BABCOCK RANCH WATER UTILITIES ERC CALCULATION TOOL
For purposes of calculating ERCs, the gallonage of potable water assumed are compared to the 125 GPD equating to a single ERC of potable water; and that number of potable water gallonage shall also be used for the wastewater ERC count as compared to the 113 GPD equating to a single ERC of wastewater. For example, a 7,500 square foot bank would calculate the ERCs as follows: 20.4 GPD x (7,500 square feet/1,000 square feet) = 153 GPD; 153 GPD/125 GPD = 1.22 ERCs of potable water and 20.4 GPD x (7,500 square feet/1,000 square feet) = 153 GPD; 153 GPD/113 GPD = 1.35 ERCs of wastewater ERCs should be calculated to the nearest hundredth.
