Re: Sunlight View ll Subdivision
Dear Fred,
This letter is to inform you that the Glenwood Springs Fire Departmgnt is resett¡ng the square footage for the
Domestic water system:
The water supply for ihe potäble donlestic and fire hydrant system is supplied by a tank that also supplies the
Srrnf ight I subdivision s1lstems. On October 3I,2012 we tested lhe domestic system by flowing several of the fire
hydrants on it. Our test results showed the system produced 800-L200 GPM at 20 P.S.l. these flows are the same
as the sysrem produced back ln 2000-2001. By talile 8105.1 in the 2009 IFC Type V-B rated structure which ¡nost
homes {R-3's) that are 0-3,600 square feet require a fire flow of 1,500'GPM for lhe duration of 2 hours, The
domestic system does not meet thÎs IFC flre flow requirement.

Non-Potable water system:
The non-potable irrlgation and fire hydrant system is supplied by irrigation water from the Atkinson Ditch. We
tested hydrants on this system on October 3L,Z:OLZ and found the flow to be unreliable. When the hydrants were
first opened the materlal flowing out of them was mostly mud. After the flow cleared ln 40-50 secotlds some of the
hydrants flowed between 900-1,000 GPM and for one the flow was so low it did not register on our Hose Monster
tesler,
We also discussed the reliability of the flow in theAtkinson Ditch with the State Water Commissioner, Jake
DeWolfe. Mr. Ðewolfe ls in charge of overseelng this irrlgâtlon wâter system and he would not consider the flow in
the Atkinson Ditch a reliable water source to be cqunted 9n,74/7 365,days a year for fire flow. Mr. DeWolfe said
the wâter rights for the Atkînson Ditch a¡e se¡ioi br.rt:not as'je,nioi at othe¡ ditches in the area that are also fed by
Four Mile Creek, ln the years Fouf Mile $reÇk flo1v.!s low all oI lnost of the ryater supplying the Atkinson Ditch

Other issues wlth the fire hvdrânt svitem: . "
During our test in late October 2012,we founcl the fire hydrants in need of servlce.
e The stems used to open and closg them are stiff and difficult to turn. lf a stem breaks one will not be able
to open or closethe hydrant. ', , ,'
. one steamer caþ couíO not be removed
r Hydrants dralned slowly or not at all ,
'
r When we opened hydrants the initial flow contained mud and other sediments, The hydrants on the
system should be flushed annually. These contam!nates in the water wilf damage the pumps on our fire
engirres.
lf you or your staff have questíon on this change and the reasons for it please contact me.
