1 WATER SUPPLY PLANS WESTMORELAND 1

2 1. Introduction Westmoreland is located at the south western side of Jamaica; the major towns are Negril, Little London, Grange Hill, and the capital Savanna-la-mar. It has an area of 807 square kilometres (311 square miles), making it Jamaica's eighth largest parish. There are over 10,000 acres (40 km²) of morass land, the largest part of which is called the Great Morass. The remaining area consists of several hills of moderate elevation, and alluvial plains along the coast. There are numerous rivers in the parish, of which the Cabaritta River, which is 39.7 kilometres long, is the largest. Other rivers include the Negril River, New Savanna, Morgan's, Gut, Smithfield, Bowens, Bluefields, Robins, Roaring, Great and Dean. 2. Existing Water Supply System There are 22 water supply facilities in the parish and these are served by 16 springs, 4 wells and 2 river supplied water treatment plant. Water Resource Surface Water The main surface water sources in Westmoreland are: Roaring River Venture River Cabarita Sweet River Water Supply Systems The total installed water production capacity in Westmoreland is just under 8 mgd. The major systems in the parish are the Roaring River and Bullstrode Water Supply Systems, which have a combined installed capacity of 5 mgd. The other supply systems in the parish include the Bluefields, Williamsfield, Carawina and Cave systems. (a) (b) The water treatment facilities in the parish are in need of upgrading to improve service reliability. The water supply network throughout the parish is aged and undersized, contributing to very high levels of non-revenue (NRW), estimated to be some 72%. The total length of the pipelines in the parish is estimated at 1, 280 kilometres. Information on the supply 2

3 network is presented in table 2.1 below. It would be noted that pipelines sized 4 inches (100mm) or less constitute almost 85% of the total length of the pipe network.

This was derived from the water balances that were prepared for each of the water supply systems in the parish. The water balances are based on flow measurements that were conducted at sections of the water supply network and examinations of customer and records. It would be noted that the average annual water production in the parish is approximately million cubic meters (2.8 billion gallons). Physical losses amount to 8.17 million cubic meters per year (1.8 billion gallons), which represents some 64% of the water produced. Commercial losses amount to 1.04 million cubic meters (0.23 billion gallons) per year (8.2% of production), largely attributed to unauthorized consumption Revenue water in the parish is only 3.52 M cubic meters (0.77 billion gallons) per year which is just below 28% of the water produced. 3

5 4. Water Requirement Parish Population General Using information supplied by the Statistical Institute of Jamaica, in 1991 the population in Westmoreland was 128,364. By 2001 it had grown to 138,948, showing a growth of 0.08%. The estiamted population is in year 2010, 152,531 persons. There are some 16,800 service connections in the parish which translates to a service coverage of about 45% of the parish population. Demand Centres The enumeration districts (EDs) that were used in the 2001 population census was used to establish priority areas that will be targeted to be provided with water supply. EDs with population densities in excess of 150 persons per square kilometres were grouped to form these demand centres.

Water Supply Improvement Plans 5.1 Introduction It is planned to undertake a number of water supply improvement works in Westmoreland to address supply deficiencies and to improve overall operational efficiencies. The planned works 9

10 will focus on reducing the high level of technical losses (estimated to be in excess of 64% of production), largely due to the aged water supply infrastructure; strengthening the transfer capacities of critical water transmission mains, to enable transfer of water within and between water supply systems and facilitating supply flexibility between water supply systems; and water supply extensions to areas that are not now been served. A comprehensive audit of the water supply systems in the parish will be undertaken in early stages in order to identify optimal steps that should be taken to deliver early gains in the reduction of NRW. This will include establishing district metered areas (DMAs) and setting up monitoring systems. 10

11 5.2 Summary of Proposed Projects and Cost Supply Zone Project Cost $ Jerusalem Mountain 178,560, Roaring River 1,282,604, Bluefields 1,032,886, Williamsfield 650,711, Carawina 168,516, Cave 153,426, Bulstrode 794,036, Petersville 75,459, Total 4,336,201, Detailed Audit of the Westmoreland Water Supply System The level of NRW in the parish is high, as shown in the previous sections. It is planned to carry out a programme of activities to target areas to reduce overall NRW in the parish. A detailed audit of the water supply system will be undertaken as well as a comprehensive survey of users legal and illegal. In order to proceed with the audit of the network and to obtain reliable and accurate information on users and consumption, the following activities will be undertaken during the Audit Phase: Technical Areas: Network survey to define and locate pipes (material and size) & fittings (valves, PRV, fire hydrants) to draw up the network inventory. Then all the information gathered on site will be transferred in Geographic Information System (GIS) following the NWC specifications. Investigation of all the NWC facilities (production facilities, reservoirs and pumping stations). All defects and anomalies detected and remedial works for repairs and/or upgrading have must be clearly stated for every facility. Flow & pressure measurements as well as level measurement of reservoirs at production facilities, on the trunk mains and various off-takes. Leak detection campaign on the entire network and mapping of leaks detected to further decide for pipe section replacement. 11

