c.

(If required) sewer drain hose directed to a gravity/pressure sewer system. Maximum sewer backpressure is estimated to vary between 0 and 30 psig.

2.1.1 The influent fresh water is supplied via the local municipal water system. Table I shows the expected maximum mineral content of the water supply. The supply is a combination of well water and surface water, and may change from one to the other during the course of a year. Temperature of the supply may vary from approximately 42 oF in January to about 62 oF in August. The Government will provide samples to vendors for independent testing prior to bid if desired.
