General Information
Long Range Masterplan

Long-Range Capital Planning-CIP Masterplan (Under Construction)
The District’s Capital Improvement Plan (CIP or the Plan) has been designed to correct structural and hydraulic deficiencies in the collection system. The sewer system was evaluated using criteria based on operation costs, frequency of maintenance, structural conditions, risk of failure and hydraulic adequacy. Pipelines within the system are compared and those exhibiting a higher risk of failure based on the evaluation criteria are given a higher priority for repair.
The District’s Plan is also used to determine which pipelines in the system may be approaching the end of their useful lives. Pipelines with a higher priority rating are placed on an increased maintenance schedule and are monitored more closely by the District. The Plan is being used to identify life cycle expectancies for equipment and structures at the Treatment Plant as well.
