SECTION 4

DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS

4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS

An analysis of the water distribution system was completed to access infrastructure

improvements required to construct a desalination facility in Hull. A hydraulic model of the Hull

distribution system was developed to simulate hydraulic conditions in the distribution system and

to evaluate infrastructure improvements for various plant capacity and site location scenarios.

Earlier studies did not consider distribution system improvements in the development of cost

models for a desalination facility. Distribution system improvements discussed in this section

include the following:

• System Transmission Main Upgrades - Water main upgrades to existing distribution and

transmission main piping to maintain adequate pressure and pipeline velocities within the

Hull distribution system.

• New Raw Water Transmission Mains - Water mains required to connect the new

treatment facility to the distribution system.

• Water Storage Tank Upgrade - Upgrades to the existing Strawberry Hill Storage Tank

will be needed to provide water storage in the Hull distribution system.

• Booster Pump Station Requirements - Under certain flow scenarios, booster pumping

stations will be required to send surplus flows outside the geographic boundary of the

Town of Hull.

Required distribution system improvements were evaluated for three alternate plant capacities of

2.5 MGD, 4.0 MGD, and 5.0 MGD located at each proposed plant site included in the study.

The proposed locations for the desalination facility are shown in Figure 4-1 and include the

following sites:

As mentioned earlier in the report, the 2.5 MGD plant capacity would likely only provide the

water supply needs for the Town of Hull, although a portion of the plant capacity could be

supplied to neighboring communities during the winter months when the estimated water

demands in Hull lower than the peak demands during the summer. The 4.0 MGD and 5.0 MGD

facilities would provide additional capacity for potential sale of water to surrounding

communities year round as discussed in Section 1 of this report.

The 4.0 MGD and 5.0 MGD facility sizes were selected due to constraints on available offshore

groundwater supply and the treatment efficiency or "recovery rate" of the desalination treatment

process as well as hydraulic limitations in the distribution system. The recovery rate is defined

as the ratio of treated water production rate (MGD) to the raw water supply flow rate (MGD)

entering the treatment process, and this concept is discussed extensively in Section 5. As

discussed previously in Section 2, the hydrogeological analysis revealed that the estimated

sustained water yield from angled wells constructed within the offshore sand and gravel aquifer

deposits ranges up to approximately 8 MGD. Since the desalination process recovery rate is only

50%, an 8 MGD raw water supply source would be required to produce 4 MGD of treated water.

For the 5.0 MGD capacity treatment facility, a 10 MGD source would be required. An ocean

intake is likely if a 5.0 MGD plant is constructed. The primary 20-inch transmission main into

Hull on Nantasket Avenue would require upgrading if a flow greater than 5.0 MGD is selected

for the plant capacity. This system improvement was viewed as a high cost inflection point

which would limit plant development.

The hydraulic evaluation and analysis included the following components:

• Field Hydrant Flow Testing - Hydrant tests were performed at various locations in the

distribution system to provide data to develop and calibrate the hydraulic model.

• Development of a Hydraulic Model of the Distribution System - A model of the

distribution system was developed to test hydraulic behavior of the distribution system

under simulated flow conditions with a new treatment facility.

• Evaluation of Existing Water System Pressures and Demands - The analysis included

predicted available flows and pressures at critical areas of the distribution system under

simulated conditions with the new treatment facility operations.

• Evaluation of Existing Water Main Infrastructure and Storage Tanks - The existing water

mains and storage tanks were evaluated and operating performance "calibrated" to

replicate actual test conditions observed during hydrant testing.

• Evaluation of Water Storage Requirements - The ability of the Strawberry Hill elevated

tank to track and fluctuate properly within the system was also evaluated.

• Sizing of Raw Water Transmission Mains by Plant Capacity and Site Location - The

proper sizing of a water main from the source of supply to the treatment location was

evaluated.

• Transmission Main Improvement Recommendations by Plant Capacity and Site Location

The proper sizing of mains to interconnect the new treatment facility to the distribution

system was evaluated for each site under consideration.

• Evaluation of Booster Pump Station Requirements - The larger flow rates will require a

booster pumping station at the Hull town line. Sizing of booster was evaluated as part of

the study.

The following discussion provides an overview of the existing infrastructure, hydraulic model

development, hydraulic analysis, and specific improvement recommendations for the three plant

capacities (3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 MGD) and site location scenarios (6 candidate sites). Cost estimates

developed for distribution system improvements are included in the financial models discussed

in Section 7 of this report for each of the site scenarios.

4.2 EXISTING FACILITIES

4.2.1 Overview

An overview of the existing water distribution infrastructure within the Town of Hull is

illustrated in Figure 4-1. The figure presents the network of water mains color coded by pipe

diameter, water storage tank locations, the Hull booster pump station, the Turkey Hill Standpipe

and transmission mains that supply water to Hull from Hingham, the proposed groundwater

supply well field location, and proposed sites for construction of the desalination facility.

A description of each of these key facilities follows. A complete piping database of the Hull

distribution system is also included in Appendix L of this report. This database was used to

develop the hydraulic model and to analyze the distribution system.

Water supplied to Hull is pumped from water supply sources and treatment facilities located in

Hingham as part of the Hingham-Hull distribution system. The Hingham-Hull distribution

system is separated into two pressure zones or service areas each operating on a separate

hydraulic grade line established by a water storage tank. The Turkey Hill Standpipe establishes

the hydraulic grade line (water pressure) for the Hull service area and is the primary storage

facility that supplies water to the Town of Hull. The Turkey Hill Standpipe is located in the

Town of Hingham. The distribution system in Hull is hydraulically connected to the Turkey Hill

Standpipe and the Hingham system at Nantasket Ave. and Atlantic Ave.

