I. INTRODUCTION
StoneGate, a Master Planned Community (MPC) Development, is located 12 miles north of the US395-580/I-80 interchange. The total area of land is comprised of 1,437 acres south of US395 which encroaches on the following parcels: 081-010-18, 081-010-13, 081-110-32, 081-110-33. Heinz Ranch Land Company also holds property on the north side of the freeway consisting of 359 acres that is independent of StoneGate. The site resides within Section 32, T21N, R18E, Section 33, T21N, R18E and Section 5, T20N, R18E, in the City of Reno, Nevada. The proposed StoneGate MPC will consist of 3,815 single-family and 320 multi-family residential units situated on approximately 1,437 acres of the Heinz Ranch in the Cold Springs area of Reno, Nevada. Within the immediate vicinity of StoneGate there is no available water supply. On-site and off-site water supply infrastructure will need to be constructed to bring water to the StoneGate development. The purpose of this report is to evaluate water supply options and provide preliminary design recommendations for the conceptual on-site and off-site water systems.
II. DESCRIPTION OF DEVELOPMENT
A. Terrain
The terrain of the project site varies from a slight incline on the valley floor near US395 to steep mountainous terrain of the northern foothills of Peavine Mountain. The terrain for the StoneGate project becomes steeper to the South and allows for strategic placement of storage tanks throughout the site. B. Phasing
StoneGate is planned to be constructed in five phases as illustrated in Figure 1. Access to all phases is planned to be from the existing US395 interchange. Refer to Table 1 at the end of this section for a summary of dwelling unit (DU) counts for each phase. The first two phases are planned to be constructed in the plain near US395. Phase 1 is planned for the eastern most area of the StoneGate project and consists of an estimated 580 single-family residences and 300 active adult residences. An initial storage tank is planned to be constructed with the Phase 1 water system. Elevations in this phase vary from 5,052 to 5,183 feet and the average lot size phase is 6,276 square feet (sf). Phase 1 is planned to be incorporated into two pressure zones designated as Pressure Zones 1 and 2. Refer to Figure 2 for a map delineating pressure zones. Phase 2 is planned for the area west of Phase 1 and contains an estimated 810 single-family homes, 300 active adult homes, and an elementary school. Elevations in this phase vary from 5,045 to 5,155 feet and the average lot size is 5,775 sf. Phase 2 is planned to be incorporated in Pressure Zones 1 and 2.

JN: 9000.100 Page 2 July, 2016
Phase 3 is planned to be located southwest of Phase 2 and is bordered along the south by an existing active railroad track. Phase 2 is planned to contain an estimated 690 single-family residences and a community center (with recreation area and retail/office space). Elevations in this phase vary from 5,108 to 5,238 feet and the average lot size is 6,749 sf. Phase 3 is planned to be incorporated in Pressure Zones 2 and 3. Phase 4 is located in the southern most section of the StoneGate Project with the highest elevations of all the phases. Phase 4 is planned to contain 600 single-family homes, approximately 25 of which would be large lots equal to or greater than one acre. Elevations in this phase vary from 5,322 to 5,572 feet. Excluding the oversized lots, the average lot size of this phase is 11,596 sf. The oversized lots are planned to have an average lot size of 82,560 sf, contain larger houses, and will have a higher fire flow requirement than the other residential units. Phase 4 is planned to be incorporated in Pressure Zones 4, 5, and 6. Phase 5 is located to the west of Phase 3 and is planned to include 535 single-family residences and 320 multi-family residences. Elevations in this phase vary from 5,066 to 5,183 feet. Phase 5 is planned to be incorporated in Pressure Zones 1, 2, and 3.

