Introduction
In February 1984, the City of Pittsburgh (City) established The Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority (PWSA) under the provisions of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The City charged the PWSA with the responsibility of carrying out a major Capital Improvements Program (CIP) designed to refurbish the infrastructure of the entire water system, including the water treatment plant and distribution system. This project was to ensure that the water system met the rapidly expanding water quality requirements of the federal and state Safe Drinking Water Acts.
In 1995, PWSA also became responsible for producing and supplying the water for City of Pittsburgh residents and maintaining and operating the water distribution system. Then, in 1999 PWSA became responsible for operating and maintaining the entire City of Pittsburgh sewer system.
Today, PWSA provides quality water and quality services to approximately 83,000 customers throughout the City of Pittsburgh. PWSA operates and maintains a 117 million gallons per day (MGD) rapid sand type treatment plant, a 26 MGD microfiltration plant, approximately 1,000 miles of water mains, over 25,000 valves and 7,400 fire hydrants, 1 raw water pump station, 10 finished water pump stations, 4 in‐ground reservoirs, 13 storage tanks (2 of which are above‐ground reservoirs), approximately 1,220 miles of sanitary, storm, and combined sewers, 29,000 manholes, 27,000 catch basins and inlets, 38 Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) outfalls, 185 storm outfalls, and four wastewater pump stations.
PWSA's vision is to provide water and wastewater services that meet or exceed regulations and customer expectations at the lowest possible cost.
CapitalImprovementProgram
Overview
PWSA's Capital Improvement Program focuses on sustaining cost‐effective operations, while optimizing the system's asset performance and life expectancy. The 2017‐2021 Capital Improvement Program invests in programs which consider risk and consequence of asset failure and levels of service benefits.
Development and Approval Process
PWSA’s CIP process begins each year in January when project nominations are solicited from the entire organization. At the completion of the nomination period, the Planning Department screens and evaluates the nominated projects using a predefined scoring system and recommends which projects should be considered for further planning. Further planning efforts consist of the preparation of a Project Sheet, which provides more detailed information on a project’s potential scope options, risks, schedule, and the development of a preliminary cost estimate. This process lasts several months and culminates with the presentation of the updated CIP to PWSA’s Board of Directors.
Page 3
Projects that are not selected for execution at any stage will be re‐assessed during the next year’s CIP development process.
Capital Project Prioritization
Due to funding limitations and the need to renew/replacing a significant amount of aging infrastructure, the following criteria are used to evaluate and prioritize capital projects:
Safety ‐ Potential health and safety risks to personnel and the public if action is not taken Regulatory Compliance – Regulatory compliance schedule and potential fines for non‐compliance Reliability/Operational Flexibility – Location, age, and condition of infrastructure and risk if action is not
taken Capacity – Meets community health needs and growth, as needed Operations and Maintenance Efficiency – Potential for operating cost savings Regional Cooperation/Stewardship – Coordination with external stakeholders or meeting the
communities needs Level of Service – Improvement to customer service Sustainability – Energy efficiency and “green” approach to improving water quality
Funding Sources
The PWSA Capital Improvement Program is funded through several primary sources to which specific programs and projects are allocated. These funding sources include, but are not limited to, PWSA Future Capital Bond Authorizations, cost shares with other utilities, and grants. PWSA is dedicated to identifying and pursuing funding from all potential sources to offset planned capital investments.
Capital Improvement Plan Organization
The CIP is organized into seven project classes (types):
Water Treatment Plant Water Pumping and Storage Water Distribution System, which includes lead service line replacements Wastewater System Stormwater System Green Infrastructure Miscellaneous
Each project class is then made up of individual projects. Projects are defined based upon current information, which range from annual allowances for asset renewal and/or replacement activities, to major, multiple phase facility renewal projects.
Page 4
The following information is provided for each project:
Project Class – Type of project.
Project Name – Descriptive name assigned to the project.
Project No. – Unique number assigned to track the project from inception to completion. This number is established once a project is approved.
Neighborhood/Ward – Project location(s) based on the City of Pittsburgh’s Geographical Information System (GIS).
Status – Phase in the project life‐cycle (i.e. assessment/design/construction).
Priority – Criteria utilized to prioritize the project.
Project Description ‐ A basic understanding of the project’s intent and scope of work.
Project Justification ‐ A detailed explanation to why the project is needed.
Risk(s) ‐ Outlines the risk(s) to PWSA if the project is delayed or is not selected.
Impact on Operations – Describes the anticipated impact to PWSA’s operations when the project is completed.
Alternatives to the Recommended Action – Lists the alternatives that were considered or evaluated.
Funding Source(s) – Proposed funding source(s) for the project.
Commitment Schedule – Preliminary award schedule for the project in thousands of dollars.
Cash Flow Summary – Preliminary cash flow for the project in thousands of dollars.
Note: Costs shown are concept level costs, including contingencies, and are based on previous reports, CIPs, or similar type projects, and are subject to change as the projects are more completely assessed through the project phases. Construction costs shown are escalated from the estimated midpoint of construction, at 3% per year, and include allowances for construction management and inspection and design services during construction. Design costs shown are based on pre‐defined percentages based on the estimated construction cost.
