One of these studies addresses the South- <br /> west Area which consists of P�I�r'CC Service Areas 4 and 5 encom- <br /> passing 27 communities. The results of the study for the <br /> Southwest Area will be presented as a "Facilities Plan" , <br /> prepared in accordance with U. S. EPA regulations and guidelines <br /> as the first step toward implementing actions required for <br /> water pollution control. <br /> Preparation of the Facilities Plan begins with inventory and <br /> analysis of the existing MWCC facilities. Based on projected <br /> wastewater flows for the 20 year planning period, each facility <br /> is evaluated to identify needed improvements. For each problem <br /> identified, alternative actions are developed and evaluated to <br /> enable selection of the most cost-effective action. The <br /> Facilities Plan will present a description of the problems and <br /> the rationale followed to select courses of action. <br /> Assessment of present conditions is required to evaluate <br /> immediate needs as well as to establish a basis for projecting <br /> future conditions_ One task of this assessr,ient that has been <br /> completed is the analysis of the wastewater f low,s from each <br /> community in the study area. Based on reported water use data <br /> and metered wastewater flow data, the components of eacn communi- <br /> ties ' wastewater were estimated. Of particular interest is the <br />
