The City of Covina 2019 Sanitary Sewer Condition Assessment and Appendix - J Capital Improvement Plan
1 Study Approach, Criteria, and Assumptions
1.1 Condition Assessment Approach
The 2019 Sanitary Sewer Condition Assessment Report investigates the structural and operational condition of the City’s sewers and recommends repair and replacement strategies intended to improve high risk defects. The approach used to develop and prioritize high risk defects is driven by the City’s commitment to manage their sewer system, prevent sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs), reduce concentrated leaks to the surrounding soil, identify and eliminate inflow and infiltration (I/I), and comply with regulatory and permitting requirements. This is achieved through the routine cleaning, inspection, maintenance, and repair of the City’s highest risk sewers with long term solutions. The risk factors used in this study to accomplish these goals are based on engineering judgement and the guidelines and methodologies of NASSCO PACP and the US EPA’s CMOM.
1.2 Risk Factors
During the development of the summary reports described above, each repair project was assigned a Risk Level of High, Medium, or Low. The criteria used to determine the approximate risk level was based on the engineer’s opinion of how likely the sewer was to fail in the foreseeable future, the likeliness that a failure would cause an SSO, and how difficult it would be for the City to perform any necessary repairs in an emergency.
High – High Risk sewers included those that appeared very likely to fail and/or cause an SSO in the immediate future. High Risk factors included repairs that would be difficult to access or perform in an emergency, sewers in busy roadways, large diameter sewers, sewers with heavy flow, sewers that are known to be very deep, sewers that had collapsed or were at immediate risk of collapse, sewers with breaks, holes, and cracks with evidence of exfiltration, and sewers that appeared to be deteriorated beyond their useful life.
Medium - Medium Risk sewers included those that were less likely to fail or did not appear to need repairs in the immediate future, but had severe defects that were likely to get worse if they were not repaired within a reasonable time frame. These factors included sewers that may have triggered high defect scores (like breaks, holes, large separations, deformations, etc.), but appeared to be stable, accessible during emergency repairs, did not show evidence of subsiding soil or deep voids, and appeared to be above the ordinary flow line.
Low – Low risk sewers included those that appeared relatively stable but required repair(s) or replacement to prevent further deterioration to a higher-level risk in the foreseeable future.
High Risk Grade 5 defects were considered to have failed or were in immediate risk of failure and were recommended for repair or replacement as quickly as possible (i.e. Year 1). Medium and Low Risk Grade 5 defects were recommended for repair and replacement along with High and Medium Risk Grade 4 defects, but after High Risk Grade 5 defects (i.e. Years 2 and 3). All Grade 3 defects and Low Risk Grade 4 defects were recommended for repair or replacement after other higher risk repairs. However, it is recommended that these defects be cleaned and re-inspected at an interval not to exceed 10-years.
The City of Covina 2019 Sanitary Sewer Condition Assessment and Appendix - J Capital Improvement Plan
Although the engineering analysis does not include a condition assessment of manholes (MACP), if a defect in the manhole was observed during the review of the CCTV videos, its respective recommended repair was included along with any sewer repairs observed during that inspection.
1.3 Findings
Defects
Tables will summarize the structural and maintenance condition of each sewer based on NASSCO PACP methodologies followed by a detailed engineering analysis. Most of the system was noted to be in good to fair structural condition. Of the remaining system, the most common high-risk structural defects were those associated with:
• Breaks and holes
• Repeating cracks and fractures, especially along the hinges • Construction defects – especially sags and large offset joints Similarly, the most common high-risk defects were those associated with:
• Roots (which lead to structural damage)
• The buildup of grease, calcium, gravel, and other settled and encrusted debris After reviewing the CCTV inspection videos and reports, a draft list of projects was developed to address the City’s highest risk structural and maintenance defects. These projects were exported to the Summary Reports in Appendix B and linked to an ArcMap GIS shapefile, then delivered to the City on external hard drive. The summary reports include a description of the defects, photographs of the defects, the location that it occurs along the sewer, an aerial image showing potential construction challenges, and recommended repair and replacement strategies.
