Predictive Modeling and User Rates – Goshen’s Lead Service Line Inventory and Replacement Plan By Boston Snyder

Goshen will be completing predictive modeling between now and October 2024, to complete our service line inventory. This is being performed in conjunction with an application for State Revolving Funds to complete service line inspections. These inspections will allow us to both reach a 95% confidence in our model and satisfy EPA validation pool requirements under the proposed LCRI.  Goshen has also applied for service line replacement State Revolving Funds where analysis was performed to determine a project scope, projected to begin in November 2024, which maximizes service line replacements, replaces aging utility infrastructure, and does not affect user rates.