The Hull distribution system contains an additional 0.5 MG storage tank (Strawberry Hill Tank)

and a booster pump station located on Y Street that functions to maintain minimum operating

water pressure at the highest elevations on the northern end of the peninsula. The operations of

these facilities are described in more detail within sections 4.2.1.2 and 4.2.1.3 of this report.

4.2.1.1 Water System Pressures and Operating Hydraulic Gradeline

The Hull distribution system operates on a hydraulic grade line that ranges from El. 230 feet to

El. 240 feet depending upon the operational water level in the Turkey Hill Standpipe. The

Page 6: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system

10651A 4 - 6 Wright-Pierce

Turkey Hill Standpipe is important because it balances pressure in the large distribution system

and controls pressures delivered to the Strawberry Hill Tank in Hull. A conceptual hydraulic

profile of the existing Hull distribution system is presented in Figure 4-2 to illustrate the concept

of hydraulic grade line and water pressure, and to draw attention to the high point elevations

(points of lowest pressure) in the water system. A simplified profile of the ground surface

elevation extending northerly from the Turkey Hill Standpipe across the Hull peninsula shows

that that ground elevation ranges from approximately sea level (El. 0 feet) to El. 80 - 120 feet on

the hills and knolls. The general location of the hill areas are identified by the road name shown

below each high point in the illustrated ground profile.

The Turkey Hill Standpipe has a nominal volume of 2.0 million gallons (MG) with tank

overflow and base elevations of El. 240 feet and El. 170 feet, respectively. The hydraulic profile

shown in Figure 4-2 was calculated with the Turkey Hill Standpipe full at El. 240 feet to

illustrate maximum static pressure conditions. The approximate hydraulic grade line (maximum

static pressure) was calculated as the difference between the tank water elevation (El. 240 feet)

and the ground surface elevation (El-feet). This elevation is shown in Figure 4-2 as pressure, in

pounds per square inch (psi) at the low and high ground elevations across the peninsula.

The range in calculated pressures shown in Figure 4-2 reflects variations in operating water

depths in the Turkey Hill Standpipe, changes in water system demands, and friction pressure

losses as water flows through water mains. In general, when customer demands increase,

pressures will decrease as the hydraulic grade line is suppressed under higher demand conditions.

In addition, service areas at higher elevations typically have lower pressures because in a closed

water system, pressure increases with distance below the system hydraulic grade line elevation.

Under static conditions, water pressure increases approximately 1 psi for every 2.31 feet of depth

below the system hydraulic grade line elevation under normal water temperature ranges in

distribution systems.

A water system should be designed to accommodate a range of pressures within minimum and

maximum guidelines. Low pressures lead to customer complaints and restrict available flows for

fire fighting. Higher pressures can also lead to increased water loss by leakage from aging water

Page 7: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system

10651A 4 - 7 Wright-Pierce

mains. Standard water works practice is to maintain minimum pressures in the distribution

system above 30-35 psi under normal operating conditions. Pressures during fire flow conditions

should be maintained above 20 psi at all locations in the system. Normal high pressures should

not exceed 80 psi without pressure reduction at service connections, as required by the State of

Massachusetts Plumbing Code. As shown in Figure 4-2, the maximum static operating pressure

range in the system is 90 to 105 psi and the minimum static pressure operating range is 40 to 50

psi. Additional hydraulic analysis revealed that existing pressures can range as low as 20 - 30 psi

under peak hour demands at the high elevation areas near Bluff Road and Farina Road without

pressure boosting equipment. As previously mentioned, the Hull booster pump station located

on Y Street maintains minimum operating pressures above 35 psi in the Bluff Road and Farina

Road areas under all system operating conditions. Operation of this booster pump station is

discussed briefly in section 4.2.1.3.

The overflow and base elevations of the Strawberry Hill Tank are also shown in Figure 4-2. The

overflow elevation (El. 186 feet) of the Strawberry Hill tank is approximately 54 feet lower than

the Turkey Hill Standpipe (El. 240 feet). The inlet/outlet pipe connecting the Strawberry Hill

Tank to the distribution system contains an altitude valve that is hydraulically closed when the

tank is full to prevent the tank from continuously overflowing under system pressures. The

operation of this facility is discussed in more detail below in section 4.2.1.2.

This type of tank configuration is poorly conceived and does not operate properly. Multiple tank

systems should be designed with the same overflow elevation and should water levels should

track together. The altitude valve on this tank remains closed most of the time degrading water

quality in the Hull distribution system.

Our analysis and improvement recommendations focus on maintaining the existing hydraulic

grade line and system operating pressures in order to prevent excessive pressures at the sea level

elevations, which can lead to leakage in older pipe networks, and low pressures on the hills,

which can lead to reductions in fire flow, customer complaints, and problems associated with

existing booster pump station operation. Our hydraulic analysis and proposed system

improvements are discussed in Section 4.4 of this report.

10651A 4 - 9 Wright-Pierce

4.2.1.2 Strawberry Hill Tank

The Strawberry Hill Tank is centrally located in the Hull distribution system and connected to

the 12" water main on Kingsbury Road (Figure 4-1). The elevated tank has a diameter of

approximately 60 feet and a nominal capacity of 0.5 MG. The elevated tank base is located at

El. 160 feet and the overflow is at El. 186 feet. As discussed previously, the tank is normally

isolated from the system by an altitude valve that is hydraulically controlled to close when tank

is full to prevent continuous tank overflow induced by the higher system pressures established by

the higher water level elevation in the Turkey Hill Standpipe.

