MWH Soft has announced that the city of Garden Grove, Calif., has selected MWH Soft’s H2OMAP Sewer for its comprehensive wastewater facilities master plan.
Located in the north central area of Orange County, less than one mile from Disneyland, Garden Grove covers nearly 20 sq miles and serves a population of about 172,040. It maintains and services more than 312 miles of sewer lines, 9,700 manholes and four lift stations. Once wastewater passes through the city’s sewer system, the Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) is responsible for its treatment. The treated water is then recycled for commercial use or deposited back into the ocean.
“Effectively managing our sewer collection system requires sophisticated analysis and GIS integration capabilities, and H2OMAP Sewer builds on the advantages we gained with our switch to H2OMAP Water software,” said David Entsminger, water services manager for the city’s Public Works Department. “For us, MWH Soft’s H2OMAP software suite is the clear choice. Its ease of use, superbly engineered GIS interface, incredible speed and numerical stability and comprehensive modeling functionality are all exceptional."
Developed and supported by industry experts, H2OMAP Sewer is used worldwide by municipal engineers and planners to create detailed, accurate models of sewer infrastructure systems. These models enable users to evaluate the effect of new developments, zoning changes and other additional loads on system flows; pinpoint current and future problem areas; and quickly determine the most cost-effective design, rehabilitation and operational improvements to achieve optimum performance.
"We’re proud to know our H2OMAP advanced modeling solution will be helping the Garden Grove build a foundation for success in the decades to come,” said Paul F. Boulos, Ph.D., president and chief operating officer of MWH Soft.
