RCAP Webinar | Hydrant Assessments for Asset Management (1 Hour Webinar)

Hydrants are an important feature of water system asset management plans and GIS mapping data. How do you assess their condition and age? This webinar will be taught from the experience of completing many drinking water asset management projects and working with firefighters. The learning objectives will be to determine a hydrant’s age if the date stamp is hidden or does not exist. This webinar will cover the various popular styles of hydrants by decade and manufacturer and will discuss how assets such as the mains and valves may help solve any unknown hydrant age mysteries. Other learning objectives will be how to assess the condition of a hydrant from a visual inspection. We will go over logging data such as physical accessibility to the hydrant and knowing the parts of a hydrant for any conditional issues. This webinar is funded under RCAP’s Environmental Finance Center (EFC) grant.

Our presenter is Danielle Desmarais, Community Specialist, Community and Environmental Resources, RCAP Solutions.
