Like many utilities across the country, OCWA has an aging infrastructure in need of replacement and rehabilitation. Projects to address these issues are chosen based on periodic master planning that looks at numerous factors, including infrastructure age, condition, and risk of failure, regulatory requirements, and changes in demand. These projects focus on rehabilitation, replacement, and upgrades to our water treatment, pumping and storage facilities, and major transmission mains within the distribution system.