1.4 CCTV Study and Approach
Empire’s field crews conducted a detailed CCTV inspection of the City’s sewers using POSM application software to grade their findings according to NASSCO PACP standards1. The two major categories included in this pipeline assessment were structural and maintenance (operational) defects. Defects in the structural group were comprised of damages and failures to the physical features of the asset, including, but not limited to cracks, fractures, breaks, corrosion, and holes. Operation and Maintenance defects were those related to capacity and function of the asset, including corrosion, accessibility and flow constraints (i.e. bends, reducers, protruding objects) and the buildup of settled or deposited debris, including roots, dirt, construction materials, and other foreign objects. These defects were assigned a severity grade by Empire’s certified inspectors based on NASSCO PACP standards as summarized in Table 4-1 below.
1 NASSCO PACP is a condition assessment methodology that standardizes the approach for grading defects and noting construction features in sanitary sewer and storm drain pipes.
The City of Covina 2019 Sanitary Sewer Condition Assessment and Appendix - J Capital Improvement Plan

Grade 2
Good; defects have not begun to fail
and are unlikely to fail within 20-
years
Grade 1
Excellent; minor defect that are
unlikely to fail in the foreseeable
future
Grade 0 No notable defects
Wherever sewers contained defects (i.e. holes, heavy debris, collapse, severe distortion, intruding laterals, severe sags, obstacles, etc.) that caused the premature termination of the CCTV inspection, the defect was noted, the survey was stopped, and a reverse run was attempted. Wherever reverse runs were not possible, the defect was noted and the session was terminated. The PACP grades were then used to prepare the appropriate sections of the condition assessment report. The final reports, videos, photographs, and tables were then saved to an external hard drive along with electronic copies of the final engineering report, linked to the City’s GIS, and submitted in both paper and digital format.

1 SPILL EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN
(SERP)
INTRODUCTION
City of Covina provides wastewater disposal needs of approximately 48,728 people within the eastern San Gabriel Valley area of Los Angeles County per the 2023 United States Census. The community sewers receive and convey approximately 10.3 mgd (million gallons per day) of wastewater. This waste flow goes to the regional trunk sewers and wastewater treatment plant.
The City service area covers 7.0 square miles and its wastewater collection system consists of 121 miles of community sewer facilities, with 14.3 miles of regional trunk sewers (owned and operated by CSD of Los Angeles County) also located within the City area.
The primary goal of the City’s sewer maintenance program has been and remains the protection of public health, safety and the environment. As a matter of State and Federal regulations, spills are prohibited, and moreover, are inconsistent with the City’s goal of providing the highest level of sewer service to the public. The City places high priority on capacity assurance, repair and replacement, and proper operation and maintenance of its sewerage system. While the City desires to completely eliminate spills, it is also understood that manmade systems do fail.
Regardless of the level of scrutiny and control provided, spills will, on occasion, occur.
Therefore, when a spill event does occur, this response plan encompasses measures necessary to minimize public health and environmental impacts. To accomplish this, the City operates a two-pronged response to spills that directs efforts to stop the spill simultaneously with efforts to contain and then recover the wastewater discharged. Quick response to emergency situations can prevent spills from reaching the water of the United States.
The City is responsible for response to, and reporting of, all spills caused by problems within the City’s sanitary sewer system. Under certain emergency circumstances, the City may also provide assistance to the CSD and sewering entities within the surrounding area during an overflow response situation.
SPILL RESPONSE GOALS
1. The City’s goals and actions regarding spill response are stated in Chapter 1 of the SSMP.
NOTIFICATION, INVESTIGATION AND MOBILIZATION
1. The City’s chain of communication and reporting are stated in Chapter 2 of the SSMP.
Appendix ‘K’
2 2. The following occurs upon receiving notification of a spill:
• The notification is logged on a form (See Attachment K-1) and assigned for follow- up actions.