III. EXISTING OFF-SITE WATER SUPPLY FACILITIES
Existing facilities associated with potential off-site water supply sources are described below. A. Fish Springs Tank/TMWA System
An existing storage tank operated by Vidler Water Company and supplied by Fish Springs Valley is located off Matterhorn Blvd. From the storage tank, an existing 30-inch water main runs south along Matterhorn Blvd to the intersection of Lemmon Dr. The Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA) is currently constructing a new high-pressure 24-inch water main as part of the North Valleys Integration Project. The new 24-inch main connects to the existing 30-inch

main at Matterhorn Blvd and travels south along Lemmon Dr. to the intersection of North Virginia St., south of US395. The termination of the 24-inch main in North Virginia St. is a potential connection location for the StoneGate off-site water system (see TMWA construction drawing in Appendix A) with an available pressure of approximately 115 pounds per square inch (psi). B. Red Rock Road/TMWA System
An existing TMWA water main is located within the vicinity of Redrock Road and US395. Water supply available at this location is limited to 1,000 gallons per minute (gpm) per discussions with TMWA. C. Stead/TMWA System
A 20-inch water main is also under construction by TMWA in North Virginia St. and will be used to fill existing water storage tanks near Stead Blvd. The 20-inch water main is located downstream of a pressure reducing station being constructed as part of the North Valleys Integration Project. Based on conversations with TMWA staff the new 20-inch main will not have sufficient pressure or capacity to serve StoneGate, therefore, this water supply option is not considered further.
IV. WATER DEMAND ESTIMATES
Demands were calculated using TMWA guidelines and locally accepted methods for the Reno area. When estimating peaking factors, Cold Springs Water System meter data was obtained for similar sized lots along with input from TMWA. The following sections present a detailed methodology for the water demand estimates for use in the conceptual design of on-site and off-site water facilities. A. Residential Demand
Indoor and outdoor residential water demands were estimated based on the TMWA Guidelines for Estimating Maximum Day Demands (MDD) [1]. The TMWA guidelines include an equation (Equation 1) for calculating MDD based on lot size. Using the average lot sizes for single-family and active adult residences, a MDD per DU was calculated to be used on the basis of an equivalent residential unit (ERU). The MDD calculations for Phases 1-3 and 5 are summarized in Table 2. Note that Table 2 does not include Phase 4 because the average lot sizes are much larger and result in a higher MDD per DU demand factor.

An ERU in terms of MDD for StoneGate is represented by 1,008 gallons per day per DU (gpd/DU). With the larger lot sizes in Phase 4, a larger water demand is expected. Lot sizes in Phase 4 can be separated into two categories: those in the wooded area and those in an open area. Based on average lot sizes, each residence in the open area represents 1.4 ERUs and each residence in the wooded area represents 3.7 ERUs. The MDD calculation and ERU conversion factors for Phase 4 are shown in Table 3.

For multi-family residences such as the units planned for Phase 5, the TMWA guidelines provide a MDD factor of 0.15 gpm per unit (assumed to exclude irrigation demands) [1]. Each multi-family unit in Phase 5 represents 0.21 ERUs. The MDD calculation and ERU conversion factor for the multi-family residences in Phase 5 are provided in Table 4.

Peaking factors were used calculate average day demand (ADD) and peak hour demand (PHD) from the MDD values presented in Tables 2-4. Based on input from TMWA staff, a MDD to ADD peaking factor of 2.61 was used to calculate ADD. Based on meter data for the Cold Springs water system, a PHD to MDD peaking factor of 1.75 was used to calculate PHD. Both of the peaking factors used for planning purposes are within industry standards. A summary of anticipated residential water demands and ERUs by phase is presented in Table 5.

