Water Master Plan
June 2022
8.5.6.5 Outage Scenario 5 – Zone 1/2 PRVs Offline
Outage Scenario 5 assumes a PRV normally allowing flow between Zones 1 and 2 is offline. These “Zone 1/2" PRVs include Main, North Milpitas, and Sunnyhills in the SFPUC service area and Capitol, Curtis East, Curtis West, and Parc Metro in the VW service area. System performance is evaluated with one PRV closed at a time. It is assumed EPRVs are available as needed.
Under MDD conditions, customer service pressures are not significantly impacted by any single Zone 1/2 PRV outage. Should any of these PRVs fail, the remaining PRVs allow the distribution system to operate such that customer service pressures are at least 40 psi.
In contrast, fire flow availability can be significantly reduced depending on the PRV outage. For Main, North Milpitas, and Curtis (East and West), operational status did not significantly impact fire flow availability. However, when Sunnyhills, Capitol, or Parc Metro were offline, fire flow availability decreased.
The fire flow impacts of these outages are shown on Figure 8-17 and discussed below, followed by a review of the recommended improvements.
8.5.6.5.1 Sunnyhills PRV Outage
Should the Sunnyhills PRV go offline, eight additional locations do not meet recommended fire flows.
These locations are all in Zone SF1. West Yost recommends the following improvements to address these new below criterion locations:
• Near the intersection of Coelho Street and Diel Drive, replace the (normally closed) isolation valve separating Zones SF1 and SF2 with an EPRV to allow flows from SF2 during a fire event in the northern area of Zone SF1 (ECIP-V-03).
• Along Callan Street near the intersection of Callan Street and Arizona Avenue, replace approximately 140 LF of 6-inch diameter pipeline with 8-inch diameter pipeline (ECIP-PI-28). • Along Gross Street, near the intersection of Gross Street and Conway Street, replace approximately 170 LF of 6-inch diameter pipeline with 8-inch diameter pipeline (ECIP-PI-31).
8.5.6.5.2 Capitol PRV Outage
Should the Capitol PRV go offline, 11 additional locations do not meet recommended fire flows. However, during a fire at any of these 11 locations (all in Zone VW1), the Live Oak and McCarthy EPRVs will allow sufficient flow from Zone SF1 to meet recommended fire flows. Thus, a Capitol PRV outage can be adequately handled by existing facilities, and no improvements are necessary.
8.5.6.5.3 Parc Metro PRV Outage
Should the Parc Metro PRV go offline, five additional locations do not meet recommended fire flows. At one of these locations, EPRV operation improves fire flows to meet the recommended criterion. West Yost recommends the following improvements to address the remaining below criterion locations:
• Along Curtis Avenue, connect the existing 10-inch diameter pipeline on the northern side of the street to the existing 18-inch diameter pipeline on the southern side of the street. This new connection should be a 12-inch diameter pipeline (approximately 30 LF) and installed downstream of the Curtis PRVs (i.e., in Zone VW1) (ECIP-PN-01). 539

• Along Hammond Way, east of Tom Evatt Park, connect the existing 8-inch diameter pipelines in Zone VW1. These pipelines are currently dead ends, created by normally closed isolation valves separating the SFPUC and VW service areas. This new connection should be an 8-inch diameter pipeline and is estimated to be approximately 60 LF (ECIP PN-02).
8.5.6.5.4 PRV Outage Priority
Table 8-6 summarizes distribution system performance for each PRV outage. As shown in Table 8-6, each PRV is assigned a priority based on the impact of its outage. Parc Metro and Sunnyhills are the highest priority PRVs, while Main, North Milpitas, and Curtis East/West are the lowest priority PRVs.

8.6 SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS
Below is a summary of findings and recommendations from the evaluations detailed in this chapter. Key recommendations for the existing system were used to develop a CIP, which is the focus of Chapter 11. • Supply Capacity
— Existing firm supplies exceed maximum day demand. While the VW service area has a firm supply deficit, it can be met by the surplus in the SFPUC service area. No additional supply facilities are recommended based on existing demands and normal operating conditions.
• Storage Capacity
— There is sufficient storage in the SFPUC service area and a deficit of 0.45 MG in the VW service area. This deficit is not considered critical, as the Zone SF1 storage surplus can cover the shortfall in Zones VW1 and VW2. No additional storage is recommended based on existing demands and normal operating conditions. • Pumping Capacity
— Each pressure zone has a pumping capacity surplus. No additional pumping facilities are recommended based on existing demands and normal operating conditions. • Distribution System
— The existing distribution system meets all minimum pressure criteria under ADD, PHD, and MDD conditions.
— West Yost identified potential improvements to address the locations not meeting recommended fire flows in the existing system. These mainly consist of upsizing existing 6-inch and 8-inch diameter pipelines, though some PRV and isolation valve improvements are also recommended. It is assumed these improvements will be implemented for the future water system evaluation in Chapter 9. — To comply with the City’s design guidelines and improve fire flow capacity, the City should consider upsizing any 4-inch diameter pipelines that serve hydrants to 8-inch diameter pipelines.
— Should SFPUC turnouts go offline, most of Zone SF2 has reduced fire flow capacity. As a result, West Yost recommends installing a pump at the Ayer pump station with a capacity of 4,000 gpm.
— The existing system is well equipped to handle a power outage or a VW supply outage.
No additional significant impacts arise in either emergency scenario. — To evaluate system performance during a PRV outage, PRVs normally allowing flow from Zone 2 to Zone 1 were simulated to be disabled one at a time. The Sunnyhills and Parc Metro PRVs are the most critical, as outages at either of these PRVs results in new locations not meeting recommended fire flows. Recommended improvements include a new EPRV, new pipelines, and pipeline upsizing.

CHAPTER 9
Evaluation of Future Water System
This chapter evaluates the City’s future (i.e., buildout) water system and its ability to meet recommended planning and performance criteria described in Chapter 7 and summarized in Table 7-1 of this report. It is assumed complete buildout will occur in the year 2040. The evaluation encompasses both system capacity and hydraulic performance using buildout water demands developed in Section 5.1 of this report. System capacity is evaluated based on potable water supply, storage, and pumping, while the hydraulic performance evaluation examines buildout distribution facilities under various demand and outage conditions. The following evaluations frequently refer to “normal” conditions, which are defined as non-emergencies (i.e., no fires or unplanned outages).
This chapter also includes recommendations for addressing any deficiencies identified from the evaluation. These are incorporated in a recommended CIP described in Chapter 11 of this report. To simplify cross-referencing with Chapter 11, each proposed project is assigned a unique CIP ID.
The following sections present the evaluation methodology and results:
• Buildout Potable Water Demands
• Potable Water Facilities for Buildout Analysis
• Buildout Potable Water Supply Capacity Evaluation
• Buildout Potable Water Storage Capacity Evaluation
• Buildout Pumping Capacity Evaluation
• Buildout Water Distribution System Evaluation
• Summary of Findings and Recommended Improvements
9.1 BUILDOUT POTABLE WATER DEMANDS
Buildout potable water demands are summarized in Table 9-1 and represent a combination of existing demands (presented in Table 8-1) and new demands from planned future growth and development in Opportunity Areas and the Gateway Specific Plan/Milpitas Metro Specific Plan areas. While existing demands were adjusted for NRW based on actual production data, future demands were assumed to have an NRW of 11 percent (as discussed in Section 5.1.3). Maximum day and peak hour peaking factors remain as listed in Table 5-7.
New water demand is concentrated in the VW service area, as most of the planned, future growth and development (including Gateway Specific Plan and Milpitas Metro Specific Plan) is anticipated in Zones VW1 and VW2. Existing demands in the SF service area are estimated to increase approximately 18 percent at buildout, while demands in the VW service area are expected to increase by almost 150 percent over the same period. Citywide, the buildout average day demand is estimated at approximately
13.9 mgd, a 67 percent increase from the existing (2019) average day demand of 8.3 mgd. 543

9.2 POTABLE WATER FACILITIES FOR BUILDOUT ANALYSIS
At buildout, the City expects three groundwater wells to be available for emergency use only (i.e., at the time of this report, the wells are not planned or intended to operate normally): Pinewood Well, Curtis Well, and McCandless Well. Table 9-2 summarizes the location and capacity for each of these wells. The capacity for Pinewood Well is from the 2009 WMPU (Table 4-3), while the capacity for McCandless Well (currently under construction) is based on discussions with the design team and production testing, which was performed at the end of 2020. It was conservatively assumed that Curtis Well would have the same capacity as McCandless Well, however the Curtis Well capacity is subject to change. While Curtis Well is located within Zone SF1, it is adjacent to transmission mains for Zones SF1, SF2, and VW2. Given the projected large increase in demands in the VW service area (approximately 3,250 gpm in additional average day demand), it is assumed that Curtis Well would serve Zone VW2.
While the City does not currently anticipate any other major water system changes, the following buildout analyses assume that the existing system infrastructure recommendations detailed in Sections 8.5.5 and
8.5.6 of this report have been implemented. This includes pipeline improvements, two new EPRVs (Diel and Hammond), and the additional 4,000 gpm pump at Ayer. West Yost recommends that the City complete these existing system CIP projects to optimize system performance and operations as the City approaches buildout. Figure 9-1 shows the existing potable water system with these improvements, Curtis Well, and McCandless Well. On Figure 9-1, the new facilities are highlighted in red. 544

(e) While Curtis Well is located within Zone SF1, it is adjacent to transmission mains for Zones SF1, SF2, and VW2. Given the projected large increase in demands in the VW service area, it is assumed Curtis Well would serve Zone VW2.
9.3 BUILDOUT POTABLE WATER SUPPLY CAPACITY EVALUATION
As described in Section 7.2.2 of this report, the recommended water system performance criteria specify that under normal demand conditions, the following must be satisfied:
• Provide firm supply capacity equal to maximum day demand • Meet peak hour demand from a combination of supply capacity and storage Firm supply capacity is defined as the normal water supply with the largest turnout out of service, therefore, groundwater wells (which provide emergency supply) are excluded. In the SFPUC service area, the largest turnout is Calaveras, which has a capacity of 13.0 mgd. The VW service area has only the Gibraltar turnout, therefore, firm supply capacity is zero.
Table 9-3 summarizes the firm supply capacity evaluation for each service area at buildout. The SFPUC service area has a firm supply capacity surplus of approximately 13.9 mgd, while the VW service area has a firm supply capacity deficit of approximately 14.9 mgd. Since water can be moved from the City’s SFPUC service area to the VW service area, the surplus in the SFPUC service area can offset most of the deficit in the VW service area. The resulting net deficit is approximately 1.0 mgd.
To address the firm supply capacity deficit and provide supply redundancy in the VW service area at buildout, West Yost recommends constructing a second VW turnout with a capacity of 10,000 gpm (or
14.4 mgd, equal to the Gibraltar turnout) (CIP ID BCIP-TO-01). This would increase the VW service area firm supply capacity to 14.4 mgd and change the City-wide firm supply deficit to a surplus of approximately
13.4 mgd. Without this new turnout, the City would fail to meet the firm supply capacity criterion described in Section 7.2.2 of this report.
Ideally, the second VW turnout would be adjacent to both VW’s Milpitas Pipeline and existing City transmission mains. Locating the turnout is outside the scope of this report, though the City has identified one potential site: within a public service utility easement near the intersection of Piper Drive and Garden Street. The distribution system evaluation described in Section 9.6 below assumes this new “Piper” turnout is active, but other locations for a second VW turnout are possible. 546

Water Master Plan
June 2022
By incrementally increasing existing demands, a firm supply capacity “trigger demand” can be identified.
This is the demand at which existing supply facilities become insufficient, and any additional demand would require new supplies (i.e., turnouts or groundwater wells). Due to different peaking factors in each service area, the firm supply capacity trigger demand varies slightly depending on the location and timing of growth. Assuming the SFPUC service area would be fully built out prior to the VW service area, the firm supply capacity trigger demand is approximately 13.4 mgd. In the opposite scenario (i.e., VW service area built out before the SFPUC service area), the trigger demand decreases slightly to 13.3 mgd. Based on the linear demand growth projection summarized in Table 5-10 of this report, City demands will approach these levels around the year 2038. This trigger timing is similar for the Maddaus demand projections (Partial Rebound – Normal Economy, Weather Normalized) discussed in Section 5.3.4.2 of this report.
For the second criterion listed above, Table 9-4 compares total supply plus storage to peak hour demands.
Total supply equals the combined capacity from all turnouts, while storage consists of the firm pumping capacity from storage reservoirs. This includes the Ayer, Gibraltar (SF), and Gibraltar (VW) pump stations.
To be conservative, firm pumping capacity is assumed (i.e., the largest pump is out of service at each pump station). Also, it is assumed the 4,000 gpm pump recommended in Section 8.5.6.1 of this report has been installed at Ayer.
As shown in Table 9-4, the SFPUC service area has a peak hour supply surplus of approximately 24,000 gpm and can even meet peak hour demands with supplies alone. In the VW service area, peak hour supplies exceed demands by approximately 5,000 gpm. Achieving this surplus in the VW service area requires utilizing the Gibraltar turnout and both sets of pumps at the Gibraltar (VW) pump station. In Table 9-3.

other words, the City would need to operate valves within the Gibraltar (VW) pump station so the pumps that normally boost Gibraltar turnout pressures would instead draw from the Gibraltar (VW) reservoir.