• Dispatch of Personnel to Investigate - For spills reported during the workday, a supervisor or other trained representative is immediately dispatched to investigate; during non-working hours, an on-duty employee or supervisor is dispatched. • Dispatch of Staff and Equipment - When the initial investigation report indicates that a spill has occurred from the City’s sewer system, both equipment and personnel are mobilized and dispatched immediately to the spill site. During non- workday hours, staff members are contacted and directed to report to their mobilization site for instructions.
• Notification for Outside Support – When the initial investigation determines that additional ‘Outside Support’ resources will be necessary to accomplish the containment and clean-up, the DPW is notified and informed of the situation and the perceived needs.
• Notification of Sewer Agencies - When the initial investigation indicates that a spill has occurred from another agency’s sewer or may have resulted from blockage in another agency’s sewer, the potentially responsible agency is immediately notified. If the additional on-site investigation indicates that the spill is the responsibility of the other agency, then the response efforts are turned over to that agency, with assistance from the City, if necessary and requested. Regardless of cause, once the spill response has occurred, the primary objective is to minimize the risk to human health and to the environment (i.e Waters of the United States).
• Notification of Management Personnel - Appropriate management personnel are notified (if they have not already been notified) and any personnel necessary for office support of the field response are mobilized.
RESPONSE
The spill response is directed in the field by supervisors and/or managers who are trained and experienced in responding to spills, with additional operations, maintenance, engineering and agency support staff available as needed for public notification, protection, resource supply, expense authorization and tracking, and coordination of available support resources.
The individual steps involved in responding to a spill event include:
1. Corrective Action and Site Control

3. Cleanup
4. Sampling
5. Notification and Reporting
6. Post-Cleanup Activities
1. Corrective Action and Site Control
Upon arriving at the spill location, concurrent actions taken by the various crews are:
• Prevent Public Access - Access to the immediate area of the spill is restricted to minimize potential impacts to public health by redirecting pedestrian and automobile traffic away from the spill through the use of traffic cones, plastic tape, barricades, and/or local law enforcement.
The extent of the spill and its potential impacts to the public health are assessed by City personnel. This process involves determining if any private property owners/residents may be exposed to raw sewage, making direct contact with those parties who have been or may be directly affected by the spill, advising those individuals of the potential health hazards associated with contact with raw sewage, and identifying prudent measures to be taken by private property owners/residents, such as vacating the property/area, to prevent contact with the spill.
Simultaneous efforts include determining the path and final destination of the sewage spill and potential exposure to the public. If wastewater from the spill is ponding in a location that can be isolated, then set up barricades to prevent public access. Traffic control is set up to prevent vehicles from entering locations where the spill has contaminated public or private travel ways. City personnel are instructed to direct pedestrians and automobile traffic away from the spill path and final destination of the spill. All involved persons must cooperate with local law enforcement and public works officials to ensure that public exposure to the spill is minimized and to ensure spill site security.
• Prevent Wastewater Entry to Storm Drain System - When possible, contain and recover the spill in the immediate vicinity of the spill before it enters a storm drain catch basin.
Measures to effect such containment include damming the spill path with sandbags in the street gutter and recovering the impounded water with a vacuum truck or jet vactor, or using sandbags to divert the spill back into a nearby sewer manhole. • Stop Spill - The cause of the spill is identified and necessary corrective action is taken to stop the spill and/or correct the condition that caused the spill if the spill has already stopped.
Typical corrective actions to stop a spill include:
Appendix ‘K’
4 o clearing a pipe blockage with a jet vactor or rodding machine, o removing debris from a manhole,
o upstream flow diversion,
o bypass of wastewater around the blockage using vacuum trucks or pumps o bypass and repair of a damaged force main.
Bypass pumping is typically accomplished by the use of portable pumps and hoses to convey flow around the blocked or damaged sewer, the inoperative pumping plant or the damaged force main. The SO&M team maintains an Spill Response Trailer, which is equipped with portable pumps and hoses of various sizes (designed to bypass flows of up to 450 gallons per minute), sandbags, fittings, and tools to facilitate pumped bypass.
