Representatives from the city, consulting engineering firm and Project Advisory Committee (PAC) will be available to describe the Master Plan and answer questions. The City's water supply meets all Primary Drinking Water Standards; however, significant improvements are needed. There are several minerals that exceed the Secondary Drinking Water Standards, including iron and manganese. Chanhassen recognizes water system improvements are necessary to ensure adequate system and supply reliability, especially in the case of fire protection and during emergencies and to ensure that demands continue to be met. The City convened a Project Advisory Committee (PAC) in June that will assist the community in understanding the Master Plan development process and provides input into the Plan. Black and Veatch Corporation, a nationally recognized water systems planning and engineering firm with a local office, was hired to prepare the Master Plan. The Plan prepared by Black and Veatch Corporation will identify locations for future wells, identify distribution system improvements to ensure reliability and meet projected demands and identify the treatment process and water treatment plant site that is best suited to the City's needs.