B. Non-Residential Demand
In addition to the anticipated residential water demands, non-residential demands in the form of a community center and an elementary school are included in the StoneGate project. The elementary school’s demands were calculated on a per student basis. A typical ADD unit factor for a school with a cafeteria and without a gymnasium/shower is 15 gpd per student [2]. With a projected 1,070 students, the anticipated ADD and for the elementary school is 16,050 gpd. Preliminary plans for the community center include a recreation area and approximately 60,000 sf of retail/office space. For the retail/office space, a unit water demand factor of 2.18 gal/sf/month is recommended based on a paper presented at an American Water Works Association conference on estimating commercial/institutional/industrial water demands [3]. The estimated ADD for the retail/office space at the community center is 4,300 gpd. In addition,
D-9
CONCEPTUAL WATER REPORT
JN: 9000.100 Page 6 July, 2016
the estimated ADD for the recreation area at the community center is estimated at 3,300 gpd based on Cold Springs water system meter data for a similar land use. A summary of non-residential water demands and ERUs is tabulated in Table 6. The values presented in Table 6 exclude irrigation demands.

C. Irrigation Demand
Common areas and open space within the StoneGate development include the entrance to the community, street right-of-ways, channels, the community park, and the community center. The estimated irrigation demand takes into account the trees, plants, turf, and pasture grasses used for landscaping in the various StoneGate open space, common areas, and also the landscaping at the multi-family complex in Phase 5. Single-family and active adult residential landscaping for StoneGate is taken into account with the residential demand calculation as part of the TMWA guidelines (as reflected in Table 5). Drip systems are planned to be installed to irrigate individual plants such as shrubs and trees. Sprinkler systems are planned to be used to irrigate large areas such as turf and pasture grasses. Estimated irrigation demands by phase are summarized in Table 7 and detailed in Appendix B. Irrigation demands in Appendix B are estimated assuming a 32-week watering season. The ADD in Table 7 is calculated by averaging the 32-week irrigation demand over a year. The MDD to ADD peaking factor of 2.61 provides a reasonable estimation of MDD during the watering season while also considering staggered watering days. However, PHD is not applicable because irrigation times are typically scheduled during non-peak hours. Open space irrigation may potentially utilize treated effluent which would result in a reduction in the required MDD for the StoneGate development.

E. Fire Flow
Lower Pressure Zones 1, 2, and 3
With the construction of Phase 1 (Pressure Zones 1 and 2) of StoneGate, the initial fire flow required will be based on single-family residences. Fire flow for residential homes under 3,600 square feet will be 1,500 gpm, and will need to be provided for two hours. This equates to a residential fire demand of 180,000 gallons. After the construction of Phase 2 (Pressure Zones 1 and 2), fire flow requirements will be dictated by the elementary school which is expected to have similar construction type and size to other schools in the Cold Springs Valley. Per the most recent version of the International Fire Code (IFC), a type IIIA construction at 140,000 sf (typical size and construction for elementary
D-11
CONCEPTUAL WATER REPORT
JN: 9000.100 Page 8 July, 2016
schools in the area) will require 5,500 gpm for 4 hours. With the elementary school, the total fire flow requirement for the system through Phase 2 is 1,320,000 gallons. Installing sprinklers in the school could reduce demand by 50% if approved by the fire authority. Fire flow requirements for Phase 3 (Pressure Zones 2 and 3) and Phase 5 (Pressure Zones 1, 2, and 3) do not exceed that of the elementary school. Upper Pressure Zones 4, 5, and 6
The residential units in the wooded area of Phase 4 (Pressure Zones 4, 5, and 6) are planned to be greater than 3,600 sf. These larger homes will require a fire flow requirement of 2,750 gpm for 2 hours which equates to a fire demand of 333,000 gallons. Buildout Fire Flow Requirements
The total fire flow requirement at buildout for the water system is 1,320,000 gallons in the lower pressure zones and 330,000 gallons in the upper pressure zones. The fire flow for the lower pressure zones could reduce to 660,000 gallons with sprinkler installation at the elementary school. F. Other Demands
In evaluating TMWA water supply facilities (described in Section III) for conceptual design of the off-site water system to StoneGate, other water demands in the Cold Springs area to be considered include:
� Fish Springs Ranch: Existing water demand of 1,600 gpm from 30-inch water main at Matterhorn Blvd and Lemmon Dr.
V. DESIGN CRITERIA
As the StoneGate water system will be connected to and served as part of an existing public water system it falls under Nevada Administrative Code (NAC) 445A66.752 through 445A.66755. These sections of the NAC describe requirements for the existing water system. Recommended design criteria for the on-site and off-site water systems are outlined below. A. On-Site Water System
Design criteria for the on-site water system is in conformance with the NAC and TMWA design standards [4] as follows:
� Storage capacity: Minimum storage capacity will include operating storage, emergency reserve, and fire demand per NAC 445A.6674(b).
o Recommended operating storage = 8 hours of indoor PHD (off-site water system will be designed to provide MDD).
o Recommended emergency reserve = 24 hours of indoor and outdoor ADD.
D-12
CONCEPTUAL WATER REPORT
JN: 9000.100 Page 9 July, 2016
� Distribution system pressures (more stringent of NAC 445A.6711 and TMWA design standards [4]):
o Minimum pressure of 45 psi during MDD. o Minimum pressure of 20 psi during MDD + fire flow. o Minimum pressure of 40 psi during PHD. o Minimum static pressure of 45 psi. o Maximum static pressure of 100 psi.

