City of Buffalo – Water System Study
Description:
The City of Buffalo, Missouri secured TOTH’s services to complete an evaluation of its entire potable water system. The evaluation included updating and calibrating the city’s existing hydraulic model in order to perform an analysis of the City’s system. The City’s system is comprised of over 40 miles of pipe and serves approximately 1,720 metered connections with three elevated storage towers and four deep wells.
The City’s existing hydraulic model had not been updated since the early 2000’s. TOTH compared the existing model to maps and as-built plans to bring the line work up-to-date. System demands were also updated. Finally, TOTH utilized fire hydrant flow data to calibrate model results to actual field pressures and flows.