Because the tank overflow is much lower than the hydraulic gradeline, the altitude valve remains

closed most of the time. To improve water quality, the tank is periodically pumped out by

operators. The Hingham-Hull Water District operates a single speed pump located in the storage

building on site to pump stored water from the Strawberry Hill tank into the distribution system.

The pump has a capacity of approximately 170 gpm and is controlled remotely from the

Hingham Water Treatment Facility or manually at the pump. The tank is currently pumped

down to the base elevation every 3rd or 4th day to cycle the water from tank to the system, and is

refilled by water inflow under normal system operating pressures.

The Strawberry Hill Tank is the primary storage which would provide fire storage within Hull if

the distribution system was segregated for the remaining of the Hull-Hingham Water District

distribution system.

4.2.1.3 Hull Booster Pump Station

The Hull booster pump station is located on Y street near the intersection with Nantasket Ave.

(Figure 4-1). The facility is designed to maintain minimum operating pressures at service

locations on the hills at the end on the peninsula near Bluff Road and Farina Road. The booster

pump station is controlled remotely from the Hingham Water Treatment Facility and operates

based on measured pressure on the discharge and suction side of the pump station. Our analysis

assumes that this facility will be retained and will function similarly with the proposed

desalination facility.

10651A 4 - 10 Wright-Pierce

4.2.1.4 Distribution and Transmission System Piping

A significant portion of the Hull distribution piping network pre-dates 1935 and several pipes

have recorded years of installation as early as the 1880's when the original system was

constructed. The distribution system has had a history of maintenance problems including main

leaks primarily due to the system age and a deficient schedule of capital pipe improvements.

A review of the distribution piping database obtained from Aquarion Water Company (former

owner and operator of the HHWD system) indicates that the majority of the pipe diameters range

from 2" to 8" for distribution mains and 12" - 20" for transmission mains. The pipe material is

predominately unlined cast iron, but the system also includes cement-lined cast iron and ductile

iron, asbestos cement, and many of the small diameter mains are galvanized. A complete

database of piping materials is included in Appendix L of this report.

Our hydraulic analysis and recommendations focus on upgrades to the system transmission

mains to deliver flows from the proposed desalination facility.

The Hull transmission system is composed of the following main segments described below and

shown in Figure 4-1:

• Parallel 12" and 20" Water Mains on Nantasket Ave. Extending from the Hull-Hingham

Town Line to the Nantasket Road Intersection

• A 12" main on Nantasket Ave. and Kingsbury Road from the intersection at Nantasket

Road to the intersection at Veterans Ave

• A 12" Main on Nantasket Ave., Spring St. and Main St. from Veterans Ave. to the End of

the Hull Peninsula

The transmission mains were evaluated for their capacity to transmit the required flow from each

proposed plant location under all three plant capacity options. A computer model of the

distribution system was developed for the analysis. An overview of the model development and

analysis scenarios are summarized below in Section 4.3.

10651A 4 - 11 Wright-Pierce

4.3 HYDRAULIC MODEL DEVELOPMENT

4.3.1 Overview

A computer hydraulic simulation model of the Hull water distribution system was developed for

this project to analyze system hydraulics and to determine the distribution system improvements

required to construct a desalination facility in Hull. The WaterCAD pipe network program was

selected for use as the software modeling tool.

The characteristics of the water system such as pipe sizes (diameter, length, C-value, and ground

elevation at pipe intersections), hydraulic grade line elevations, pump operation characteristics,

and total system demand are the primary inputs to the model. The model generates calculated

pressures, hydraulic grade line elevations, and available fire flows at pipe junctions, and average

velocity, flow rate, and friction head (pressure) losses within each pipe.

The existing pipe network was analyzed under stressed demand conditions for each proposed

plant capacity and site location scenario. This was completed by simulating the following

system operating conditions with the model:

• Each scenario was simulated at a hydraulic grade line of El. 235 feet to simulate existing

static pressure conditions in the distribution system.

• Scenario #1 - 2.5 MGD plant production rate under a maximum day demand of 2.5

MGD. The system was modeled assuming the entire 2.5 MGD supply would be

delivered to customers in Hull.

• Scenario #2 - 4.0 MGD merchant plant supplying 2.5 MGD to Hull's customers and 1.5

MGD to wholesale at the Hingham town line.

• Scenario #3 - 5.0 MGD merchant plant supplying 2.5 MGD to Hull customers and 2.5

MGD to for wholesale at the Hingham town line.

The above scenarios were simulated using a standard AWWA diurnal (24-hour daily cycle)

water-use pattern (extended period simulation) to simulate maximum and minimum pressure

Page 12: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system

10651A 4 - 12 Wright-Pierce

conditions during peak hour demands. In addition, the model was used to analysis tank cycling

and refill operations under hydraulically stressed condition for various plant operating scenarios.

An 8-hour extended period simulation was used to analyze hydraulically stressed nighttime tank

filling under maximum day demand conditions.

The computer model was calibrated to approximate flow test results measured in the field. Once

calibrated, the model was used to simulate operating pressures throughout the distribution system

for the scenarios described above. Fire flow testing and model calibration is discussed in

sections 4.3.4, 4.3.5, and 4.3.6.