When possible, diversions are used to redirect a portion or all of the wastewater around the affected area in the system. Maintaining accurate and complete sewerage system maps is essential to expeditiously accomplish wastewater diversion during an emergency response.
• Pumping Plants - Emergency Procedure Operating Manuals for pumping plants (Lift Stations) are available in the DPW as references for operations, maintenance, engineering, supervisory, and management staff. The manuals provide comprehensive information on the proper response to all types of pumping plant failures, potential overflows and force main leaks and failures. Available information includes proper response to power failure, high wet well level, telemetry system failure, control system failure, procedures to bypass the plant, and emergency overflow information including low manhole location, storage time in the tributary sewer system, containment location and estimated travel time to the containment location.
2. Containment and Recovery
Containment and recovery of a spill should occur as close as possible to the site of the spill, preferably in the street curb and gutter, to minimize the length of the storm drain system affected by the wastewater.When a storm drain system is nearby, the spill may enterthe storm drain system prior to arrival of the first responding personnel. In these cases, engineering, supervisory and/or management staff identify the most practical containment location in the storm drain system downstream of the spill. In selecting the best containment location, staff must consider many factors, including:
• time the spill started,
• spill route through the storm drain system,
• time needed to install a containment dam,
• travel time for the spill to reach the containment location, • safe access to the containment location for personnel and equipment, and • availability of a nearby sewer with sufficient capacity into which recovered wastewater can be returned.
Access and safety considerations generally require establishment of containment in open storm drain channels. Containment in buried storm drains pipes upstream of any open
Appendix ‘K’
5 channels is preferable when possible. However, the physical difficulty of deploying personnel and materials through a manhole into a buried storm drain pipe to construct a containment dam, the dimensions of the storm drain itself, and/or the safety procedures and authorization needed to enter confined space generally preclude rapid and practical establishment of containment within a buried storm drain pipe. City staff can usually and safely enter the storm drain system to establish containment during dry weather conditions only. A containment location close to the spill location is only possible when a containment dam can be deployed very quickly after the start of an spill.
Once a suitable containment location is identified, the crew responsible for containment:
• deploys a sandbag containment dam or otherwise prevents the movement of the spill and contaminated street runoff further downstream in the storm drain system, and
• deploys the vacuum trucks or portable pumps and piping necessary to return the contained wastewater, dry weather runoff, and clean up water back to the sewer system.
3. Cleanup
After the spill has been stopped, the following steps are taken:
• Recover Locally Impounded Wastewater - All locally impounded wastewater is recovered with a vacuum truck or jet vactor and returned to the sewer system • Collect Wastewater Debris - All visible debris of wastewater origin from the spill
location(s), street(s), curb and gutters, and the spill runoff path is physically removed.
• Flush Affected Area - Spill location(s), street(s), curb and gutters, and the runoff path are flushed with lightly chlorinated potable water, typically delivered by a vacuum truck or water truck. The flush water is also recovered and returned to the sewer system.
• Flush Storm Drain and Conduct Dye Study - Additional potable water is used to flush the spill runoff path within the storm drain system. When appropriate, this flush water is marked with a nontoxic, visible dye. Arrival of the dye at the containment location establishes the actual travel time to the containment location. Recovery of the dye confirms completion of spilled wastewater and flush water recovery. • Complete Cleanup - All sandbags and other containment are removed to complete the cleanup in the storm drain system. If spilled wastewater reaches natural watercourses or other areas accessible to the public, input is solicited from the responsible jurisdiction regarding additional measures which may be necessary or appropriate for a complete cleanup. Additional cleanup measures are completed as directed.
Appendix ‘K’
6 Private properties impacted by spills or backups from problems within the City’s sewer system should be cleaned up by a professional restoration company dispatched by the City.
The City may offer residents meals, lodging, and reasonable expenses when they are temporarily displaced by private property restoration operations. Claims for property damage are handled by the City’s Claims and Insurance Coordinator.