� Fire hydrants spacing in accordance with fire department having jurisdiction [4]. � Individual pressure reducing valve (PRV) required when static pressure exceeds 80 psi.
B. Off-Site Water System
The off-site water facilities will be sized to provide MDD to StoneGate. Design criteria in conformance with NAC, TMWA design standards [4], and based on correspondence with TMWA staff are as follows:
� Hazen Williams roughness coefficient (‘C’ Value) of 130 for pipe diameters greater than
or equal to 14-inch diameter and 120 for pipe diameters less than 14-inch diameter [4]. � Minimum depth of cover [4]:
o 48-inches within NDOT right-of-way. o 36-inches in Washoe County (County) right-of-way with established street grade. o 60-inches in County right-of-way without an established street grade.
� Minimum 10 ft horizontal and 18-inch vertical (water main above) separation from sewer, storm, and reclaimed water pipelines, unless approved otherwise with special construction per NAC 445A.6715 and TMWA design standards [4].

for systems with pressures exceeding 150 psi) [4]. � Air/vacuum valves required at high points along the water main per NAC 445A.67135
and TMWA design standards [4].
D-13
CONCEPTUAL WATER REPORT
JN: 9000.100 Page 10 July, 2016
� Blow-off valves required at low points for water mains greater than or equal to 20-inch diameter [4].
� Maximum velocity of 5 fps during MDD (input from TMWA staff).
VI. ON-SITE WATER MODEL
The backbone distribution system was laid out considering preliminary road alignments and finish grades within the StoneGate community. To size the distribution mains and define pressure zones, the conceptual system was modeled using Bentley WaterCAD software. Input to the water model included physical data (pipe lengths, alignments, ground surface elevations) and loads (water demands). The model was used to determine minimum required pipeline sizes and PRV locations to meet design criteria outlined in Section V.A (pressure and velocity requirements). The model scenarios are described below. A. Average Day Demand
The total system buildout ADD is estimated at 1,227 gpm. The model was run at ADD loading to achieve minimum and maximum static water pressures of 45 psi and 100 psi, respectively. B. Maximum Day Demand
The total system buildout MDD is estimated at 3,207 gpm. The model was run at MDD loading to achieve minimum pressures of 45 psi. C. Maximum Day Demand with Fire Flow
The largest fire flow demand required is for the planned elementary school at 5,500 gpm for 4 hours. Other locations to note are oversized residences in the wooded area of Phase 4 that require a fire flow of 2,750 gpm for 2 hours. All other residences require a fire flow of 1,500 gpm for 2 hours. The model was run at MDD plus fire flow loading to achieve minimum pressures of 20 psi. All fire flow demands can be met with the on-site storage. D. Peak Hour Demand
The total system buildout PHD is 5,217 gpm. The model was run at PHD loading to achieve minimum pressures of 40 psi.
VII. EVALUATION OF ON-SITE WATER SYSTEM
A. Storage
Four storage tanks installed in phases are recommended to satisfy minimum storage requirements outlined in Section V.A. The estimated storage required for the StoneGate development is shown in Table 9.

