Management
5. What is the long-term funding
strategy?
1. What is the current state of your assets?
2. What level of sustainable service is
required?
3. Which assets are critical to
sustainability?
4. What are the minimum life cycle
costs?

Management
5. What is the long-term funding
strategy?
1. What is the current state of your assets?
2. What level of sustainable service is
required?
3. Which assets are critical to
sustainability?
4. What are the minimum life cycle
costs?
1. Know what is owned,
where is it located, and
assess its condition
2. Understand water
main performance and
regulatory standards
3. Determine critical
assets and evaluate
their risk of failure
4. Know costs of
continual asset repairs
versus replacement
5. Evaluate capital
expense funds versus
current rate structures

Corrosion occurs where DC current
discharges from the metal to the electrolyte.
The objective is to allow your water main to
receive DC current (be cathodic) from an
expendable anode placed in the soil.

ARP installed on 82,370 feet of 6” to 16” water mains
Total ARP Installation Cost = $1,028,838
Main Break Cost (over 25 years) w/o ARP = $3,975,561
Cost of New Mains would have been >$10 Million
A 25-year service life extension is expected
An average reduction of 90% in water main breaks

Do I really want to
re-excavate this hole for
another water main break?
The Biggest Cost is for the Excavation & Restoration!
Install a sacrificial CP anode
while the water main repair
excavation is already open!

Less than $200!
Cathodic Protection Is Proactively Inexpensive
*For comparison, the average cost for each main break in Des Moines, IA was $5,372 in 2011
Consider the cost of repairing a water main break
versus the cost of
installing a sacrificial anode during the pipe repair…

DMWW – WTM Corrosion Control Criteria
The DMWW considers corrosion protection as
part of its design analysis for the following types
of pipe materials used for new water mains:
Prestressed Concrete Cylinder Pipe (AWWA
C304/C301)
Ductile Iron Pipe (AWWA C110)
Welded Steel Pipe (AWWA C200)

The CP system will extend the life of the new
water transmission main by at least 25 years at
a cost that is much less than…
Pipe repairs or,
Main replacement or,
The potentially more significant (but incalculable) indirect
costs that could occur as a result of a service disruption
to a key facility that the water main serves.

What is the additional
cost of installing
cathodic protection on
a new water
transmission main?
Economics of the CP Installation

49
In general, the total initial cost to install a CP system
should be less than 3-5% of the total construction cost
of the water main.
When expressed over the 25-year life expectancy of
the CP system, the annual cost is ≤0.20%.
Economics of the CP Installation
The effectiveness of any CP system is highly dependent upon the quality of
any coating and or wrapping system applied to the external pipe surface.
Higher quality pipe coatings will reduce the cost of the cathodic protection.
