Abstract | The crucial issue of assuring an adequate potable water supply to the Washington, D.C., Metropolitan Area (WMA) has been a subject of intense debate for at least 20 years and of concern for many more. Increased reliance on the Potomac River, which is subject to extreme fluctuations in flow, prompted this study of the most cost-effective ways to ensure an extension of water supply availability.
