CAPITAL PLAN
2016 – 2025
SUMMARY
The Allentown Division Capital Plan (Plan) is a ten-year plan that covers the years 2016 through
2025. The Plan includes water and wastewater projects to assure facility / infrastructure
reliability and to comply with the Lease required projects. It also includes projects and studies
deemed necessary by LCA, where the latter will identify and evaluate upgrades and
improvements that will be incorporated in future Capital Plans. The Lease requires that LCA
submit a 5-year Capital Plan to the City for review and approval which is incorporated within the
Capital Project summary tables.
The projects identified in the Plan fall into to two primary categories, those funded by LCA and
those funded by the City, with the latter further categorized as Administrative Order (AO)
projects and Uncompleted Work (UW).
AO Projects: This includes projects necessary to bring the City’s wastewater system into
compliance with the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Administrative Order to
eliminate Sanitary Sewer Overflows / By-passes at Outfall 003 of the wastewater treatment
plant. Pursuant to the Concession Lease Agreement (Lease) the City is responsible for making
all decisions related to this work; and for funding said work. LCA is responsible for the
execution of the work. .
UW Projects: This category includes projects that the City’s expected to be completed before
the Lease began, but were not completed prior to the Lease start. The City and LCA reached an
agreement providing that LCA will manage these projects but be reimbursed by the City for all
project cost. Of these projects, the WWTP Bar Rack replacements and WFP Chemical Building
Roof replacements, have been completed by LCA since the Lease inception.
Funding by Budget Area and category is as follows:

Water Projects: Focus on regulatory compliance, immediate and future needs at the Water
Filtration Plant (WFP) future needs and addressing the Lease operating standards. Projects at
the WFP include a Master Plan that will identify capital improvements to address future
regulatory requirements and/or operational needs. Funding is also provided to replace a leaking
segment of the Schantz Spring main located on Martian Luther King Blvd; the annual
replacement of 2-miles of aged and/or failing spun and pit cast water main as required by the
Lease; and other infrastructure replacement as needed.
Wastewater Projects: The Projects focus on regulatory compliance, immediate and future needs
at the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) and addressing the Lease operating standards.
Projects include the replacement of five motor control centers, replacement and/or rehabilitation
of the three belt filter presses, the replacement of two digester covers at the WWTP, and for the
replacement and/or rehabilitation of defective sewer mains when warranted.
Additional information regarding these projects can be found in the Plan’s individual detail
sheets.
Supplemental Revenues: Under the Concession Agreement, LCA is able to charge Capital Cost
Recovery Fees and Capital Recovery Fees to City customers. These charges will be applied to
all Major Capital Improvements (MCI), which are defined as projects exceeding $1 million
(indexed for inflation in the future) within the proposed Plan. We expect 8 projects will generate
capital recovery charges, which will generally begin in the year following completion of MCI.
Over the span of Plan annual charges will rise from $373,000 beginning in 2017 to $4,542,000
in 2025 and generate total charges of $27,867,000.
These revenues will be used to pay capital project costs on a current basis or used to justify
incurring additional debt. For example, the $4,542,000 annual revenue would justify borrowing
over $70,000,000 for a 30 year term and provide all funding designated as Operating Revenues
in the table below.

FINANCIAL JUSTIFICATION
Under the Concession financing, LCA financed projected Capital Improvements for the
Allentown Division, in the amount of $ 32,105,407 with $ 24,220,000 projected to be available
as of 1/1/16. These funds are anticipated to be exhausted by 2017 based on the proposed plan.
In 2018 and beyond, LCA anticipates that Capital Projects will be funded through a combination
of available reserves, operating surplus and/or additional borrowings.

2. Location:
3. Description:
Funding will cover the on-going replacement of equipment that is nearing the end of its useful life and to address
unforeseen equipment failures Equipment will be constantly evaluated and repaired or replaced as needed. A Water
Optimization Study and a Water System Master Plan will begin in 2015. Future projects will be identified as a result of
these studies.
The Water Filtration Plant was constructed in the 1920's with upgrades in the mid 1950s and mid 1990s. Much of the
water plant infrastructure is at or past its expected useful life. The WFP and associated pumping facilities provides the
water for City of Allentown and a large portion for LCA central Lehigh Division. A breakdown of critical equipment could
lead to regulatory violations and/ or interruption or reduction the water supply.