4.3.2 Development of Computer Model Schematic

Developing a schematic drawing of the Hull distribution system was the first step in preparing

input data for the computer model. The electronic model schematic was created within the

WaterCADTM Software Program. The electronic model base data was created using electronic

distribution system maps provided by Aquarion Water Company and through use of geographic

information system (GIS) technology. The existing distribution pipes and tank data were

extracted and prepared for model development using AutoCADTM drafting software and

ArcMapTM mapping software. The base data was then imported into WaterCADTM to generate

the model schematic.

The model schematic is a representation of the piping system in which pipes are represented as

lines or "links" and pipe intersections and changes in pipe diameter and material or pipe

intersections are represented as "nodes". Points of water supply (i.e. pumps, storage facilities,

etc.) are represented as pipes connected to only one system node. All water mains with fire flow

capabilities, generally 6-inches in diameter and larger, were included in the model schematic.

For a specified demand condition (average day, maximum day, peak hour, maximum day plus

fire, etc.), the computer model will solve a series of mathematical algorithms to calculate the

flow in each pipe and the pressure at each node.

10651A 4 - 13 Wright-Pierce

Information on pipe size, length between nodes, and C-values (roughness coefficient) were

assigned to each link. Pipe sizes and lengths were obtained from existing distribution system

maps. Piping materials, age of pipe, and type of pipe lining were obtained from a pipe database

provided by Aquarion Water Company, which is included in Appendix __. C-values initially

assigned to each pipe were assumed values based on known material types and pipe ages. For

example, assigned C-values for cement-lined pipes were based on typical values for new pipes,

adjusted slightly lower (as required) to reflect the accumulation of deposits in the piping after

years of service. The pipe C-values were adjusted up or down during the calibration process to

replicate the field data obtained from fire flow testing.

4.3.3 Water Demand Apportionment

Once the distribution system schematic was developed, the next step in constructing the model

was to develop a method of distributing water demands to the entire service area. A demand

analysis described in Section 3 of the report was used in the model to represent water-use

demands. This work was completed as part of an earlier feasibility study by Woodard & Curran

(2002) estimated an average day demand of 1.0 MGD and a maximum day demand of 2.5 MGD

for the Town of Hull. These demands were used for our model development and hydraulic

analysis.

Water demands were assigned to each node throughout the system, except at pump and tank

nodes which represent points of water supply and storage, based on the apportionment

methodology described herein. Zoning maps were used to identify residential, commercial and

industrial zoned areas within the service area and distribution system. A comparison between

zoning maps and the distribution system schematic were made and demands, based on customer

class (i.e. residential, commercial etc.), were allocated to nodes within each respective land use

zone. To further illustrate this methodology, the commercial demand was allocated evenly across

the available number of nodes present in all commercial zones in the service area. A similar

procedure was followed for industrial and residential land-use zones.

Page 14: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system

10651A 4 - 14 Wright-Pierce

These larger commercial and industrial demands were not peaked for maximum-day and peak

hour simulations. We choose this method for demand apportionment for the following several

reasons:

• An even split will reflect the highest amount of demand where the distribution system is

most dense. This is true of mostly residential demands.

• The service area is predominately residential and demand variations follow predictable

water use patterns.

• An even split of the average day demand is the easiest to update in the future as the

average day demand varies.

• Background demand conditions do not stress the distribution system under a fire

situation, therefore to expend a lot of effort to create a weighted split of demands does

not significantly add to the accuracy of the model.

The even-spit demand apportionment methodology was used as a basis for calibrating the

computer model. By multiplying demands at most nodes by one appropriate factor, the

performance of the system was analyzed under average day, maximum day, peak hour demand,

and the nighttime demand conditions.

4.3.4 Model Calibration

Upon completion of the distribution model, actual system operating data obtained from the fire

flow testing program was used for calibration. Calibration generally involves simulating each

fire flow test on the model and making adjustments or corrections to the input data, as required

so the computer system response closely approximates the pressure and flow data measured in

the field. Since most physical parameters such as pipe size, pipe age, material type etc. are fixed,

the roughness coefficient is the primary variable requiring adjustment during calibration.

The average-day demand of 1.0 MGD (based on water use records) was used for model

calibration. The accuracy of the total system demand estimate and the demand apportionment to

the nodes is not critical during calibration, because demands are so widely distributed throughout

Page 15: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system

10651A 4 - 15 Wright-Pierce

the system. The demand distribution results in minimal pipe flow velocities and virtually static

conditions. For this reason, the simulated fire flow, which stresses the system at a single

location, tends to govern hydraulic effects.

During the field testing, system boundary conditions such as the hydraulic grade line (or water

level in the storage facilities) and pumping rates are monitored and recorded during the time each

flow test is completed and used to calibrate the model. In general, the model calibration can be

simplified if the water system pumps are turned off and the storage facilities are the only

hydraulic variable to consider in the calibration process.

Initially, the average day demand was run on the model to verify static pressures against those

measured during the fire flow test program. This step is completed to calibrate the ground

surface elevations at the test locations. Next, iterations of each fire flow measured in the field

were simulated with the model and the pipe C-factors were adjusted until the model results

replicated the field results.

4.3.5 Fire Flow Testing Methodology

The fire flow testing program was performed for the following reasons:

• Provide Actual System Data to Calibrate the Computer Model

• Estimate Hydraulic Capacity of Existing Transmission System

• Provide Indication of the Relative Strengths and Weaknesses of the System

Flow test locations were selected throughout the system mainly to characterize the hydraulic

properties of the existing transmission system, which are the focus of required improvements for

the proposed desalination facility. The remaining fire flow test locations were selected to

provide data that adequately represents the entire service area in order to calibrate the hydraulic

model, and to test older segments or areas of the distribution system.

