The District's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a five-year planning schedule with each year approved in the correlating fiscal year. Long-term capital planning is a dynamic process and is part of the district's overall strategic plan. Capital planning involves identifying current and future needs and prioritizing them through an assessment process.

Projects listed in the CIP are reviewed annually by the district's staff to allow the program to be more responsive to changing needs, regulations, funding availability, and demand projections.

2018-19 Capital Improvement Program

Project	Type	Description	Current Phase	Projected Completion
AMR Meter Replacement Program	Water Meter	Install Automated Meter Reading (AMR) devices to allow for more accurate reads and a more efficient process to collect meter read data.	Construction	Jul 2017
Plant 134 Hydroelectric Generation Facility	Hydroelectric Generator	Install a hydroelectric generation facility to offset energy cost of operating the treatment plant. (Construction complete, official opening pending).	Operation	July 2018
Orange Street Sewer Main Replacement	Replacement Wastewater  Collection Main	This project will replace, re-line or pipe-burst approximately 200 linear feet of wastewater main with offset joints and broken pipe defects.	Planning	December 2018
Ferndale Ave Sewer Main Replacement	Wastewater	A 6-inch diameter main provides more potential for main blockage to occur.  Current standards require minimum 8-inch diameter for mains. This section of pipeline has 9 direct lateral connections and serves approximately 400 single family residential units upstream. Approximately 600 linear feet of pipeline will be reconstructed with 9 lateral reconnections also required.	Planning	August 2018

Initially the facility will treat approximately 6 million gallons per day and will be expandable to be able to treat ultimate build out of approximately 10 million gallons per day.	Procurement	March 2022
Plant 134 Transmission Main to Upper Zone	Water	This project will create a new freeway crossing point at high elevation,  greatly enhancing system efficiency and flexibility.