A majority of the City's water distribution system is pit cast iron or spun cast iron mains. Some of the pit cast mains date
back to the turn of the century, however the spun cast mains have a higher failure. Although the entire system will be
evaluated, LCA will work closely with the City Streets department to coordinate main replacements in advance of the
annual City Street paving schedule. Note: At minimum $500,000 of spun cast iron water main shall be replaced in any
given year
The Operating Standards of the Concession Agreement require replacement of 2-miles of pipe per year (1-mile in the
first year) . Until such time as the City deems it not necessary.

The following studies are included in this Project
(1) Water Filtration Plant Coagulant Change - Conduct a study to assure that the change in the type of coagulant to a
more reliable and robust chemical will not impact the quality of the finished water. (2) Water System Master Plan - (a)
conduct a full-scale condition assessment of the water plant and all remote stations, reservoirs, and storage tanks. (b)
conduct an operational audit to optimize plant operations, chemical usage, power consumption, etc. (c) prepare shortterm, medium-term and long term Capital Plans based on condition assessment and operational audit results. Master
Plan will evaluate among other items: both surface water intakes, filter upgrades, preparation to fully-treat Schantz
Spring water. (3) West End Pressure Booster Station Feasibility Study - conduct a study to assess the location, cost,
etc for a pump station/storage tank on the city's west end where typical pressures have historically been only slightly
higher than the regulatory limit of 20 psi.
To assure the highest quality water and to plan for future upgrades to the WFP in order to meet water production needs.
Focus will be made on keeping both ground water sources fully operational and reliable as they are the groundwater is
less costly to treat than either surface water.

City Water System Hydraulic Model
AD-W-10
Preparer:

8/4/15
Allentown
2. Location:
3. Description:
Develop a calibrated all-pipe, hydraulic model of the City water system. It is envisioned that the model will utilize, when
applicable, the semi-automated data update programming that was developed for the LCA Central Lehigh Division
model. The model will be upgraded from the current 10,000-pipe version to the unlimited-pipe version.
There is no model of the City water system. As such there is no dynamic way to evaluate the capabilities of the water
system and identify areas where pipe sizes or the network configuration impacts needed fire flows and water age. A
model would be a useful tool in evaluating sections of aged mains that have not structurally failed to determine if
replacement is warranted.

Schantz Spring Chlorine Booster Station
AD-W-13
Preparer:
Allentown
2. Location:
3. Description:
Schantz Spring and the surrounding areas have historically been subjected to local power failures, leading to operational
problems such as interrupted chlorine feed. In order to address this, a chlorine booster station was to be added
between Schantz Spring and the Allentown Water Plant. With the inability to obtain clearance for a site in the City
Parkway, and with the installation of LCA's backup generator across Schantz Road, the project was changed to provide
localized backup power at the Schantz Spring chlorination building. A UPS backup supply will be added to the building
to power the chemical feed pumps and the building has been interconnected with the LCA generator. More reliable
chemical pumps have been added in addition to automatic data recorders. A static mixer may be added to the
transmission line ahead of the chlorine analyzer if fluctuating chlorine levels are seen.
Schantz Spring is a inexpensive groundwater supply source for the Allentown Division and as such is subject to the EPA
Ground Water Rule, which requires that a specified minimum chlorine residual be maintained at all times. If the residual
is not maintained, all of the water in the 30-inch diameter 5-mile long Schantz Spring transmission main must be wasted
otherwise a boil water notice might be required. Currently there is only one chlorination station on the Schantz
transmission line and it is located at the Spring. Historically unreliable local power supply has made operation of the
Schantz Spring station problematic during storm events.

2. Location:
3. Description:
This Project completes the remaining work of the City's Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) project. The City AMR project
included the replacement of ~27,000 aged residential meters ranging in size from 5/8" to 2" and ~155 commercial meters
that were 3" or greater in size. Radio read capability was included on all meter exchanges, allowing for mobile read
application. The project includes the purchase and implementation of Water Analytics software package which is a data
repository to store massive amounts of data that will be gathered from the meters in the Allentown division. The stored
data will be used in identifying and addressing customer metering issues. 747 meter installs were not completed in the
city AMR because the sites were either vacant or not accessible.
Replacement of aged meters that may not be registering all water usage is expected to reduce the amount of nonrevenue water. Analysis of metering data will allow for enhanced customer service including data-backed resolution of
customer metering complaints, flow analysis and other useful functions.

