Highline Water District Asset Management Plan

Highline Water District (HWD) is a municipal water system located just south of Seattle, Washington with 280 miles of water line.  Many of the water system assets are aging significantly, as they were constructed predominantly in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s.  In order to better manage its infrastructure assets the HWD desired to establish an Asset Management program.

GHD was contracted to prepare the Asset Management Plan (AMP) in conjunction with BHC’s Water Comprehensive Master Plan Update.  The objective was to summarize the ability of the HWD to deliver water services to its customers in the AMP.  This was achieved through the development of the AMP.

The AMP enabled the HWD staff to review the future replacement needs and expenditure of all the asset types in their portfolio.
