2 Describe your Drinking-Water System is a groundwater supply system consisting of two wells; Well #3 and # 4, servicing the community in the Town of Caledon. The groundwater drawn from Well #3 is pumped through ultra violet (UV) disinfection equipment and disinfection contact chambers then to be delivered to consumers through the water distribution system. The groundwater drawn from #4 is pumped through greensand filtration and disinfected with chlorine then to be delivered to consumers through the water distribution system. Surplus water is stored in a 3.7 million-litre (810 thousand-gallon) reservoir connected to the water distribution system, as well as a 2.2million-litre (474 thousandgallon) standpipe. The population served in and Mono Mills is approximately 2922 (as of March 2007). Groundwater Treatment and Supply Pump House No. 3 Well 3 is 254mm in diameter and 32m deep with a well screen length of 6.1m equipped with a submersible pump with rated capacity of 23.1L/s. An ultraviolet (UV) disinfections system for treating Well No.3 raw water only, consists of two UV units each rated at 23.4 L/s. A sodium hypochlorite feed system consisting of two (2) pumps (one duty, one standby) rated at approximately 0.7 L/hr, a 400 L sodium hypochlorite solution tank with spill containment. Wells are equipped with on-line continuous chlorine residual analyzers to sample residual at pre and post chlorine contact tank and on-line continuous turbidity analyzers to sample at the raw water header and treated water after the 10 m3 chlorine contact tank. Flow meters are located at well pump discharge, pre-contact chamber prior to discharging into the distribution system and the domestic feed line. A 135 kw standby diesel generator set which provides power in the event of a power failure. Well Pump House No.4 Well 4 is 610mm in diameter and 77m deep with a well screen of length 13.7m equipped with a submersible well water pump with a rated capacity of 38L/s. Greensand filtration system for iron removal consisting of 3 filter vessels each rated at 19 L/s. An ultraviolet (UV) disinfection system for treating Well No.4 raw water only, consisting of two (2) units each rated at 38 L/s. A 55 m3 backwash holding tank complete with one (1) supernatant pump rated at 3.8 L/s to pump supernatant to waste and to recycle supernatant back to the head of the filtration system, and one (1) sludge transfer pump rated at 5 L/s to pump sludge from the tank to be hauled off site. A pre-filtration sodium hypochlorite system consisting of two (2) pumps each rated at 0.7L/hr, a 400L sodium hypochlorite solution tank with spill containment, and all piping and valves necessary for dosing into the Well 4 raw water header. A 12.6 m3 chlorine contact tank is located on site. Pre and post-filtration chlorine residual analyzers and Turbidity analyzers that sample effluent pipe, discharge header, treated water header and supernatant discharge return line are continuously monitoring the station water quality. A 230 kw diesel generator set to power facility in the event of a power failure. Flow meters are located at well pump discharge, iron filters, supernatant discharge, domestic/backwash feed line, and precontact chamber prior to discharging to the distribution system to monitor and record station water flows and volumes of water produced..
