NORTHEAST OHIO'S INFRASTRUCTURE REPORT CARD

The 2019 Northeast Ohio infrastructure report card evaluated our region's bridges, dams, drinking water, energy, roads, schools, and wastewater systems' infrastructure. Two of these infrastructure categories are in mediocre condition and five are in poor condition and already at risk. It is possible, however, to raise the grades of all categories ? we make some suggestions to reach that goal.

BRIDGES

Northeast Ohio is home to 3,069 bridges, of which 46.3% are rated in good condition, 39.3% are in satisfactory or fair condition, and 9.7% are in poor condition. A poor condition rating means the bridge is structurally deficient and requires significant rehabilitation or replacement. In 2018-2019, the Ohio legislature paved the way for limited additional funding for the state's transportation network by allowing counties the opportunity to increase vehicle registration revenues, imposing an additional $5 permissive fee. Proceeds must be used for planning, constructing, improving, maintaining, and repairing public roads and bridges. Cuyahoga County and Lake County have recently passed additional permissive vehicle registration fees. The counties of Lorain, Medina, and Geauga currently are also collecting permissive fees for road and bridge repairs. Overall, however, Northeast Ohio faces a funding shortfall issue, particularly to address its future needs. Infrastructure funding challenges continue to limit the number of bridges which can be repaired or replaced.

DAMS

Dams support Northeast Ohio's recreation, irrigation, flood control, and drinking water needs. There are 618 dams in the NOACA region out of 5,737 statewide. Most of these structures are constructed of earth and/or concrete. Almost 90% of the dams in Northeast Ohio are privately owned, while just 74 out of the 618 are public and managed by municipalities, counties, or government agencies. Our region's dams are aging. Approximately 70% of the 618 dams in the NOACA region are over 50 years old, meaning they've reached their design life. It is estimated that the repair cost for Ohio's state-owned deficient dams is nearly $300 million and that over $1.12 billon is needed to repair all non-Federal deficient dams in the State of Ohio alone. The NOACA Region has approximately 11% of the dams in the state's inventory and would accordingly need approximately $100 million to repair all non-Federal deficient dams in the NOACA Region alone. The Ohio Water Development Authority has two low interest loan programs for the repair or removal of existing dams but the lack of adequate funding for dam owners to conduct needed repairs continues to be a challenge.

DRINKING WATER

Lake Erie serves as the main source of drinking water for most of the five counties covered by this Report Card. The quality of drinking water in the region is high, keeping par with the standard across the U.S. The Cleveland Water Department (CWD) is the largest drinking water utility in the region, serving 70% of the Northeast Ohio. Over the last 30 years, CWD has spent more than $1.6 billion on infrastructure updates. Most recently, it completed all major treatment facility and primary pump station renewals and considers these facilities in excellent condition. In 2013, the completion of this $650 million Plant Enhancement Program enabled the agency to shift the focus of their Capital Improvement Program to the 5,200 miles of water mains in the Cleveland Water system. As of 2016, 74% of CWD's distribution pipes are in good or excellent condition. However, significant challenges across the five counties remain. For example, Lake County estimates that, on average, it can fix five to six miles of pipes per year, as compared to the eight to nine miles of pipe needing attention annually. Lead service lines are still in place in certain areas. Additionally, modest population decreases and a decline in consumption is contributing to less revenue available to reinvest in the system.

ENERGY

One third of energy consumed in Northeast Ohio is generated outside the region, and the region's aging distribution networks, built in times of population expansion prior to the 1960s, require continuous care and improvement. Upgraded and/or new transmission lines are needed to bring replacement power into the constrained region as energy demands continue to increase. At present, the only investments in electric transmission lines in Northeast Ohio are for routine maintenance, and ongoing natural gas pipe replacement plans are not intended to increase capacity. The permitting and siting of new transmission lines, both for electricity and oil & gas, is a lengthy process that encounters significant public opposition and regulatory hurdles. While NEO energy companies are reliable caretakers of the existing system, the uncertain regulatory climate discourages long-term investment decisions and the aging energy infrastructure remains vulnerable and stretched thin. Investments are lacking in redundancy, and to prepare the network for the future while protecting it from major natural or human disasters. Energy infrastructure in Northeast Ohio is at risk.

NORTHEASTOHIO

ROADS

The State of Ohio has the nation's fourth largest interstate system. Approximately 15% of roadways on the state system lie within Northeast Ohio, for a total of nearly 8,000 miles of roads, ranging in size from multi-lane interstates to local streets. Congestion is significant on the I-90 Innerbelt Expressway through downtown Cleveland and various segments of Interstate 480. Data shows that in 2017, there were 49,973 traffic accidents in the 5-county region, including 166 fatalities. Meanwhile, the condition of roadways is mixed. Many major roadways in Northeast Ohio have good pavement conditions, but Pavement Condition Ratings (PCR) are lower for county maintained and municipal roadways. For example, 52% of Cuyahoga County roadways are rated below the PCR goal of 80 (out of 100), and 40% the City of Cleveland system is below the PCR goal of 75. Transportation agencies such as the Ohio State Department of Transportation and the City of Cleveland are now prioritizing preservation projects utilizing sophisticated asset management systems. Ohio's legislature recently voted to allow counties to increase vehicle registration revenues by imposing an additional $5 permissive fee.

SCHOOLS

Northeast Ohio is home to 67 school districts and approximately 250,000 students. A recent survey by the Cleveland Section of ASCE indicates 52% of schools in the region have not undergone significant renovations over the past 40 years, and only 57% of school districts have buildings that meet current state and/or federal standards. Funding from the Ohio Facilities Construction Commission (OFCC) is offered to schools based on an eligibility ranking system; those schools with the highest eligibility are ranked as #1. Within the NOACA region, school district eligibility rankings range from #1 to #606 out of 607 school districts statewide, with an average ranking of 447. OFCC's available funding spiked in 2008 from a tobacco settlement, resulting in four years of over $800 million available per year to K-12 schools, but over the past five years construction disbursements have dropped to an average of approximately $275 million per year. Resiliency is another concern: 91%, of school buildings are designated to serve as emergency shelters, but only 27% of school buildings have backup power systems, only 57% comply with state and/or federal health and safety codes and only 36% are constructed to withstand a natural disaster of the type common to northern Ohio.

WASTE WATER

There are over 5,000 miles of underground pipes in Northeast Ohio connecting homes and businesses to 45 publicly-owned wastewater treatment plants. On a dry day, capacity in the system is double the average daily volume generated. However, the region is home to 860 communities with combined sewer systems (CSS), or sewers designed to collect rainwater runoff and sewage in the same pipe. The size and capacity of CSS are the limiting factor during rainfall events, and when the stormwater combines with the wastewater in the sewers, there simply is not enough capacity and the system must relieve itself, either through discharges into receiving waters or basement flooding. The Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District has identified over $3 billion of capital improvements needed to mitigate the combined sewer overflow issues in the region, plus another $3 billion to address "non-CSO" (combined sewer overflow) contributing water quality issues, including basement flooding, failing septic systems and illicit sanitary discharges into the environment. In general, much of the wastewater infrastructure in the region is aging, and approximately 25% of the sewer pipes in NE Ohio are over 80 years old.
