Wiley|Wilson recently completed modeling and analysis of the City of Harrisonburg’s water distribution system to re-apportion 22 MG of finished water storage, formulating new pressure zone configurations to reduce energy consumption and improve the hydraulic performance of the City’s water system. This work included calibration and update of their existing water system computer model including integration of GIS and topographic data, detailed analysis and mapping of fire flow availabilities, and design of 18.5 MG of new secure storage within the system. This work enabled closure of the last uncovered finished water reservoir in Virginia. Wiley|Wilson was instrumental in helping the City obtain “Green Reserve” ARRA funding for the final project and executing these funds in an outstanding manner, leading VDH to submit this project to the USEPA as a “showcase” project. Sustainable aspects of this project include reduction in chlorine usage, elimination of supplemental mixing, reduced pumping, and beneficial reuse of the former reservoir infrastructure.
