1 Water Pump Stations Condition Assessment and Life Cycle Planning PNWS-AWWA Spring Conference Presented by: Marshall Meyer PE and Shelby Asato PE

2 Agenda Background and Project Need Asset Management Philosophy Planning/Evaluation Approach Development Capital Improvement Plan Flexible Long-Range Capital Improvement Plan and Prioritization 2

3 Background & Project Need

4 Background & Project Need 22 Pump stations Built in the 1960s and upgraded in the 1980s 19 Pump stations evaluated, 3 pump stations recently upgraded

5 Capital O&M Asset Management Philosophy

6 Likelihood of Failure (LoF) Asset Management Philosophy Risk = LoF x CoF Medium Risk Low Risk Consequence of Failure (CoF) High Risk Medium Risk Likelihood of Failure Condition Capacity Consequence of Failure Supply Redundancy Number of Customers Impacted Impact Duration

7 Asset Management Philosophy Risk = Consequence x Likelihood Qualitative Approach Quantitative Approach Less Info Required More Info Required

8 Planning/Evaluation Approach Development

9 Overall Pump Station Impact 1 1 CONDITION 4 5 CAPACITY Good Firm capacity exceeds required capacity Fair Poor Very Poor <90% Required Capacity 1 4 REDUNDANCY Not Critical Failure would not result in significant loss of water service Somewhat Critical Critical but Redundant Critical Failure would result in loss of water service to customers

10 Individual Component of Pump Station: Focus on Needs Is it safe? What condition are the critical components? Is the hydraulic capacity adequate? What is needed to remedy the issues? Can we get parts for it? Are components readily accessible for maintenance?

11 Field Evaluation Approach

12 Pump Station Component Evaluation Categories 1 CONDITION CONDITION 5 Very Good 10+ years likely Fair 5-10 years likely Very Poor <3 years likely 1 CRITICALITY 4 Not Critical Somewhat Critical Critical but Redundant Very Critical 1 SERVICEABILITY 4 Very Good Difficult Access Obsolete Parts Safety Issue

13 Capital Improvement Plan

14 Remaining Life Score Pump Station Component Evaluation Remaining Life Maximum Likelihood of Failure Level Impending Failure Zone Years Pump Station Structure Generator VFDs Pressure Reducing Valves and Control Valves Electrical System (MCB, MTS/ATS, MCC) Starters Rotating Assembly (Pump, Motor) Flow Meter

15 15 Capital Improvement Plan Station Component Condition Rating Action time frame <3 years 5+/- years 5-10 years 10+/- years >10 years Calendar window Long term planning
