1 Prioritizing Booster Pump Station Improvements Tom Peters, P.E. May 2, 2008

2 City of Bellevue WBPS Evaluation Overview ▼ Owns and operates 23 major water booster pump stations ▼ Pumped water service for over 60% of customers ▼ First overall technical evaluation of all pumping facilities and equipment

3 City of Bellevue WBPS Evaluation Project Goals ▼ Efficient distribution of maintenance dollars  Identify facilities whose failure significantly impacts system reliability  Rank WBPS in order of needed improvement  Develop costs to upgrade and Improve WBPS reliability  Asset management “building block ”

5 City of Bellevue WBPS Evaluation History ▼ Grown from merger and assumption of old water districts ▼ Some facilities developer constructed ▼ Historically wholesale water purchase from City of Seattle ▼ Member of Cascade Water Alliance

6 City of Bellevue WBPS Evaluation Project Challenges ▼ Multiple pump types ▼ Varying levels of building quality ▼ Below grade vaults ▼ Inefficient location of emergency power ▼ Absence of re- chlorination facilities

7 City of Bellevue WBPS Evaluation Project Challenges

8 Pump Station Information and Data ▼ Thorough review of as-builts, maintenance records, water production and previous studies ▼ Analysis of peak and average day consumption, by pump station and operating zone. ▼ Rigorous assessment of each pump station condition, with video taped operator interview ▼ Development of 10 system schematics summarizing basic system information
