminary service sizing indicates a range of 1 ½” to 4” services.
The Block 3 water main extensions have been designed in accordance
with Montana Department of Environmental Quality Circular 1, and the
City of Bozeman Design Standards and Specifications Policy.
Construction specifications will be Montana Public Works Standards and
Specifications (MPWSS), and the City of Bozeman Modifications to
MPWSS.

1.1.3 Alternate Plans
Due to the project’s location within the City of Bozeman, extension of
public mains was the only water supply alternative. Distribution
alternatives were explored, and the proposed design was selected to
increase looping and minimize dead ends. The use of an on-site well as a
source for irrigation usage is not feasible due to the previously allocated
water rights in the Phase 2 subdivision park. because of the lack of water
rights available for the lot.
1.1.4. Site Conditions
The SUD Phase 3 Block 3 site is typical of Bozeman with fine-grained
soils overlying gravel deposits. Geotechnical borings have determined the
depth to gravel ranges from 2.5 to 6.5 feet. Estimated depth to
groundwater obtained from the geotechnical borings is variable from 4 - 9
feet. If mains are installed during periods of high groundwater, dewatering
may be required.
1.1.5. Water Use Data
The estimated residential water use was based on the City of Bozeman
design standards for wastewater generation. The estimated flow was
determined based on 2.11 people per unit and an average daily flow rate
of 89 gpd/person in accordance with the City of Bozeman Design
Standards Utility Design Criteria.
Site irrigation use was calculated by the Landscape Architect as shown in
the landscaping plans. The following table displays the combined
residential, commercial, and irrigation water design flows. The design
max day peak hour flow for the proposed Block 3 is 174.26 gpm.

1.1.6. Flow Requirements
As stated previously, the peak hour water demand is estimated to be
174.26 gallons per min (gpm). Fire flows have not been determined yet
but will be in accordance with the City of Bozeman adopted Uniform Fire
Code. It is anticipated that a fire flow of 1,500 gpm will be required. The
fire flow requirement will be the dominant design constraint for system
design.
As part of the Phase 3 Subdivision process, a hydraulic analysis was
completed to determine the available fire flow in this area. According to
this analysis, Phase 3 hydrants – including those in Block 3 – will have fire
flows ranging from 3,122 gpm to 3,606 gpm, with a system residual
pressure of 20 psi.
Fire flow requirements are based on the Uniform Fire Code. The required
hydrant flow is determined using Table H.5.1 of the Uniform Fire Code.
For example, a 48,000 sq ft Type V-A building requires a fire flow of 4,000
gpm. In consideration of the planned use of sprinkler systems in future
Phase 3 site developments projects, the fire department is allowing a 75%
reduction in required fire flows, reducing the hydrant flow down to the
anticipated minimum required fire flow of 1500 gpm. The fire flow required
will be determined by the fire department at the time of infrastructure
