The BEAR Water Distribution System is a system which draws water from a natural source, purifies, stores, and delivers the water while maintaining sufficient water pressure, quantity, and quality for an entire forward-deployed base in austere locations. The water system also has the capability to remove and store the base wastewater at a remote location. The water system is modular in design and consists of a series of pumping, piping, and storage equipment; applicable fittings; and other components such as manual and automatic fluid control mechanisms. The system is designed to provide service in increments of 1100 personnel and can theoretically be expanded upon indefinitely. One complete increment is comprised of one Source Run Subsystem, one Water Production Subsystem (1500 ROWPU OR 600 ROWPU), three 550 Initial Subsystems, three 550 Follow-on Subsystems, and one Industrial Operations and Flightline Extension.
