Abstract
This three-volume report describes the development of a water supply simulation model (WSSM), a system of computer programs that allows for a systematic evaluation of the physical and economic characteristics of a water distribution system in a spatial framework. The WSSM concept views a water utility as a network overlayed upon a spatial distribution of supply and demand. The model has been calibrated and tested on several water supply systems including a small utility in New Vienna, Ohio, and the Kenton County Water District No. 1 in Kenton County, Kentucky. Volume 1 of this study describes the development of the model and its underlying principals.
