Key studies related to the Charlottesville-Albemarle Community Water Supply Plan

Raw Water Supply Demand Analysis by Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, October 1997

This report recommends planning for water supply demand in 2050 to be between 18 MGD and 21 MGD.

Safe Yield Study by Gannett Fleming, January 2004

This report documents a safe yield of 13.3 MGD (revised downward in July 2004 report)

Demand Analysis for the Urban Service Area by Gannett Fleming, May 2004

This report recommends planning for water supply demand in 2055 to be 18.7 MGD with 5% conservation measures.

Water Supply Alternatives Supplemental Evaluation by Gannett Fleming, July 2004

This report documents the downward adjustment of current safe yield from 13.3 MGD to 12.8 MGD (2002).

It projects the safe yield in 2055 to be 8.8 MGD.

It identifies the goal of finding 9.9 MGD in new water supply (18.7 MGD - 8.8 MGD = 9.9 MGD).