4. Receiving Water Sampling
Bacterial test samples of spills should be collected by the first responder, whenever possible.
If it is probable that a spill may reach receiving waters, samples should also be taken of the receiving waters to evaluate the potential impact on the receiving water quality. Samples should be drawn from the location(s) most likely to be impacted by the spill and also from a receiving waters location or locations that can be used to establish background water quality. Advance coordination with a certified laboratory for pre- arrangement of sampling supplies, notification protocol for urgent services, and training as may be required, will facilitate emergency sample delivery so that bacterial testing can begin immediately when needed. Delivered samples are analyzed for total coliform, fecal coliform, and enterococcus and other constituents that may be appropriate based on the nature of the receiving water and the spilled wastewater. Because it takes approximately 24 hours for the bacterial analyses, a second round of sampling is conducted within 24 hours of the first unless full containment and recovery of the spill can be confirmed. If sample results indicate elevated bacterial levels in receiving waters, sampling is continued until results indicate a return to background levels.
5. Notification and Reporting
Sewering entities are required to report to various regulatory agencies, including the appropriate Regional Water Quality Control Board, the County Department of Health Services, and the State Office of Emergency Services. The spill categories are described below:
Category 1 – A Category 1 spill is a spill of any volume of sewage from or caused by a sanitary sewer system regulated under this General Order that results in a discharge to:
• A surface water, including a surface water body that contains no flow or volume of water; or
• A drainage conveyance system that discharges to surface waters when the sewage is not fully captured and returned to the sanitary sewer system or disposed of properly.
Any spill volume not recovered from a drainage conveyance system is considered a discharge to surface water, unless the drainage conveyance system discharges to a dedicated stormwater infiltration basin or facility. A spill from an Enrollee - owned and/or operated lateral that discharges to a surface water is a Category 1 spill; the Enrollee shall report all Category 1 spills per section 3.1 of Attachment E1 (Notification, Monitoring, Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements) of the General Order.
Appendix ‘K’
7 Category 2 – A Category 2 spill is a spill of 1,000 gallons or greater, from or caused by a sanitary sewer system regulated under this General Order that does not discharge to a surface water. A spill of 1,000 gallons or greater that spills out of a lateral and is caused by a failure or blockage in the sanitary sewer system, is a Category 2 spill.
Category 3 – A Category 3 spill is a spill of equal to or greater than 50 gallons and less than 1,000 gallons, from or caused by a sanitary sewer system regulated under this General Order that does not discharge to a surface water.
A spill of equal to or greater than 50 gallons and less than 1,000 gallons, that spills out of a lateral and is caused by a failure or blockage in the sanitary sewer system is a Category 3 spill.
Category 4 – A Category 4 spill is a spill of less than 50 gallons, from or caused by a sanitary sewer system regulated under this General Order that does not discharge to a surface water.
A spill of less than 50 gallons that spills out of a lateral and is caused by a failure or blockage in the sanitary sewer system is a Category 4 spill.
Appendix ‘K’
8 Section 4 of the SSMP contains a flow chart which is used to determine the notification and reporting procedures that apply to a given spill incident. The SSMP also contains all of the appropriate contacts for reporting. A City’s manager, typically the Sewerage System Manager, makes the notifications. When required, telephone notification should be made as soon as possible without substantially impeding response activities and always within 24 hours of the incident occurrence. The following information shall be provided, if available, when reporting a spill by telephone:
• name of person reporting,
• name of agency,
• location of spill,
whether the spill has entered or will enter receiving waters (rivers, lakes, stormdrains, or ocean) of the State or the United States,
• date and time spill began and ended,
• estimated volume of spill,
• cause of spill,
• corrective actions taken,
• estimated time of repair, and
• agencies involved in repair and clean-up.
All spill, regardless of quantity, which reach receiving waters, impact groundwater, or endanger public health or the environment require immediate telephone notification of the County Department of Health Services, which is responsible for beach postings and closures and other forms of public notification deemed necessary to protect the public health.