12 Establishment and set-up of network models complying with the network operation and measurements carried out. Network partition into District Metering Area (DMA) to monitor flows and NRW control with definition of equipment (valves and bulk meters) to be installed. Setting-up of pressure management program including evaluation of existing pressure zones and Pressure Reducing Valves (PRV) and definition of new pressure areas with location for new equipment. Commercial Areas: Door to Door Consumer survey audits to ascertain specific elements of the water supply among the residential & commercial users: to locate the NWC users (mapping under GIS), to check the status and condition of water meters installed on site, to gather other relevant information regarding the supply and to find out illegal connections. CS analysis to check the reliability and accuracy of the NWC database, to analyze trends of consumption and users and to establish the initial billable consumption. Consumption profiles measuring campaign to analyze the apparent losses engendered by the customer metering policies and thereof to optimize the invoicing /revenues of NWC by defining new metering policies for domestic and commercial users. Specific investigation on site to check the discrepancies between the CS database and the field, mainly for the temporary and permanent disconnected accounts as well as for the accounts with zero/low consumption. Cost of Audit The total cost to undertake the proposed set up and audit of the Westmoreland water supply system is $92M. A breakdown is provided in the table below. Activity 1 Network Survey (including leak detection/pressure Survey and Estimated Cost ($M) 2 Establishment of DMA 50 3 Customer Mapping and audits 10 Sub-Total 80 4 Administrative and Other Cost TOTAL 92 Expected Benefits The detailed audit of the Westmoreland Water Supply system will provide information that will be used to help in defining detailed NRW reduction intervention activities. The results of the 12

13 audit will be used to target the most critical sections of the parish water supply system that require attention and assist in scheduling of the required works. Expected Benefits (cont d) The information will be used to populate the asset database for the parish which will form a critical part of the Asset Management System (AMS) that will be established for St. Elizabeth. A fully functional AMS will be a valuable operational tool that can be used to sustain the benefits that will be derived from the various projects and activities that are set out in this document. Package A This includes the rehabilitation of the Roaring River plants, the upgrade of distribution lines in Savanna-la-mar, the installation of a 250,000 gallon tank at Williamsfield, and the extension of a 6 line through to Wakefield on the Carawina system. These projects are expected to improve supply to the central regions of the parish. The details are as follows: Jerusalem Mountain Demand Zone (W-2) System Description The Jerusalem Mountain Water Supply System is provided with water from the Jeruselem Spring which has a capacity of some 0.03 mgd Service Area Some of the communities supplied by this system include Jerusalem Mountain, Rock Spring, Meylersfield Mountain and Herring Pie. Water Requirement The current population in the DC in Westmoreland that is served by the Jerusalem Water Supply System is estimated at 5,976 persons and this is expected to increase to 7,008 persons by There is a now a supply deficit 0.3mgd and this is expected to increase to 0.5 mgd if no water supply improvement works are undertaken. Addressing the Supply Deficiencies The water supply from the Jerusalem Mountain source is grossly inadequate to meet the water needs of its service area. The distribution mains in the area are asbestos cement type and break frequently. It is planned to augment the Jerusalem Mountain water supply system with water from the Bulstrode Water Supply System in order to address the existing and projected supply shortfalls. 13

14 This will have to be done in parallel with the expansion of the production capacity of the Bulstrode Water Treatment Plan. It is planned to replace the asbestos cement pipelines within the supply area. 14

Addressing the Supply Deficiencies Efforts will be made to reduce the level of technical losses on the this Water Supply system and to rehabilitate and upgrade the water treatment capacities of the treatment plants. The proposed works will involve: Extensive rehabilitation and upgrading of the Roaring River No. 2 water treatment plant to improved treatment capacity and increase output to 6.5 mgd. Rehabiliation works will also be carried out on the Roaring River No. 1 Water Treatment Plant. Construction of some 2.2km of 500mm transmission pipeline from Peterfield to Hartford water tank to replace the aged and leaking one that forms a part of the supply system. Repairs to the existing 0.5 million gallon tank at Hartford to reduce leaks. Construction of a 0.5 million water tank at Hartford to increase storage capacity at that location to 1 million gallons Upgrade transmission pipeline to 14" between Dumbar's River and Mannings intersection. Replace and upgrade old and leaking distribution pipelines in Sava-la-mar area. This will allow for the extension of service from Roaring River to the wider Sav-la-mar area 16

17 including Little London, New Hope and Retreat. This will relieve dependence on the Bulstrode Water Supply system. General rehabilitation to appurtenances - air valves, isolating valves, etc. 17