Page 16: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system

10651A 4 - 16 Wright-Pierce

Once the fire flow test location was selected, a field test was performed. In general, the fire flow

test procedure is conducted as follows: At each test location, two or more hydrants are used; one

to monitor system pressure and the other to measure flow. The intent of the test is to stress the

system to measure the drop in system pressure at a specific hydrant flow rate. The static

pressure represents the system pressure at the test location prior to imposing the hydrant flow.

The residual pressure is recorded while the hydrant is flowing; and represents the resulting

system pressure at that measured hydrant discharge rate. If necessary, more than one hydrant is

used for flow measurement to achieve a target of a 10 psi drop or more in system pressure during

the test (the greater the pressure drop, the higher the level of the accuracy). The results of the

test were then used to calculate the flow rate that would be available from the system at the test

location while maintaining a residual system pressure of 20 psi. This is the minimum system

pressure used by the ISO to calculate available fire flow at specific locations within a distribution

system. The intent of sustaining this residual pressure in the system during a fire is to maintain

supply to area water users, to provide adequate suction pressure for fire fighting pumping

apparatus, and to insure against drawing a vacuum which could contaminate the system.

4.3.6 Field Testing Program

Fire flow tests were performed by Wright-Pierce and Aquarion Water Company personnel on

November 1, 2005. Several hydrants were flow tested across the Hull distribution system to

obtain system data for model development and analysis. Pressure chart recorders were installed

on hydrants at the Hingham-Hull town line at Atlantic Ave. and Nantasket Ave to monitor

system pressure at the town boundary during the testing period. The boundary conditions that

were monitored during each fire flow test included the Turkey Hill Standpipe water level, and

water pressure at the Hingham-Hull town line. The Hull Booster Pump Station and Strawberry

Hill Tank pump remained off line during the flow tests. The individual field test data record

sheets are included in Appendix K. The results of these tests are summarized in Table 4-1.

4.4 HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS

4.4.1 General

The purpose of the hydraulic analysis was to evaluate the distribution infrastructure

improvements necessary for the Town to construct and operate a desalination facility in Hull.

The magnitude of system improvements depends on the location of the desalination facility and

the proposed plant capacity. The capital cost associated with the recommended distribution

improvements were used to analyze the economic feasibility of constructing the desalination

facility in Hull as discussed in Section 7.

4.4.1.1 Summary of Findings

A summary of the results of the hydraulic analysis are briefly discussed below. The important

findings of the Hull distribution system analysis include:

• The storage volume of the Strawberry Hill Tank is not large enough to meet the storage

needs for the Town of Hull if the town chooses to operate independently from the

Hingham system.

• The Strawberry Hill Tank is not tall enough to maintain adequate system operating

pressures at the highest elevations in the system without upgrading the existing booster

pump station and construction of additional booster pump stations.

• A new water storage tank is required to replace the Strawberry Hill Tank if the Town

chooses to operate their own water system.

• The 12" transmission mains on Nantasket Ave., Spring St, and Main St. from the

intersection of Veterans Ave. to the end of the peninsula will not provide the hydraulic

capacity to transmit the proposed flow rates from a desalination facility located at the

Wanzer Day Trucking Site, Duck Lane Site, or Dust Bowl Site without significant

transmission main upgrades.

• Upgrades to existing transmission mains will not be required for a desalination facility

located at the Hull Municipal Light and Power Site, WBZ Tower Site, or South Shore

Charter School Site.

Page 19: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system

10651A 4 - 19 Wright-Pierce

• A new transmission main extension would be required to interconnect a desalination

facility located at the WBZ Tower site or Municipal Light and Power Site to the existing

20" transmission main on Nantasket Ave. at the intersection with Nantasket Road.

• A booster pump station located near the town line on Nantasket Ave. will be required to

pump water beyond the town limits under proposed merchant plant scenarios (4.0 and 5.0

MGD).

The remainder of this section includes a discussion of water storage requirements, booster pump

station requirements, transmission main upgrades and new transmission mains required for each

proposed plant capacity and site location.

4.4.2 Storage Analysis

4.4.2.1 Storage Requirements

The primary source of water storage for the Town is currently the Turkey Hill Standpipe located

in Hingham. The Turkey Hill Standpipe would no longer provide system storage for Hull if the

Town decides to segregate its portion of the distribution system and separate from the Hingham

system. Under this scenario, the Town would either have to operate their distribution system at a

lower hydraulic grade line with the Strawberry Hill Tank (El. 186 feet) or construct a new tank to

replace the Strawberry Hill Tank at a higher elevation.

Figure 4-3 illustrates the approximate hydraulic profile in Hull if the Strawberry Hill Tank was

retained with a lowered hydraulic grade line of El. 186 feet and the system was isolated from

Hingham. A comparison with Figure 4-2 shows a dramatic decrease is static pressures across the

system if the hydraulic grade line were lowered from El. 240 feet to El. 186 feet. Under this

operating scenario, the static pressures in the hill areas would range from approximately 15-25 at

the highest elevations at the end of the peninsula to 35-45 psi in the State Park Road, Roosevelt

Ave, and Strawberry Hill areas. Under maximum day demands, when the gradeline is

suppressed, the pressures are even lower and do not meet minimum system pressure conditions.

