Request No.: GSW-W-21-01 IPUC DR 1
REQUEST NO. 1: The Company's Application states that the Troy Hoffman water
system is designed to supply fire flows. Application at 7. ln the 2016 DEQ Sanitary
Survey, two fire hydrants were identified as not having sufficient fire flow. ld at 5.
The system does not provide adequate fire flow as established by the Coeur d'Alene
Fire Department to two fire hydrants installed on 6-inch distribution main. As per ldaho
Rules for Public Drinking Water Systems (Rules) 58.01.08.003.52 "adequacy of the
water system fire flow capacity is determined by loca! fire authority." Lack of adequate
fire flow presents a risk of damage to main in the event fire pumps were connected to
hydrants. In order to prevent this, operators have notified the Coeur d'Alene Fire
Department regarding this concern. ln response the Fire Department does not
recognize the two hydrants supplied by the system. Rather, fire flow is provided to the
subdivislon from four hydrants supplied by the City of Coeur d'Alene Water Department
and located at Troy, Margaret, and Anne Avenues, and Easy Street.
a) Please explain why the Troy Hoffman water system design fails to meet fire flow
requirements.
b) Please provide a map of the Troy Hoffman fire flow system including locations of all
fire hydrants and fire flow capability at each individual hydrant. ldentify the two hydrants
that do not provide adequate fire flow as described in the DEQ 2016 Sanitary Survey.
c) Please provide a map that shows locations of the four hydrants supplied by the City
of Coeur d'Alene for fire flow.
d) Please provide copies of agreements between Troy Hoffman and the City of Coeur
d'Alene Water Department for fire flow.
e) Please explain what actions have been taken to prevent the Coeur d'Alene Fire
Department from connecting to the two Troy Hoffman hydrants identified in the DEQ
2016 Sanitary Survey and potentially damaging the water system. lf no actions have
been taken to prevent connection by the Coeur d'Alene Fire Department, please explain
why not.

Response:
a) The Troy Hoffman water system was not designed to provide fire flows and is not
required to do so unless materia! changes are made to the water system, in
which case Gem State Waterwould employ a complete engineering plan
including any requirements by IDAPA such as new potentialfire flow
requirements. In hindsight, the Application (at 7) should have stated: "Troy
Hoffman Wate/s water system is nof designed to supply fire flows in its cunent
sfafe." (Emphasis added).
b) Please see GSW-W-21-01 IPUC DR 1 Attachment 1, which includes a map
showing the locations of Troy Hoffman's fire hydrants. Fire flow capability is
unknown. All 3 hydrants do not provide adequate fire flow (2 on Margaret Ave
and 1 on Hoffman Ave). These hydrants are considered to provide end of line
flushing, not fire flow. There are 3 Troy Hoffman flush hydrants and 12 City of
Coeur d'Alene hydrants within the Troy Hoffman service area, as shown in GSW-
W-21-01 IPUC DR 1 Attachment 1.
c) Please see GSW-W-21-01 IPUC DR 1 Attachment 1, which includes a map
showing locations of City of Coeur d'AIene fire hydrants.
d) Troy Hoffman does not have a wriften agreement with the City of Coeur d'AIene
Water Department for fire flow. The cunent owners of Troy Hoffman have
indicated to Gem State Water that the City of Coeur d'Alene Fire Department is
aware of the positioning and situation regarding Troy Hoffman's 3 "flush
hydrants." Gem State Water has contacted the Fire Department and received
confirmation that the Department is aware of these circumstances.
e) No action has been taken. The City of Coeur d'Alene has adequate hydrants in
the coverage area and so it does not need to access the Troy Hoffman hydrants
Gem State Water will lock out the "flush hydrants" and tag the Troy Hoffman
hydrants, to avoid any confusion as to the nature of the hydrants.

Data Request Response
Request No.: GSW-W-21-01 IPUC DR 2
REQUEST NO. 2: PIease explain how and when alldeficiencies, requirements, and
recommendations listed in the 2016 DEQ Sanitary Survey were resolved. lf
deficiencies, requirements, and recommendations have not been resolved, please
explain why not, what actions are taking place to resolve them and when they will be
completed.
Response:
The following is a list of the deficiencies, requirements and recommendations listed in
the 2016 DEQ Sanitary Survey, with the requested information after each listed item rn
italicized font.
Deficiencies
1. Accurate instantaneous and totalizing flow meters are required on the 20
and 30 hp submersible well pump discharge lines as per IDAPA
58.01 .08.542.04.
To Gem Sfafe Water's knowledge, Troy Hoffman has not resolved this deficiency. Gem
Sfafe Water already has been in contact with our local vendor inquiring about
approaches fo reso/ve the flow meter deficiency. Should the Commission approve this
transaction and then upon ifs c/ose, our vendor and engineer would submit a repair plan
to IDEQ and Gem Sfafe Water would implement it upon IDEQ approval.
2. The pressure relief valve outlet on the 30 hp pump discharge is leaking
and requires repair as per IDAPA 58.01.08.542.10.
Ihe pressure relief value outlet on the 30 hp pump discharge was replaced on October
16,2017.
Add itional Requirement
1. Please complete the attached financia! forms and return to the DEQ Coeur
d'Alene Regional Office by March 31,2017 .
GSW.W-21.01 IPUC DR 2
NWN Response
Page2of 2
To Gem Sfafe Water's knowledge, Troy Hoffman did not complete the attached financial
forms or return them to the DEQ Coeur d'Alene Regional Office by March 31, 2017.
Should the Commr'ssion approve this transaction and then from its closing, Gem State
Water would ensure that financial forms are completed and returned to the DEQ Coeur
d'Alene Regional Offtce as required.
Recommendations
1. lt is recommended the system valves are exercised on an annual basis.
To Gem Sfafe Water's knowledge, Troy Hoffman exercises the system valves every
Spring as routine maintenance. Should the Commr.ssion approve this transaction and
then from its closing, Gem State Water would use Besf Management Practices and
exercise and flush valves two times per year.
2. lt is recommended that an Operation and Maintenance Manual be
developed for the system.
To Gem Sfafe Water's knowledge, Troy Hoffman has not developed an Operation and
Maintenance (O&M) Manualfor its sysfem. Should the Commission approve this
transaction and then shortly after its closing, Gem State Water would start developing
an O&M Manual and a facility plan for the Troy Hoffman sysfem that ultimately would
become part of Gem State Water's overall Master Plan.
