Customer Case Studies
Oakland County, MI
Oakland County provides water and wastewater services for 25 member communities, serving nearly 700,000 people. Reviewing and analyzing data from more than 240 devices – flow meters and rain gauges – with multiple measurements made by each device every few minutes, collected over 20-plus years, created more than a billion data points. The County uses H2Ometrics for wholesale billing and system operations.
Los Angeles, CA
The City of Los Angeles Sanitation (LASAN) is using H2Ometrics to manage and analyze data from 200 flow meters. Conveying roughly 350 MGD of sewage through a network of 6,700 miles of wastewater pipes to one of four reclamation plants, this system is one of the largest in the country. H2Ometrics is used to conduct data visualization and review, scatterplot analysis, mass balance checks, and I&I analysis.
NOCWA, MI
Comprised of the Cities of Auburn Hills, Pontiac, Rochester Hills, and Orion Township, NOCWA was formed to manage peak demands from their water supplier, the Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA) by jointly operating and managing their system storage. H2Ometrics is used to share operational data, collaborate and monitor system operations jointly across the four municipalities.
OHM Advisors
As our first customer, OHM Advisors has used H2Ometrics for a variety of projects and client engagements over the years. Applications have included over forty (40) sanitary sewer models using the H2Ometrics Antecedent Moisture Model, and numerous smart water and sewer monitoring applications.
Franklin County, Ohio / Brown and Caldwell
Franklin County used H2Ometrics to perform a sanitary sewer inflow and infiltration analysis using data from 50 flow meters and rain gauges. The analysis was performed by Brown and Caldwell’s Columbus office and they credited H2Ometrics with being very efficient, easy to use and saving a lot of time on the analysis.
Ann Arbor, MI
Ann Arbor has used the H2Ometrics Antecedent Moisture Model to perform a wet weather flow analysis and model of their system to understand system capacity and to evaluate the effectiveness of their Footing Drain Disconnection Program. The also used H2Ometrics to manage the data from the flow metering and perform the wet weather flow analysis.
Farmington Hills, MI
Farmington Hills uses H2Ometrics to monitor system performance and peak water usage. With a water supply contract from the Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA) that stipulates steep penalties for exceeding contractual flow limits, the City closely monitors summer time water usage using H2Ometrics alerts and reports.
Ypsilanti Community Utilities Authority (YCUA), MI
YCUA is a regional water and sewer authority that serves the City of Ypsilanti and the Townships of Ypsilanti, Pittsfield, Augusta, Superior, York and Sumpter. YCUA uses H2Ometrics for both their water and sewer systems.
On the sewer side, YCUA used H2Ometrics to manage data collected from 20 flow meters for their sewer meter based billing system. H2Ometrics is used to aggregate the data, review the flow meter performance, edit the data and process the sewer volumes for billing.
On the water side, YCUA uses H2Ometrics to monitor system performance and peak water usage. With a water supply contract from the Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA) that stipulates steep penalties for exceeding contractual flow limits, YCUA closely monitors summer time water usage using H2Ometrics alerts and reports.
Canton Township, MI
Canton uses H2Ometrics to monitor system performance and peak water usage. With a water supply contract from the Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA) that stipulates steep penalties for exceeding contractual flow limits, the City closely monitors summer time water usage using H2Ometrics alerts and reports.
Western Townships Utility Authority (WTUA), MI
WTUA is a regional sewer authority that serves the Townships of Canton, Northville and Plymouth. WTUA uses H2Ometrics to manage data collected from 30 flow meters for their sewer meter based billing system. H2Ometrics is used to aggregate the data, review the flow meter performance, edit the data and process the sewer volumes for billing.
Grosse Ile Township, MI
Gross Ile uses H2Ometrics to monitor system performance and peak water usage. With a water supply contract from the Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA) that stipulates steep penalties for exceeding contractual flow limits, the City closely monitors summer time water usage using H2Ometrics alerts and reports.
Livonia, MI
Livonia uses H2Ometrics to perform smart sewer system monitoring using real time flow and depth data collected from a series of permanent flow meters in the City. They use the alerts and reports tools to receive updates on system performance and alerts to any unusual conditions during dry weather flow. During wet weather events, they use H2Ometrics to monitor any surcharging in the system to perform advanced notice of the risk of basement backups.
Fishers, IN
Fishers used the H2Ometrics Antecedent Moisture Model to determine the sizing for a sanitary retention facility to mitigate the risk of sewer overflows from their system.
Bloomington, IL
Bloomington used the H2Ometrics Antecedent Moisture Model to perform a comprehensive assessment of their sanitary collection system. The model was used to evaluate the risks of sewer overflows and to size improvements to perform sufficient wet weather sewer capacity.
Columbus, OH
Columbus used the H2Ometrics Antecedent Moisture Model to perform a pilot evaluation of the reduction of system inflow and infiltration from the sewer rehabilitation program.
Heart of the Valley (HOV), Wisconsin
HOV is a regional sanitary collection system that serves the communities of Combined Locks, Darboy, Kaukauna, Kimberly, and Little Chute. HOV used the H2Ometrics Antecedent Moisture Model to perform a comprehensive evaluation of the reduction of system inflow and infiltration from the sewer rehabilitation program.
Wayne County, Michigan
Wayne County was the first large-scale, commercial application of the H2Ometrics antecedent moisture model for sanitary sewer modeling. The Wayne County Director of the Environment, Kurt Heise, credited H2Ometrics with reducing the size of the Rouge Valley tunnel from a $265 Million dollar project to a $90 Million dollar project, a savings of $175 Million dollars.