B. Distribution
Preliminary design of the backbone distribution system considers minimum/maximum pressure and maximum velocity requirements outlined in the design criteria in Section V.A. The distribution system is planned to consist of C900/C905 PVC pipe with diameters ranging from 8 to 16-inches. Pressures in the system are anticipated to be regulated via PRVs, booster stations, and tanks with the final layout to be determined during final design. Total pipeline lengths for the backbone distribution system are summarized in Table 11. Additional distribution mains are part of the project, however, with the flexible nature of each village these quantities are difficult to determine and are not included in the pipe lengths shown in Table 11. The preliminary backbone distribution system is shown in Figure 3.

VIII. EVALUATION OF OFF-SITE WATER SYSTEM
An analysis of the off-site water supply alternatives and water main sizing is provided in the sections below. A. Fish Springs Tank/TMWA System
To connect to the existing Fish Springs Tank/TMWA system, a new water main would be needed along the south side of US395 from the intersection of Lemmon Dr. and North Virginia St. to the entrance of the planned StoneGate development at White Lake Pkwy. The total length of water main along this conceptual alignment is approximately 33,000 linear feet (LF). Sizing of the new water main is dependent on anticipated water demands, pipe materials/friction losses, velocities, and line pressures. The limiting factor in water main capacity and sizing is the pressure requirement at the high point along the conceptual alignment. In accordance with recommendations from TMWA staff, a minimum line pressure of 20 psi will be maintained at the high point which has a ground elevation of 5,430 ft and is located approximately 6,000 LF southeast of the intersection of US395 and White Lake Pkwy. A minimum 16-inch water main is required to serve the total MDD of 3,207 gpm for Phases 1 to 5 (buildout) considering the maximum velocity criteria of 5 fps. Initial demands for Phase 1 and 2 could be supplied without the need for booster pumping to maintain the minimum high point pressure of 20 psi. Beyond Phase 1 and 2 demands, an off-site booster pump station would be needed along US395 to overcome the pressure limitation. Velocities and pressures for incremental water demands with a 16-inch diameter main are summarized in Table 12. The existing 1,600 gpm demand for Fish Springs Ranch at Matterhorn Blvd. and Lemmon Dr. is accounted for in the values shown within Table 12.

JN: 9000.100 Page 14 July, 2016
Preliminary pump sizing calculations for the off-site booster pump station at a buildout MDD of 3,207 gpm are presented in Table 13. A 150-200 horsepower (hp) booster pump would be required to maintain a minimum 20 psi pressure at the high point along US395 and to deliver water to the lower and intermediate on-site storage tanks (Tanks 1, 2, and 4).

Supplying irrigation demands through an alternate source such as on-site springs or recycled water could result in reduced potable water demands and a smaller diameter water main for the off-site system. To evaluate the effect of potable water demand reduction, two scenarios are considered:
� Scenario 1: Irrigation demands for common areas supplied by alternate non-potable water source.
o Demand reduction = 225 gpm � Scenario 2: Irrigation demands for common areas and for outdoor residential supplied
by alternate non-potable water source. o Demand reduction = 948 gpm
Minimum pipe diameters and booster pump size required considering the potable water demand reductions outlined above are summarized in Table 14. For Scenario 2 demand reductions, the required water main diameter could be reduced to 14-inch.

