Studies related to the Charlottesville-Albemarle water supply, including summary recommendations. Also includes required permits and applications related to water supply projects.
RWSA-sponsored studies

- Recommends planning for water supply demand in 2050 to be between 18-21 millions of gallons per day (MGD)[study 2].
- Feasibility Study for Upgrading the Ragged Mountain Dam, Gannett Fleming, February 2003
- Includes engineering investigations related to design adequacy of Lower Ragged Mountain Dam with upgrade alternatives[ref 1].

- Written as an update to the 1979 Watershed Management Plan, describes the problems of pollution and sedimentation and includes recommendations for increased monitoring[study 1].
- Safe Yield Study, Gannett Fleming, January 2004
- Documents a safe yield of 13.3 MGD (revised downward in July 2004 report)[study 3].
- Demand Analysis for the Urban Service Area, Gannett Fleming, May 2004
- Recommends planning for water supply demand in 2055 to be 18.7 MGD with 5% conservation measures[study 4].
- Water Supply Alternatives Supplemental Evaluation, Gannett Fleming, July 2004
- Documents the downward adjustment of current safe yield from 13.3 MGD to 12.8 MGD (2002).
- Projects the safe yield in 2055 to be 8.8 MGD.
- Identifies the goal of finding 9.9 MGD in new water supply (18.7 MGD - 8.8 MGD = 9.9 MGD)[study 5].
- Community Water Supply Project, Gannett Fleming & Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, June 30, 2006
