The Demand Management Unit within DEP is tasked with development of a citywide strategy that will outline DEP's plan for implementation of water demand management projects between now and 2021. The Water Demand Management Plan identifies six key strategies for managing water demand in New York City in light of the Water for the Future program, and details 21 specific initiatives to be implemented over the next eight years in order to achieve targeted water demand reductions.
This report provides a summary of updates made to models developed during development of Waterbody/Watershed Facility Plans (WWFP) submitted in the late 2000s to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). Over time, sewer system models are modified and updated based on new information obtained during various facility planning and design projects.
In 2011, the New York City Water Board appointed Veolia Water to partner with the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) in an effort to identify opportunities to make improvements in every aspect of New York City's drinking water, sewage collection, and wastewater treatment operations. The initiative, branded Operational Excellence (OpX): The Best Always Do Better, is an opportunity for DEP to take employee ideas and best practices from water utilities across the globe to continue to achieve the agency's goal of being the safest, most productive, cost-effective, and transparent water utility in the nation. This report reflects six months of analytical work completed by the OpX team with DEP management and employees. The analytical work of OpX has confirmed that DEP is a world leader in meeting drinking water and wastewater compliance, performing well above the average of similar utilities. At the same time, the analysis indicates opportunities exist to develop new areas of strength for the organization that could result in operating benefits of potentially $108-$130 million per year.
