now Decome criucal 10 Prince William County.

The fortunate influx of industry to Prince William County, even today, is inhibited by the limited water supply available from existing resources.

Internal Prince William County water resources are limited.' A large percent of these resources are controlled or used by agencies external to the County.

The Occoquan Creek, the major portion of which watershed lies in Prince William County, serves as the main source of supply for the City of Alexandria, a large portion of Fairfax County, the Fort Belvoir military reservation and a significant portion of eastern Prince William County. This system is operated by Fairfax County Water Authority.

The ability of the Occoquan to pieet this continually growing need is limited. This stream cannot satisfy the thirst for water that will grow even greater as the area population and industries expand.
