Management
Structure
Levels of Service
A. Financial
Wastewater charges and fees are affordable, predictable and justifiable and remain below the average of our national
peers.
Our AAA Bond rating is retained.
Our five-year budget plan optimizes total expenditures to meet our customer service goals and lay the foundation for
long-term financial stability.
B. Public Health and Environmental Protection
Comply consistently with all regulatory permits.
Convey wastewater without backups or spills, except during situations beyond our control, such as extreme wet weather.
Establish and track a plan to achieve best water quality for lowest total cost (to the region) for waters receiving
wastewater effluent
C. Customer Service
Achieve sufficiently accurate wastewater flow measurement, or estimation, to ensure fair and equitable allocation of
municipal wastewater charges and to establish inflow/infiltration mitigation goals.
Be a good neighbor with respect to odors, traffic, noise, and visual aesthetics.
Provide wastewater conveyance and treatment capacity consistent with the regional wastewater system plan and
approved local comprehensive sewer plans.
Communicate with customer communities to explain wastewater financial information, planned capital projects,
and programs affecting their community, and to coordinate public infrastructure asset preservation work.
D. Leadership
Be safe
Minimize the impact on our environment
Reclaim resources from wastewater
Asset Management Policy
Asset – any physical item that has value to
MCES
Asset Management - … translates
organizational objectives into asset-related
decisions, plans and activities using a risk-
based approach
Risk – social, technical, regulatory and
environmental factors that could impact our
mission, vision or goals.
Principles 1. Defined customer service levels help us meet expectations and control costs.
2. Staff capabilities, tools and knowledge must be fostered for sound asset decisions,
informed asset plans and disciplined operation and maintenance.
3. Infrastructure investments look at all options to balance cost, risk and performance
requirements for maximum value over the whole asset life.
4. Lifecycle activities in asset plans are agreed to by operations, maintenance and
engineering before design and construction.
5. Cross functional teams develop risk-based asset plans for all facilities.
6. Individuals and teams use and improve asset plans to operate to agreed-upon design
performance, and maintain for optimal reliability and life, all at lowest possible cost.
7. New or renewed facilities are delivered ready to operate reliably and maintain
effectively.
8. Lessons learned and best practices are incorporated into design, operating and
maintenance strategy development processes for continuous improvement.
Optimization Framework
Criticality
What should an asset do?
How important is that?
A living criticality process to institutionalize
– Measure improvements over time (manage risk down)
– Legitimize daily use
Link to condition
Gives us RISK
Framework for the
Asset Management
Plan
Level-of-Service goals
established through the
collaboration of maintenance,
operations and engineering
Next steps…
1. Finalize the framework
2. Pilot criticality assessment
3. Continue pipe rehabilitation program
4. Asset plans – first 50% complete
5. Planning and Scheduling
