Examine existing system. Examine the existing water dis- tribution system from source of supply through and including commercial and domestic services. 2. Determine locations of inadequate water supply.by a study. of ' +'dater Department records and tests of fire hydrantd and. service connections where necessary. 3. Determine the maximum flow of water which can be supplied to low .pressure areas .by the existing vrater distribution system during times of peak domestic flow and fire demand. 4. Make recommendations. Based on the above determinations make recommendations for the immediate correction of the present unsatisfactory conditions. 5. Submit a•bound,report containing a compilation of all our studies giving our conclusions and recommendations, exhibits showing the proposed changes in the distribution system with estimates of the colt of construction and other pertinent material. 6.

Study historical growth. From a study of the historical growth, vacant and undeveloped areas and other contributing factors, make a forecast of'the annual future growth in' population of the City and environs which may be annexed thereto. 2. Determine rate of Consumption. Based on water department records, determine the present and probable future rate of : consumption for domestic and other usage and fire protection and their demand on the distribution system resulting from such growth in population. 3. Prepare'e detailed comprehensive plan covering the location and sizes of water mains, hydrants and appurtenances to provide for the ultimate population in such manner that it will become a guide for future municipal.water main construction_ from existing sources of supply and from future sources 'such as the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California. 4. Prepare a budget estimate of the cost of the construction of the distribution system and facilities covered by the•comprehensive plan. 5. Discuss distribution of water. During the progress of our work, discuss our findings with the City Council and other agencies having a relationship with the future problem of providing an adequate supply and distribution of water for the City. 6. Submit all of the data, studies, and pertinent information, - plans, cost estimates in. a bound report for approval and acceptance by the City Council.
