Re: City of Glens Falls Municipal Water Supply Modification
Well Site& Loading Station—Site Plan Submission
Dear Chairman Hunsinger and Planning Board Members:
Attached is a site plan application for the proposed modification of the public water supply for
the City of Glens Falls Watershed Property located off of Butler Pond Road.
The City of Glens Falls is a 3.9 square mile municipality that has operated a public water system
within the Town of Queensbury to support the municipal fire protection, its resident's potable
water needs, and the needs of its industrial and commercial business users. The public water
system has been in use since the late 1800's and much of the infrastructure is in need of
replacement and upgrades. The City of Glens Falls has experienced a diminishing residential
population, industrial and commercial base of customers in its public water system with an
inversely proportional increase in rates for the remaining users within the system. Alternatives to
tax levy revenue streams are very limited. The City of Glens Falls has determined it is reasonably
necessary and appropriate to install a new drilled well as a source of public water for sale to a
user within the existing water district.
The City of Glens Falls through its agent; JUST Beverages LLC, has prepared a study of its
watershed properties for the purpose of determining the most desirable location for a potable
water well. JUST Beverages retained Hanson Van Vleet, LLC to perform a study to determine
the most desirable locations for test wells, oversee the installation of test wells and determine
which location was most viable for a public water well source. The conclusion of this study
determined that a well located within the Butler Pond Watershed near the Butler Storage
Reservoir was the optimum location. An 8 inch diameter Production Well was drilled in the area
of the Butler Pond Watershed Test Well and is currently in the permitting process with the NYS
DOH.
The current plan for the public water well source is to allow an agent; JUST Beverages, LLC, to
install, operate & maintain the City-owned well and transport water from the well site to the
company's water bottling facility in the City. All work within the watershed properties will be
approved and monitored by the City of Glens Falls Water Superintendent. The water from the
well will be pretreated at the well site with ozone and sediment filters, transported via water
delivery vehicle from the well site to the agent's facility within the City where it will be treated
per NYS DOH requirements and bottled for wholesale.
The proposed new well water source will result in no significant individual or cumulative
adverse environmental impacts on the quantity or quality of the water source or the water
dependent natural resources. The hydrogeological report prepared by Hanson Van Vleet clearly
documents that the proposed groundwater well does not influence either the Butler Storage
Reservoir or neighboring wells.
If the new well water source is approved it will actually reduce the quantity of water used in the
overall public water system as the new revenue stream will allow the City to reinvest in
infrastructure maintenance and improvements thus reducing leaks in the distribution system.
The proposed modification will occur on tax map parcel 294.-1-1 which is zoned LC-10. The
disturbances have been limited to existing logging roads that have been improved with
stormwater and erosion and sediment controls. There are no new hard surface areas proposed for
this application and the Loading Station is proposed to be of a temporary nature. The Loading
Station is a converted shipping container that can be removed and relocated if needed.
It is our understanding that the Town of Queensbury is currently reviewing a potential change in
the uses within the LC-10 zone, adding water extraction as an allowed use.
This project will require approvals/permits as follows:
• Town Board -Addition of Water Extraction as an allowed use within an LC 10 zone
• TOQ Planning- Site Plan Approval
• NYSDOH -Permit for Water Source
• NYSDEC - Water Supply Permit Modification and Water Withdrawal Permit
This submission includes(15 copies each):
• This letter which is to serve as a project narrative
• Site Plan Application
• Long form EAF
• Drawings SP-1 thru SP-3 and Loading Station Drawings(2 total)
• Summary of Hanson VanVleet Hydrogeological report(3 Full copies of report have been
included.)
Please let me know if there are any questions or additional information required for your review
of this project.
Sincerely,
omas R. Center Jr., P.E.

the following topics.
STANDARDS
A. The proposed project furthers or is consistent with the policies of the Town's Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed project would be consistent with the Towns Comprehensive Plan as the proposed development of a
new public water source for use by the City of Glens Falls is an extension of their existing use of the watershed
lands for protecting,diverting and obtaining water from the watershed for supply to customer within City limits.
