Expeditionary Water Packaging System (EWPS) (Navy)
Abstract
Test a water packaging solution that will alleviate safety hazards and logistics burdens associated with the distribution of unregulated bottled water to deployed forces. The EWPS will provide a portable water packaging system for all phases of the Marine Expeditionary Unit, Marine Expeditionary Battalion, and Marine Expeditionary Force deployments. The primary outputs are provide the capability to package and distribute potable water for less than $1.00 per liter, increase warfighter survivability by eliminating the threat of contamination to unregulated packaged water through sabotage or indirect means, and increase operational flexibility of Marine forces deployed in expeditionary environments.
