CIP

Capital Improvement Program

Rainbow Water's commitment to deliver safe and reliable water and wastewater collection services to the community is exemplified in the Capital Improvement Program. Projects to improve infrastructure, and limit the number of emergency water shutdowns are carefully planned by the Rainbow Water Engineering team and approved by the Board of Directors.

5-Year Capital Improvement Plan

The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) identifies facilities or programs, which are recommended for a variety of reasons, primarily to provide the District’s customers with a system that meets the District’s capacity criteria, is in good condition, and can be operated efficiently and reliably. Should demands and flows forecasted to develop during the planning horizon not materialize, there may be opportunities to defer or eliminate some projects. Contrarily, some projects are needed immediately. Each CIP undergoes an in-depth analysis, and Staff ranks the projects to determine which projects are the highest priority and thus are placed earlier in the five-year CIP Plan.

Each year the District updates the 5-Year CIP and publishees the plan in the Annual Non-Operating and Capital Improvement Budget report. Read the section highlighting the CIP 5-Year Plan for water and wastewater:
