Hidden Creep Residential Development
Water System Design Report
Summary
This report outlines the water daily flow analysis calculations for the proposed Hidden Creek
Residential Development. The development is located on a 5.35-acre lot located southwest of the
intersection between Juniper Street and Oak Park Drive. The project is proposed to consist of
five apartment buildings with supportive services and infrastructure creating 182 new residential
units and the south extension of Oak Park Drive. The City will review the water demands
calculated in this report and evaluate the adjacent system's capacity to accommodate the
estimated demands.
The following references were used in the preparation of this report:
a. MDEQ Circular No. 1 and 4
b. City of Bozeman Design Standards and Specifications Oct. 2024
Existing System and Proposed Expansion
The project will expand the City's existing infrastructure by installing approximately 923 LF of
8" ductile iron water main running south extending from the existing 8" ductile iron water main
located under the intersection of Juniper Street and Oak Park Drive. The new water main will
extend from this intersection and run south under the proposed Oak Park Drive extension until it
reaches another existing 8" ductile iron water main located on the south adjacent property which
extends from the main located under Durston Road.
The existing system was modelled using hydrant flow data provided by the City of Bozeman.
The hydrant used, Hydrant 2152, is located northeast of the project at the intersection of Juniper
Street and Oak Park Drive.
Proposed Project Demand
Each of the five buildings will be served by separate water and fire service lines. Buildings 2 and
3 (as indicated on the Site Plan)will be served by 2" Type K copper water service lines and 4"
ductile iron fire service lines. The service lines will branch from the existing 8" ductile iron
water main located under Juniper Street. The services will range in length from 63' to 101'
which is below the maximum allowed length of 150'. For Buildings 1, 4, and 5, the service lines
will be installed off the proposed water main located under the proposed Oak Park Drive
extension. Buildings 1 and 4 will have 2" Type K copper water services and 4" ductile iron fire
services installed. Building 5 will have a 4" ductile iron water service and 6" ductile iron fire
service. All the service lines for Buildings 1, 4, and 5 are designed to be less than 150'. A fire
hydrant will be installed at the southern end of the Oak Park Drive extension to serve the

Water System Design Report
property and remain within the 100' radius of the Fire Department Connection (FDC) at Building
5.
To facilitate future water and fire service connections to the County lot, a 4" ductile iron water
service line stub and 4" ductile iron fire service line stub will extend into the lot. The CLT lot
will have two 2" Type K copper water service line and two 2" Type K copper fire service line
stubs extended into the property to allow for future connections.
The water usage demand for the UHP lot was calculated using the values per City of Bozeman
Design Standards which outlines an average daily usage of 135 gallons per capita per day at 2.17
people per dwelling unit with the proposed number of 182 residential units.
gallons per capita people 1
135 * 2.17 * 182 dwelling units J = 53,317 gpd
day dwelling unit
The UHP lot is predicted to have an average daily flow of 53,317 gpd or 37.0 gpm.
As the development plans of the County and CLT lots are not fully known, the average daily
demand for these lots was estimated on a per acre basis using the duty factor for R-4 zoning of
3,180 gpad. The water demand of these lots will be further analyzed in subsequent separate site
plan applications.

The County lot is predicted to have an average daily flow of 572 gpd or 0.40 gpm.
CLT Lot:

The CLT lot is predicted to have an average daily flow of 1,367 gpd or 0.95 gpm.
The total development is predicted to have an average daily flow of 55,257 gpd or 38.4 gpm.
In addition to the average daily demand, the water main extension must account for peak periods
of daily use. Peaking factors are applied to the demand and account for peak periods in daily use.
The peaking factors used are maximum daily use and peak hour use which are obtained from the
City of Bozeman Design Standards. Table 1 shows the peaking factors and the resultant flows
from those factors when applied to the average daily demand of 38.4 gpm.

PEAKING FACTORS
Flow Designation Peaking Factor Flow(gpm)
Average Day Demand 1 38.4
Maximum Day Demand 2.3 88.3
Peak Hour Demand 3 115.2
The water usage demand of the development is calculated to have a maximum hour demand of
115.2 gpm. With the addition of a maximum fire suppression system now of 1,500 gpm, the
maximum hour flow demand is 1,615.2 gpm.
Design Capacity
Based on the project water demand calculated above, a maximum hour flow of 1,615.2 gpm is
required to serve the development. The flow analysis shows that the proposed 8"ductile iron water
main has an available flow of 3,500 gpm,refer to Appendix B—WaterCAD Flow Analysis. Based
on this analysis,the proposed water system design provides adequate service to meet the peak hour
demand required by the proposed development.
This project will require the approval of the City of Bozeman Engineer and MDEQ.
