SUMMARY: Attached as Exhibit 3-A is Resolution 2016-06 that, if adopted, would amend Rule 24, Table 2: Non-Residential Water Use Factors.

The proposed amendment to Table 2 adds “dry cleaners” that launder On-Site back into Group II. This was inadvertently removed during the last revision to Table 2. “Dry cleaner” drop off locations (i.e., those that do not do laundry on site) remain in Group I.

Gasoline dispensers are being removed from Group III of Table 2 and do not reflect current Water Use Capacity. When this use was established as a Group III, service stations used water for cleaning gasoline spills and nozzles weren’t equipped with emergency shut offs such as are in use today. Today, it is not legal to wash down the gasoline bay due to ASBS and other health concerns. Also, there was a single pump for gasoline, not multiple options such as is available today.

RECOMMENDATION: By adopting Resolution 2016-06, the Board adopts the recommended amendments to Rule 24, Table 2: Non-Residential Water Use Factors.

BACKGROUND: MPWMD Rule 24-B (Non-Residential Calculation of Water Use Capacity) allows amendments to Table 2: Non-Residential Water Use Factors be made by Resolution of the Board of Directors.