Transmission Main Evaluation, Replacements & Rehabilitation
Allentown
2. Location:
3. Description:
This project involves leak detection of many older and large sized water transmission mains that are located within the city
which is planned to be completed in 2015 . Based on the findings, appropriate repairs or replacements of those mains will
be made. The costs of the replacements and repairs are included in this project. The previous year of the project
involved non-invasive leak detection of approximately 32,000 feet of cast iron and steel transmission mains. Years 1-10
assumes, when warranted, that the rehabilitation and/or replacement of approximately 500 feet of transmission main will
be done annually.
Many of the existing transmission mains are approaching 100 years old. The mains range in size from 16" to 36", and
could cause serious local damage if a major break should occur. A pro-active program to find any leaks in these areas,
followed by remediation of the problem, will keep the chances of major damage to a minimum.

General Water System Replacements/Improvements
AD-W-19
Preparer:
Allentown
2. Location:
3. Description:
Distribution system valve, fire hydrant, blow-off, sample station, ect. replacements will occur annually. If warranted,
funding is also allocated to replace some lead services and to provide looping for problematic dead end water mains.
Funding is also allocated for replacement of other infrastructure on an as-needed basis, an example of the is replacement
of a segment of the Schantz Spring raw water main that is exposed due to erosion.
Valves that are found to be defective during routine exercising must be repaired, if possible, or must be replaced. Fully
operational valves are needed throughout the distribution system in the event that a leak or main break must be isolated
in order to allow for remediation. In some cases, eliminating dead ends in the distribution system will generally improve
water quality and fire service.

Badger Meter Replacements
AD-W-20
Preparer:
Allentown
2. Location:
3. Description:
There are approximately 5,000 badger water meters that are currently being used to monitor water
consumption in the city. These sites were not a part of the original City of Allentown AMR project in
2012/2013. The sites also have existing, but outdated ERTs which are now approaching the end of their useful
lives. Should LCA decide to implement Project AD-W-21 (Fixed Base AMR), the outdated 40W/50W/60W ERTs
will not be readable on the new system. The replacement Neptune meters can read much lower flows
compared to the badger meters and some revenue may be lost because very low flows are not being recorded
presently.
The existing badger water meters are reaching the end of their useful life. They also utilize the old 40W/50W/60W
ERTs which are also approaching the ends of their useful life.

Fixed Base Meter Reading System
AD-W-21
Preparer:
Allentown
2. Location:
3. Description:
The city of Allentown's original AMR project started in 2011 and ran into 2013. There were insufficient funds from the
Pennvest Loan to cover all 33,000 water meters and a drive by system was selected for this reason also. The original
AMR was installed as a hybrid system which is upgradeable to a fixed base system. A fixed base system provides
instantaneous readings of any water meter via a radio signal directly to the customer care center through a series of
transmitters and repeaters installed throughout the water system service area.
A fixed base system would allow for instantaneous readings on any account. In order to implement the fixed base
system, a data repository must be installed to house the enormous volume of data that will accumulate. The data
repository was an original component of the City's AMR project.

AD-W-22
Preparer:
Allentown
2. Location:
3. Description:
There have been several instances over the past few years when the water plant and/or the high level distribution
systems were without power. All four (4) high level distribution systems presently have manual transfer switches and a
single portable generator was purchased in 2015. The wastewater plant needs a permanent generator and manual
transfer switch for the chlorination building, both having been designed in 2015. 2016 will include design of back-up
power needs for the Crystal Spring and Schantz Spring pumps in the water plant. Having the Schantz and Crystal pumps
operational during a power failure will allow for approximately 10-12 MGD of potable water to be pumped into the
distribution system until the power failure is over and the water plant can be re-started.
Emergency power will allow the water plant to pump both Crystal and Schantz Springs, providing 10-12 MGD while
extending the time until the distribution system starts to experience low pressure.

Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Replacement of Motor
Control Centers
AD-S-5
Preparer:

Allentown
2. Location:
3. Description:
This Project will replace five aged motor control centers that provide power on a 24/7 basis to various parts of the
WWTP. Most of the electrical gear to be replaced is from 1968. Replacement parts are nearly impossible to find and
compliance with industry codes is a real concern.
The motor control centers are located in areas where they are exposed to corrosive wastewater gas and have
deteriorated considerably over their 50 year lifetime. Because of their age, replacement parts are nearly impossible to
find. This equipment is critical for the daily operation of the WWTP.

Allentown
2. Location:
3. Description:
As infrastructure ages and regulations become more stringent, there are periodic needs for professional services to
study the feasibility of changes, upgrades, etc. The following studies are requested in 2016: (1) WWTP Condition
Assessment - Some original components of the Allentown WWTP are bearing in on 90 years old. A general condition
assessment of the WWTP is long overdue and would be very similar to the type of study which is being implemented at
the Allentown Water Plant for the same reason. (2) WWTP Feasibility Study to use alternate disinfectant - There
many health and safety risks to using chlorine gas as the sewage plant disinfectant, and a feasibility study is needed to
determine the practicality of converting from chlorine gas to sodium hypochlorite or another disinfectant.
Engineering studies are periodically required to address feasibility of implementing new programs or changing existing
ones. Health and safety concerns with chlorine gas, plus increasingly stringent regulatory requirements have brought on
the need to consider alternatives.

Preparer:
Allentown
2. Location:
3. Description:
This project involves affixing manhole frame and covers to approximately 80 aged brick manholes identified by previous City staff and current
LCA staff. Alternatives include installing aluminum straps and stainless steel bolts into existing concrete collars, replacing the existing frame
and cover with a watertight frame and cover, or pouring a five foot diameter concrete collar. This work will eliminate the potential for inflow
and infiltration (I/I) entering these manholes, thus eliminating the potential for sanitary sewer overflows (SSO’s) from these manholes.
This work is a component of the work that will be necessary to comply with the EPA Administrative Order.

WWTP Interim Blending Pumping System
AD-S-16
Preparer:
Allentown
2. Location:
3. Description:
This project provides for the installation of 4 diesel power pumps and associated pipeline to increase the hydraulic capacity
of Kline's Island WWTP (KIWWTP) during significant wet-weather events which result from the remnants of hurricane and
tropical storms. Once installed blending of wastewater that has received primary treatment with fully treated plant effluent
will be made possible reducing environmental concerns related to the current practice of discharging raw sewage to the
Little Lehigh Creek during these extreme wet-weather events. Note: This Project is contingent upon PADEP approval of
the NPDES Permit renewal that includes blending.
The peak hydraulic capacity of KIWWTP is currently limited to 86 millions gallons per day (mgd) by a number of hydraulic
bottlenecks located throughout the facility. When the hydraulic capacity of the facility is exceeded, untreated sewage and
storm water from inflow & Infiltration (I&I) is bypassed to the Little Lehigh Creek through Outfall 003 located at the plant
headworks. The proposed project represents a portion of the scope of work necessary to increase the peak flow capacity of
the facility to 95 mgd. The 4 pumps and connected pipeline will provide for the blending of 10 mgd of primary settling tank
effluent with the fully treated plant effluent in the chlorine contact tank and discharge of a portion of this blended flow to the
Lehigh River.

3. Description:
Many roof systems at the water plant, wastewater plant, distribution/collection building and water system remote stations are in
various stages of disrepair. The distribution/collection offices have had two major instances of interior mold within the past 3
years, resulting in unsafe work environments and costly remediation. Other locations have had instrumentation and other
damages as a result of leaking roofs. Project costs will be apportioned between the applicable water and wastewater funds as
appropriate. Additional Phase II projects are required in 2016 to address engineering reports that list other deficiencies.
49 different roof systems were evaluated in 2014. Many of them are the original slate roofs from as far back as 1916. In order to
keep safe and healthy work environments for all employees, not to mention keeping all operational equipment safe, dry and fullyfunctional, a remediation and/or replacement project is needed to protect the assets of both the City of Allentown and LCA. The
roof evaluations and condition assessments, performed by a consultant that specializes in roofs and buildings, has determined