Operating at a hydraulic grade line of El. 186 feet would require constructing new booster pump

Page 20: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system
Page 21: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system

10651A 4 - 21 Wright-Pierce

stations to serve the higher elevation areas in addition to upgrading the Hull pump station to

operate under lower pressure conditions. Also, a booster pump station located at the town line

would be required to pump water from the Hull to the Hingham system, which operates at a

higher hydraulic grade line elevation.

Also, in addition to the height limitations of the Strawberry Hill Tank, the storage volume is

inadequate for the size of the Hull water system. Both of these hydraulic deficiencies combined

with the poor condition of the facility indicate that a new storage tank is required if the town

chooses to separate from the Hingham system and operate their own treatment plant and

distribution system.

In general, system storage is necessary for the following reasons:

• Storage should be designed to provide all demands which exceed the maximum-day

average flow rate. The volume of storage which is depleted during the daytime, peak

flow periods during a maximum-day demand condition is refilled during the lower

demand, early morning hours.

• Storage is provided for fire protection. If a fire occurred during the maximum day

demand, all the water used to fight the fire would be drawn from storage volume.

• Storage provides water during emergency situations such as power failures, transmission

main breaks, etc.

• To provide additional volume for pumping during off-peak electrical periods.

• Operating storage is used for cycling pumps during normal daily operation.

All storage components described above should be available while still providing at least 20 psi

of pressure at the highest service area elevations under all operating conditions. This pressure is

equivalent to the volume of water stored 46 feet above the highest service. This storage volume

is referred to as the available or active storage.

Page 22: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system

10651A 4 - 22 Wright-Pierce

The various storage component needs for Hull to meet these various demand components is as

follows:

1. Fire Protection Storage Volume - The volume which should be stored for fire protection

should be capable of providing 3,500 gpm for 3 hours or 630,000 gallons. This is the

Insurance Services Office (ISO) recommended maximum amount of fire protection

necessary for a public water purveyor to supply. Flow requirements in excess of 3500

gpm are the responsibility of the building owner. A volume of 630,000 gallons is

appropriate in the Hull service area where some commercial and industrial land-use

zoning exists.

2. Equalization Storage for Peak-Hour Storage Fluctuation - The storage volume necessary

to provide the system hourly fluctuation demands was estimated to be 20 percent of the

maximum day total demand. Twenty percent of the maximum-day demand of 2.5 MG is

500,000 gallons.

3. Emergency Storage - Storage should be available to meet emergencies. The desalination

facility, water supply wells, and booster pump station would have back-up generator

power equipment; therefore, we do not recommend additional emergency storage

volume. Because of the large electrical load requirements at the proposed desalination

facility, a auxiliary emergency generator would be costly and impractical. We

recommend that an active emergency interconnection remain with the Hull-Hingham

Water District to provide emergency flows in the event of a loss of storage or supply in

Hull.

Three scenarios to determine the required active storage requirements for Hull are summarized in

Table 4-2. A worst case scenario would dictate that for a fire on the maximum-day, the fire flow

and hourly fluctuation volume of the available storage should be available simultaneously during

a 3-hour sustained 3,500 gpm fire flow demand (Condition 1). A similar approach would be to

provide volume for a sustained 3-hour fire flow of 3,500 gpm occurring simultaneously under a

sustained maximum day demand (Condition 3). An alternate method is to provide storage

volume to meet a 1-day loss of supply during an average summer day (Condition 2). For this

Page 23: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system

10651A 4 - 23 Wright-Pierce

analysis, we assumed that the average summer-day demand in Hull was approximately 1.5

MGD, which is the midpoint of the projected maximum day demand of 2.5 MGD and the annual

average day demand of 1.0 MGD.

The required active storage analysis indicates that the Strawberry Hill Tank does not have the

storage volume required to the meet the storage design standards under all three conditions. We

suggest using Condition 2 for storage tank design basis which is most conservative. We

recommended constructing a new 1.5 MG elevated storage tank at the existing Strawberry Tank

site. The existing tank site is recommended for two reasons: 1) the tank is centrally located in a

well looped area of the distribution system which allows fire flows to be maximized across the

system and 2) additional property acquisition not would be required adding additional cost to the

project. The new tank would have an elevated base set at El. 170 feet and the overflow would be

set at El. 240 feet, similar to the Hull-Hingham gradeline. The new tank would allow the

distribution to operate on the existing hydraulic grade line, while maintaining existing minimum

operating pressures on the area hills. The hydraulic profile with the proposed new tank on

Strawberry Hill operating at a hydraulic grade line of 240 feet is shown in Figure 4-4. The

profile shows that the static pressures across the system will remain approximately the same as

currant conditions. Under this scenario, the Hull Booster Pump Station will continue to operate

intermittently to maintain minimum water pressures on the hills at the northern end of the

peninsula during periods of high water demand.

10651A 4 - 25 Wright-Pierce

In addition, a booster pump station would be required at the town line to supply water to

Hingham because as discussed in section 4.4.3., under proposed merchant plant demands, the

pressures available at the Hull town line are not adequate to over come friction pressure loses

and fill the Turkey Hill Tank without additional pumping to increase pressure.

The new storage tank will require a permit from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). It

is likely that FAA approved lighting and painting will be required given the tanks proximity to

Logan International Airport.

Lastly, it should be noted that the proposed storage tank at Strawberry Hill could be located at a

slightly lower elevation and still meet minimum pressure requirements on the hills in Hull. We

suggest retaining the El. 240 feet gradeline for several reasons:

• Customers are accustomed to current water pressure, which would be retained.

• The same gradeline allows gravity exchange of water from Hingham in an emergency

situation.

