Pipe Dreams In recent years Montana and other westernstates have experienced severe drought conditions. Currently large portions ofthe American Southwest are in extreme drought, and some climate models suggestthat these droughts could last decades. As a result, many large cities indrought stricken regions are exploring alternative options for sources of theirwater. Among some of the more popular options for cities are desalination (forcoastal cities), non-potable recycled water (through so-called “purple pipes” systems),and potable recycled water. Billings is the largestcity in Montana, and is one of the state’s largest industrial centers. Inanticipation of worsening drought conditions and continued growth of the city,the City Council has asked your team to develop a water-recycling planappropriate for Billings. In doing so, they have asked you to: • Project the expected waterneeds of the city over the next 30 years; • Compare the costs ofwater treatment under the non-potable versus potable recycling systems(including the building of new facilities and upgrading of existinginfrastructure); • Make a recommendation for how the cityshould proceed over the next 30 years. % g& ~ J( K, I" c$ _! e2 f
