The '''Global Water Campaign''', or '''GWC''', was a 24<sup>th</sup> Century company based in the [[East African Protectorate]] specializing in purifying and transporting melt [[Dihydrogen Oxide|water]] from [[Mount Kilimanjaro]]. Most notably, the company operated the [[GWC Trans-African Pipelines]] that carried the still relatively clean melt water for distribution across the entire continent.<ref name="bnet">http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13287</ref>


The '''Global Water Campaign''', or '''GWC''', was a 24<sup>th</sup> Century company specializing in purifying and transporting melt [[Dihydrogen Oxide|water]] from [[Mount Kilimanjaro]]. The company operated the [[GWC Trans-African Pipelines]] along the [[Tsavo Highway (Location)|Tsavo Highway]] for distribution across the continent and built a [[A2 Hydroelectric Facility|hydroelectric dam]] in the African jungle near [[Tsavo]].<ref name="bnet">http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13287</ref>
It is unknown what happened to the company but by the 26<sup>th</sup> Century, but the main water purification facility has fallen into disrepair, while other facilities seem to be more or less active. It is possible that the activity of the GWC continued elsewhere, as evidenced by still relatively new water barrels with "GWC" printed on them during [[2552]] and the operational status of some of the facilities.<ref>''[[Halo 3: ODST]] level [[NMPD HQ (Level)|NMPD HQ]]''</ref>


It is unknown what happened to the company but by the 26<sup>th</sup> Century, but the main water purification complex has fallen into disrepair, overgrown with the African jungle. The hydroelectric facility seems to be at least partially active. It is possible that the activity of the GWC continued elsewhere, as there were still relatively new water barrels with "GWC" printed on them on the [[NMPD Headquarters]] building, during [[2552]].<ref>''[[Halo 3: ODST]] level [[NMPD HQ (Level)|NMPD HQ]]''</ref>
==Known Facilities==
*'''[[Ghost Town (Level)|Water Purification Plant]]''' -  Located in the jungles near [[Tsavo]] in [[Kenya]], this complex was once home to the Global Water Campaign. By the 26<sup>th</sup> Century, this complex has been abandoned long ago and fallen into disrepair, overgrown with the African jungle.
*'''[[A2 Hydroelectric Facility]]''' - Located along the [[Nkuu River]] near the main complex, the hydroelectric facility seems to be active by [[2552]]. The hydroelectric facility was briefly occupied by the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] during the [[Battle of Earth]] in late 2552 as they searched for [[SPARTAN-117]], eventually routed by the [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartan]] and scattered [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] ground forces and a [[D77H-TCI Pelican Dropship|gunship]].<ref>''[[Halo 3]]'', [[Sierra 117 (Level)]]</ref>
*'''[[GWC Trans-African Pipelines]]''' - Located along the [[Tsavo Highway (Location)|Tsavo Highway]], the pipes distribute water across the entire continent.
*'''[[Voi Municipal Water Pump House 03]]''' - One of the many pump houses along the pipelines, supplying water to the industrial town of [[Voi]].