19 Bluefields Demand Zone (W-2) System Description The Bluefield Water Supply System is supplied with some 1 mgd, through a supply network that has a high level of technical losses. Service Area Some of the communities supplied by this system include Bluefields, Belmont, Black Bay, Farm, Culloden, Whitehouse, South Sea Park, Mearnsville, Gordon. Water Requirement The current population in the DC in Westmoreland that is served by the Bluefield Water Supply System is estimated to be 16,814 persons and this is expected to increase to 19,718 persons by There is a current supply deficit of 0.36 mgd and this is will increase to 1 mgd. Activities to reduce the technical losses will improve the supply situation. Addressing the Supply Deficiencies The major trunk main that runs along the Bluefield main road through to Whitehouse/Scott's Cove is leaking badly and breaks frequently. Over the last 12 months repairs at least ten major leaks have had to be carried out on it. The National Works Agency Plans to carry out a major road upgrading work from the Scotts s Cove through to Whitehouse. It is planned to replace this main to avoid problems with leaks and breaks when the road work is completed. Replacement of the pipelines would see reduced leaks, increased carrying capacity, improved service delivery and reduced Non-Revenue Water due to leakages. In addition, it is proposed to augment the deficit by piping in additional supply from Dalintober. 19

20 Cost for Improvements The estimated total cost for the improvement works is $ 1.03b as shown below: Activity Qnty Cost ($) Install 17Km 250mm DI pipeline from Bluefields to Scotts Cove Install 6km 10" line from tank at Fustic Grove to Scott's Cove, and appurtenances Upgrade 3km of line from Relift pump to Fustic Grove tank to 8", and appurtenances 17,000 $541,565, ,000 $191,140, ,000 $66,597, Install pump relift station $25,000, Install storage tank 50,000 gallons $12,500, Install 5km 6" distribution line 5,000 $87,769, Engineering & Other Cost $108,313, TOTAL $1,032,886,

Water Requirement The current population in the DC in Westmoreland that is served by the Williamsfield Supply Systems is estimated to be 3,783 persons and this is not expected to increase to 4,436 persons by There is a current supply marginal supply surplus and this is expected to reverse to marginal deficit in 2030 if no improvement work is done. An aggressive programme to reduce the level of technical losses to 30% by 2015 will provide a surplus of some 0.3 mgd Addressing the Supply Deficiencies There is one pump at this facility making the system vulnerable to supply disruptions. A duty and a standby pump need to be in place. The sump at the station is inadequate, leading to inconsistent and unreliable supply. It is planned to carry out the following works: Construct a 250,000 gallon tank at Williamsfield (pipes are already in place); water will be pumped to this tank and then gravity fed to areas such as Grange, Strawberry, Friendship, Ft William, Heartford. Complete the installation of distribution mains from Flower Hill to Blauwearie and Barham communities. A 50,000 gallon tank and pumping station is to be installed. Replacement distribution mains will be installed to serve Strawberry adjacent areas 22

24 Carawina Demand Zone (W-2) System Description The Carawina Water Supply System is supplied by water from the Carawina Springs which has a capacity of some 0.5 mgd Service Area This system supplies Carawina and Torrigton. Water Requirement The current population in the DC in Westmoreland that is served by the Carawina Water Supply System is estimated to be 529 persons and this is expected to increase to 620 persons by There is a current supply, surplus of 0.14 mgd and this is expected to remain that way if the service area is unchanged. Activities to reduce the technical losses will improve the supply situation. The water from Carawina is therefore available to augment supply to adjacent systems such as the Roaring River and Petersville systems. Addressing the Supply Deficiencies It is planned to extend the Carawina Water Supply System to serve additional areas such as Paradise and Wakefield. 24

25 Cost for Improvements The estimated total cost for the improvement works is $ 168.5M as shown below: Activity Qnty Cost ($) Install 8 Km of 6" DI line and control devices 8,000 $140,430, Engineering & Other Cost $28,086, TOTAL $168,516, Cave Demand Zone (W-2) System Description Some 0.24 mgd of water is supplied to the Cave Water Water Supply. Service Area Some of the communities supplied by this system include Cave, Cave Mountain, Red Gate, Water Wheel, Ferris, Scott Hill Water Requirement The current population in the DC in Westmoreland that is served by the Cave Water Supply System is estimated to be 2,226 persons and this is expected to increase to 2,611 persons by There is a current marginal supply deficit of about 0.06 mgd and this is to increase to 0.12 if supply conditions in area are not changed. Addressing the Supply Deficiencies The level of service within the supply area varies, with some sections experiencing intermittent supply. The protection about the area of the source is to be strengthened to ensure its continued use. Pressure zones within the supply system are to be re-established to minimize high pressures which can lead to frequent main breaks. 25

26 The pipeline from the pump station to the tank is to be replaced and the replacement pipeline dedicated to supply this tank. The water from the tank will then be distributed to the service areas. This provides improved supply control and will facilitate the use of off peaking pumping to minimize electricity cost. Cost for Improvements The estimated total cost for the improvement works is $ 135.8M as shown below. Cost for improvements The estimated total cost for the improvement works is $ 153M as shown below: Activity Qnty Cost ($) Install 5.5 Km 6" transmission line from pump station to reservoir (along roadway) 5,500 $96,545, Rehabilitate 2"/3" distribution pipeline and install 3 $5,000, PRV's Upgrade 1.5 Km distribution line to 4" DI including PRV 1,500 $25,492, Provision for replacement of distribution mains in supply 2,000 $19,490, area Construct security fencing around supply source $1,500, Engineering & Other Cost $5,398, TOTAL $153,426,