(c) Equals the sum of total supply capacity and firm pumping capacity from storage. (d) Refer to Table 9-1.
9.4 BUILDOUT POTABLE WATER STORAGE CAPACITY EVALUATION
As described in Section 7.3.2 of this report, the required storage reservoir capacity in each pressure zone is the sum of the following components:
• Operational storage equal to 25 percent of maximum day demand • Emergency storage equal to 50 percent of maximum day demand • Fire storage equal to the largest fire flow demand in a pressure zone multiplied by the recommended duration
The total storage required is the sum of the operational, emergency, and fire storage requirements, less any groundwater credit, which can offset some of the emergency storage requirement.
The groundwater storage credit is calculated for each pressure zone and equals the volume of water pumped over a 24-hour period. The credit cannot exceed the recommended emergency storage volume (i.e., 50 percent of maximum day demand). To offset surface storage needs, groundwater must be of potable water quality, and wells must have backup power capabilities. In addition, the City must be able to meet average day demands without relying on groundwater (which it can).
For each pressure zone, Table 9-5 compares the City’s buildout potable water storage capacity with storage requirements. Since Zones 1 and 2 are interconnected through multiple PRVs that operate under normal conditions (see Figure 3-1), they are combined in each service area (i.e., SF1/SF2 and VW1/VW2). As shown in Table 9-5, all three wells qualify for the emergency groundwater storage credit and contribute a storage capacity equivalent to their 24-hour pumping capacities. As a result, there is a 4.11 MG storage surplus in Zones SF1/SF2 and a deficit of 5.97 MG in Zones VW1/VW2. Since stored SFPUC water at Gibraltar can be delivered to VW customers, the surplus in Zones SF1/SF2 can reduce the VW service area shortfall, up to a maximum of 5 MG (the capacity of the Gibraltar (SF) storage reservoir). However, even after accounting for this offset (4.11 MG), there remains a net storage deficit in the VW service area of approximately 1.86 MG. 548

Water Master Plan

As a result, West Yost recommends the City construct a new, 2 MG storage reservoir in the VW service area (CIP ID BCIP-S-01). While additional groundwater wells would also reduce the storage capacity deficit, lower than expected productivity at the McCandless Well suggests new storage reservoir(s) may be a more reliable investment. The City is currently evaluating potential locations for this new storage reservoir.
To deliver water stored in this new reservoir to the distribution system, West Yost recommends constructing a new pump station (CIP ID BCIP-PS-01) with a firm capacity of 4,000 gpm (approximately
5.8 mgd). This ensures that pumps can meet the largest (i.e., industrial) fire flows in the service area. Also, at this capacity pumps can empty the reservoir in approximately eight hours.
By incrementally increasing existing demands, a storage capacity “trigger demand” can be identified. This is the demand at which existing storage facilities (Gibraltar and Ayer Reservoirs plus Pinewood Well) become insufficient, and any additional demand would require new storage (i.e., reservoirs or groundwater wells). Due to different peaking factors in each service area, the storage capacity trigger demand varies slightly depending on the location and timing of growth. Assuming the SFPUC service area would be fully built out prior to the VW service area, the storage capacity trigger demand is approximately
11.8 mgd. In the opposite scenario (i.e., VW service area built out before the SFPUC service area), the trigger demand decreases slightly to 11.7 mgd. Based on the linear demand growth projection summarized in Table 5-10 of this report, City demands will approach these levels around the year 2032.
This trigger timing is significantly sooner based on the Maddaus demand projections (Partial Rebound – Normal Economy, Weather Normalized) discussed in Section 5.3.4.2 of this report. Because Maddaus projects more demand to be added by 2025 (and more gradual growth from 2025 through 2045), City demands will reach storage trigger levels by around 2024, about eight years sooner than the linear growth projection.
Note, storage and timing requirements may change as actual potable water demands adjust to conservation efforts, efficiency standards, and expanded recycled water use. In addition, if Curtis Well production exceeds expectations, the increased groundwater storage credit would also reduce the overall storage capacity deficit. The City should monitor demands and groundwater well feasibility as it continues to grow and approaches buildout.
9.5 BUILDOUT PUMPING CAPACITY EVALUATION
As described in Section 7.3.3 of this report, the City should have firm pumping capacity equal to MDD. For a given pump station, firm capacity is defined as the total capacity of all operational pumps minus the capacity of the largest pumping unit. In addition, pumping capacity in lower pressure zones should also be able to deliver the maximum day demand of any zones above them. For example, the Zone SF3 pumps should be able to deliver the maximum day demand for Zones SF3 and SF4 (i.e., SF4-1 and SF4-2).
For each pressure zone, Table 9-6 compares the available and required pumping capacities at buildout. In Zones SF1 and SF2, firm pumping capacity consists of one 5,500 gpm pump at Gibraltar (SF) and three 1,800 gpm pumps at Ayer. It is assumed the 4,000-gpm pump recommended in Section 8.5.6.1 of this report has been installed at Ayer, so firm capacity assumes that pump is offline. As a result, the combined firm pumping capacity in Zones SF1 and SF2 is 10,900 gpm, which exceeds the required firm pumping capacity (i.e., the buildout MDD of the entire SFPUC service area). The pumping capacity surplus in Zones SF1 and SF2 is approximately 4,040 gpm.

No changes are anticipated at either the Country Club or Tularcitos pump stations, therefore, firm pumping capacities in Zones SF3 and SF4 remain at 250 gpm each. This comfortably exceeds buildout pumping requirements. Firm pumping capacity surpluses in Zones SF3 and SF4 are 91 and 135 gpm, respectively.
Both sets of pumps at the Gibraltar (VW) PS are included in the pumping capacity evaluation for the VW service area. One set draws from the Gibraltar (VW) storage reservoir, while the other set boosts pressures from the Gibraltar turnout (if necessary). By adjusting valve operations, the “turnout” pumps can also draw from the Gibraltar (VW) storage reservoir. The combined firm capacity for both sets of pumps is 13,500 gpm, which exceeds the VW service area buildout MDD (10,334 gpm) by approximately 3,170 gpm.
9.6 BUILDOUT WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM EVALUATION
West Yost used the updated hydraulic model to conduct steady-state hydraulic analyses of the buildout water distribution system. The goal of this evaluation was to identify necessary improvements to support the City’s buildout water demands while meeting the recommended system performance criteria presented in Sections 7.2.1 and 7.2.3 of this report.
This evaluation assumes infrastructure recommendations detailed in Sections 8.5.5 and 8.5.6 of this report have been implemented and that the new VW Piper turnout introduced in Section 9.3 is active.
The new VW Piper turnout is assumed to be a 20-inch diameter connection and include a PRV that will evenly distribute VW flows between the Piper and Gibraltar turnouts.
In evaluating the buildout system, pressure criteria are prioritized over velocity criteria. This prioritization is typical, because older water systems tend to have many undersized pipes, and strictly adhering to velocity standards would identify those pipes as candidates for replacement, even though pressures meet recommended criteria. West Yost does not recommend replacing existing pipes solely for failing to meet velocity criteria. While velocity results will be summarized for non-emergency scenarios, the following analyses focus on pressures and fire flow availability.
The following evaluations are intended to identify distribution facility sizing and capacity requirements at buildout. As a result, they examine system performance under high demand scenarios only (i.e., Peak Hour Demand and Maximum Day Demand plus Fire Flow).
• Peak Hour Demand Scenario: evaluates the potential for low customer service pressures in the system during a peak hour demand condition
• Maximum Day Demand plus Fire Flow Scenario: evaluates fire flow availability in the system under a maximum day demand condition
• Emergency Operations (each scenario is evaluated under maximum day demand plus fire flow):
— Outage Scenario 1: SFPUC turnouts are offline
— Outage Scenario 2: VW turnouts are offline
— Outage Scenario 3: SFPUC and VW turnouts are offline
— Outage Scenario 4: Power outage; all facilities without backup generators are offline — Outage Scenario 5: PRVs normally allowing flow between Zones 1 and 2 are offline 552

To capture the entire range of normal water system operations, each non-emergency scenario above was evaluated using the two operational alternatives summarized in Table 8-5 of this report. In the Base alternative, all pumps are off, whereas Alternative 1 allows pump operation as needed. For both alternatives, all turnouts are open, and gravity tank levels are at their minimum of normal operating range.
9.6.1 Peak Hour Demand Analysis
The hydraulic model was used to conduct a steady-state hydraulic analysis of the system during a buildout PHD condition. As shown in Table 9-1, the PHD for the buildout water service area is approximately 30,776 gpm (44.3 mgd). Under PHD conditions, the recommended minimum pressure is 30 psi. Any services experiencing pressures less than 30 psi during a PHD condition would require an individual booster pump.
Results from the PHD simulations for Base and Alternative 1 operations are shown in Figure 9-2 and Figure 9-3, respectively. In each figure, color-coded circles represent distribution system pressures during a PHD condition. Pressures are slightly higher for Alternative 1 (pumps on), but there are no significant differences in system performance based on operations. In both cases, there are no customer service locations with pressures below 30 psi.
Per Table 7-1 of this report, under normal conditions the maximum recommended velocities for transmission and distribution mains is 6 and 8 ft/s, respectively. Transmission mains are pipelines 16 inches or larger in diameter, while distribution mains are pipelines smaller than 16 inches in diameter.
Under PHD conditions, pipeline velocities exceed recommended limits near supply sources (i.e., turnouts and pump stations) and PRVs.
In the SFPUC service area, high velocity pipelines include those adjacent to the Sunnyhills PRV (over 24 ft/s in both Base and Alternative 1 operations) and downstream of the Sunnyhills, Main, and Calaveras turnouts (between approximately 9 and 11 ft/s under Base operations). When pumps are on (Alternative 1), turnout flows are lower. As a result, during Alternative 1 operations, pipeline velocities near the Sunnyhills, Main, and Calaveras turnouts are below the recommended limit.
In the VW service area, high velocity pipelines are located at and adjacent to the Gibraltar facility and PRVs. This includes the transmission main along Curtis Avenue and Yosemite Drive (between South Abel Street and South Milpitas Boulevard). Transmission mains in this area and downstream of the Gibraltar facility have velocities between 7 and 17 ft/s during Base operations (pumps off) and between 7 and 12 ft/s during Alternative 1 operations (pumps on). Pipeline velocities near PRVs are the same for Base and Alternative 1 operations. The pipelines adjacent to the Curtis East and Parc Metro PRVs have velocities of 7.1 and 8.4 ft/s, respectively, during a PHD condition. Velocities in the pipelines near the Capitol PRV are approximately 10.7 ft/s.

9.6.2 Maximum Day Demand Plus Concurrent Fire Flow Analysis Fire flows in the model were updated based on buildout land uses in growth areas and the Gateway Specific Plan and Milpitas Metro Specific Plan areas. Outside of these areas, fire flows remain as originally assigned in Section 8.5.5 of this report. Fire flows were then simulated during a buildout MDD condition using the hydraulic model. The hydraulic model conducts fire flow analyses by simulating a fire flow demand at one hydrant location and verifying whether the system can serve all other normal customer demands while maintaining desired residual pressures. This is repeated for all hydrant locations within the distribution system. Hydrant locations meet recommended fire flows if they can deliver the recommended fire flow while maintaining a 20-psi residual system pressure. Note, this fire flow analysis reflects distribution system capacity, as individual hydrants, and their associated losses are not modeled.
Fire flow analyses were performed independently for each pressure zone, with Zones 1 and 2 combined for each service area (i.e., VW1/VW2 and SF1/SF2). It was assumed that only one fire event would occur at a time, which is standard industry practice. Results from MDD plus concurrent fire flow simulations for Base and Alternative 1 operations are shown on Figure 9-4 and Figure 9-5, respectively. Hydrant locations are represented by circles and color coded by fire flow availability, while parcels are shaded according to the recommended fire flow. For example, a green circle adjacent to a purple parcel means that the distribution system can meet a 4,000 gpm fire flow at that location while maintaining 20 psi in the rest of the system.
System performance is similar for the two operational alternatives. With pumps off (Base alternative), 19 locations do not meet recommended fire flows, while 15 locations are below the fire flow criterion under Alternative 1. All “below criterion” locations in Alternative 1 are also flagged in the Base alternative, therefore, pump operation improves fire flow availability for four locations. Since pumps could be off during a fire event, recommended improvements address all 19 below criterion locations identified in the Base alternative.
As discussed in Section 8.5.5 of this report, some below criterion fire flows can be eliminated by delivering the recommended flow through multiple hydrants. It was assumed that any location with another hydrant within the City’s hydrant spacing guidelines (500 feet for single family areas and 300 feet for all other areas) would qualify for delivering fire flows through multiple hydrants. If the qualifying hydrants could combine to deliver the recommended fire flow while maintaining a 20 psi residual system pressure, then the location was no longer considered below criterion. Of the 19 below criterion locations identified in the Base alternative, 16 met recommended fire flows after looking at multiple hydrants.
The three remaining below criterion locations are all at the southern end of Zone VW1, near South Main Street. To address these locations, West Yost recommends installing a new EPRV between Zones SF1 and VW1 near the intersection of Cedar Way and South Main Street (CIP ID BCIP-V-01). This emergency 8-inch connection would replace a normally closed isolation valve and allow flow from Zone SF1 if pressures in Zone VW1 fall 5 psi below PHD pressures. In addition to improving fire flows under normal operations, this “Cedar” EPRV also provides redundancy for a Capitol PRV outage (detailed below in Section 9.6.3.5).
The proposed Cedar EPRV location is based on the MDD plus concurrent fire flow hydraulic analysis described in this section and the existing connection between Zones SF1 and VW1 at the intersection of Cedar Way and South Main Street. Additional study is required to determine whether this location is feasible or if other locations would also solve the below criterion locations in this area. 556

