1 DWSD Strategies to Reduce Water Loss and Energy Use MARCH 14, 2013 Presented by: PJ Dada City of Detroit Water and Sewerage Department Great Lakes Great Challenges Forum 2013 Oakland University

2 Detroit Water and Sewerage Department (DWSD) DWSD Provides o Water Treatment o Water Distribution o Wastewater Collection o Wastewater Treatment DWSD Customers o Retail Customers in City of Detroit o Wholesale Customers outside of Detroit

3 About DWSD Third largest municipal water and sewer utility in the United States Over $500 Million in revenue Provides services to more than 4 million retail and wholesale customers Service area of 1079 square miles Yellow - Wholesale Red - Retail

4 Water/ Wastewater Systems DWSD System Overview 5 Water Treatment Plants 20 Water Booster Stations 10 Wastewater Collection Stations 1 Wastewater Treatment Plant 7 CSO Basins 13 In-system Storage Devices 200 Remote Monitoring/Control Sites (Valve, Pressure, Sewer Meter, Precipitation Gauge, CSO outfall, Dam, Level)

5 DWSD Water Audit Overview 1. What is a water audit? It is an accounting procedure used to determine the amount of unaccounted-for water in a water distribution system. 2. When do conduct water audits? According to AWWA standards, every two years. 3. Who conducts the water audits? DWSD Staff Contractors 4. Why is there a need for a water audit? To provide an estimate of the individual components of the water loss and to make recommendations for reducing the water loss volume where practical.

6 DWSD Water Audit Overview Implementation of recommendations will reduce water losses. All water consumption is Revenue Water or Non-revenue Water (NRW). Revenue Water includes all water which is charged to customers and funds the utility. Non-revenue Water includes all water which produces no revenue and is the sum of all authorized unbilled uses, Apparent Losses and Real Losses. Currently DWSD Estimates the volume of unaccounted for water (UFW) system wide by subtracting the volume of water sold from the volume of water produced.

7 DWSD Strategies Steps to DWSD to Reduce Real and Apparent Water Loss: 1. Continue leak surveying as part of a comprehensive maintenance program: Since 2005, nearly 3,500 miles have been surveyed by DWSD and its consultant. Approximately 30 MGD of leaks identified. Estimated savings from leak repairs equals $5M. 2. Record valve closure and opening accurately, since partially closed valves affect water distribution through the system (1125 valves). 3. Repair or isolate inoperable valves. 4. Projects are underway to update the accuracy of High Lift Pumping at the plants (venturi meter rehabilitation, improvements to pumps, motors & instrumentation).

8 DWSD Strategies Steps DWSD to Reduce Real and Apparent Water Loss: 5. Establish a program to continue water main replacements. 6. Decrease response time to repair water main failures and leaks. 7. Install fire hydrant security devices to restrict unauthorized access. 8. Shutting off services to vacant and abandoned homes. 9. Installation of DWSD s new retail meters and AMR (Automatic Meter Read) system will greatly improve the estimate of Apparent Losses. 10. Review meters on annual basis to ensure proper reading and sizing (low flow rates, max hour flows)

9 DWSD Strategies Other Measures: Evaluating System Operations Reducing Operating Pressures Altering Supply Balance Between Two Master Meters Approach Hydraulic Modeling & Evaluation Field Testing Implementation of Recommendations

10 Water Audit Benefits Summary of water loss program benefits: 1. Proactively addressing water loss saves money. 2. Overall operation costs are reduced, the savings passed on to retail and wholesale customers. 3. Optimizes the dollars expended to operate and maintain system. 4. Allows the community to re-prioritize their water system capital program. 5. Improves creditability with stakeholders. 6. Reduce the usage of the Great Lakes water.

11 DWSD ENERGY MANAGEMENT PLAN MARCH 14, 2013 Presented by: PJ Dada City of Detroit Water and Sewerage Department Great Lakes Great Challenges Forum 2013

18 Aggregate DWSD Sites DTE approved DWSD s application for aggregating 10 site demands into a single account. DWSD s goal is optimize water and sewer system sites to use power at different times that will reduce cost overall. Total power used at different rates is beneficial in cost as varies throughout the day. Estimated savings from this program will be $2.5M/year.

19 Pump Optimization Program (POP) A computer Pumping Optimization Program (POP) that is able to serve as a guideline for the System Controls Center (SCC) operators to establish optimal pumping operations. The POP evaluates the characteristics of a potentially large number of pump groups to determine the most cost-effective group of pumps that meet a specified pressure set point for a given booster station discharge.

20 Peak Shave Pilot Peak shave operation of the generators will allow the generators to share the facility load. The generators will only take the load that is over the facility contract capacity. Peak shaving will save DWSD from the demand charge and the yearly minimum charge associated with the demand charge. Peak shaving is under DTE s Rider 3 rate which requires a reservation charge. DWSD and DTE are currently negotiating the reservation charge.
