A fuel supply system includes a first fuel supply line coupled in flow communication with a first fuel nozzle and configured to channel a first fuel flow to the first nozzle. A second fuel supply line coupled in flow communication with a second fuel nozzle and configured to channel a second fuel flow to the second nozzle. A water supply line coupled in flow communication with a water injection nozzle and configured to channel a water flow to the water injection nozzle. An atomizing fluid supply circuit coupled in flow communication with the first and second fuel supply lines. The atomizing fluid supply circuit configured to channel an atomizing fluid flow to an atomizing nozzle and into atomizing contact with the water flow. The atomizing fluid includes a portion of at least one of the first fuel flow and the second fuel flow.