9.6.3 Emergency Outage Scenarios
The following emergency outage evaluations identify how well the distribution system functions without one or more key facilities. For reference, the outage scenarios consist of:
• SFPUC turnouts are offline
• VW turnouts are offline
• SFPUC and VW turnouts are offline
• Power outage; all facilities without backup generators are offline • PRVs normally allowing flow between Zones 1 and 2 are offline Emergency outage scenarios are not intended to evaluate the adequacy of emergency water supplies, which is outside the scope of this master plan. Instead, these evaluations examine system pressures and fire flow availability during an MDD condition. To be conservative, storage reservoir levels are assumed to be at the minimum of normal operating range (see Table 3-4).
Since emergency scenarios assume certain facilities are offline, the corresponding evaluations do not examine system performance under Base and Alternative 1 operations. Besides the assumed outage, there are no additional operational restrictions. All facilities not assumed offline as part of the scenario are assumed to be operational.
Results for each emergency outage scenario are summarized below. Where presented, figures showing system performance during emergency outages are similar to non-emergency figures discussed above.
Distribution system locations are color coded by fire flow availability (for fire flow evaluations).
9.6.3.1 Outage Scenario 1 – SFPUC Offline
This outage scenario assumes supply from SFPUC is unavailable, therefore, the Sunnyhills, Calaveras, Main Street, and Intertie turnouts are offline. As a result, the City’s normally available potable water supply consists of VW (i.e., the Gibraltar and Piper turnouts) and storage.
After implementing the distribution system improvements summarized in Section 8.6 of this report, fire flow availability is not significantly impacted with SFPUC turnouts offline. There are no new below criterion locations in this outage scenario. In other words, the pumps at Gibraltar and Ayer alone can adequately serve fire flows in the SFPUC service area during an MDD condition. Thus, West Yost does not recommend any improvements based on Outage Scenario 1.
9.6.3.2 Outage Scenario 2 – VW Offline
This outage scenario assumes supply from VW is unavailable, therefore, the Gibraltar and Piper turnouts are offline. As a result, the City’s normally available potable water supply consists of SFPUC turnouts and storage.
Fire flow availability is not significantly impacted with VW turnouts offline. There are no additional below criterion locations in this outage scenario, though adequately serving fire flows during an MDD condition required adjusting pump operation. In addition to the two pumps that normally draw from the Gibraltar (VW) storage reservoir, one 5,000-gpm pump that normally boosts turnout pressures was also drawing from the same reservoir. Since this operational flexibility already exists at the Gibraltar facility, West Yost does not recommend any improvements based on Outage Scenario 2. 559

9.6.3.3 Outage Scenario 3 – SFPUC and VW Offline
This outage scenario assumes supplies from both SFPUC and VW are unavailable, therefore, all turnouts are offline. As a result, the City’s normally available potable water supply consists of storage only (i.e., Gibraltar (SF), Gibraltar (VW), Ayer, Tularcitos, and Minnis reservoirs).
Since neither the SFPUC nor the VW outages significantly impacted fire flow availability, the same is true for the simultaneous outage of both supplies. During an MDD condition, the Gibraltar (SF) and Ayer pumps can adequately serve fire flows in Zones SF1/SF2. In the VW service area, the same three pumps as Outage Scenario 2 are necessary to serve fire flows: two pumps that normally draw from the Gibraltar (VW) storage reservoir and one 5,000-gpm pump that normally boosts turnout pressures. There are no new below criterion locations in Outage Scenario 3. Thus, West Yost does not recommend any improvements based on Outage Scenario 3.
9.6.3.4 Outage Scenario 4 – Power Outage
This outage scenario assumes electrical power is unavailable, therefore, any facilities without backup generators are offline. While this does not impact the City’s normally available potable water supply, distribution system operations are hindered. Because the Country Club and Tularcitos pump stations only have plug-in adaptors and transfer switches to allow for use of portable generators, and do not have on-site emergency generators, they are assumed to be unavailable in a power outage. However, the Tularcitos and Minnis storage reservoirs can still serve Zones SF3 and SF4, respectively, during a power outage.
A power outage does not significantly impact fire flow availability. There are no new below criterion locations associated with this outage scenario, which makes sense, as the impact of a power outage is similar to Base operations (pumps off). As a result, no improvements are necessary from Outage Scenario 4.
9.6.3.5 Outage Scenario 5 – Zone 1/2 PRVs Offline
Outage Scenario 5 assumes a PRV normally allowing flow between Zones 1 and 2 is offline. These “Zone 1/2" PRVs include Main, North Milpitas, and Sunnyhills in the SFPUC service area and Capitol, Curtis East, Curtis West, and Parc Metro in the VW service area. System performance is evaluated with one PRV closed at a time. It is assumed EPRVs are available as needed.
Impacts to fire flow availability vary depending on which PRV is offline. At buildout, the Capitol PRV is most critical. Should the Capitol PRV go offline, 17 additional locations do not meet recommended fire flows. Activating EPRVs and the McCandless Well allows 14 locations to meet recommended fire flows.
The remaining three are solved via the proposed Cedar EPRV. While Sunnyhills, Curtis East, and Parc Metro PRV outages also create new below criterion locations, all can be solved by EPRVs (Diel, McCarthy, and Hammond). Outages of the Main, North Milpitas, and Curtis West PRVs did not result in any new below criterion locations.

9.7 SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS
Below is a summary of findings and recommendations from the evaluations detailed in this chapter. Key recommendations for the buildout system were used to develop a CIP, which is the focus of Chapter 11 of this report.
• Supply Capacity
— Buildout firm supplies fall short of maximum day demands. The firm supply surplus in the SFPUC service area cannot make up for the deficit in the VW service area. Thus, West Yost recommends constructing a new VW turnout near the intersection of Piper Drive and Garden Street with the same capacity as the Gibraltar turnout. • Storage Capacity
— Buildout storage capacity is insufficient. The storage capacity surplus in the SFPUC service area cannot make up for the deficit in the VW service area. West Yost recommends constructing a new, 2 MG storage reservoir in the VW service area. — To deliver water from this new storage reservoir, West Yost recommends constructing a new pump station with a firm capacity of 4,000 gpm.
• Pumping Capacity
— Each pressure zone has a pumping capacity surplus. No additional pumping facilities are recommended based on buildout demands.
• Distribution System
— The buildout distribution system meets the minimum pressure criterion under a PHD condition.
— To address locations not meeting recommended fire flows in Base operation and PRV outage scenarios, West Yost recommends installing a new EPRV near the intersection of Cedar Way and South Main Street. The Cedar EPRV would allow flows from Zone SF1 to Zone VW1 should pressures in Zone VW1 drop significantly. 561

CHAPTER 10
Asset Renewal and Replacement
This chapter presents a summary of the Water Utility Condition Assessment Technical Memorandum prepared in conjunction with this Water Master Plan, provides a discussion of risk management guidelines and asset profiling, and recommends projects and activities to manage infrastructure risk. Recommended projects are incorporated in a recommended CIP described in Chapter 11 of this report.
A summary of the Seismic Risk Assessment of the City’s water system facilities, conducted in parallel to this Water Master Plan as part of the compliance with the America’s Water Infrastructure Act of 2018, is also provided in this chapter.
10.1 SUMMARY OF WATER UTILITY CONDITION ASSESSMENT FINDINGS The Water Utility Condition Assessment Technical Memorandum, included in Appendix D, summarizesthe condition assessment that was performed for the City’s water utility assets under Task 3 – Water Utility Asset Condition Assessment of this Water Master Plan. That technical memorandum presents assessment methodologies, asset valuations, likelihood and consequence of failure factors, and business risk scores for assets in the City’s water distribution system.
The analysis focused on asset and facility risk. Risk is a combination of an asset’s likelihood to fail and an asset’s consequence if it should fail as shown below.
• Likelihood of Failure (LOF), which estimates the probability that a failure will occur in an asset by meeting the end of its physical, design, service, or economic useful life • Consequence of Failure (COF), which estimates the impacts of asset failure expressed either qualitatively or quantitatively, being a loss, injury, or disadvantage from a social, economic, environmental, or regulatory standpoint
• Risk is estimated using the conventional risk equation: Risk = LOF x COF Risk was defined on a scale from Low to High based on COF ratings of Negligible to Severe and LOF ratings of Unlikely to Very Likely. Table 10-1 presents the adopted risk matrix.

Assets were classified by type and evaluated for LOF and COF to determine a risk rating. Water Meter, Line Valve and Fire Hydrant assets were evaluated as individual assets. Other individual asset assessments were aggregated into PRVs, Wells, Turnouts, Interties, Reservoirs, Pipelines and Pump Stations. Table 10-2 presents a summary of risk by these asset groupings. Some asset groups are represented in more than one risk level since individual assets or facilities are currently at different risk levels.

10.2 RISK MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES AND ASSET PROFILING
Risk management applied to utility planning and management leverages the assessment of LOF and COF into asset life-cycle decision-making. The combination of LOF and COF together provides a risk rating for assets and facilities. Risk Triggers are defined in this section.
10.2.1 Risk Threshold Triggers
Leveraging risk management involves more than just applying a decision point based on a current condition or risk rating to prioritize a project. Risk management affords the utility manager knowledge of the system to optimize maintenance, plan condition assessment activities, anticipate fiscal expenditures and prioritize refurbishment and replacement. Establishing risk threshold triggers is a valuable tool to anticipate when to modify current practices.

10.2.1.1 Risk Threshold Triggers
Risk threshold triggers can be set at many levels and for many responses; however, it is best to keep them simple and few to avoid complicating maintenance and asset management practices. To keep the analysis simple as the City begins developing its risk management efforts, triggers have been set as follows:
• Level A - Watch
• Level B - Investigate
• Level C - Act
10.2.1.1.1 Level A - Watch
This initial action level represents the point an asset or facility depicts aging or performance that requires increased attention, health checks or predictive maintenance efforts. Vertical assets such as mechanical and electrical equipment and structures warrant this attention and effort based on visual observations, age and runtime. Due to limited access associated with distribution systems, pipeline assets may pass through this level without action.
A typical action associated with this trigger includes maintenance modifications which may be indicated when the likelihood of failure reaches a level where predictive maintenance may be implemented or additional maintenance efforts may benefit the asset. Predictive maintenance is typically a data collection effort that informs the maintenance manager of potential faults or failures that may be remedied prior to an asset component failure.
10.2.1.1.2 Level B - Investigate
This secondary action level is consistent with condition assessment activities. Once an asset or facility reaches this level, a focused condition assessment may be planned to evaluate where the asset is on its useful life curve and identify potential operational or maintenance activities that may support extending its life. Condition assessment also provides the utility manager with valuable forecasting data for fiscal planning. Water distribution pipelines typically fit this profile based on age, combined with failure history and local conditions, such as aggressive soils and pipe type. Vertical assets fit this profile based on age, performance and predictive maintenance data collection.
A typical action associated with this trigger includes condition assessment activities which may be indicated when the risk rating of an asset or a facility reaches a level that advanced planning should be performed to identify its point on the useful life curve. Identifying this point supports advanced planning for rehabilitation and replacement as well as modifications to asset condition monitoring. Preventative maintenance efforts can support condition assessment.
10.2.1.1.3 Level C - Act
The third action level is the beginning of renewal activities. This may be as long-term as placement on a mid-range capital improvement plan or as immediate as design development and construction.
Rehabilitation and replacement (R&R) are indicated when the asset or facility risk does not support its intended level of service and, as such, requires some form of renewal. Rehabilitation and replacement must be planned sufficiently ahead of time to complete the activity prior to failure. 564

Water Master Plan
June 2022
10.3 RECOMMENDED PROJECTS
Recommended projects were identified based on the asset classification and the risk prioritization developed above. They include general maintenance modifications, detailed condition assessment, refurbishment and replacement.
10.3.1 Water Meters
Most of the City’s 16,351 Water Meters are beyond their typical useful life of roughly 15 years. Roughly 75 percent have exceeded this age in service. The City currently does not have a water meter replacement program other than replacement upon failure. For a water meter, failure is typically hidden resulting in an undetected meter accuracy reduction. The City is currently implementing an Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) program that will ultimately replace existing water meters to conform to the new AMI system.
With the AMI replacement of the water meter inventory the City should investigate the creation of a water meter test program. The American Water Works Association recommends testing of water meters at a minimum of once every 20 years. This minimum test interval is beyond the nominal useful life of a meter and simply serves to confirm that replacement is, in fact, warranted. A meter test program can be established with a goal to test an appropriate sample of water meters and to profile meter performance specifically in the City’s water system to confirm performance and useful life. A test program may begin at 10 years meter age with a goal to test 2 to 5 percent of the meter population per year.
As the AMI program evolves, the system will be selected, and it will be known if existing meters and meter components will be compatible with the new AMI system or if existing assets will require replacement. A new meter test program can then be configured based on the asset replacement rate associated with the AMI program and staffing resources.
10.3.2 Facilities
Each of the 32 facilities evaluated are at a risk trigger level of at least Level A which indicates each should be considered at a minimum for maintenance review.
Facilities at Level A consist of PRVs and Interties and, while they require little maintenance, the preventative maintenance (PM) program should be modified to include visual assessments at least annually to begin to collect condition data to support future decision-making.
Facilities at Level B and Level C include PRVs, wells, interties, reservoirs, pumping stations and turnouts.
The PM program should be modified as noted for Level A, as well as a detailed condition assessment program. Since these ratings are based on only a desktop assessment, assets at Level C are not immediately identified for replacement but should be given priority in condition assessment.
10.3.3 Pipelines, Fire Hydrants and Line Valves
Pipeline assets are at risk trigger levels as high as Level C based on the desktop condition and risk assessment performed. Given the level of data available to support the desktop analysis, it is recommended that the maintenance program be reviewed to capture measurable performance data associated with pipeline failures and that a comprehensive condition assessment be conducted of representative portions of the distribution system.

