INDIAN RIVER COUNTY <br />Table 10: Water Treatment Facilities and Capacity <br />Source: 2024 Indian River County Ten -Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan <br />In focusing on the Indian River County Department of Utility Service area, 2022 data from ESRI Business <br />Analyst, ESRI Data Axle, indicates that the 2022 functionalwater demand was 109 gallons per capita per <br />day. This functional demand included both residential and non-residential uses. Based on the projected <br />2050 unincorporated population of 157,405, this would result in a capacity demand of 17.16 million <br />gallons per day (MGD). While the County currently has a permitted water treatment capacity of 20.1 MGD, <br />the existing Consumptive Use Permit (CUP) only allows a groundwater allocation of 12.84 MGD. The <br />..... County is currently in the process of modifying the CUP to increase the allocation to 16.23 MGD in order to <br />meet the projected demand through the year 2033. It is anticipated that the County would need to further <br />increase the allocation to meet the projected demand through 2050. <br />Recommendation Report 33 <br />
