By Anonymous

Broomfield, CO August 29, 2004 -- MWH Soft, Inc., a leading global provider of water resources applications software, today announced that the Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department (WASD), one of the largest water and sewer utilities in the United States, has selected MWH Soft’s H2OMAP Water and H2OMAP Sewer advanced infrastructure analysis and optimization solutions for its enterprise-wide geospatial hydraulic modeling effort. The software will support WASD in managing, protecting, and maximizing performance of its $4 billion water and sewer utility system.

Nationally recognized for excellence, WASD is ranked as the sixth largest public utility in the United States, serving most of Miami-Dade’s 2.3 million residents on a retail or wholesale basis. Its principal responsibilities are water transmission, treatment, and distribution and sewer collection, treatment and disposal. The Department operates three regional water treatment plants and five smaller plants, with a total rated treatment capacity of 454 million gallons per day (MGD). The water supply for these plants comes from the Biscayne Aquifer through 88 water supply wells, located in 14 separate well fields. The water distribution system consists of 6,836 miles of pipes. The Department also operates three regional wastewater treatment plants with a total rated capacity of 352 MGD. The wastewater collection system consists of 971 sewer pump stations and 3,600 miles of pipes. WASD plans to leverage the powers of H2OMAP Water and Sewer software to support its professional staff in maximizing productivity, improving operational efficiency, increasing competitiveness, reducing risk, and providing the best possible services to its customers.

With direct support to geodatabases, H2OMAP Water and Sewer offer a single, comprehensive GIS-centric solution for managing the most complex water distribution and sewer collections systems. These innovative, easy to use geospatial solutions apply GIS intelligence to engineering-accurate information, coupled with the most advanced numerical computation, genetic algorithm optimization and object-component geospatial technologies in the marketplace. The resulting tools enable users to effortlessly read CAD and GIS datasets; correct network topology problems and data flaws; extract pertinent modeling information; and automatically construct credible network models with astounding speed. Once models have been established, users can easily run and simulate various conditions, pinpoint system deficiencies, and determine the most cost-effective physical and operational improvements to achieve optimum performance and regulatory compliance while improving community relations.

“MWH Soft’s impeccable customer satisfaction rate is due in part to our unique ability to address the entire spectrum of phases faced by both water and wastewater utilities and consulting engineering firms - from planning and analysis to design and optimization to operations and management,” said J.

Dreams about Water

By Stephanie Davies

Having water in your dreams is a very common occurrence. Whether you are dreaming of an ocean, a pond, or even a glass of water, it seems everyone dreams of water at some point in their lives. And in your dreams, water alludes to the most basic parts of ourselves - emotion. Water most always represents our waking emotion. Think about the dreams of water you have had...was the water crashing ocean waves? Then chances are your waking emotions were pretty rocky and heavy as well. Was the water dark, murky, and stagnant? Then you may well have been depressed or worried before you went to sleep.

The condition of, and placement of the water in your dream is the reflection of your waking mood. Cloudy swirling water may mean confusion, and clear crisp clean water may mean that you were very happy about something.

The only cases where water will not reflect upon the dreamers mood is when the water is part of a larger dream symbol, such as a hurricane, or a whirlpool. Dreaming of a hurricane may indicate a level or chaos in your life, or even on the more obvious level - that you are frightened of situations you cannot control. Dreaming of a whirlpool means that you are afraid that you will be overcome by a person or situation in your life.

Dreaming of fish in water however, is a different dream symbol. Dreaming of fish almost always represents money matters. So if you are dreaming of a tank or pond of bright healthy fish it may mean that you will be getting a large amount of money soon, or that financial matters are currently going very well for you. On the other hand, if the pond or tank water is dirty or mucky, and the fish are dead or dying, this means you are very afraid of your money situation.

Water, much like the emotion it represents, can be an ever changing element, and while the dream may indicate those things which are at the top of your subconscious, you may not immediately realize what the dream represents. Keep an eye out for your emotions, and what that particular dream may have meant to you!
