2040 Comprehensive Plan: Envision Shakopee

EXISTINGCONDITIONS

INFILTRATION & INFLOW Historically, infiltration and inflow (I/I) has not been a significant issue for the City. The City was not placed on the MCES List of Communities with Observed Excess I/I and has not been assessed any penalties for I/I exceedance events. Average daily flows have been on a downward trend since 2011 and observed peak flows in the last 10 years have been well below the I/I goal established for the city by the MCES. The average peak flow over the previous 10-year period is 4.99 Million Gallons per Day (MGD) with the highest being in 2014 at 7.04, MCES has set the peak goal at 10.57. Additionally, since 2008, the City has been proactively taking steps to mitigate the impacts of I/I. A detailed discussion and analysis of I/I flows, impacts and mitigation plans and techniques can be found in the appendix of this Plan within the Sanitary Sewer Master Plan.

DRINKING WATER Water services are municipally owned and independently operated by Shakopee Public Utilities (SPU). They are responsible for the maintenance and repair of 202.3 miles of water main, 2,029 hydrants and 3,022 valves. In 2017, SPU pumped 1,763,124,000 gallons of water, an average of 4,830,477 gallons per day. SPU serves 10,333 residential accounts, 882 commercial accounts, and 84 industrial accounts. The Shakopee Public Utilities Commission hires its own employees, sets its own budget, adopts rules and regulations and fixes rates for water service. SPU has created their own Comprehensive Water Supply Plan as part of the comprehensive plan process which can be found in the appendix of this Plan.
