This powerpoint presentation presents WRF Project #4109, "Criteria for Optimized Distribution Systems". The objective and the challenge of the project was to develop widely useful, easily measurable criteria. The project approach included: a literature review; a utility survey; expert workgroups; draft optimization criteria; beta testing; expert workshop; and, software development. Distribution system optimization focused on three areas: water quality integrity - disinfectant residuals; hydraulic integrity - pressure management; and, physical integrity - main breaks. Most of the other 22 categories considered were influenced by these three areas. Beta testing will focus on feasibility, practicality, and usefulness of the self-assessment process. The May 2009 Workshop reviewed input and finalized protocols, and software is being developed for data input and analysis. Includes tables, figures.
