The costs of maintenance, repair, and replacement of transmission mains and distributionsystem piping that serve urban and rural areas of the United States is expected to exceed $75billion over the next two decades to ensure that public water systems are capable of deliveringsafe drinking water. In many municipalities, available funding is inadequate to meet the costs ofinfrastructure replacement or rehabilitation. Infrastructure Management Systems (IMS) havebeen developed to assist utilities and decision-makers in planning and resource allocation forinfrastructure. In this case study, a tool for prioritizing infrastructure replacement was developedbased on using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to facilitate analysis of the waterinfrastructure managed by the City of Tampa Water Department (TWD).
