Dang! We have several water plant operators on here. I also run a 12 mgd surface water plant in central Alabama.
Don't know if you have ever seen one, but this is a "microfloc" plant (by US Filter) and the water from hitting the raw water intake to the clearwell is only about 10-15 minutes depending on the rate at the time (no settling basins and high rate dual media filters).

The distribution experts installed a couple of "helper" stations and then those people started complaining about pressure being too high. Doesn't seem to be any middle ground there.
