Examine the water demands for a community that will reach
a
population of 120,000 at the design year. The estimated
municipal
water demand for the community is 300 l/c/d. Calculate the fire
flow,
design capacity of the water treatment plant, and design capacity
of
the water distribution system. Use NBFU formula for fire flow.
