Water and Sewer System Facility Planning
ln 2009, DC WASA completed two very significant infrastructure assessment and planning efforts. The first, the Water System
Facility Plan, assessed all water system infrastructures and made prioritized recommendations for improvements to the water
pumping, transmission, storage and distribution systems. This document provÍded the basis for a ramp up, beginning in FY 2010, of
the replacement of one percent of the water infrastructure per year. The second, the Sewer System Facility Plan culminated a five
year effort involving sewer inspection and condition assessment, development of a sewer GIS and database, hydraulic monitoring
and modeling to assess system capacity and the development of prioritized activities for system improvement. This Sewer System
Facilities Plan identified a significant increase in funding needed for sewer infrastructure improvements. This increased funding will
ramp up beginning in FY 2010 with full program implementation in FY 2015.
