1 A Long-Term Water Master Plan For Our Water Future

2 WE ARE ALL WATER STEWARDS

3 We sustain, capture, treat, move, store and deliver 145,000,000 gallons of water every day

4 We work with partners to protect the source in our watersheds Wai anae High School students installing stream gauge

5 We take only what is needed and do not waste it Aquifer in the Hālawa Shaft

6 We produce 8 million gallons of recycled water every day to use for irrigation and industry instead of drinking water

7 O ahu s Conservation Success Story 10 billion gallons per year are now saved for other uses today vs.1990

8 Are we prepared to provide safe, dependable, and affordable water for the next generation?

10 The BWS Water Master Plan Looks ahead 30 years Evaluates the entire water system Identifies necessary improvements Balances needs with costs of providing water to our customers

11 Changes in Population and Water Use Projections by 2040

12 The BWS Water System is Large and Complex

13 We conducted a comprehensive condition assessment of our water infrastructure Extraction

14 The number of water main breaks has been decreasing. Some good news about water main breaks: their number has been steadily decreasing

15 We analyzed the entire system for its capacity to handle the water needed for the 2040 population

16 Climate change and other trends were factored into the plan s recommendations

17 Major recommendations of the Water Master Plan

18 Develop new drinking water supplies for Ewa-Waipahu and Honolulu

19 Honouliuli Water Recycling Facility Double the amount of non-potable water produced today

20 Most of our pumps are in good condition Rehabilitate some and build new ones where needed

21 About 90 percent of our 171 reservoirs are in good condition Build additional storage in Ewa-Waipahu, Honolulu, and Wai anae areas Replace two reservoirs

22 Renew/replace high priority pipelines and install new pipelines to add capacity in areas of greatest growth

23 Continue the current capital improvement budget of $80 million per year and then ramp up as needed

24 Public Review and Board Adoption of the BWS s Water Master Plan Available Tentative Adoption

25 Next Steps: 30-Year Capital Improvement Program It will define and sequence projects, including cost estimates

26 A Financial Plan and Rate Study may result in adjustments to water rates