Written notification of the spill, when required, must be submitted within the required time period to the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), typically within 30- days of an spill and within 3 days if the incident has or may endangered public health or the environment. Written reports should be submitted to the local RWQCB for spills occurring within their jurisdiction. To satisfy this requirement, the City may chose to submit a brief written confirmation of the reported spill to the appropriate RWQCB within the time frame required. A follow-up, detailed written report, pursuant to the guideline as contained in Attachment K-2, will meet the statutory provisions of the State Water Code. This detailed report usually requires three to four weeks to complete. Copies of the detailed report is sent to those agencies which were initially noticed, unless otherwise notified.
6. Post-Cleanup Activities
Once cleanup of an spill is complete, the incident must be reviewed and any appropriate measures to prevent recurrence must be implemented. Follow-up CCTV inspection is performed when a spill was caused by a blockage to verify complete removal of the material causing the blockage. If the spill was avoidable by preventative maintenance, then maintenance activities are added or adjusted as necessary. An example is to increase the frequency of line cleaning where heavy grease build-up has caused a spill to occur, while source control efforts are reviewed. If the spill was caused by factors generally outside the City’s control, such as vandalism, steps are still taken to minimize recurrence such as strengthening security by locking down manhole covers, increasing area surveillance, and
Appendix ‘K’
9 requesting neighborhood assistance in reporting vandalism and unauthorized dumping.
Regardless of the size or type of spill, all spills are investigated thoroughly. Following the investigation, the information as noted on Attachment K-2 is documented and included as part of the City’s internal spill records.
Policies and procedures are upgraded as appropriate to prevent recurrence of accidentalspills due to procedural errors by City’s staff and contractors. As part of their training, all involved employee’s must thoroughly familiarize themselves with these emergency procedures.
City’s personnel administering contractsewer repair, rehabilitation and replacement projects must rigidly enforce contract provisions. Especially important is enforcing contractors' approved Emergency Spill Response Plan requirements (see Attachment K-3 for guidelines) intended to prevent and limit the impact of accidental spills.
An approved Overflow Action Plan, which is activated if an overflow from a contract activity enters a storm drain, should be incorporated into the contract documents of all sewer repair, rehabilitation, or replacement contracts involving sewage bypass operations. When successful execution of an Overflow Action Plan requires pre-deployment of containment or pumping equipment, City’s personnel administering the contract must ensure the necessary pre-deployment measures are taken. Guidelines for the preparation of an Emergency Spill Response Plan and an Overflow Response Plan are included as Attachment K-3.
Appendix ‘K’
10 EMERGENCY RESPONSE PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT
Personnel
The City has the necessary personnel to respond to almost any local emergency, including power failure, mechanical and electrical equipment breakdown, sewer blockage, pipe failure, and vandalism. The urgency and seriousness of any spill results in the full commitment and availability of all staff in the PWD to respond. Additional City’s personnel are utilized for specialized assistance as needed. Contractors with emergency response capabilities are also used to assist in emergencies as needed.
An emergency contact list is maintained which includes the home phone number of all employees in the PWD. All supervisors and managers in the PWD are assigned cell phones and/or pagers and are accessible 24-hours a day. A table of organization for the spill responses and each supporting unit or group are included in Chapter 2 of the SSMP.
A list of pre-qualified emergency response contractors is maintained. Contractors can be retained to perform emergency repair work on a time and materials basis under the emergency authority granted by the CMC Section 2.20.080, entitled “Bidding-RequiredExceptions”, and Section 2.40.060, entitled “Emergency services director and assistant director-Powers and duties”. This emergency authority is granted for each qualifying incident and is described in the CMC.