B. The proposed project complies with all other requirements of this Chapter. including the site plan review standards as set forth in
Paragraph F of this section. the dimensional, bulk. and density regulations of the zoning district in which it is proposed to be located
(Article 3 and Table 1).the applicable requirements of all other Articles that apply.
Yes
C. The site plan encourages pedestrian activity internally and. if practicable, to and from the site with pedestrian paths or sidewalks
connected to adjacent areas.
Not applicable.
D. The site plan must conform to Chapter 136 Sewage and Sewage Disposal, Chapter 147 Stormwater Management Local Law. and
other applicable local laws.
No sewage works are proposed or required for this use.
E. The proposed use shall be in harmony with the general purpose or intent of this Chapter,specifically taking into account the location.
character and size of the proposed use and the description and purpose of the district in which such use is proposed,the nature and
intensity of the activities to be involved in or conducted in connection with the proposed use and the nature and rate of any increase in
the burden on supporting public services and facilities which will follow the approval of the proposed use.
The proposed use is in harmony with the current land use. The temporary loading station will be finished with a
paint scheme that will allow it to blend in with the existing woods.The disturbance for the access drive has been
kept to the limits of the existing logging road and log lay down area which has existed on the land for some time.
F. The establishment, maintenance and operation of the proposed use will not create public hazards from traffic,traffic congestion or the
parking of vehicles and/or equipment or be otherwise detrimental to the health. safety or general welfare of persons residing or
working in the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the town. Traffic access and circulation. road intersections. road and
driveway widths,and traffic controls will be adequate.
The traffic from this proposed use will be minimized during the initial years of operation.The initial water delivery vehicles will be on the
average of 2 to 3 round trips per day for the first couple of years.The vehicles proposed to trauspot t the water will be hybrid vehicles as soon as
a vehicle can be configured.
G. Off-street parking and loading facilities will be appropriately located and arranged and sufficient to meet traffic anticipated to be
generated by the new use. The establishment of vehicle links between parking areas of adjacent properties are provided where
feasible. This furthers the Town's goal of reducing curb cuts and reducing congestion.A twenty-foot wide connection is required. If
adjacent properties are either undeveloped or previously developed without having made provision for future linkage. then a future
connection must be identified and provided for in the site plan under review for such future linkage when the time arises. The
Planning Board may require proof that the applicant has made contact with adjacent property owners for purposes of coordinating
linkages with adjacent properties.
The loading facility has been located within the limits of an existing disturbed area where logs were stored.
H. The project shall not have an undue adverse impact upon the natural, scenic, aesthetic. ecological, wildlife, historic. recreational or
open space resources of the town or the Adirondack Park or upon the adequate provision of supporting facilities and services made
necessary by the project.taking into account the commercial, industrial, residential, recreational or other benefits that might be derived
from the project. In making the determination hereunder. the Planning Board shall consider those factors pertinent to the project
contained in the development considerations set forth herein under§ 179-9-080 of this chapter. and in so doing, the Planning Board
shall make a net overall evaluation of the project in relation to the development objectives and general guidelines set forth in §179-9-
080 of this Article.
Almost all disturbance has been located within the limits of an existing logging road and log lay down area. Minor
disturbance into the woods adjacent will be required to install sediment and erosion control measures.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
HYDROGEOLOGIC EVALUATION
Bottled Water Source
Glens Falls Watershed Properties
Town of Queensbury
Warren County,New York
INTRODUCTION
HVV performed an evaluation in to determine the feasibility of developing a spring and/or
bottled water groundwater source on "water shed" properties (Study Area) owned by the City of
Glens Fall. The evaluation was performed in conjunction with the City of Glens Falls and Just
Goods, Inc. The purpose of the evaluation was to determine the potential for the developing a
spring and/or bottled water groundwater supply source on the City of Glens Falls "water shed"
properties capable of meeting the appropriate quantity and quality for a viable bottled water
source. The evaluation also was performed to confirm that the area has sufficient recharge so as
not to impact recharge to Butler Reservoir System and other groundwater users in the area.
