In
response to guidelines from U.S. EPA, the City of Huntsville,
Alabama, Water Pollution Control Department’s ongoing
CMOM (Capacity, Management, Operations & Maintenance)
Program was evaluated based on 14 discrete micro-basins.
Flow monitoring information was used to target field investigations
designed to locate and characterize significant I/I related
defects within the flow monitoring basins. A Temporary Flow
Monitoring Scheme identified locations for temporary meters.
The target basins for temporary metering were developed using
data gathered under the ongoing CMOM program. The target basins
were discrete, independent basins to the extent allowed by the
system’s configuration and contained no less than 10,000
linear feet of collector sewer (diameter < 15-inch). The information
obtained during the field investigations were ultimately used
to develop a rehabilitation plan. |
