The Arvin-Edison Water Storage District manages a large-scale conjunctive water use program in California, storing surface water underground during wet years for use in dry periods. The district implemented ICONICS GENESIS32 HMI/SCADA software to monitor water levels, control pump motors, and manage slide gates across 46 pumping plants and 10 indicator sites. The system replaced an older platform that had 8-15 second update delays, delivering near real-time data and remote emergency control capabilities integrated with existing PLCs and field devices.

Key takeaways

GENESIS32 replaced legacy SCADA with near real-time updates versus prior 8-15 second delays

System monitors 56 sites including 46 pumping plants serving 132,000 agricultural acres

Integration with Westinghouse PC1100/1200, SCADAPacks, Lundahl level indicators, and GE power monitors

Enables remote pump on/off control and canal slide gate regulation from headquarters

Planned expansions include check gate automation and VFD integration
