The City of Fort Bragg is seeking proposals from qualified consultants interested in contracting with the City to prepare a Water Systems Distribution Master Plan. The purpose of the distribution master plan is to identify and prioritize critical water system improvements to the City of Fort Bragg treated water distribution system to ensure that a resilient system with adequate water facilities necessary to meet current and future demand remains available to customers in perpetuity The City of Fort Bragg owns and operates its water utility from source water to customer delivery. The City of Fort Bragg has a Water System Study and Master Plan that was completed by John Carollo Engineers, and adopted by the City Council on April 14, 1986 (36 years ago). The purpose of the study and master plan was to evaluate several aspects of the water supply system including present and future water supply sources; water treatment plant components; bypassing Newman Reservoir; physical improvement of existing sources; and computer simulation of the existing and future distribution systems using University of Kentucky's "Computer Analysis of Flow in Pipe Networks." Recommendations within the plan were based on information contained within the 1980 General Plan and were estimated to include development through the year 2000. Much of the work recommended from the 1986 plan has been completed and numerous changes within the community have taken place affecting current water usage as well as future demand. The City has since adopted new General Plans (2008 and 2012), installed numerous capital improvements to the water system, and worked on a reuse plan for the Mill Site property covering about 1/3 of the City that upon development will create new demands on the water system. In November 2013, the City contracted with KASL Engineers to prepare a Water Facilities Study, which includes existing water collection, distribution, and capacity. This study also identified and prioritized critical improvements to the City water supply and treated water distribution systems, network modeling of the existing treated water distribution system, and evaluated the capacity of raw water and treated water systems. They created an in-house Network Hydraulic Model of the City's distribution system for the analysis. That model was updated with the proposed industrial north side water extension in 2019.
