Wastewater System Capital Improvement Recommendations Summary-Long Term
I. ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN 50% REPLACEMENT VALUE
A. No particular / specific projects
B. goal is to “catch up” and then maintain value at 50% of useful life of the assets

II. NEED AND RISK BASED APPROACH

A. Prepare a 5 year specific plan
B. Years 6-40 (based on probability of failure and consequence)
1. Pump Stations
i. rank & address 1 per year
2. Gravity Sewers
i. approx. 210,000 ft. (40 miles/13% 0f system) 1st 20 yrs