Emergency Equipment
• In addition to the normal compliment of equipment utilized by the PWD for maintenance and repair of the sewerage system, specific items are maintained for use during emergency conditions. Such equipment includes:
• jet vactor and rodding machines to clear pipe blockages • portable engine driven electrical generators for use at pumping plants during power outages
• vacuum tankers to transport flow around blockages or to remove wastewater from a containment location in a street or storm drain
• submersible pumps for use as emergency pumps to bypass wastewater around a pipe blockage or a malfunctioning pumping plant
• pre-filled sand bags, flat bed and crane trucks for use in establishing containment dams
• front loaders for emergency earth moving operations
• portable engine driven centrifugal pumps (trash pumps) to bypass wastewater around pipe blockages and remove wastewater from storm drain channel containment locations
• hoses and lightweight quick-coupling piping in various sizes for use in bypass pumping
• pipe repair clamps, inflatable sewer plugs, and other miscellaneous pipe repair
Appendix ‘K’
11 parts
• water trucks and bottled chlorine solution for use in clean up operations • portable lights, air compressors, centrifugal blowers, and other miscellaneous equipment
• Protective clothing and supplies for safe use by personnel A current listing of emergency equipment available from the Sewerage System maintenance yards is included as Appendix E.
TRAINING
Training of City personnel in the goals and procedures of this SERP is accomplished in annual emergency response classroom training. A checklist used by staff to check off and record information regarding the various procedures completed during a spill response is utilized during the training process. The checklist is included as Attachment K-11. Secondly, on-the-job training is administered to subordinate staff, by experienced supervisors and lead workers, during and following actual spill events to further reinforce the annual training and to analyze event specific issues.

Executive Summary
The purpose of this report is to determine the deficiencies in the existing mainline sewer system within the City of Covina, recommend alternatives to eliminate the deficiencies, prioritize the deficient reaches, and provide the City with a basis on which to build a future infrastructure management system.
The City of Covina encompasses a total area of 7 square miles and is essentially developed.
It consists of a community of approximately 48,000 residents that contains a mixed development of residential, commercial, and industrial areas. The City owns the local sewer system consisting of approximately 120 miles of gravity flow sewer pipelines that is maintained by the City. The City’s sewer system is connected at various locations to trunk sewers and pipelines owned, operated, and maintained by the County of Los Angeles Sanitation District.
The City’s sewer system was modeled using InfoSewer 7.6 by Innovyze. Of the 120 miles, approximately 1.46 miles or 1.22% of the existing system were identified as being deficient (greater than 64% full for pipes smaller than 15” or greater than 75% full for pipes 15” or larger) based on the computer model. The deficient sewer reaches are located throughout the City within Tributary Areas 1, 3, 4, 13, 15, 36, and 75, however, the most severe deficiencies occur in Tributary Area No. 75. Please refer to Exhibit 1 in Appendix B for a map indicating the deficient site locations. The costs to repair the deficient reaches is estimated to be $2.76 million. However, a schedule for the repair of the deficient reaches has not been prepared at this time, until additional flow monitoring is performed, and funding becomes available to make the repairs.
In the event of significant changes to the General Plan upon which this study was based, the model should be updated to reflect the consequences of such changes. The model should also be updated to reflect the construction of new relief facilities and/or the construction of new sewer lines.
Introduction
The City of Covina is a community of approximately 48,000 residents that contains a mixed development of residential, commercial, and industrial areas. Covina is a lowdensity community of which slightly over 45% of the city is housing. In recent years development within the City has intensified, creating greater demands on public facilities including the City’s sewer system. The City owns the local sewer system consisting of approximately 120 miles of gravity flow sewer pipelines that is maintained by the City.
The City’s sewer system is connected at various locations to trunk sewers and pipelines owned, operated, and maintained by the County of Los Angeles Sanitation Districts. In 2002, a Sewer Master Plan (SMP) was prepared which analyzed the City’s sewer system for existing and planned build out conditions. The 2002 SMP determined segments of the system that were deficient and recommended improvements to correct the deficiencies. The purpose of this report is to update the 2002 SMP to reflect improvements which have been constructed, identify the capability of the City’s sewer system to serve projected development based on updated zoning information, to identify system deficiencies, prioritize the deficient segments, and to recommend necessary system improvements.