10-10 City of Milpitas
Water Master Plan
June 2022
Line valve and fire hydrant assets are at risk trigger levels as high as Level C based on the desktop condition and risk assessment performed. Slightly over half of the City’s 9,330 fire hydrants and line valves exceed a typical useful life of 30 years. The City recently acquired equipment to support a valve and hydrant exercise program to provide mainline flushing and valve maintenance. The program is just now beginning.
The exercise program should be developed with the objective to locate each valve in the field and confirm in GIS; confirm valves are operable, accessible and free of tuberculation; assure they are able to achieve a tight isolation; and, record depth, number of turns and turn direction. A valve exercise program should target the older system valves and hydrants rapidly in the first few years of the program and then settle into a pace of exercising all valves once every 5 years.
10.3.4 Summary of Asset Renewal and Replacement Recommendations Capital and non-capital recommendations are presented in this section.
10.3.4.1 Capital and Non-Capital Recommendations
A list of capital and non-capital recommendations was developed based on the risk assessment and the risk thresholds presented in this chapter and the Water Utility Condition Assessment Technical Memorandum (included in Appendix D). Table 10-8 presents these recommendations which include projects (capital) and improvement measures (non-capital) that respond to the current state of the City’s distribution system.
10.3.4.2 R&R Forecast and Methodology
R&R planning is a forecast of planned effort and expenditures for the renewal or improvement of an asset and ultimately the replacement of the asset. While not yet specifically indicated, pending actual condition assessment, a forecast of asset replacement was developed and included to establish a baseline order of magnitude estimate of asset R&R for fiscal planning. This forecast may be used for current fiscal planning but should be verified based on the findings of the recommended condition assessment studies.
Assumptions are presented below:
• Forecast year of action based on remaining asset useful life • Actual asset replacement assumed to be 20 percent of assets reaching project useful life A forecast of R&R expenditures is presented on Figure 10-2 and in Table 10-9. 571

Assessment
Conduct a comprehensive assessment of the pipeline distribution system using both destructive and nondestructive assessment techniques. Technologies may include cathodic protection resistivity surveys, coupon sampling and testing, acoustic surveys and electromagnetic surveys and leak detection monitoring. The condition assessment should include appurtenances to pipelines such as air valves, blow off assemblies, fire hydrants and valves.
The assessment should focus on metallic and asbestos cement pipeline material segments to document a correlation between pipe material, diameter, age and soil conditions to better estimate remaining useful life. $500,000

Data Gathering
Develop business processes and modify the CMMS to collect asset performance data.
Failure Hierarchy – A failure hierarchy should be developed that supports the capture of problems, causes and remedies (PCR) employed for each asset. A sampling of PCR codes is included Appendix D for PUMP assets.
Maintenance staff should then note the appropriate code in the work order when responding to asset problems.
Condition Assessment Data – Visual and predictive data elements should be developed, and the CMMS modified to provide data fields to capture this data during PM activities. At a minimum visual data should be collected to capture corrosion observations, concrete spalling, burning or arcing, and evidence of leakage. A simple domain should be developed to index readings including a photo-based guide for standardization between staff.
Predictive data should be consistent with the City’s predictive maintenance program and may include oil analysis, vibration monitoring and thermal imaging.
CMMS Automation - Business Processes and CMMS workflows should be developed or otherwise modified to require the completion of specific fields such as Failure Codes as part of work order completion. The completion of these fields will be controlled by automated workflow that does not allow the work order to advance from the work performer to the quality assurance reviewer unless all required fields are completed.

10.4 OVERVIEW OF SEISMIC RISK ASSESSMENT OF CITY’S WATER SYSTEM
FACILITIES
As part of the parallel preparation of the City’s Risk and Resilience Assessment (RRA), in compliance with America’s Water Infrastructure Act of 2018 (AWIA), a seismic risk assessment of the City’s water system facilities was conducted. A technical memorandum was prepared to document the methodologies used and estimated consequences associated with an earthquake event affecting the City water system. The technical memorandum is included as Appendix E of this Water Master Plan.
The earthquake scenario selected for the City is the Hayward-Rodgers Creek event described in the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Northern California Legacy Catalog (also referred to as ShakeMaps). At magnitude 6.8, this event represents the largest magnitude event described by ShakeMap in relatively close proximity to key City utilities. According to USGS, this event has an estimated annual probability of approximately 0.74 percent (i.e., a 0.74 percent chance of occurring in any given year), and an approximately 31 percent chance of occurrence within the next 50 years.
The Hayward-Rodgers Creek 6.8 magnitude earthquake is estimated to cause significant damage to the City’s non-linear and linear assets. The Hazus Method (for non-linear assets) estimates moderate damage to the buildings and moderate/severe damage to the pump stations and reservoirs. The ALA Method (for linear assets) estimates 8 breaks and 32 leaks from the transmission mains and 192 breaks and 58 leaks from the distribution pipelines. Repair and replacement costs are estimated using crew size, labor rate, shift duration, and order of magnitude material costs for the City. Specific recommendations resulting from the seismic risk analysis are included within the City’s RRA and include retrofit of reservoirs to meet sloshing wave standards, implementation of seismically resilient design standards for pipelines, and installation of overland piping connections for critical pipelines that may be damaged during an earthquake, among others. Recommended projects are incorporated in the recommended CIP described in Chapter 11 of this report.

CHAPTER 11
Recommended Capital Improvement Plan
This chapter presents the recommended CIP for the City’s existing and future water system based on the evaluations described in Chapters 8, 9, and 10 of this report, as well as the Risk and Resilience Assessment (RRA) conducted in parallel with this WMP. In addition to summarizing the recommended capital improvement projects, this chapter provides estimates of probable construction costs for each project.
The recommended CIP identifies improvements at a Master Plan level and does not necessarily include all required on-site infrastructure or constitute design of improvements. Subsequent detailed design is required to determine the exact sizes and locations of these proposed improvements.
It should be noted that construction costs for the recommended capital improvement projects have been updated from those presented in the March 2021 Draft Water Master Plan to account for the recent bidding climate. Total CIP costs include mark-ups totaling 70 percent of the estimated base construction costs to allow for:
• Design and Construction Contingency: 35 percent
• Engineering Design: 10 percent
• Construction Management: 15 percent
• Permitting and Implementation: 10 percent
This chapter organizes the components of the recommended CIP according to the evaluation that identified the improvements. The final section of this chapter summarizes the recommendations and groups them into five-year CIP phases through the year 2051. Sections of this chapter include:
• Improvements from Renewal and Replacement Study
• Improvements from Existing System Analysis
• Improvements from Future System Analysis
• Improvements from Risk and Resilience Assessment
• Summary and Phasing of Recommended Improvements
Based on the recommendations of this Water Master Plan, as well as the City’s recently completed Wastewater Master Plan and Stormwater Master Plan, the City of Milpitas retained Raftelis to prepare a comprehensive financial plan for the City’s water, wastewater and stormwater utilities for the period from FY 2022 through FY 2040. The financial plan for the water utility (included in Appendix F) considers the projected revenues and expenditures and seeks to optimize the use of rate revenues and bond issues to minimize revenue adjustments while meeting annual revenue requirements, debt service coverage, and reserve targets. The City’s water utility is financially self-sufficient with funding for capital and operating requirements derived primarily from rates.
11.1 IMPROVEMENTS FROM RENEWAL AND REPLACEMENT STUDY
Chapter 10 summarized the condition assessment of the City’s water utility assets and recommended projects and activities to manage infrastructure risk. Each water utility asset was evaluated for risk in terms of likelihood and consequence of failure, with recommended projects prioritizing higher risk assets.
Recommendations include general maintenance modifications, detailed condition assessment, and renewal and replacement.

11.2 IMPROVEMENTS FROM EXISTING SYSTEM ANALYSIS
Chapter 8 summarized the evaluation of the City’s existing potable water system and its ability to meet recommended operational and design criteria listed in Table 7-1 of this report. West Yost recommended projects to improve existing system operations. As discussed in Section 7.2.1, the existing system fire flow evaluation presents systemwide available fire flow and does not recommend pipeline improvements to specifically increase existing fire flow capacity. However, because results from the existing system fire flow analysis can help prioritize replacing smaller diameter pipelines to improve overall distribution system flows, recommended improvements from that analysis are included in the CIP.
Table 11-2 presents preliminary capital cost estimates for the recommended existing system improvements, which are organized by priority (high to low) and improvement type. West Yost assigned priorities based on the reason for the improvement, and these will help determine CIP phasing. High priority improvements address meeting recommended fire flows in normal conditions (i.e., no outages), while medium priority improvements address meeting recommended fire flows in emergency outage scenarios (e.g., SFPUC turnouts offline). Finally, low priority improvements consist of projects that generally improve system performance and/or reliability but do not address any specific issues (e.g., upsizing any 4-inch diameter pipelines that serve hydrants to comply with City design guidelines).
Where recommendations consisted of either a pipeline or valve improvement for a particular location (e.g., ECIP-V-01 or ECIP-PI-02), valves were selected for the CIP due to comparable cost and less potential disruption during construction (e.g., traffic impacts). Appendix G contains figures showing the location of these recommended improvements and, for some larger projects (e.g., EPRVs and new Ayer pump), single-page project summaries.

11-4 City of Milpitas
Water Master Plan
June 2022
The total CIP cost (including mark-ups) for improvements to the existing system is approximately $9.9 million. This includes a 50 percent discount for the new pump at the Ayer pump station, since the cost basis assumes an entirely new pump station, while the recommendation is to provide an additional pump at an existing pump station. In other words, a cost was developed for a new pump station with a firm capacity of 5.76 mgd (4,000 gpm), and half that cost was used to estimate installing a new 4,000-gpm pump at Ayer.
11.3 IMPROVEMENTS FROM FUTURE SYSTEM ANALYSIS
Chapter 9 summarized the evaluation of the City’s future (i.e., buildout) potable water system and its ability to meet recommended operational and design criteria listed in Table 7-1 of this report. Evaluation of the buildout system assumed that improvements recommended from the existing system analysis were implemented. Any buildout system deficiencies were then addressed via additional improvements.
Table 11-3 presents preliminary capital cost estimates for the recommended buildout system improvements. With demands in the VW service area increasing over 65 percent from existing levels, supply and storage capacity improvements are recommended. In addition to a new storage reservoir, the Curtis Well helps address the storage capacity deficiency at buildout by providing an emergency groundwater storage credit. The Cedar EPRV will help serve fire flows in Zone VW1 and improve system reliability. Since these projects address capacity deficiencies or improve fire flow, all are considered high priority. Appendix G contains project summary sheets for each of these recommended improvements.
The total CIP cost (including mark-ups) for improvements to the buildout system is approximately $16.6 million. This total does not include land acquisition costs, which may be necessary for the new storage reservoir. A public service utility easement is available for the Piper turnout, but space is limited.
As a result, it is assumed a pump station will not be constructed at the Piper turnout. While the Gibraltar facility has a pump station to boost low pressures from the Gibraltar turnout, to date the City has not used it. Therefore, constructing the Piper turnout without a booster pump station is acceptable.
11.4 IMPROVEMENTS FROM RISK AND RESILIENCE ASSESSMENT
West Yost conducted an RRA in compliance with the requirements of the 2018 America’s Water Infrastructure Act. This effort includes assessments of both cyber and physical risks and resilience and development of a risk and resilience strategy. Recommendations from the RRA, referred to as risk and resilience management strategies (RRMS), include physical upgrades, planning efforts, and cyber security projects.
Table 11-4 presents the recommended RRMS, organized by project type, along with a project description and priority as assigned in the RRA. High-level cost estimates were developed for four of the 23 RRMS.
These four projects and their costs, which total approximately $2.1 million (2020 dollars), are included in the CIP summary and phasing detailed in Section 11.5.

