Overview

Timmons Group prepared a feasibility study for the development of a public water system to provide potable water service to portions of northwest Guilford County that are currently served by groundwater sources. This study has determined the steps, challenges and probable costs to plan, design, construct and operate the required water infrastructure. The results of the study will be utilized by local government officials from the towns of Oak Ridge, Stokesdale and Summerfield and Guilford County to determine if a regional water system should be developed and how the system should be governed. A Regional water model was created for this study to assist with sizing of all proposed water infrastructure, locations of elevated storage tanks and pressure zone boundaries.
