Abstract | The purpose was to develop a systematic method for evaluating regional water supply alternatives. A regional model determines the least cost arrangement of water supply facilities for meeting a fixed set of regional water demands. The model minimizes the cost of source development, treatment, and transmission, subject to the constraint that all demands must be satisfied. Two regions of North Carolina, Buncombe County and the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill Research Triangle area, are examined using these techniques. (Author) |
