Question Question 1: Water Supply and Demand Requirements (Total 15 marks) a) A small town (population 2000) is to install a new water supply system. Three possible sources of water have been identified: . A small river with adequate summer flow running through farmland Infiltration galleries or wells adjacent to the river A local creek from a small bush-clad hill catchment that has adequate total annual . Tabulate the advantages and disadvantages of each source as shown below. Advantages Disadvantages River Galleries / welis Bush-clad catchment (5 marks) Note: Type your answer in Microsoft word and print it b) The population for a town is 5200 (1 + F/100). The pattern of monthly flow measured over the three consecutive driest years for a stream is given in the table below. First generate the flow records for the stream for your exercise by multiplying the given values by a factor of (1+F/100). Then: (10 marks) 1. II. III. Using the Rippl method, explain if this water resource is sufficient to supply the township if the capita demand is 300 L/h/d. Determine the minimum storage volume required to maintain a steady supply. Determine the number of years the stream can supply drinking water if the population increases at a rate of 1% annually.