• Higher gradeline provides better fire protection.

The capital cost to construct the new tank is included in the financial analysis discussed in

Section 7. The total cost includes the new tank structure, tank foundation and site work, existing

tank demolition, and tank level instrumentation equipment to communicate with the desalination

facility and booster pump stations.

4.4.2.2 New Tank Hydraulic Analysis

The hydraulic model was used to simulate tank cycling and refill operations under hydraulically

stressed conditions for each proposed desalination facility site and plant capacity scenario. An

8-hour extended period simulation was used to analyze hydraulically stressed nighttime tank

filling (10:00 P.M. - 6:00 A.M.) under maximum day demand conditions. The analysis revealed

that the tank can refill overnight under all operational scenarios. In addition, the model was used

to compare existing to projected fire flows at the hydrants flow tested with the new tank at a

Page 26: SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS - … 4 - 1 Wright-Pierce SECTION 4 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS 4.1 PURPOSE/SCOPE OF SYSTEM ANALYSIS An analysis of the water distribution system

10651A 4 - 26 Wright-Pierce

higher elevation on Strawberry Hill. The fire flow comparisons are shown in Table 4-3. The

modeled operational conditions used as a baseline for comparison include:

• All Booster Pumps are not Operational

• Tank Hydraulic Grade Line Set as El. 235 Feet

• Minimum System Pressure of 20 psi During Fire Flow Simulation

• Minimum Residual Pressure of 20 psi at Flow Hydrant During Fire Flow Simulation

• Maximum-day Demand Conditions in Hull (2.5 MGD)

With a new storage tank at Strawberry Hill, the fire flow simulations indicate that fire flows are

expected to improve throughout the system. The higher flows can be attributed to:

• The Higher Gradeline

• More Capacity for Friction Pressure Loss During a Fire Flow

4.4.3 Merchant Plant Booster Pump Station Requirements

A booster pump station would be required to pump water from Hull to Hingham or to other

surrounding communities if a plant larger than 2.5 MGD was constructed. For the analysis, we

assumed that water would be supplied to Hingham, which currently operates at a hydraulic line

elevation ranging from El. 230 feet to El. 240 feet.

The following demand scenarios were also tested with the model:

• Scenario #1 - Wholesale 1.5 MGD of after Outside Hull

o Desalination Plant Capacity - 4.0 MGD

o Capacity Available for Hull Customers - 2.5 MGD

o Capacity Available for Wholesale - 1.5 MGD

• Scenario #2 - Wholesale 2.5 MGD Outside of Hull

o Desalination Plant Capacity - 5.0 MGD

o Capacity Available or Hull Customers - 2.5 MGD

o Capacity Available for Wholesale - 2.5 MGD

10651A 4 - 28 Wright-Pierce

The wholesale demand scenarios of 1.5 and 2.5 MGD were simulated with the model under a

maximum-day demand of 2.5 MGD in Hull to simulate the most hydraulically stressed

condition.

The simulations revealed that available water pressure at the town line on Nantasket Ave. ranged

from 70 - 80 psi for a desalination facility located at the far northern end of the peninsula (Dust

Bowl or Duck Lane) and 85 - 95 psi for a desalination facility located on the southern end of the

system (Hull Municipal, WBZ Tower, South Shore Charter School). In order to supply water to

Hingham, the available pressure at the town line must be high enough to fill the Turkey Hill

Standpipe in Hingham, which in turn would be "wheeled" to customers in Hingham or outside

the Hull-Hingham Water District service territory.

Approximately 110 psi of pressure is required at the Hull town line to fill the Turkey Hill

Standpipe to El. 240 feet. The estimate includes 100 psi of static pressure and an additional 10

psi of friction loses within the Hingham water mains. Since this study did not include a detailed

evaluation of the Hingham distribution system, booster pumping requirements and design

requirements must refined if the merchant plant options are selected for further study. Therefore,

with our assumptions, the booster pump station must generate approximately 15 - 40 psi of

discharge head to supply water to Hingham depending upon the location of the desalination

facility in Hull.

The capital cost to construct the booster pump station is included in the financial analysis

discussed in Section 7. The total cost includes the booster pump station includes:

• Building Enclosure and Foundation

• Site Work

• Pumps and Instrumentation

• Generator

• Heating/Electrical Systems

• Fire Alarm/Security Systems

10651A 4 - 29 Wright-Pierce

Additional contingency costs are included for property acquisition, three-phase power extension,

and for permitting requirements.

4.4.4 Transmission Main Improvements

4.4.4.1 General

The transmission main improvements include upgrades to the existing transmission system and

new raw water transmission mains to interconnect the proposed groundwater water supply well

field located on Beach Road (Figure 4-1) to the desalination facility. The transmission main

improvements were evaluated for each proposed desalination facility site and for plant flow rates

of 2.5 MGD, 4.0 MGD, and 5.0 MGD. It should be noted that the 5.0 MGD option will require a

direct ocean intake. The ocean intake locations are assumed to be directionally drilled sub

terrain area pipeline extending 2,000 into the ocean for the shoreline. For the purposes of this

study, the geology would support a directionally drilled pipeline in two locations on the

Peninsula. For the South Charter School, WBZ Tower and Hull Municipal Light and Power

sites, a drilled borehole at Beach Road was assumed. For the other sites, a directionally drilled

borehole near the Harbor View Road was assumed.