Steel reservoirs may be physically retrofitted to increase the roof height to meet the sloshing wave standard. It is recommended that the reservoirs be retrofitted to meet the standard.

11.5 SUMMARY AND PHASING OF RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS
This section combines the above recommendations and organizes them into five-year CIP periods according to project priority. CIP phasing generally consists of five-year periods spanning from 2021 through 2051. This period is 31 years, so the final CIP period spans six years (2046-2051). It was assumed that improvements from the existing system analysis would be implemented in the next ten years (i.e., by 2030), while improvements from the future system analysis would be implemented when existing facilities can no longer meet operational criteria summarized in Table 7-1 of this report.
It was assumed that condition assessments, water meter test development, and physical upgrades would occur by 2025. Asset renewal and replacement follows the schedule presented in Table 10-9 of this report.
Note, the asset renewal and replacement schedule was developed based on asset age and is subject to change pending findings from the recommended detailed condition assessments.
For the existing system analysis, high priority improvements are assigned to the 2021-2025 CIP period, while medium and low priority improvements are assigned to the 2026-2030 CIP period. As noted in Section 9.4 of this report, storage capacity is expected to become insufficient around 2032. Therefore, the new storage reservoir and Curtis Well (which reduces the storage requirement via an emergency groundwater storage credit) are assigned to the 2031-2035 CIP period. In contrast, firm supplies (i.e., largest turnout in each service area offline) can meet demands until around 2038, so the Piper turnout can be pushed to the 2036-2040 CIP period.
Table 11-5 summarizes the proposed CIP phasing and cost in 2020 dollars. Improvements are grouped according to their “source” (e.g., Renewal and Replacement Study), and their costs are assigned to a fiveyear CIP period. The total CIP cost through 2051 is approximately $82.1 million (2020 dollars). 582

City of Milpitas Water System Emergency Operations Scenarios This document is a simplified overview of some of the possible emergency conditions that may arise and what changes to system operations are possible to mitigate the impacts of those conditions on the delivery of water to the City’s water system customers. This is not a comprehensive how-to manual, as each emergency condition is unique, and the exact circumstances will dictate the actual actions to be taken.
This document is intended as a guide to what is possible, and to help guide the responder to considering all possible actions in response to any specific emergency condition. The scenarios below are listed individually, but may occur in any combination, and each will have to be taken into consideration and weighed against the existing system conditions at the time.

Item # 16.
1. Loss of Supply
a. Loss of SFPUC supply
The loss of SFPUC supply may can occur in three ways: Loss of a single turnout, a reduction in quantity from SFPUC, or the total loss of supply from SFPUC.
i. Loss of a Turnout
SFPUC water is supplied to the City by four turnouts:
Sunny Hills, Calaveras, Main Street and the
SFPUC/SCVWD Intertie (when available). The loss of a
single turnout can be compensated by the other
turnouts. Changes in flow patterns within the
distribution system will occur which can result in lower pressures in the extremities of the system and dirty
water in areas where the flow has reversed or
increased. These changes are most significant in zone
SF2. The use of Ayer pump station to support peak use
times is recommended.
ii. Reduction of Supply from SFPUC
In the event SFPUC cannot meet demands there may be a
reduction in supply. Here are the possible ways to add
supply to zones SF1 and SF2:
1. Pump from storage at Gibraltar and Ayer;
2. Activate Pinewood Well to pump to zone SF1;
3. (FUTURE) Activate Curtis Well to pump to either
Gibraltar or zone SF2;
4. Use water from SCVWD at Gibraltar to supply zone
SF1 through the use of the Intertie turnout;
5. Use water from SCVWD at Gibraltar to fill SFPUC
reservoir and pump to zone SF1;
6. Use water from SCVWD by opening isolation valves
in zones SC1 and/or SC2;
594
Item # 16.
7. Contact ACWD and/or SJ Muni to activate intercity
interties for zones SF1 & 2 – significant pressure
differences exist, and this is a last resort.
iii. Total loss of supply from SFPUC
In the unlikely event we lose all supply from SFPUC or
are required to isolate from SFPUC, the options are
similar to the partial loss scenario above but may
require a combination of options. Pumping from
storage is the most immediate remedy while the other
options are set up. Storage will not last long and is
dependent on the amount of water in storage at that
moment and the time of year the outage occurs. If the
outage will last more than a few days, use of Pinewood
and (future) Curtis Wells may be significant, as SCVWD
will likely be tasked to help provide water to SFPUC and their supply may also be limited.
b. Loss of SCVWD Supply
SCVWD water is only supplied to the City through a single turnout located at Gibraltar Pump Station. Loss of supply may occur as a reduction in available water or as a total loss. i. Supply Reduction and Total Loss Options
1. Pump from storage at Gibraltar and use the
VW turnout only to provide water to the
SCVWD reservoir;
2. Use SF water from the SFPUC/VW Intertie
directly from the Intertie turnout using the
Intertie PRV into zone SC2 – pressure will be
reduced to about 130 to 135 psi, max;
3. Use water from zone SF1 to provide water to the
SCVWD reservoir either directly (pumping to zone
595
Item # 16.
SF1 will not be possible in this configuration) or
by floating the two reservoirs, while pumping to
zone SC2.
c. Total Loss of both VW and SFPUC Supplies
i. In the event both wholesale suppliers lose the ability to provide water to the City, the remaining supplies are
limited to
1. Storage at Ayer and Gibraltar;
2. Pinewood, McCandless and Curtis Wells;
3. Intercity Interties with ACWD and SJWC.
ii. Pumping from storage would be the first recourse until the other two options are brought online. Ayer can
supply water from the center of zone SF2. Gibraltar
can provide water to zones SF1 and SC2.
iii. Pinewood Well can pump to zone SF1 directly. Future options may allow it to pump to zone SC1.
iv. McCandless Well, when completed, will be able to
pump directly to zone SC1.
v. Curtis Well, if completed, will be able to pump to any of the following:
1. Gibraltar Pump Station, either or both reservoirs;
2. Zone SF2;
3. Zone SC2; or
4. Zone SC1
vi. Intercity Interties with ACWD can provide water to
zones SF1 and SF 2 if ACWD has water to provide,
along the City’s north border.
vii. An Intercity Intertie with SJWC can provide water to zone SF2 along the southeast border of the City if SJWC has water to provide and the zone pressure in our zone
SF2 is low enough to accept water from SJWC.
d. Loss of Well Supplies
i. Currently, the only well capable of supplying water to the City is Pinewood Well. It is currently permitted as 596
Item # 16.
an Emergency Standby Well. Loss of this well would
remove it from the options to provide water in the
scenarios listed previously.
ii. Once all three of the City’s wells are completed and brought into service as everyday supplies, the loss of
supply from these wells would increase the amount of
water the City would pull from its wholesale providers, which could have contract implications. In the event of an emergency, the loss of these wells as backup water
supplies would eliminate the ability of the City to have an independent water supply under its control and
eliminate this option as a means to provide water
under any of the other emergency scenarios listed
previously.
2. Pump Station Issues
a. Loss of PG&E Power
i. Ayer
1. Ayer Pump Station is equipped with a 1,000 KW
Caterpillar Genset which is capable of
automatically starting and completely powering
the station and all three pumps in the event of
the loss of outside power.
2. The station has a 1,000 gallon (900 gallon
useable) above ground fuel storage tank that is
capable of running the station for 24 hours
before requiring refueling.
ii. Gibraltar
1. Gibraltar Pump Station is equipped with a 2.5
MW Genset which is capable of automatically
starting and completely powering the pump
station and all pumps in the event of the loss of
outside power.
2. The station has a 10,000 gallon (9,000 gallons
useable) above ground fuel tank that is capable
597
Item # 16.
of running the genset for 72 hours before
refueling would be required.
3. The station also has 3 diesel powered pumps
which can run independently with local
controllers even if the station has no power.
Pump 2 can be used to pump to zone SC2, pump
3 can be used to pump to zone SF1, and Pump 7
can be used as a booster to pump water directly
from the SCVWD turnout into zone SC2.
iii. Hillside
1. All three Hillside stations are reliant on PG&E
power for operation. All three do have a UPS
battery emergency supply that will maintain power
to the control panel and communications only.
2. Country Club and Tularcitos pump stations have a
quick connect transfer switch mounted on the
outside of the control building enclosures to be
used with a portable trailer genset in the event of
a power outage.
3. Country Club and Tularcitos also have pumper
connections that can be used with either a trailer
mounted portable pump or with a fire truck to
act as emergency pumps and bypass the station
to pump water to the next station. The City has a
portable Paco trailer mounted pump with a
capacity of approximately 1,000 gpm that can be
used at either station.
iv. Wells
1. Pinewood well is not currently set up to easily
take power from a portable generator set, nor
does it have any installed backup power
generator set. Loss of PG&E Utility power will
render the well essentially inoperable and unable
to serve water into the distribution system.
598
Item # 16.
2. McCandless Well is being designed with a quick
connect backup power transfer connection
switch similar to the Hillside pump stations and
should be operable to at least serve water on an
emergency basis.
3. Curtis Well will likely be designed to the same
standard as McCandless and able to use a
portable generator as backup power to serve
water on an emergency basis.
b. Loss of Water Supply
i. Gibraltar
1. Gibraltar Pump Station has three water supply
sources:
a. 42” pipeline from VW, known as the
Milpitas Pipeline or the East Pipeline;
b. 24” distribution line from Zone 1SF which
can draw water from Main Street Turnout
PRVs and Milpitas PRV (the Zone 1SF
connection to the Calaveras Turnout);
c. 10” connection to the VW/SFPUC Intertie
which we call the Intertie Turnout, and
normally draws SF water and is closed
when VW is using the Intertie to send water
to SFPUC.
2. Virtually any of these supplies can be used to
support the loss of any other supply through the
use of valving at the pump station and/or the use
of the two reservoirs onsite. The pump station
was designed with versatility in mind, both in the
manner and number of pump installations and in
the use of valves and bypass pipelines. There are
too many combinations possible to list them out
individually. Here we will list the general
possibilities – the Operator is encouraged to
599
Item # 16.
carefully examine the potential water pathways
for each situation to arrive at the best possible
solution and to ensure no harm will be done.
3. Loss of the 42” VW supply:
a. Intertie supply can be used through the
Intertie PRV by setting to its highest
pressure setpoint and closing the normally
open connection to Zone 1SF and then
opening the normally closed connection to
Zone 2SC - PRV will support about 130 – 135
psi, so zone will run at a slightly lower
pressure - the SF reservoir cannot be filled
while in this mode;
b. Booster or Peak Shaving pumps can be used
to supply water from storage by using a
Flow Through setup to supply the reservoir
from Zone 1SF – Pumps can be run in
conjunction with the Intertie PRV by setting
the pumps to the same pressure as the PRV
or the pumps can run in lead at a higher
pressure with the Intertie PRV acting as a
backup supply. Pumps 3 and 4 cannot be
used to pump water from the SF reservoir
while supplying water to the SC reservoir
from zone 1SF.
c. The 30” suction lines from the two 5 MG
reservoirs can be linked together by
opening valve BFV 101 between pumps 2
and 3. The level between the two
reservoirs should be as close to the same as
possible – the larger the difference
between them, the higher the water
velocity will be as valve BFV 101 is opened
and the levels begin to equalize. This
600
Item # 16.
method allows filling to occur through the
SF reservoir from either zone 1SF or the
Intertie PRV.
4. Loss of 24” zone 1SF line supply:
a. Use the Intertie supply to fill reservoir and
supply zone 1SF directly. Do not run pump
4 or 3 at the same time as filling the
reservoir from zone 1SF, water will only
recirculate and not supply the zone.
b. Use the SC reservoir by opening valve BFV
101 to equalize the SC and SF reservoirs.
See 2.b.i.3.c. above for caveats about
opening valve BFV 101.
c. Use the zone 2SC supply by closing valve
BFV 020 and then opening valve BFV 021A
to fill the SF reservoir from zone 2SC and
use pump 4 and/or 3 to supply zone 1SF.
This CANNOT be used to directly supply
zone 1SF from zone 2SC due to the
higher pressure.
5. Loss of 10” VW/SFPUC Intertie supply
a. This supply is normally only used when the
Intertie is not being used to send water
from VW to SFPUC or vice versa. Normal
configuration sends SFPUC water through
this connection to our zone 1SF. Loss of this
supply is made up from the 18” connection
to zone 1SF which draws water through the
distribution system from the low pressure
supply PRV at Main St turnout and/or the
Milpitas PRV, which is a nearly direct
connection to the Calaveras Turnout.
b. If it is not possible to fill the SF reservoir
through the distribution system connection
601
Item # 16.
to zone 1SF, there is a normally closed
connection to zone 2SC which can be used
to fill the SF reservoir. Since this is a high
pressure zone, it cannot be used to directly
supply zone 1SF – this must be done
through use of pumps 3 and/or 4.
c. An additional method to use VW water to
supply zone 1SF is to open the 30” isolation
valve between the two reservoirs so they
are both filled from the VW supply and use
pumps 3 and/or 4 to send water to
zone 1SF.
ii. Ayer
1. Ayer is supplied solely from zone 2SF. The station
currently has a single inlet/outlet design, so
water can only flow one way into or out of the
station at any given time, meaning the station
can pump out water or fill the reservoir, but
cannot do both at the same time.
2. Calaveras Turnout is the main source of supply to
Ayer pump station via large mains that come
directly east on Calaveras Blvd from the Calaveras
Blvd turnout and valve lot.
3. Loss of supply to Ayer would only occur if there
were a loss of the pipeline that supplies the station
from Calaveras Blvd, or if that segment of line was
not in operation. There is no alternative supply for
Ayer in either of those events, and Ayer would not
be able to pump water out to the system,
regardless of the quantity of water in storage.
4. A CIP project to provide a secondary pipeline
connection from zone 2SF to the station has
been proposed, but is not currently in design or
under construction.
602
Item # 16.
iii. Hillside
1. The Hillside, or La Questa, water system has only
a single supply source – zone 2SF. Water is
supplied from system pressure in zone 2SF to
Country Club Pump Station. CCPS then pumps
water into zone 3SF through a 12 inch
transmission and distribution line via 2 250 gpm
submersible vertical turbine pumps. This line
both supplies the zone and delivers water to a
350,000 gallon reservoir (Tularcitos) at the top of
the zone. This reservoir provides gravity pressure
to the zone when the pumps are not in use.
2. There is no alternative source of supply if water
cannot be delivered from zone 2SF to CCPS. If
CCPS experiences failure that results in neither of
the 2 pumps being able to pump water, then a
backup potable water trailer pump must be
brought in to act as the pump station. This pump
would hook up to a fire hydrant at the pump
station that would provide water from zone 2SF
to the suction side of the trailer pump, and then
the discharge line from the trailer pump would
be connected to a special pumper connection
designed for this purpose to provide water to
zone 3SF. If the trailer pump is not available for
some reason, a fire engine pumper can also
be used.
3. Tularcitos reservoir and pump station is the next
step in the Hillside water system. Tularcitos
Pump station is nearly identical to CCPS in that it
has 2 250 gpm submersible vertical turbine
pumps that send water from zone 3SF and/or the
Tularcitos Reservoir and deliver it into a 12 inch
combination distribution/transmission line that
603
Item # 16.
serves zone 4SFa and Minnis Reservoir. Minnis
Reservoir provides gravity head and flow for
zones 4SFa and 4SFb.
4. Loss of the pumps at Tularcitos would result in
the loss of water supply to Minnis and zones
4SFa&b. Use of a trailer pump would be needed
to replace the function of those pumps, similar to
CCPS. Supply would come from a connection on
the Tularcitos Reservoir, and discharge would be
connected to a special pumper connection,
similar to CCPS, to supply water to zone 4SFa and
Minnis Reservoir.
5. Loss of the Tularcitos Reservoir would result in
the loss of gravity supplied water to zone 3SF.
There are two ways to compensate for this
reservoir being out of service.
a. At CCPS there is a pressure relief valve
located in a vault with a manhole cover
between the fenced pump station and
Country Club Drive. This pressure relief
valve is specifically there to enable the CCPS
pumps to be run constantly to supply water
to zone 3SF at a constant pressure. The
pumps at CCPS are single speed pumps and
cannot be ramped up and down to respond
to demand changes in the zone to maintain
a constant pressure. Instead, the relief
valve will open at a set pressure to relieve
the excess discharge from the pumps back
into zone 2SF. This is not a perfect solution
because the water discharged back into
zone 2SF simply returns to the suction side
of the CCPS pumps, thus running in a circle,
and will result in the water being heated
604
Item # 16.
and boiled by the pumps if not relieved.
The solution to this is to use hoses to run a
constant flow from hose bib connections on
the discharge of each pump to the storm
drain so that a minimal flow of new water is
always coming into the pumps to keep
them cool.
b. The other method to replace the supply
from Tularcitos Reservoir is to use a
combination pressure relief valve/pressure
reducing valve located at Tularcitos Pump
Station. There is a double leaf hatch
covered vault with this valve located within.
This valve has dual pilot valve systems
installed on it, and normally uses the pilot
valve system that is configured to run the
valve as a pressure relief valve. This pilot
system must be shut down, and the pilot
valve system on the other side opened to
configure the valve as a pressure reducing
valve. This valve is connected to zone 4SFa
and zone 3SF. As a relief valve it opens to
relieve excess pressure from zone 4SFa to
zone 3SF. As a pressure reducing valve, it
opens to maintain use water from zone
4SFa/Minnis Reservoir to maintain a set
pressure in zone 3SF, thus doing what
Tularcitos reservoir was doing. This is the
preferred method to use when Tularcitos
Reservoir is not in service to maintain
pressure in zone 3SF.
c. Getting water from zone 3SF to zone
4SFa/Minnis when Tularcitos Reservoir is
not in service is different depending on
605
Item # 16.
which method you are using to maintain
pressure in zone 3SF. If telemetry is still
working between Minnis and Tularcitos, the
pumps at Tularcitos will cycle according to
the level in Minnis reservoir and can be left
to run on their own if using the CC pump
method in a. above. The pumps at CC will
supply water to the pumps at Tularcitos.
Only one pump at Tularcitos should be used
in auto to fill Minnis so that the capacity of
the CC pumps are not exceeded. If using
the pressure reducing valve method in b.
above to maintain zone 3SF pressure, the
pumps at CC and at Tularcitos will need to
be run manually and at the same time. The
level at Minnis will need to be monitored,
and the pumps both shut down at the
same time.
6. Loss of the Minnis Reservoir will result in the loss of gravity pressure and flow for zones 4SFa&b.
This is compensated by using the combination
relief and pressure reducing valve at Tularcitos in
a manner similar to using the relief valve at CC
when Tularcitos Reservoir is offline. With the
combo valve operating on the pressure relief
pilot system the pumps can be used to maintain
the pressure in the system. Similar to the CC
method, hoses need to be connected to the hose
bibs on the discharge side of the pumps in order
to keep a minimum flow through the pump and
prevent the water from recirculating through the
pump and overheating/boiling. See 5.a above.
606
Item # 16.
3. Distribution System Issues
a. PRV Station Loss/Malfunction
i. Pressure Reducing Stations take water from a higher
zone and feed it into a subsequent zone at a lower
pressure. They are both a source of supply and pressure regulator. When I PRV fails, it will usually show signs before having a catastrophic failure. The regulated
pressure will begin to increase and become more
difficult to control to the desired set point. A gradually rising pressure on the regulated downstream side of the PRV can be a sign that the valves main diaphragm has a
pinhole in it and needsto be replaced. It can also be a sign that the pilot valve is failing. If a PRV has failed or needs to be taken out of service the valve can usually be isolated by closing the up and down stream line valves
and allowing the lag PRV to take over the load, assuming there is a lag PRV – most stations are configured with
lead/lag parallel valves, but not all of them (Capital Ave and Parc Metro, for instance). If a valve does not have a parallel lead/lag to take over, the system balance may
need to be adjusted by checking the other PRV stations
and making minor pressure setpoint changes. Since
possible flow direction changes may occur in the
distribution system, this may result in dirty water calls and the need for flushing/NO-DES use to respond to the
water flow changes.
b. EPRV Station Loss Malfunction
i. The EPRV stations are single PRVs set to allow water to move from SF zones into corresponding SC zones in the
event that pressure falls in the SC zone below the
minimum setpoint of the EPRV. When this happens,
the EPRV will open and allow water to flow from the SF
zone to the SC zone and will try to regulate the SC zone toe the EPRV setpoint pressure. Malfunction of an
607
Item # 16.
EPRV will not result in overpressure of any zone, since the served zone is normally higher than the supplying
zone, and water cannot flow in reverse through a PRV,
even if it has failed. Loss of the function of this station only results in the loss of protection for the served
zone in the event that zone incurs a pressure
reduction. Zone isolation valves can be opened to
directly supply water from the SF zone to the SC zone if needed as an alternative to the EPRV.
c. Zone Interconnection
i. There are 44 zone isolation valves throughout the City.
These are valves that were closed when the City went
from being solely supplied by SFPUC to being supplied by both SFPUC and SCVWD (VW). There valves were
marked by using large G12 valve boxes and painting them red. The are only to be opened in the event a zone has a supply failure that results in the loss of supply and
pressure and all other means of supplying the zone are
not available. Opening of these valves will need to be
accompanied by flushing of the lines up and downstream
and there will likely be dirty/stagnant water.
d. Agency Interconnection
i. Milpitas has 3 intercity interties, two with ACWD and one with SJWC. Similar to the zone isolation valves,
use of these valves is a last resort emergency response measure. Pressures are not the same between the
separate agencies, and use must be coordinated
between both agencies before opening the valves.
ii. Connections with ACWD are located with one in zone
1SF on Milmont and one in 2SF on Churchill. The
connection with SJWC is located in zone 2SF at the
south end of the zone on Landess Ave.

