Abstract

This project provides a better understanding of pressure management practices under both baseline and optimized conditions in drinking water utilities in the United States. The research presents case studies from small, medium, and large water utilities both before and after implementing the pressure management and monitoring criteria outlined in the WRF project 4109, Criteria for Optimized Distribution Systems. The final report makes recommendations for modifications to this criteria. In addition to the final report, the Appendices are available under Project Resources/Project Papers. Published in 2014.
