37. City Of Henderson, NV Tackles Predicted Water Demand Increase Through Master Plan Optimization Saving $120M Over Traditional Design

    The City of Henderson engaged Stantec and Optimatics to develop a new master plan for their water distribution system, in preparation for the expected population growth and demand increase in the coming years. This optimization effort aimed to determine the lowest cost master plan strategy that satisfied the City’s hydraulic design standards, based on forecast 2050 demands Prior to optimization, the City and Stantec had identified a range of possible project sites, so the optimization was largely focused on determining which of these projects to complete, as well as how to size them.