SUBJECT: City of Milpitas – 2020 Water Master Plan Update – Hydrant Testing and HPR Placement Plan
This memorandum summarizes the proposed hydrant testing and pressure data collection procedures required to calibrate the City of Milpitas’s (City) potable water system hydraulic model. West Yost Associates’ (West Yost) recommended plan for hydrant testing and hydrant pressure recorder (HPR) placement is provided for your review and comment, as summarized in the following sections:
• Hydrant Testing
• Hydrant Pressure Recorder Placement
• Summary of Hydrant Testing and HPR Placement Plan
It is recommended the City shares this plan with the appropriate parties (e.g., water operations and/or Fire Department staff), so they are aware of the equipment being used or installed at the proposed testing/pressure monitoring locations. Field pressure monitoring is scheduled to occur beginning March 10 through March 18 (monitoring period), and hydrant testing is scheduled for March 11, 2020.
HYDRANT TESTING
The purpose of hydrant testing is to confirm the assignment of roughness factors (C-factors) to pipelines in the City’s hydraulic model. West Yost will use data collected though hydrant testing to ensure the assigned pipeline C-factors are appropriate and representative of actual field conditions. Hydrant tests were selected based on the combination of pipeline material type, diameter, and age that represents the majority of the City’s water distribution system.
Details related to hydrant testing are presented in the following sections:
• Personnel and System Data Requirements
• Hydrant Testing Schedule
• Testing Requirements and Procedure
• City’s Responsibilities

Personnel and System Data Requirements
West Yost would like to request the following City personnel and system data to accomplish the recommended hydrant testing under West Yost’s direction:
• Three (3) to five (5) City staff members (with vehicles) that will be available during regular working hours to assist with, but not limited to the following:
— Closing and re-opening valves, as needed, before and after hydrant testing — Reading and recording hydrant pressure data
— Flowing the test hydrant and de-chlorination
— Directing and controlling traffic and hydrant flows (i.e., to the nearest drainage inlet) to ensure safety
— Public outreach and interface, as needed
• System information during the monitoring period that includes the following:
— Available SCADA and telemetry data from all water distribution system facilities:
▪ Turnout flows and pressures
▪ Reservoir levels [feet]
▪ Booster Pump Station information (pump operational status, speed settings, discharge pressures [psi], and flow rate [gpm])
▪ Pressure Reducing Valve information (upstream pressure [psi], downstream pressure [psi], and flow rate [gpm], if available)
Hydrant Testing Schedule
West Yost requests that hydrant testing be scheduled from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM on March 11, 2020.
West Yost will meet with the City staff before hydrant testing at the City’s Public Works Department, located at 1265 North Milpitas Boulevard, to conduct a brief field coordination meeting to review hydrant testing procedure and protocol (i.e., where to go and what to do). West Yost will also use this coordination meeting to distribute pressure gauges necessary to complete hydrant testing (hydrant wrenches to be provided by City staff). In addition, West Yost will also discuss with City staff what order they prefer to conduct tests (i.e., avoid school traffic or commuter traffic, etc.) and to review hydrant tests that may present challenges.
Testing Requirements and Procedure
West Yost plans to conduct up to ten (10) hydrant tests within the City’s water system. Figure 1 shows the proposed hydrant test locations. In addition, four (4) alternative hydrant tests have been identified. If any of the primary test locations are unable to be completed, an alternative location may be used. Table A-1 in Attachment A lists the proposed test locations. Details regarding each of the proposed tests (e.g., flowing hydrant, observation hydrants, closed valves, etc.) is also provided in Attachment A (Figures A-1 through A-14).

