Water Use & Efficiency

July – September 2018 - New materials are posted on the Microsoft Team site. Note that all files previously located on the AMI Data SharePoint site have been moved to this new site.

Work over the last 6 months has focused on developing and implementing a methodology for outlier analysis and developing preliminary rate-of-use metrics.

January – March 2018 - As of 4/01/18, the hosting provider, having gone through a few business acquisitions, is no longer providing the SharePoint hosting services to EMA. Therefore, a new Microsoft Team Site was created and all participants were notified. All files that were previously located on the AMI Data SharePoint site have been moved to the new site.

August 1, 2017 - January 31, 2018 - The team observed different levels of comfort in addressing uncertainty through the principals of probability management. Resource planners and demand analysts have displayed the most comfort and desire to address uncertainty, perhaps due to recent experience with water demand volatility.

Different levels of comfort were observed for addressing uncertainty through the principals of probability management.

Data collection is 95% complete and the focus of recent work has been on summary and analysis. Interesting and
potentially significant findings have emerged.

November 15, 2017 - May 15, 2018 — The objectives of this project are to describe models, methods, and practices currently used to forecast long-term demand, and to support water resources and infrastructure planning and management by developing recommendations that will help improve the role and effectiveness of demand forecasting practices.
