In 2015, GMC and Greeley and Hansen were hired to perform a Water Resource Master Plan for Greenville Water (GW). GW is supplied water from Lake Keowee and two mountain reservoirs (Table Rock and North Saluda) in which the entire mountain watersheds (approximately 30,000 acres) are underdeveloped and owned by GW.
The scope of work included a review of previous studies and existing distribution system, evaluation of regulatory compliance requirements, development of service area population and water demand projections, evaluation of raw water supply and performed safe yield analysis based on droughts of record on GW’s two protected reservoirs (Table Rock and North Saluda). The scope also addressed climate resiliency with a climate forecast to the year 2100, reviewed and addressed areas of improvement for inflow quantity/quality monitoring into GW’s two protected reservoirs and developed a surface water runoff model utilizing SWAT to model stream inflow for a more sophisticated real-time reservoir operation.
GMC is one of the most comprehensive multi-disciplined architecture and engineering firms in the Southeast.