B. Red Rock Road/TMWA System
Water supply available at Red Rock Road is limited to 1,000 gpm and is only sufficient to serve MDD for Phase 1 and a portion of Phase 2 (total MDD for Phases 1 and 2 is 1,583 gpm). Additional water would be needed for the rest of Phase 2 and Phases 3-5 (e.g. through the Fish Springs Tank/TMWA System), however, connection to the water system at Red Rock Road could be used as a supplemental source of supply for StoneGate. Available pressure at Red Rock Road is estimated at 60 psi, but would need to be confirmed. To use the 1,000 gpm supply at Red Rock Road, an estimated 150 to 225 horsepower (hp) booster pump and an 8 to 12-inch diameter water main would be required to pump water to the lower on-site storage tank at StoneGate (while maintaining a minimum pressure of 20 psi at the high point along US395).
IX. RECOMMENDED WATER SYSTEM
A. System Description
On-Site System
The preliminary on-site water system includes a backbone distribution system with six pressure zones, pipe diameters ranging from 8 to 16-inch diameter, four phased water storage tanks, and two booster pump stations to boost water to upper pressure zones. One of the on-site booster pump stations would be located at the intermediate tank site (Tank 2) to pump water to the upper level on-site storage tank serving Phase 4. The other on-site
D-19
CONCEPTUAL WATER REPORT
JN: 9000.100 Page 16 July, 2016
booster pump station would be located at the upper tank site (Tank 3) to boost water to residences within Pressure Zone 6. Off-Site System
The preliminary off-site water system includes 33,000 LF of 16-inch water main connecting to a 24-inch TMWA main near the intersection of Lemmon Dr. and N. Virginia St. Water from the Fish Springs Tank/TMWA system could be delivered to the StoneGate lower and intermediate level on-site storage tanks serving Phases 1 and 2 without booster pumping. Prior to construction of Phase 3 of StoneGate, an off-site booster pump station would need to be constructed along US395 to maintain a minimum pressure of 20 psi at the high point in the water main. Detailed calculations for delivery of water from the Fish Springs Tank to the lower and intermediate tanks is included in Appendix C. The preliminary water main alignment and off-site booster pump station is shown in Figure 4. B. Opinion of Probable Costs
Preliminary opinions of probable project costs for the recommended on-site and off-site water systems are presented in Tables 15 and 16.

C. Permitting Requirements
Permits and approvals that will be required for construction of the on-site and off-site water systems will include, but not be limited to, the following:
� County Encroachment Permit � Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) Right-of-Way Occupancy Permit � Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP) Bureau of Safe Drinking Water
Application for Approval of a Water Project � TMWA
D. Construction Considerations
Considerations for design and construction of the off-site water main are summarized below:
� Utility conflicts: A thorough investigation of existing utilities along the water main alignment will need to be conducted during design including review of record drawings, coordination with utility companies, and potentially potholing.
� Special construction: Special construction (e.g. concrete encasement) may be required if minimum utility separations cannot be met within existing utility corridors.
D-22
CONCEPTUAL WATER REPORT
JN: 9000.100 Page 19 July, 2016
� Connection to existing system: Connection to the existing 24” TMWA water main in Lemmon Dr. and North Virginia St. (see Appendix A) will need to be coordinated and planned to minimize water service interruptions.
� Traffic control: Traffic control measures will need to be developed and implemented in accordance with the requirements of the County, NDOT, and the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices.
� NDOT: Construction requirements and right-of-way occupancy permit terms will need to be incorporated into the design and considered for the project schedule.
X. CONCLUSIONS
The preliminary on-site water system includes a backbone distribution system with six pressure zones, pipe diameters ranging from 8 to 16-inch diameter, four phased water storage tanks, and two booster pump stations to boost water to higher pressure zones. Hydraulic modeling results and calculations show that conceptual StoneGate water distribution system will be in compliance with all state and local regulations to meet required ADD, MDD, fire flow, and PHD scenarios. The preliminary off-site water system is sized to provide a MDD of approximately 3,207 gpm for Phases 1 through 5 of the StoneGate community and includes 33,000 LF of 16-inch water main and an off-site booster pump station to be constructed prior to Phase 3. Reduction of potable water demands and addition of supplemental water supply (e.g. Red Rock Road) could result in a smaller water main diameter and/or higher flow capacity.
