Huntington Beach, CA Selects Bentley WaterGEMS
 EXTON,
PA, Apr 9, 2008 – The city of Huntington Beach, Calif., recognized
internationally as “Surf City,” has selected Bentley’s award-winning
WaterGEMS as its new water distribution modeling and design software.
Huntington Beach’s water distribution system supplies potable water to more
than 195,000 permanent residents and millions of visitors who come every
summer to enjoy its famed beaches. Its location in drought-prone Southern
California makes efficient water management a critical issue. The city’s
reasons for choosing WaterGEMS include the software’s many powerful tools
and its ease of use.
As Duncan Lee, P.E., principal civil engineer for Huntington Beach, said,
“The simplified implementation of powerful modeling tools and the high level
of user friendliness built into WaterGEMS are impressive. They were the key
factors in our decision to switch software.”
Jack Cook, Bentley vice president, said, “Water is our most critical
resource in terms of sustainability, as California well knows. Bentley is
committed to providing tools for sustaining a community’s water
infrastructure, and our Haestad Methods solutions are a great example.
Huntington Beach joins other California communities, including San Jose
Water, Vallecitos Water District, and San Gabriel Valley Municipal Water
District, in using WaterGEMS V8 XM Edition.”
WaterGEMS is the only water distribution modeling software to offer
utilities the flexibility of using any of four interoperable platforms in a
single product. These modeling platforms include MicroStation, ArcGIS,
AutoCAD, and a standalone interface providing unprecedented ease of use,
speed, and flexibility. For more information about WaterGEMS, visit
