Aqua Pura delivery program

The Aqua Pura delivery program was the trade and delivery of Aqua Pura in the Capital Wasteland in 2277, following the Battle of Project Purity.
==Background==
After Project Purity was activated, the Capital Wasteland Brotherhood of Steel quickly set up an agreement with the Rivet City Council, negotiating their assistance in the delivery of the purified water to the settlements throughout the wasteland, forming the Water Distribution Network. The Rivet City Security Force was then enlisted to escort wasteland scavengers and tradesmen through their travels to settlements in order to trade or simply deliver the water. Led by a scribe named Bigsley at the Jefferson Memorial, and by an officer named Lepelletier at Rivet City, the difficulties with the deliveries, combined with the Brotherhood-Enclave War, began to take their toll. Many caravans never reported back in from their journeys, and others complained about the conditions. Many personnel were incompetent, as some Brotherhood of Steel initiates failed their cartography training and were unable to read a map. The mercenary organization Talon Company also began ambushing Aqua Pura caravans. In retaliation, the Brotherhood launched an attack against their main headquarters, Fort Bannister, with the goal of destroying all personnel and eliminating Commander Jabsco. The Brotherhood proved to be victorious in clearing out the fort and retrieving their stolen Aqua Pura.
Several groups and wastelander syndicates were formed in order to steal their own share of the water, since the Brotherhood refused to give the water to raiders, slavers, and other nefarious types. They additionally refused to give the water to ghouls, claiming that it was a waste since they had no need for fresh water. Bigsley, however, agreed to give an Underworld ghoul named Griffon barrels of Aqua Pura after he offered to pay for them. Members of the Brotherhood were split on their opinions of the matter, with some wanting to sell the water, and others claiming that they had more important things to worry about. Some soldiers saw the Brotherhood as being unable to handle the delivery program.
The Lone Wanderer could have helped resolve the issues with the program, by remedying the problem of members of the Church of the Children of Atom and the Apostles of the Eternal Light stealing and poisoning Megaton's Aqua Pura shipments. They could have also stopped an organized syndicate led by a man named Split Jack that ambushed caravans with the goal of deceiving and blackmailing Rivet City into paying for their "protection services".
==Appearances==