Once a potential source was located, a production well was installed, tested and evaluated. The
ultimate objective was to develop a groundwater source, which meets the quality standards for a
bottled water source established by JUST Goods, Inc., does not impact the City of Glens Falls
reservoirs and complies with the New York State Sanitary Code Part 5, Subpart 5-6 Bottled and
Bulk Water Standards. The following summarizes the results of the evaluation, testing and
development of the bottled water groundwater source.
1. Literature Search/Evaluation and Interviews: A literature search was conducted to
identify the geologic and hydrogeologic conditions within the watershed properties
owned by the City of Glens Falls, with respect to the potential for developing a bottled
water groundwater source. Mr. Steven Gurzler, P.E., City of Glens Falls Engineer and
Mr. George Stec, long time resident of Queensbury and former State Forest Ranger
familiar with the Glens Falls watershed properties were interviewed with respect to their
knowledge of the watershed properties. The result of the literature search and interviews
indicated the best potential for encountering groundwater aquifer of the quality desired
for a bottled water source was within the granitic rocks on the Luzerne Mountains west of
West Mountain Road.
2. Fracture Trace/Lineament Analysis: HVV performed a fracture trace/lineament
analysis to determine optimal areas to explore for a source of groundwater for the
proposed project in bedrock aquifers on watershed properties. Priority was placed on
areas exhibiting springs and/or seeps. A fracture trace/lineament analysis identifies linear
features on topographic maps and orthoimagery (aerial photographs), that may represent
water bearing fractures, paleo-faults, shear zones and/or bedding planes. Multiple linear

features were identified on watershed property. Field reconnaissance was performed on
March 26, 2014, with multiple follow-up visits to identify hydrogeologic features in the
field, estimate set back requirements, evaluate potential surface water sampling areas,
determine possible access routes and identify the specific proposed drilling target areas.
The reconnaissance included the entire area within and surrounding the watershed
properties,but focused on the area near Butler Pond and Butler Storage Reservoir. Four
preliminary target areas were identified based on the information reviewed, fracture trace
analysis, access and the field reconnaissance. It should be noted that sites accessible with
minimal tree cutting were given priority.
3. Test Well Drilling: Four six-inch test wells were installed on City property in the area
of Butler Pond and Butler Storage Reservoir. The test wells were drilled to depths
ranging from 235 to 360-feet. Test well TW-2,near Butler Storage Reservoir appeared to
have sufficient groundwater to be considered a viable source. The three other test wells
did not identify sufficient water to be a viable bottled water source.
4. Preliminary Testing and Water Quality Analysis: Preliminary testing indicated the
test well was capable of a yield of approximately 43 gpm. Water quality samples
collected at the conclusion of the pumping test were analyzed according to the New York
State Sanitary Code, Part 5, Drinking Water Standards, including radiological, with
additional samples collected for Bromide, Hexavalent Chromium and UV Transmittance.
The water quality at test well TW-2 was in compliance with the New York State Sanitary
Code, Part 5, Sub-Part 5-1 standards for public water supplies, including radiological
analysis and within the range acceptable to JUST Goods for a bottled water source.
5. Production Well Installation: Based on the results of the pumping test performed on
Test Well TW-2, it was determined that sufficient water of acceptable quality was present
in the fractured bedrock aquifer. A production well was designed based on the site
specific conditions and installed in compliance with New York State Department of
Health(NYSDOH)and NYSDEC standards.
6. Production Well Testing and Evaluation: A 72-hour pumping test was performed
from December 1 to 4, 2014 in compliance with NYSDEC and NYSDOH guidelines.
The evaluation of the test data indicated the production well (PW-1) was capable of a
long term yield of 47 gallons per minute. No influence from pumping was identified at
test well TW-4, located approximately 875-feet from PW-1. No influence from pumping
was identified at Butler Storage Reservoir, located 233.5-feet from production well PW-
1.