Specific improvement by site and plant capacity are illustrated in Figures 4-5, 4-6, 4-7, 4-8, 4-9,

and 4-10 and discussed in the following report subsections. The distribution system

improvements are summarized by plant capacity in Tables 4-4, 4-5, and 4-6 at the end of this

report section.

4.4.4.2 Raw Water Transmission Main Requirements

Recommended raw water transmission main diameters were sized based on anticipated raw

water flow rates for each plant production capacity. Base on the recovery rate of the treatment

process, the 2.5 MGD plant requires a raw water flow rate of 5 MGD, the 4.0 MGD plant

requires a raw water flow rate of 8 MGD, and the 5 MGD plant requires a flow rate of 10 MGD.

We recommend a 20" diameter ductile iron raw water transmission main for the 2.5 MGD plant

and 24" diameter ductile iron mains for the 4.0 and 5.0 MGD plants options to maintain normal

transmission main velocities below 4 fps and minimize friction pressure loss and pumping costs.

The proposed transmission main lengths are based on the assumed routes shown in the figures.

4.4.4.3 Finished Water Transmission Main Requirements

The hydraulic model was used to guide recommended transmission main upgrades for each

proposed site and capacity. The transmission main improvements were simulated with a new 1.5

MG elevated storage at Strawberry Hill operating at a hydraulic grade line of El. 235 feet. We

assumed for the merchant plant alternatives, that the water would have to be pumped from Hull

directly to the Hingham system through the 20" diameter transmission mains on Nantasket Ave.

to the town line. For each proposed plant site, the following hydraulic conditions were simulated

with the hydraulic model to determine transmission main sizes:

Scenario 1 - Desalination Plant for Hull's Needs:

• 2.5 MGD Desalination Plant Capacity

• 2.5 MGD Hull Demand

• No Supply to Hingham

Scenario 2 (Merchant Plant Option 1):

• 4.0 MGD Plant Capacity

• 2.5 MGD Hull Demand

• 1.5 MGD Booster Pump Capacity at Hingham-Hull Town Line

Scenario 3 (Merchant Plant Option 2):

• 5.0 MGD Plant Capacity

• 2.5 MGD Hull Demand

• 2.5 Hingham Booster Pump Capacity at Hingham-Hull Town Line

10651A 4 - 31 Wright-Pierce

System pressure was the variable monitored during model simulations and used as a basis for

transmission main improvements. Each scenario was simulated over a 24-hour period using the

AWWA diurnal demand curve as discussed in Section 4.3. Maximum system pressures at sea

level elevations and localized high pressure areas near the desalination facility were determined.

Minimum pressures on the hills were also determined using 24-hour model simulation.

In general, the magnitude of transmission main improvements increases with plant capacity and

for sites on the northern end of the peninsula. This is primarily due to the limited hydraulic

capacity of the 12" transmission main on Nantasket Ave. from the end of the 20" main at the

Nantasket Road intersection to the end of the peninsula. Our analysis indicates that this 12"

main is a significant hydraulic bottleneck for pumping flows above 2.5 MGD from the Wanzer

Trucking, Duck Lane, and Dust Bowl Sites. A brief summary of transmission main

improvements by site location are described in the following subsections. Cost estimates for

recommended transmission main improvements are summarized in Section 7.

4.4.4.4 South Shore Charter School, Hull Municipal Power and Light, WBZ Tower Sites

The Hull Municipal Power and Light Site and WBZ Tower site locations are advantageous

because of their proximately to the proposed well field, which minimizes the required length of

raw water mains. The estimated length of required raw water transmission main is 2,500 feet for

these sites as opposed to approximately 7,300 feet for the South Shore Charter School site as

shown in Figures 4-5, 4-6, 4-7.

Our analysis indicates that no upgrades to existing transmission mains are required for the

proposed capacities because all three sites can be interconnected to the parallel 12" and 20"

mains on Nantasket Ave., which have ample hydraulic capacity for up to a 5 MGD facility.

However, approximately 1,900 of new transmission main is required to connect a desalination

facility at the WBZ Tower site to the existing 20" transmission main on Nantasket Ave as shown

in Figure 4-6.

10651A 4 - 32 Wright-Pierce

4.4.4.5 Wanzer and Day Trucking Site

Approximately 9,400 feet of raw water transmission main would be required to interconnect the

groundwater supply to a desalination facility located at the Wanzer Trucking Site (Figure 4-8).

In addition, costly transmission main upgrades are required. For a 2.5 MGD plant,

approximately 4,600 feet of 12" main on Nantasket Ave. from V Street near the Wanzer

Trucking site to the Veterans Ave. intersection should be upgraded to 16" diameter. A 4.0 MGD

or 5.0 MGD merchant plant at the Wanzer Trucking site would require upgrading approximately

9,300 feet of 12" main to 20" main on Nantasket Ave. from V street to the Nantasket Road

intersection where the existing 20" main terminates and transitions to 12" diameter main.

4.4.4.6 Duck Lane and Dust Bowl Sites

The required transmission main improvements shown in Figures 4-9 and 4-10 indicates that

locating a desalination plant at the end of the peninsula will be costly due to the long distance

from the water supply source and significant transmission main upgrades required to pump

treated water back across the water distribution system toward Hingham. However, the

offsetting costs to transmit brine waste flow back to the wastewater treatment facility will be

tested in the economic model.

4.4.4.7 Summary of Water Main Improvements

All required raw water and finished water transmission mains for each site and each plant

capacity are summarized in Tables 4-4, 4-5 and 4-6 found at the end of this report section. The

tables also include improvements to storage and booster pumping station requirements for each

option.
