~' .,' WATER USE <br /> <br /> Current <br /> <br /> Tables 2 and 3 show water used in the study area in 1980. The <br /> seven (7) major water systems provided an average of 15.07 million <br /> gallons per day (MGD) to 55% of the population. As these systems <br /> also serve most of the industry in the county, an average use of <br /> 257 gallons per capita daily (gpcd) is calculated based on current <br /> use, 69% of this amount is used by industrial (44%) and commercial <br /> <br /> (25%) customers. The remaining 31% is residential use. This proportion <br /> will be increased in the planned county-wide system as rural water <br /> users are added on. The other 45% of the population is served by <br /> private water systems (5%) and rural domestic wells (95%). Their <br /> average consumption is 73.5 gpcd~ Self-supplied industry produces <br /> an additional .13 MGD. Irrigatiom and livestock use is .87 MGD, <br /> but is mostly supplied by farm ponds and creeks. <br /> <br /> Projected <br /> <br /> Asshming water use, as expressed by current gallons consumed <br /> <br /> per capita, remains the same, population growth alone will create <br /> a demand of 24.3 MGD if all water users choose to use the county <br /> system. This figure is consistent with the estimate'of 22.6 to <br /> 27.2 MGD reached by North Carolina Department of Natural Resources <br /> and Community Development by different means. This projection assumes <br /> water use remains the same as industry will have to increase along <br /> with the population in order to support it. <br /> <br /> It is assumed that not all potential users within the system <br /> <br /> will want to use the supplied water. To eliminate storage rendered <br /> <br /> <br />
