Abstract

Abstract
Centralizing allocation of water can potentially benefit community water service. Water managers need robust data, modeling, and decision support tools to best allocate water. This report studies optimization modeling as a potential solution to reduce the amount of community water service systems (ASADAS) in Alajuela Costa Rica. Currently there are numerous ASADAS, which represents a challenge for management and adequate governmental support. Three systems are used as an example. The objectives of this project are: (a) Create an optimization model to improve water delivery in decentralized community water systems in Alajuela, Costa Rica. (b) Integrate environmental water constraints in optimization model. This model can be used by decision makers to join ASADAS and best allocate water among them, including ways of balancing the environmental and human water requirements. This model identified 5 links between water sources and communities; governmental accompaniment is needed to facilitate the systems joins within communities.

Files:
Semester Project Report: written report.
GAMS code: script for the optimization model.
Data set: excel spreadsheet, data used for the optimization model.
