Description	The drinking water supply of the city of Nikšić, the second largest city in the Republic of Montenegro, is secured from a nearby karstic groundwater resources. Water is transported from two different directions (two sources) into the distribution system. At the end of the distribution system, on the opposite side of water resources, there is a counter tank, as the only storage capacity for leveling the inflow and consumption in the system. However, the interplay of the three vital water supply capacities (two water sources and counter tank) does not meet the requirements of regular supply, to the point where it is necessary to disconnect the tank, from regular operation. The existing system, which operates without leveling space, is fraught with numerous problems, ranging from the appearance of significant temporal and spatial pressure variations, to the inability of delivering the needed quantities to the peripheral parts of the system, in seasonal peaks of consumption. During International project Drinkadria (2013–2016), efforts for solving numerated problems were done. This paper provides an overview of activities on system operation analysis, based on simulation modeling and definition of technical solution, proposed in the form of subzoning. Realization of proposed subzones will put all capacities in the full operation state, with the realization of stable pressures in the system, and with a regular supply of all parts of the system in all predictable modes of consumption.
