4. Piping System Layout New Pipelines Supply Line 1 to new tank (A-B-C) – Length = 365 m + tank connection (assume + 10 m) = 375 m – 1 bend, 1 tee, 3 elbow, 2 valves, 1 exit – 17 m elevation rise + tank height – Hill rises to 643 m then valley falls t0 640 m on connecting road (D-B) – ~175 gpm flowrate Distribution line connection 2a from lower Tramo 3b to lower Tramo 6 (E-F) – 105 m length, elevation change unclear, guess 10 m drop Distribution connection 2b from upper Tramo 3b to upper Tramo 6 (B-D) – 120 m length, 8 meter drop with low point at 640 m (3 m below D) Distribution line 2c from new tank to new connections (C-B-E) – 255 m length, 11 meter elevation drop Waypoints PointLocationElevation ACalle Principal638 m BIntersection at Field 651 m CNew tank655 m DEnd of upper Tramo 6 643 m EEnd of lower Tramo 3b 640 m FEnd of lower Tramo 6 ??

6. Estimate of head losses in supply pipe 1 (smooth PVC) 4” PVC sufficient to keep major and minor losses to >10% of the elevation change

9. Supply Pipe 1 Trenching Based on recommendations from EWB Water Resource Guidelines: – 45 cm trench depth – 10 cm bedding (2-12 mm soil) if stones/rocks present in trench – Back-fill with soil that is free of lumps, from stones (>3 cm), and from organic matter – PVC pipe joined in trench and cure for >10 hr prior to pressurizing. Keep joints exposed to check for leaks – For road crossing, bury PVC pipe inside steel or concrete pipe (ID > diameter of PVC joints) and bury at same depth as standard trench 45 cm trench depth 10 cm bedding

10. Valve Boxes Obtain pre-cast valve boxes with lockable lids locally – Or find company locally who can make them Specifications – 4” Pipe centered about 35 cm below ground level – Box should extend 10 cm above ground level – Internal dimensions roughly 45cmx45cm – Place support under valve

18. EPA-NET Simulation for Supply Line 1 Matches Excel Calculations DOWNHILL

19. Questions about Supply Pipe 1 Depth of trench for buried pipe – Along side of road – Road crossing What is situation for connection to existing piping – For supply pipe at point A (Evaluate during May 2012 trip and make connection if possible) – For distribution pipe at points D and B – For distribution pipe at points E and F Design of valve boxes Details of connection from pipeline to tank (Lisa and Brian) Prices of available PVC pipe in ES Need for an air bleed at high-point between points A-D Need for expansion fittings to accommodate settlement – where, how?

20. Design of Distribution lines 2a, 2b, 2c See following map of community and assessment of change in number of homes served by tanks in current and proposed water system During implementation trip will connect Tramo 6 to Tramo 3b (points D-B) in same trench as new supply pipe and gather data about flowrates supplied to homes from new tank Plan to use EPANet software to model distribution to households and assess needs for pipe sizes after gathering flowrate data supplied by new tank

Summary of changes in water distribution system CURRENT SYSTEM Storage – Tanque 1: 35,000 gal – Tanque 2: 11,000 gal – Tanque 3: 25,000 gal Pump supplies water to Tanques 1 & 3 at 175 gpm, ~3 days per week Spring supplies water to Tanque 2 (and other tanques) Homes serviced by Tanques 1.291 2.33 3.260 PROPOSED MODIFICATION Storage – Tanque 1: 35,000 gal – Tanque 2: 11,000 gal – Tanque 3: 25,000 gal – New Tank: 28,600 gal Old Pump supplies water to Tanques 1 & 3 at 175 gpm New pump supplies water to new tank at 175 gpm with much lower head Homes serviced by Tanques 1.154 2.33 3.117 New: 280 New tank reduces demand of water from Tanques 1&2 (which require high head) by roughly 50%
