The purpose of this Regional Needs Assessment (RNA) is to identify conveyance system improvement (CSI) projects and costs in order to provide a baseline for conducting benefit/cost analyses of potential Infiltration and Inflow (I/I) reduction projects.
Flow monitoring and modeling data and assumptions specifically developed for the I/I Control Program were used to project CSI project needs to allow for an accurate comparison of benefits and costs between CSI projects and I/I reduction projects. As a result, the complete list of CSI projects reported here differs from what is included in the Regional Wastewater Services Plan (RWSP), as updated in 2004. The major difference is that CSI projects identified in this RNA are projected through 2050 rather than 2030 - the planning horizon for the RWSP. Additionally, the more recent and comprehensive flow metering and modeling data used differs from that used during the update of the RWSP. This resulted in some modification of CSI projects expected to be needed by 2030. While some differences exist between the CSI projects identified in this RNA and those in the RWSP, this latest list of needs should not be viewed as a departure from recommendations contained in the RWSP. Rather it should be viewed as providing a baseline for conducting benefit/cost analyses of potential I/I reduction projects using assumptions and data developed specifically for the I/I Control Program.