Memorandum
March 9, 2020
o\c\270\60-19-16\wp\HHPRTP\020420_1M
Each hydrant test will involve maintaining flow from a single hydrant while monitoring the residual pressure at two (2) to four (4) observation hydrants located near the flowing hydrant. The field-observed static and residual pressure readings will then be used to confirm pipeline C-factors to calibrate the hydraulic model to observed conditions. Hydrant test locations have been selected to isolate pipelines of a particular material type, diameter, and age. Some tests will require City staff members to close one (1) or more isolation valves prior to the test and then re-open these isolation valves following the test.
The general testing procedure at each of the hydrant test locations is outlined below and illustrated on Figure 2:
Step 1. Before attaching the pressure gauge, flush the test (flowing) hydrant and each observation hydrant to remove sediments, which might damage the gauge or cause faulty readings.
Step 2. Attach the pressure gauge to the hydrant with the gauge’s test cock valve open.
Slowly open the hydrant and bleed off the gauge with the gauge’s test cock until the hydrant is fully pressurized.
Step 3. Close the gauge test cock valve, and then measure the static pressures at the designated test hydrant and each observation hydrant.
Step 4. Flow the designated test hydrant and measure the discharge flow and pressure.
Step 5. Measure the residual pressures at the designated test hydrant and at each observation hydrant while the test hydrant is flowing.
Step 6. Continue monitoring pressure until the “all clear” is given by a West Yost employee. Record the static pressure and then detach the pressure gauge.
IMPORTANT: Before closing the hydrant, be sure the gauge’s test cock valve is open and bleeding while the hydrant is being closed.
At least one (1) City staff member will be required at the flowing test hydrant and up to two (2) additional City personnel will be required in the field to assist with the opening and closing of valves (refer to Attachment A). West Yost will provide three (3) staff members to direct, oversee, and assist in the field data collection work effort.
It is anticipated that each hydrant test will take no more than 30 minutes and that each hydrant will be flowing for no more than 10 minutes during a test.
Testing Equipment
West Yost will provide a 4.5-inch diameter Swivel Piezo Diffuser and pressure gauges during the hydrant testing program. It is our recommendation that the 4.5-inch diameter Swivel Piezo Diffuser be used for all proposed hydrant tests. For any hydrant test where is it not possible to use this type of diffuser due to drainage or traffic control issues, an alternative method will need to be further evaluated and confirmed before the day of field testing. 613

City’s Responsibilities
The City will be responsible for providing the following hydrant testing equipment:
1. Vehicles
2. Hydrant wrenches
3. Equipment for closing valves and controlling traffic
4. De-chlorination equipment1
5. Two-way portable communication for each testing personnel The City is also responsible for notifying residents, and other City staff and departments (i.e., Fire Department) about the scheduled hydrant testing, obtaining approvals that may be required, and providing proper drainage of the hydrant flow.
West Yost requests that the City staff review and inspect each of the proposed test locations before the testing date to identify any potential problems or hazards with the selected locations. Of concern is the potential for flooding landscaping or building basements or creating hazardous traffic conditions. West Yost recommends that all drainage inlets/manholes be inspected near the testing site to confirm proper drainage. Additionally, the City should check the location and status of hydrants and valves that will be operated during hydrant testing. Detailed figures, which illustrate the flowing hydrant, observation hydrants, and valves to be closed, are provided in Attachment A.
HYDRANT PRESSURE RECORDER PLACEMENT
Placement of HPRs at key hydrants within the City’s water system allows West Yost to verify pressures simulated in the City’s hydraulic model. West Yost has identified twenty (20) hydrants to monitor water system pressures with HPRs. The selected HPR locations are typically downstream of water supply facilities (e.g., turnouts, booster pump stations, and pressure reducing valves).
West Yost is proposing to install the twenty (20) HPRs on March 10, 2020 to collect pressure information for a total of one (1) week. West Yost plans to attach the HPRs to the 2.5-inch port on specified hydrants and lock them in place with a padlock. After the seven-day monitoring period is complete, West Yost will remove the HPRs from their locations (March 18, 2020) and download and review the collected data. Figure 3 shows the general location of each HPR. Table B-1 (in Attachment B), describes the approximate location of each HPR and the water supply facility being monitored. Attachment B also includes detailed figures showing the specific location of each hydrant selected for HPR placement (Figures B-1 through B-20). West Yost requests that City staff review and inspect each of the proposed HPR placement locations before the placement date to identify any potential problems with the selected locations. 1 Handling of water released from each hydrant test will need to comply with City Operations procedures and be consistent with the City’s NPDES permit for planned releases from hydrant tests. 615

o\c\270\60-19-16\wp\HHPRTP\020420_1M
It is important for City staff to coordinate with the Fire Department and any other appropriate parties regarding the HPR locations and duration of monitoring. This will help reduce the chance of inadvertently shutting off a hydrant with an HPR installed and may also reduce the risk of an HPR being removed or tampered with. Each HPR is equipped with a padlock and a set of keys will be provided to the City staff. However, in case of an emergency, the Fire Department can break the lock to remove the HPR. If an HPR is required to be removed during a non-emergency, or if the associated hydrant needs to be shut off, West Yost requests that the Fire Department inform City staff and that City staff will then coordinate with West Yost.
SUMMARY OF HYDRANT TESTING AND HPR PLACEMENT PLAN
Hydrant testing will be performed as described above beginning at 7:30 AM on Wednesday, March 11, 2020. West Yost proposes to install HPRs on Tuesday, March 10, 2020 and remove them on Wednesday, March 18, 2020. The locations and associated detailed location maps of the designated hydrants for testing and HPR placement are presented in Attachments A and B, respectively.
West Yost requests a conference call with City staff on Wednesday, March 4, approximately one week before the scheduled testing day, to review and finalize preparations for the hydrant testing and HPR placement. An Outlook meeting request will be sent to City staff to finalize a suitable meeting date and time.
Please feel free to contact Roger Chu at (925) 425-5631 or Amy Kwong at (925) 461-6788 if you have any questions or comments.

2020 Water Master Plan
Water Utility Condition Assessment
This Technical Memorandum (TM) summarizes the condition assessment that was performed of the City of Milpitas’s (City) water utility assets under Task 3 – Water Utility Asset Condition Assessment of the 2020 Water Master Plan Update (Master Plan). This TM presents assessment methodologies, asset valuations, likelihood and consequence of failure factors, and risk scores as summarized in the following sections:
1.0 Scope of Work
2.0 Review of Existing Information
3.0 Asset Replacement Cost and Current Valuation
4.0 Risk Assessment Framework
5.0 Likelihood of Failure Methodology
6.0 Consequence of Failure Methodology
7.0 Risk Assessment
8.0 Conclusions
SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of this assessment includes:
• Preparing an estimate of remaining useful life and replacement cost of assets; • Developing a risk policy consisting of likelihood of failure (LOF) factors, consequence of failure (COF) factors, and interpretation of both LOF and COF to define risk; and • Performing a desktop risk analysis of utility assets.
Each asset was evaluated according to the risk policy, resulting in risk scores for each water system asset.
Risk scores and corresponding risk action thresholds can be used for decision making including selection and prioritization of asset renewal or replacement efforts. The analysis results will be used to inform the Task 7 Rehabilitation and Replacement Study of the Master Plan.
The standardized evaluation process established in the risk policy can be used in future assessments of condition, risk, and valuation of water system assets. The policy framework was developed so that risk factor definitions are commensurate across assets from other City utilities and can be applied to other departments. Should new data become available to support additional or refined risk factors (e.g. pipe break data with failure cause, condition assessment data, etc.), these can be developed within the risk framework proposed herein.

REVIEW OF EXISTING INFORMATION
This section describes the existing information upon which the assessments were based, and any data processing required prior to undertaking the assessments.
2.1 Asset Data and Asset Registry
The City provided two data sources containing water system asset information: a master inventory spreadsheet and a GIS database.
The master inventory spreadsheet contained information on water facilities including wells, pump stations, reservoirs, PRVs, turnouts, interties, and isolation valves. In addition to facility data, the spreadsheet contained information on select individual assets at each facility (e.g., for a pump station, the pump size(s), manufacturer, model, and other attributes were provided).
The City’s existing GIS database was outdated and was updated by HydroScience as part of their work on the City’s Sewer Master Plan (being completed concurrently). The updated database contained geospatial and attribute information for horizontal water assets including pipelines, valves, backflow preventers, blow off assemblies, hydrants, and meters.
The master spreadsheet and GIS database were compiled to create an asset registry of all City water system assets. Upon comparison of the two data sources provided by the City, it was observed that several assets were present in both databases. Duplicate entries included: isolation valves (40), PRVs (18), and reservoirs (5). To reconcile the duplicates, a coordinate comparison was performed in GIS to identify duplicate isolation valves; and visual inspection in GIS was performed to identify duplicate PRVs and reservoirs. Duplicates were removed from the respective database prior to compiling the asset registry.
The asset registry facilitated the condition and risk assessment discussed herein and provides a database for the City to track and manage their assets moving forward. This database is provided as a separate deliverable which consists of an Excel spreadsheet titled Asset Registry and Risk Results.xlsx and may be used to refresh the City’s CMMS database.
The final asset registry contained 35,260 entries, consisting of 35,173 horizonal assets and 87 vertical assets. The breakdown of assets by type is presented in Table 1. 663

2.2 2002 Utility Depreciation Study
A Utility Depreciation Study (Schaaf and Wheeler) was performed in 2002. The study included the following:
• An inventory of all City water system assets;
• Replacement costs for those elements; and
• A timetable for replacement of water system elements based on anticipated remaining useful life estimates.
This replacement cost analysis assumed unit costs based on a March 2003 ENR Construction Cost Index.
Table 2 presents the resulting replacement costs from the 2002 study for the City’s water system assets in 2002 dollars.

2.3 2018 Soil Corrosivity Study
In 2018, the City commissioned a soil corrosivity study (JDH Corrosion Consultants, Inc.) to develop a comprehensive database related to corrosion potential of the soils throughout the City. The assessment was focused on water pipelines made of asbestos cement (AC), ductile iron, cast iron, dielectric coated steel, and mortar coated steel materials. Based on in-situ soil resistance measurements and a review of previous soil evaluations, strategies were developed for long-term corrosion control of AC and metallic pipelines. 665

ASSET REPLACEMENT COST AND CURRENT VALUATION
Asset replacement cost and current valuation estimates are asset management best practices that can afford utility agencies improved decision making. This information provides agencies more accurate and integrated information about their assets, and allows more productive relationships with governing authorities, ratepayers, and other stakeholders because they can provide better information in a more transparent way.
Asset Replacement Cost estimates can be used to guide rehabilitation and replacement budgeting.
Typically, investment in replacement should cover at a minimum, the deprecation of the assets.
Asset Current Valuation estimates are required to support transactions (public-private partnerships, outright sale, etc.), insurance coverage or claims, and rates cases.
3.1 Water System Asset Replacement Cost
A water system asset replacement cost estimate was developed which represents the cost to replace the entire system in-kind, at current construction and design standards. Costs were developed based on a combination of data supplied by manufacturers, published industry standard cost data and curves, construction costs for similar facilities built by other public agencies, and construction costs previously estimated by West Yost for similar facilities with similar construction cost indexes. Details on cost estimating assumptions are provided in a separate appendix of the Water Master Plan.
A summary of the water system replacement costs is presented in Table 3a. Detailed replacement costs are provided in the Asset Registry and Risk Results Excel workbook.

3.2 Water System Current Valuation
Using the 2020 replacement cost estimate presented in Table 3a, a current water system valuation was prepared using asset useful life estimates (discussed in detail in the Asset Useful Life section) and assuming a straight-line value reduction or depreciation. A straight-line depreciation assumes that the value of an existing asset is reduced gradually over its useful life in a linear relationship. For example, a pipe with 50 percent remaining useful life is valued at 50 percent of its total new replacement cost value.
The water system asset valuation estimates the value of individual assets only, not the inherent value of the water system as a whole.
The 2020 water system asset valuation assuming straight-line depreciation is presented in Table 3b.

RISK ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORK
Understanding the risk of each water system asset can help water utilities to prioritize highest-risk assets for renewal or replacement, allowing limited resources to be allocated most effectively. The two components of risk include:
• Likelihood of Failure (LOF), which estimates the probability that a failure will occur in an asset by meeting the end of its physical, design, service, or economic useful life; and • Consequence of Failure (COF), which estimates the impacts of asset failure expressed either qualitatively or quantitatively, being a loss, injury, or disadvantage from a social, economic, environmental, or regulatory standpoint.
Risk is then estimated using the conventional risk equation:
Risk = LOF x COF
The following sections present the LOF and COF methodology that was developed for the City’s water system assets, and then calculates asset risk using the risk equation. 668

LIKELIHOOD OF FAILURE METHODOLOGY
A desktop assessment was performed on existing water utility assets to estimate the LOF of each asset.
For this assessment, asset failure is defined by the asset’s inability to perform as intended or needed in its application. The primary failure mode utilized for this assessment was physical mortality, which is defined as physical deterioration due to age, usage, or acts of nature. Operational efficiency failure was also evaluated to consider the reduction in pipeline asset performance due to pipe roughness.
Supplemental asset data such as failure history and asset condition assessment can also be used to evaluate LOF. This data was not available at the time this analysis was performed.
For each asset type, one or more LOF factors were developed for each failure mode, as presented in Table 4a.
Table 4a. Asset Failure Modes and LOF Factors
Failure Mode Failure Description LOF Factor
Physical Mortality
The percent of useful life remaining considers that older assets are more likely to fail than newer ones due to the age of materials and wear from repeated use.

LOF ratings were assigned for each factor using standard definitions presented in Table 4b. Ratings and definitions range from 1 – indicating that an asset is in good condition and asset failure is “unlikely”, to 4 – indicating that asset is in poor condition and asset failure is “very likely”. Finally, each asset was evaluated under each applicable LOF factor to develop an overall LOF rating.

