                                   4-23.   Your firm has been retained to develop plans for a well system for the village of
                                     Waffle. Using the design elements listed above Problem 4-23 and the following data,
                                     design the well system.
                                     a. Population: 250
                                     b. Demand: 570 Lpcd
                                     c.  Water is to be supplied from wells. No treatment will be provided.
                                     d. Top of reservoir is 66.0 m above ground level
                                     e.  Friction losses     minor losses in piping from well to top of reservoir     0.5 m
                                     f.  Water supply is to be chlorinated, but no other treatment will be provided.
