I I rbW M W October 7, 1988 TO: Capital Improvements Committee FROM: homas J. Cech, Lrector of Public Works SUBJECT: Dispositio of Well Equipment & Water System Facilities This report is divided into four (4) sections: Well Pumping Equipment, Booster Pumping Equipment, Storage Tanks, and Pump House Buildings. In each section the current assets are identified, physical condition noted, a recommendation regarding disposition is made, and a brief explanation supporting our recommendation is presented. Well Pumping Equipment Location Condition Recommendation Well # 1 •Not Operational - needs major pump repair Remove equipment and seal well Well # 2 -Good Condition - (800 GPM) Retain on emergency standby status Well # 3 Operational - Oil leak & apparent oil Remove equipment accumulation in hole and seal well Well # 4 Good Condition Sold/Lake Zurich Well # 5 Not Operational - needs major electrical Remove equipment work and seal well Well # 6 Good Condition - (900 GPM) Retain on emergency standby status Well # 7 Operational, but has bad vibration which Remove equipment requires major repair and seal well Well # 8 Good Condition - (1000 GPM) Retain on emergency standby status Well # 9 Good Condition - (1000 GPM) Retain on emergency standby status Disposition of Wel :quipment and Facilities October 7, 1988 Page 2 Well Pumping Equipment (Continued) Location Condition Recommendation Well #10 Shallow Well - Poor quality water Remove equipment and seal well Well #11 Good Condition - (1300 GPM) Retain on emergency standby status Well #12 Sold to Lake Zurich and sealed well Well #13 Shallow Well - Reasonable quality Retain on water - good condition emergency (600 GPM) standby status Well #14 Good Condition - (1400 GPM) Retain on emergency standby status Our emergency backup supply plan includes seven (7) wells and interconnection with neighboring communities. The capacity of wells recommended above for retention is 7000 gpm or 10.08 million gallons per day. This represents about 1.45 times our annual daily average usage. A long term backup supply plan should involve an interconnection between NSMJAWA and the Northwest Water Commission and possibly the DuPage County Water Commission. Booster Pumping Equipment Location Condition Recommendation Well # 1 3 Pumps - Operational, 30 years old, Abandon & Sell parts difficult to obtain Well # 2 4 Pumps - Operational Retain as front line Well # 6 3 Pumps - Operational Retain as front line Well # 7 3 Pumps - Operational Retain for summer peaking period Well # 8 2 Pumps - Operational Retain as front line Disposition of Wel Squipment and Facilities October 7, 1988 Page 3 Booster Pumping Equipment (Continued) Location Condition Recommendation Well # 9 3 Pumps - 1 Operational, Retain & Convert 2 Gas Driven (manual only) gas driven pumps to dual driven Well #11 3 Pumps - Operational Retain as front line All existing booster pumps are recommended for retention with the exception of three (3) located at Well #1. Some work is needed on most of the pumps to increase their efficiency but repair costs should not be substantial. Because we are recommending the abandonment of Well #1 and the discontinued use of the storage tank at Well #1 there is no need to retain the three (3) booster pumps located there. Water Storage Tanks Location Condition Recommendation Well # 1 1 - 1.0 MG - Ground, needs painting Discontinue operation & investigate other uses for facility. Well # 2 2 - 1.0 MG - Ground Retain as front line Well # 6 1 - 1.0 MG - Ground Retain as front line Well # 7 1 - 1.0 MG - Ground Retain for summer peaking period Well # 8 1 - 2.0 MG - Ground Retain as front line Well # 9 1 - 2.0 MG - Ground Retain as front line Well #11 1 - 1.0 MG - Ground Retain as front line Pratt & 1 - 0.5 MG - Elevated Retain as front Tonne line Disposition of Wel_ .quipment and Facilities October 7, 1988 Page 4 All water storage facilities are recommended for retention with the exception of the tank at Well #1. 9.5 MG of storage are operated during the peak period of May thru September. 8.5 MG is operated during the remaining months of the year. We have not needed the storage at Well #1 since converting to Lake Water nor do we see a need in the future. One option is to investigate the feasibility to moving this tank to the west side of I-290 to expand capacity in our western zone. Building Facilities Location Condition Recommendation Well # 1 Fair - Much rotten soffit & fascia Retain for storage of supplies Well # 2 Good Retain for water system Operation Well # 3 Good Retain for storage of supplies Well # 4 Good, located on Chicago Magnet Wire Demolish property. Well # 5 Good - Subject to flooding along Retain for Salt Creek storage of supplies Well # 6 Good Retain for water system operation Well # 7 Good - Needs Roof & Hatch Work Retain for water system operation Well # 8 Good Retain for water system operation Well # 9 Good Retain for water system operation Disposition of Wel_ .quipment and Facilities October 7, 1988 Page 5 Building Facilities (Continued) Location Condition Recommendation Well #10 Good Retain for storage of supplies Well #11 Good Retain for water system operation Well #12 Good Retain for possible spray paint operation Well #13 Good Retain for water system operation Well #14 Good Retain for water system operation All buildings are recommended for retention with the exception of the facility at Well # 4 which is located on the Chicago Magnet Wire Property. The buildings are low maintenance structures, sitting on property that, I believe, cannot be sold. Some buildings not needed for water operation are currently being used for storage of supplies. Other buildings have the potential of a similar or higher use. I look forward to discussing this report with you at the October 10, 1988 Capital Improvements Committee meeting. cla (TC10788) c: Village Manager Water Foreman Public Works Administrative Assistant
