1 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Criticality and Prioritization of Pipe Rehab Projects Annie Vanrenterghem Raven, Ph.D. Research Associate Professor Polytechnic Institute of NYU

2 2 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Assignment Choose best pipes candidates for rehab for the next year (short term) given a certain budget.

3 3 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Constraints Several thousands of miles of pipes Limited budget Many criteria to take into account Choices will have to be justified

4 4 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Water and Waste Water Rehabilitation Planning Buried Network Buried Non Network Above ground Network Above Ground Non network Water PipesValves; fittings Hydrants; Manholes Plant; Pumping Station Waste Water Sewer Storm Water Storm Drains

5 5 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Points of View Points of view: Time: long term and next year/short term Space: whole system; zone; cohort of pipes; pipe level Prioritize or optimize Problems to address: Structural Water quality Hydraulic (adequate pressure)

6 6 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Other Points of View Points of view: Time: long term and next year/short term Space: whole system; zone; cohort of pipes; pipe level Prioritize or optimize Problems to address: Structural Water quality Hydraulic (adequate pressure)

7 7 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Performance Indicators = Prioritize problems Zones cohorts Long-Term Rehabilitation Planning = Design CIP Based on stock and degradation Hydraulic Criticality and Vulnerability Failure Forecasting = Calculate the probability of failure for each year and each pipe Annual Rehabilitation Planning Macro analysis Input and output data at system, zone or cohort level Micro analysis Input and output data at pipe level The suite of tools

8 8 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Overall Context Legal GASB 34; no federal mandate; state or local incentives Physical Assets are ageing; in need of rehab (ASCE report card: D-) Water quality problems, decrease of hydraulic capacity Systems need to grow or shrink Natural Drought situations make leaks and breaks unacceptable Financial Capital needs ( to maintain and replace existing water infrastructure between 2003 and 2023) expected to be $277 billion; up to 2/3 for buried assets. (U.S. EPA, 2005) Gap between projected revenues and expenses Less public funding  Full cost pricing  rate increases Less demand/revenues due to conservation technologies, change in public behavior, current financial crisis.

9 9 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Rehab planning: challenges Buried A lot to replace (US: 1M+ mi; LV: 4K mi; NYC: 6K mi) Networks are scattered and ubiquitous; even at most sensitive areas Inspection, repair, replacement expensive and disruptive Degradation/failure/impact unknown or very spectacular…

10 10 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Spectacular failure…

11 11 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Rehab planning: challenges Multi-problems; multi-disciplinary, complex tasks involving multiple criteria. In the past, rehabilitation decisions have been pragmatic, opportunistic, and difficult to justify. In house DSS attempts; could be quite simplistic (matrix) and erroneous. No comprehensive research in the US. Lack of trust for advanced models (“black boxes”.) Funds are limited but business case of AM is still difficult to make.

12 12 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Rehab planning: Challenges with data If data does not exist, it has to be collected. Even simple solutions need data. Data is needed to populate the GIS and the HM, CMMS and AM system. Data collection is expensive. Data should be used for more than having a snap shot of the system at a given time, to set priorities. Prioritization should use the kind of advanced tools (used in other industries) that provide more answers and deal with uncertainty. This can be done at a rather low marginal cost. Added value and function to high price tools such as GIS, HM, CMMS. However the data must meet certain needs.

13 13 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Assignment Choose best pipes candidates for rehab for the next year (short term) given a certain budget.

14 14 UIM, Dec 9, 2008 Annual Rehab Planning Multi-Criteria Decision Making Model (Electre) uses reference profiles to mitigate uncertainty. Criteria express risk (probability x consequences of failure) as well as other relevant points of view. Data is collected at different levels of refining.
