Why is WDA/IJDC doing this Project?

WV WDA and IJDC anticipate that over the next 5 years, $200 - $325 million dollars will be available annually for funding WV water, wastewater and stormwater infrastructure projects.

It currently takes > 5 years to begin construction on projects that receive a commitment of funds from WDA/IJDC.

SLIDE 3

What are the Overall Objectives of the CPS?

To reduce the time to begin construction to a maximum of 18 months,To allow the unserved and underserved residents of WV to fully recognize the benefit of upcoming funding.

SLIDE 4

WDA and IJDC must reinvent their existing funding process and apply technology to help them identify,

prioritize, manage, track and accelerate these projects in a cost-

effective and efficient manner.

Defining Success Project Mission Statement

Develop technology tools to help identify, prioritize, manage, track

and accelerate water, wastewater, and stormwater projects in a cost-

effective and efficient manner throughout West Virginia.

SLIDE 5

For this statewide CPS to be successful, it will be critical to:

Develop an efficient and effective process to track and manage projects;

Identify appropriate data to be collected and from whom, and collect it in a timely manner;

Develop user-friendly technology tools that support the screening, evaluation, prioritization and tracking of projects;

Maintain, update and distribute data; and

Communicate the purpose of the project and provide education on the results.

Technology Implementation at the WDA

• GIS for Decision Support

• Leverage Existing Data

• ESRI-Based

• Custom WebGISTools

• Effective Data Management– W/WW providers – location of facilities– Number of customers served– Treatment plant size/capacity– Demographics/environment– Topography/geology– Served/unserved areas

• Decision Support– Custom GIS environment– Web-based applications– Decision support tools

Leveraging existing data sources will result in seamless GIS implementation and integration.
