2012 California Infrastructure Report Card
June 12, 2012
InfrastructureReport Card?
Why Do We Need That?
To Assess the State of Our Infrastructure
To Properly Plan for the Future To Develop Timely &
Adequate FundingOpportunities
To have a Uniform and Consistent Message
Historical Reluctance to Fund Infrastructure Renewal
Unexpected Failures
Major Rate Increases
“Out of Sight, Out of Mind”Attitude Leads to Two Bad Outcomes:
Municipalities and Other Public Agencies Cannot Afford the Problems and Risks Associated with...
High-Cost Emergencies & Damage Repairs
Because…
System Failures & Liability Claims
Customer Outrage from Service Outages
Over the next 28 years, California’s Population is Expected to Grow at a Rapid Pace. It is Estimated that by the Year 2040, there will be More than 54,000,000 People that will Call California Home
So, What Does That Mean?
• More Traffic Congestion with Longer Commutes
• More Expensive Housing that Many Residents May Not be Able to Afford
• Crumbling Infrastructure Unable to Meet Increasing Demands
• Less Open Space, More Pollution of Beaches and the Coast
• Declining Quality of Life
OUR GOAL
HELP TO IMPROVE CALIFORNIA’S
INFRASTRUCTURE
FOR
A HIGHER QUALITY OF LIFE
California Infrastructure Report Card (CAIRC)
CAIRC Structure
Executive Committee Set the Overall Objectives, Principles, and Methodology• Working Groups Gathered Data and
Developed individual Report Cards • Review Council Reviewed and Critiqued
Methodology and Findings• Public Relations Committee Developed
PR Material and Contacted Media (over 100 people)
INFRASTRUCTURE CATEGORIES
Aviation Levees/Flood ControlGrading Criteria Ports Condition Solid Waste Capacity Transportation Operations Urban Runoff Security Wastewater Water
Assessment Criteria Condition
• Existing or Near Future Condition Assessment
Capacity• Exiting and future capacity• Master Plans and Funding Plans available
Operations - Very Infrastructure Dependent• Complying with regulatory requirements• Having sufficient funding levels for facility
maintenance, i.e.. The number of overflows in wastewater systems NPDES discharge violations for stormsewer systems
Security
So, How Did CA Do?
$65 BillionAnnual Need
Aviation C- C+
Air Travel Demands are Increasing We Have Limited Existing Capacity We Face Increasing Restrictions California Must Ensure Efficient Air Travel and Cargo
Transport by Maintaining its Competitive Edge: Expanding Existing Airports Building Regional Airports
Annual InvestmentNeed of $300 Million
(To Achieve a B Grade – Typical of All Categories)
Levees/Flood Control F D
Real Potential for Catastrophic Disaster to Life and Property 235 miles of urban levees and
918 Miles of non-urban levees do not meet design criteria
Annual Investment Needof $2.8 Billion
Ports C+ B-
Our Ports Provide a Vital Link in the Movement and Supply of our Nation’s Goods & Materials
Ports are Like Mini Cities Overall Infrastructure is in Good Shape Today, but
Projected Cargo will Double by 2020 Infrastructure Must be Upgraded
to Facilitate Rail/Truck CargoExchange
Annual Investment Needof $1.7 billion
Solid Waste B B
Solid Waste Systems Operated by a Combination of Public & Private Entities
Recycling has Resulted in 65% Reduction in Solid Waste Delivered to Landfills
Advanced Planning is Underway to Extend Landfill Capacity Through the Year 2037
Needed to MaintainCurrent $8.0 B AnnualFunding is Maintained
Transportation D+ C-
141,000 centerlines miles of street, 25,000 bridges throughout 58 counties
Average PCI of 66. If left at current funding level, PCI will be 54 by 2020
The Overall Grade of C- Reflects Concerns About unfunded transit needs,
16 Corridors in LA Area in the top 40 worst congestions sites across US per Texas Transportation Institute’s November 2011 Report
Annual InvestmentNeed of $36.5 Billion
Urban Runoff D+ D+
Water Quality Problems Impact our Daily Enjoyment of Life
Funding for urban stormwater has not kept pace with state and federal regulations
Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) are a tool for cleaning polluted water. They are costly to develop and implement
Regional Watershed-Based,Multi-Purpose and Multi-AgencySolutions & Funding are Needed
Annual InvestmentNeed of $6.7 Billion
Wastewater C+ C+
100,000 Miles of Sewers & 900 Wastewater Treatment Plants
4 billion gallons of Wastewater Generated Every Day by California’s Citizens & Businesses
SWRCD’s WDRs have helped highlight and stabilize collection systems conditions
State database shows efforts being made to improve collection systems
Annual InvestmentNeed of $4.5 billion
Water C+ C
Water is Vital to Life for all Californians Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta - A Vital Role in
Water Delivery Aging facilities risk public safety, water supply
reliability, and water quality Need Sustained Investments will
to Increase Sustainability &Ensure Future WaterSupply & Reliability
Annual InvestmentNeed of $4.6 Billion
This is not good, is it??
We must aim to remedy these problems in the short term.
Emergency repairs can cost anywhere from 5-16 times more than on-time and preventive maintenance
In 2006 we projected an annual need of $ 37 billion. In 2012 that number is $ 65 billion. We are kicking the can down the road.
So, What’s the Solution?
1. The “Self-Help” Model 2. Pay As You Go3. Public Private Partnership (PPP)4. Environmental Streamlining5. Optimized Decision Making Tools/
Principles of Effective Asset Management
“Just invest in those infrastructure that you want to keep!!!”
