Interest in a regional water system resulted from repeated water shortages and water quality challenges throughout the north-central region of Montana. The Rocky Boy’s / North Central Montana Regional Water System (RB/NCMRWS), as authorized by Congress, is intended to address the water quantity and quality challenges of the Rocky Boy’s Reservation and numerous off-reservation communities throughout north central Montana. In early 2006, AE2S was part of the team selected by the NCMRWA to provide assistance in addressing the challenges of creating a large regional water system. Later, the Chippewa Cree Tribe retained an AE2S-led team to design/construct the tribal components of the project as well. Project components include the raw water intakes structure and pumping station, a 35 MGD membrane water treatment plant, and a 56-mile transmission pipeline.

AE2S was retained to prepare a Preliminary Engineering Report, a Feasibility Study, and ultimately to construct a regional water system serving Ransom and Sargent Counties in North Dakota. The $21 million project currently serves over 800 rural connections in seven counties and 3 communities with a safe and reliable water supply. For a more detailed description click here.