5.1 Asset Useful Life Defined
Asset useful life is generally considered to be the time that an asset provides valued service, after which it does not meet its intended service level. End of life is not necessarily indicative of catastrophic failure, and in most cases an asset can still hold functionality when it has reached the end of its useful life. Absent quantifiable condition or performance data, the assumption is that the older the asset, the greater likelihood it will fail.
Municipal water system assets vary by type, manufacture, design, construction, and quality. They have different characteristics in how they operate and, consequently, will have different profiles of how they perform and ultimately fail. Asset useful life expectancies are documented by the American Water Works Association and Water Environment Research Foundation (WERF) in addition to other notable industry associations. Useful life values presented here are nominal and consistent with the water utility industry and are not specific to any geographic region.
5.1.1 Non-Pipeline Useful Life
Table 5a presents a summary of useful life by asset type which were used for the assessment of the City’s vertical and non-pipeline horizontal water utility assets. Pipeline assets are discussed separately in the following section.

5.1.2 Pipeline Useful Life
Pipeline useful life can vary significantly based on pipe size, material, and environmental conditions. The City’s 2018 soil corrosivity study indicated that the City’s AC pipe was more susceptible to failure in clay soils due to the pipe stresses associated with contraction and expansion of the soil. Smaller diameter AC pipes were especially susceptible to failure due to their relatively low resistance to soil movement. The report recommended a range of AC pipe useful lives based on pipe diameter. The investigation also mapped soil corrosivity and found that soils throughout the City were “severely” to “moderately” corrosive to metallic pipes (cast iron, ductile iron, steel).
Table 5b presents the useful lives for pipelines based on industry standards and the JDH report. It includes a base useful life (not considering soil conditions) and an effective useful life for AC pipe in clayey soils and metallic pipes in corrosive soils. Reinforced concrete pipe was considered vulnerable to corrosive soils due to the potential for exposed reinforcement steel.

5.1.3 Asset Remaining Useful Life Defined
The asset useful life estimates discussed above were used to calculate the remaining useful life (RUL) of each asset with the following formulas:
RUL = Asset Useful Life – Asset Age
RUL (%) = (Asset Useful Life – Asset Age) / Asset Useful Life
5.1.4 Estimation of LOF based on Remaining Useful Life
Decay curves can be used to illustrate the progression of asset degradation (decay) over an asset’s useful life. The curves in Figure 1 were developed by WERF1 and represent empirical failure patterns at several 1 WERF SIMPLE (Sustainable Infrastructure Management Program Learning) 671

polynomial rates that may be experienced in the water industry. For this assessment, Late Decay 2 curve was selected as the indicator of likelihood of failure based on the following assumptions:
• Once municipal assets are beyond the point of early mortality, only a gradual decline in asset condition is expected to occur for much of the asset life. Early mortality is characterized by asset failure very soon after the asset is commissioned and in service. The occurrence of early mortality is often associated with manufacturing and installation issues. • Late Decay Curve 2 provides only a 30 percent reduction in asset condition for the first twothirds of the asset life. This is considered a nominal reduction in condition for a major milestone in the asset lifecycle and represents a suitable objective for asset performance. • Late Decay Curve 2 provides a progression that is not significantly steep in terms of asset degradation over the final, remaining, one-third lifecycle.
Figure 1 also shows how Late Decay Curve 2 is used to correlate asset remaining useful life with the LOF rating (e.g. for an asset with a % RUL of 30 percent, the LOF rating is 2).
Figure 1. Percent Remaining Useful Life and LOF Rating
Several assets in the City databases were missing age or installation dates. These assets were assigned an LOF rating based on the following assumptions:
• AC pipe was assigned a rating of 4 under the assumption that AC pipe was not installed after the mid-1980s (and therefore the % RUL would be zero). 19 miles (894 pipe segments) of AC pipe had an unknown age/installation date.
• Remaining assets of unknown age were assigned a rating of 3 to account for the generally higher risk associated with unknown asset age and condition. 26 to 50% RUL

5.2 Pipeline Hydraulic Conditions
Pipeline conditions from the hydraulic model were considered to evaluate LOF factors of pipe roughness (operational efficiency failure mode) and operational pressure (physical mortality failure mode).
5.2.1 Pipe Roughness
Hydrant testing was performed over a portion of the distribution system to determine calibrated pipeline roughness, or C-Factors (see Task 4 of the Master Plan, presented in Chapter 6). Calibrated C-Factors from the hydraulic model were used to determine the reduction in C-Factor when compared to the C-Factor of a brand-new pipe of the same material. The result of the C-Factor comparison is presented in Table 6.

5.2.2 Operating Pressure
Operating pressure was obtained from the calibrated hydraulic model under an average day scenario, with system pumps operating. Pipeline assets were evaluated for high operating pressure as an influence to increased LOF. Through discussions with the City, pipeline assets operating continually in excess of 135 psi regardless of design class were considered to be at higher risk of failure or increased LOF.
5.3 Supplemental Condition Data
Supplemental condition data typically consists of focused condition assessment studies of assets and facilities to determine condition based on an established set of metrics and criteria. Such assessments should be performed at intervals generally less than the asset’s useful life to confirm condition and status on the useful life curve. Maintenance records may also capture details from asset failure and problems.
This information can be used to document type and frequency of failures that serve as an indication of asset condition and be used in the future to develop additional LOF factors. 673

5.4 Likelihood of Failure Evaluation
Assets were evaluated under each applicable LOF factor to develop an overall LOF rating. Pipeline assets were assessed based on the criteria outlined above consisting of RUL and operating pressure. Nonpipeline assets considered only RUL alone. Since these criteria are baseline and easy to assess they serve as the fixed LOF criteria.
Given the availability of supplemental data, the other criteria were incorporated as modifiers to the LOF assessment. LOF scores were subjected to the other criteria as potential modifiers that could increase the LOF rating if additional data were available. These modifiers include pipeline roughness, failure history from maintenance or other failure data, and focused condition assessment activities.
Both fixed and modifier LOF factors were assigned a weight based on the relative importance of each factor. For the fixed LOF factors, RUL is weighted to represent 80 percent of the total rating, while operating pressure represents 20 percent of the total rating. The maximum possible weighted rating for the fixed LOF factors is 4. LOF modifiers are only evaluated if the fixed LOF rating is less than 4. LOF modifiers can increase the overall rating up to 1 additional score, resulting in a total possible LOF rating of 4. Table 7 presents the LOF criteria and rating definitions.

5.6 Facility LOF Results
The previous section describes the method for assigning an LOF rating for each asset. For vertical assets, multiple assets can constitute a larger facility; for example, the Ayer Pump Station facility includes a pump, motor, generator, fuel tank, PLC, and VFD. LOF can also be estimated at the facility level by considering the LOF of individual components within that facility. LOF was estimated for Milpitas water system facilities by averaging the associated component LOFs, weighted based on the individual component value. The applied weighting considers the fact that assets of a lower value should have a lesser impact on the overall facility LOF, whereas assets with a higher value should have a greater impact on the overall facility LOF.

CONSEQUENCE OF FAILURE METHODOLOGY
Consequence of failure (COF) rates the severity of consequences should an asset fail. Consequences typically include system performance impacts; economic or social impacts to the City, residents, or the community; safety impacts; and local or regional environmental impacts.
COF factors were developed in collaboration with City staff to reflect both City Council Core Goals and Priority Areas.
6.1 Consequence of Failure Framework
The Milpitas City Council has adopted a series of goals and priority areas that identify critical elements important to the City in the services it provides. These Goals and Priority Areas are outlined in the City’s 2020 fiscal budget as shown below.
Core Goals Priority Areas
• Superior Customer Service
• Integrity and Accountability
• Recognition and Celebration
• Open Communication
• Trust and Respect
• Public Safety
• Transportation and Transit
• Neighborhoods and Housing
• Governance and Administration
• Environment
• Economic Development and Job Growth
• Community Wellness and Open Space
Council objectives such as these can typically align with the critical objectives of a utility’s performance and can therefore be related to asset performance and the consequence of an asset failing. A COF framework was developed based on the Council Goals and Priority Areas. Each goal and priority area were evaluated for applicability to asset COF and, for those that could be developed, were categorized, measured, and rating definitions developed. Every objective except for: Recognition and Celebration; Open Communication; Neighborhoods and Housing; and Community Wellness and Open Space were developed into factors within the COF framework. Table 10 presents the COF framework and eight proposed COF factors.

6.2 Consequence of Failure Rating Defined
The COF framework presented in Table 10 was further developed into a model to assess COF for both horizontal and vertical assets by defining rating interpretations for all factors. Interpretations were developed into metrics such that COF ratings could easily be assigned with asset characteristics or geospatial data, avoiding manual evaluation of individual assets. For horizontal assets, this included assessment based on pipe size, street classification, land use, and hydraulic modeling. For vertical assets this included similar assessment criteria along with asset type.
COF ratings were assigned for each factor using standard definitions presented in Table 11. Ratings range from 1 – indicating the consequence of asset failure would be “negligible”, to 4 – indicating the consequence of asset failure would be “severe”. Tables 11 and 12 present the COF factors, metrics, and ratings for horizontal and vertical assets, respectively.

RISK ASSESSMENT
Risk combines both LOF and COF to determine the resulting level of risk exposure that an agency is likely to confront through a potential failure of an asset. Assets with the highest risk have both a high likelihood of failure (i.e., poor condition or increased potential to underperform) and a high consequence of failure (i.e., significant consequences should failure occur).
The conventional risk equation, which was employed in this assessment, is the product of LOF and COF:
Risk = COF x LOF
7.1 Risk Interpretation
Individual COF and LOF factor definitions were combined to define the overall risk of each asset, interpreted as a Low, Medium, Medium-High, or High risk level. Table 16 presents the risk level matrix and risk definitions.

7.2.6 Facility Risk Results
The risk for each facility was evaluated based on the resulting facility LOF and COF ratings discussed previously and the risk equation. Table 27 presents the detailed LOF and COF ratings for each facility. Note the four-by-four risk matrix has been expanded to one decimal to provide greater granularity. The overall facility risk scores (LOF x COF) and risk levels are shown in Table 28 from lowest to highest risk. 690

CONCLUSIONS
8.1 Horizontal Assets
The desktop analysis indicates the horizontal infrastructure of the water system is well into its useful life curve with most assets rated 3 (“likely” asset failure) or higher for LOF.
The consequence of failure analysis indicates that horizontal assets expose mostly a negligible to minimal impact should they fail, with a small percentage of assets potentially yielding a moderate impact.
Overall, the majority (71%) of pipeline assets have a risk rating of Low, with a high LOF and low COF. There is a significant risk exposure to pipeline failure due to this high LOF, which is primarily due to asset age.
Hydrants, valves, and meters are also at a Low risk level with generally advanced age contributing to a higher LOF but a relatively low COF.
8.2 Vertical Assets – Facilities
Facilities were generally rated 2 or higher for LOF. The City has developed most of its newer infrastructure in well and reservoir facilities (Curtis Well, Gibraltar Reservoirs, Minnis Reservoir), which are rated with an LOF of less than 3. Remaining facility LOF was consistently rated between 2.4 and 3, except for the Country Club Pump Station, Tularcitos Pump Station, Pinewood Well, Ayer Pump Station and Gibraltar Pump Station which were rated from 3.2 to 3.7. These higher LOF values are indicative of higher asset values with advanced age, suggesting a greater and more immediate investment need in asset renewal.
Facility COF ratings ranged from 2 to 3.4, with the highest ratings assigned to pump stations, reservoirs, and wells. PRVs, interties, and turnouts were all rated below 2.9.
8.3 System Level Risk Summary
The overall risk of the water system is low for horizontal infrastructure and medium-high for facilities.
Table 29 illustrates the risk at the distribution system level, allocated by each asset type. Note that some facility types are noted in multiple risk levels.

SUBJECT: City of Milpitas - Summary of Methodologies and Results from Hazus® Earthquake Model and American Lifelines Alliance® Analysis
PURPOSE AND INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this technical memorandum (TM) is to document the methodologies used to estimate consequences and risks associated with an earthquake event affecting the City of Milpitas (City) water system. The results of this analysis conclude in the estimation of the direct consequence of a representative earthquake scenario for the City. The consequence estimates presented herein do not include consideration of community economic losses (e.g. indirect or induced) that may occur due to extended periods without water service.
This TM is organized as follows:
• Introduction to Hazus and American Lifelines Alliance (ALA) Methodologies • Earthquake Scenario Selection
• Estimated Damage States and Restoration Times
• Estimated Service Denial
• Conclusion and Disclaimer
• References
INTRODUCTION TO HAZUS AND ALA METHODOLOGIES
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has developed a standardized methodology for estimating losses from certain natural hazards, including earthquakes. The methodology, known as Hazus, addresses flooding, hurricanes, coast surge, tsunamis and earthquakes. Specifically, the Hazus Earthquake Model is designed to “produce loss estimates for use by federal, state, regional and local governments in planning for earthquake risk mitigation, emergency preparedness, response and recovery”. 695