Field water quality(Temperature,pH and Conductivity) was monitored at production
well PW-1 and from Butler Storage Reservoir for the duration of the pumping test to
evaluate for potential interconnection between the bedrock aquifer and the surface water
within the reservoir. No correlation between the surface water and the groundwater data
was identified.
7. Specific Capacity: The specific capacity of production well PW-1, based on the data
collected at the conclusion of the 72 hour pump test is 0.58 gallons per minute per foot of
drawdown (gpm/ft). At a maximum available drawdown of 105-feet, this would equate
JUST Goods,Inc.
Executive Summary
Bottled Water Source Exploration
January 30,2015
Page 3 of 4
to a theoretical maximum yield of 60.9 gpm.
8. GWUDI (Ground Water Under Direct Influence) Evaluation: Monitoring of
temperature, pH and conductivity of both the reservoir water and water from production
well PW-1 did not identify any correlation to indicate a connection between the surface
water reservoir and the bedrock aquifer. A microscopic particulate analysis (MPA)
sample collected prior to the completion of the pumping test did not identify any
biological materials indicative of surface water.
9. Water Quality: Water quality samples were collected at the conclusion of the pumping
test for analysis in accordance with the New York State Department of Health Bulk and
Bottled water quality standards. Based on the analytical results, the water is in
compliance with New York State Department of Health Bulk and Bottled water quality
standards.
10. Aquifer/Watershed Recharge Evaluation: An evaluation of the recharge capacity of
the watershed contributing to Butler Pond and Butler Storage Reservoir was performed to
confirm that the proposed withdrawal of groundwater would not impact the City of Glens
Falls water supply.
a) The static water level at production well PW-1 prior to the test varied was well above
the level of Butler Storage Reservoir. The ground surface at the test well is
approximately 806.5 feet above mean sea level. The high water level at Butler
Storage Reservoir is approximately 758.45 feet above mean sea level. The difference
in elevation indicates that the source of groundwater at production well PW-1 is not
Butler Storage Reservoir.
b) The proposed bottled water source, at maximum capacity, will only draw 4 to 11% of
the excess capacity of the recharge basin, not utilized by the City of Glens Falls. The
proposed bottled water source will not impact the City of Glens Falls water supply.
11. Potential Impacts to Groundwater Users: No drawdown influence was observed at
test well TW-4, located approximately 850-feet from production well PW-1, during the
72-hour pumping test. The nearest residential well is approximately 1,500-feet from the
production well. In addition, the elevation of production well PW-1 is significantly
above that of any of the property owners. Production well PW-1 will be drawing water
from an elevation that is actually above the ground elevation of the other groundwater
users on Butler Pond Road and the nearby roads at the base of the mountain. There is no
correlation between the production well PW-1 and any other private well and there
should be no impacts to any other groundwater wells in the area.
CONCLUSIONS
• Production well PW-1 is located within an artesian fractured bedrock aquifer.
Groundwater was encountered at approximately 122-feet below the surface.
• The well appears to intersect the source of a spring/seep located approximately 105-feet
east of the well.
• The Butler Reservoir System appears more than capable of supporting the desired

demand of 25,000,000 gallons per year, without any adverse impacts to the capacity of
the reservoir system.
• The aquifer appears capable of a long term continuous safe yield of at least 47 gpm,
without creating any adverse impacts to the Butler reservoir system and other
groundwater users.
• The water meets the water quality desired by Just Goods for a bottled water source and is
in compliance with the New York State Department of Health Bulk and Bottled water
quality standards.
• No evidence of surface organisms was identified and no correlation was found within the
field water quality between Butler Storage Reservoir and the well. The well is not
considered GWUDI(ground water under direct influence).
• The well does not impact any surface water reservoirs within the Glens Falls water shed.
• There is no evidence to indicate the use of the well will have an impact on any other
ground water wells within the area.
