Conveyance system improvement

The 2020 Decennial Flow Monitoring (DFM) project is currently underway. This project will collect accurate flow data over three wet seasons (2019 - 2022) for use in updating:

• Prioritization/timing of capital improvement projects for implementation
• Sizing of new conveyance wastewater facilities

Goals of this project include:

• Maintain existing sewer model basins and update these basins for growth and changes in local systems
• Install 132 meters to monitor:
  • new construction/development in our service area
  • high priority CSI needs
  • project areas in WTD capital improvement project (CIP) plan
• Leverage existing sewer model to assess meter locations

Summary: The 2017 CSI Program Update culminates in a prioritized list of projects to improve capacity in the separated portion of the regional wastewater treatment system. The prioritized list provides WTD direction on near term projects for implementation and long term program cost projections for financial planning. 

The CSI Program Update report presents the prioritized list of conveyance system projects. The report also contains a summary of the entire process that led to the prioritized list of projects. The report is available at the link above. 

Consistent with other CSI Program Update activities, the prioritized list of projects was shared with the MWPAAC Engineering and Planning Subcommittee and the local agencies that contract with WTD for wastewater treatment services for input.

The locations of these prioritized projects are displayed below.