Study Approach
The preparation of the Sewer Master Plan Update involved various tasks. The sequence of tasks used in this study was the following:
1. Update information for the existing sewer system (i.e., pipe size, slope, elevations).
Record drawings for projects constructed since the 2002 SMP were researched and the information was input into the computer models.
2. Update information for the land usage for the study. The City provided the City of Covina Zoning map dated 3/2/2015 and the Covina Town Center Specific Plan dated October 17, 2019. (see Exhibits 2 and 3).
3. Update the computer modelling of the complete City sewer system. The 2002 SMP modeled the system using Pizer Hydra Ver. 6.1. This program is no longer supported and the modelling was updated to use InfoSewer 7.6 by Innovyze. This program is GIS based and is therefore a more useful tool.
4. Analysis of the system capacity and determination of system deficiencies (see Exhibit 1).
5. Development of recommendations for system improvements to correct deficiencies.
6. Preparation of cost estimate for the recommended improvements.
7. Preparation of the Sewer Master Plan Update report.
Summary of Findings
Approximately 120 miles of sewer were modeled. Of the 120 miles, approximately 1.46 miles of the system were identified as being deficient. See Exhibit 1 for the deficient sites.
The overloaded sewers are scattered throughout the City, with the most severe occurring in Tributary Area No. 75. This sewer system was previously identified as deficient in the previous SMP and the improvements have not been constructed.
The recommended deficiency correction projects are estimated to cost $2,751,773. This cost is based on 2020 anticipated construction costs and include engineering, contract administration, inspection, survey, and contingency costs.
The City system consists of vitrified clay pipe (VCP) and was built from the 1940’s to present. The oldest section of the system being the Old Downtown Area. With an anticipated life span for VCP of over 100 years, no collapse of existing lines due to age deterioration is expected for several decades. The 2002 SMP included Exhibit No. 2 showing the system year of construction.
Summary of Recommendations
Initial deficiency correction projects should be concentrated in Tributary Area No. 75. The estimated cost for proposed improvements for Area No. 75 is $982,294.
After major deficiencies in Tributary Area No. 75 are corrected, Areas No. 36, 3, 1, 13, 15 and 4 should be corrected. These systems are overloaded. • The estimated cost for proposed improvements for Area No. 36 is $406,634. • The estimated cost for proposed improvements for Area No. 3 is $755,946. • The estimated cost for proposed improvements for Area No. 1 is $106,488. • The estimated cost for proposed improvements for Area No. 13 is $109,080. • The estimated cost for proposed improvements for Area No. 15 is $102,290. • The estimated cost for proposed improvements for Area No. 4 is $289,042.
The deficiencies in Areas No. 36, 3, 1, 13, 15 and 4 are somewhat flexible in priority timing, however, should not be overlooked and could be added to any year to match City’s budgets. The estimated cost for proposed improvements in these remaining areas is $1,769,479.
In the event of significant changes to the General Plan upon which this study was based, the model should be updated to reflect the consequences of such changes. The model should also be updated to reflect the construction of new relief facilities and/or the construction of new sewer lines.
Analysis of Existing Sewer System
The existing sewers within the study area are shown in Exhibit No. 1 The existing sewer system for the City of Covina consists primarily of 8-inch vitrified clay pipe (VCP) collector sewers. The City’s sewer system also includes relatively short lengths of 10- and 12-inch VCP pipes. These lines eventually discharge to a number of trunk sewers owned by Los Angeles County Sanitation District.
The sewer system network consisting of 120 miles of sewer mains was divided into 105 drainage areas for input into the computer model. The input data consisted of a numerical designation for each manhole and length of sewer between the manholes, the flow line elevations, the slope of the line, and flow line and rim elevation of each manhole. This information was carried forward from the 2002 SMP and updated for projects constructed after 2002.
Computation of Wastewater Inflows
Once the schematic of the sewer system network was established, data was compiled on the tributary drainage basins, land use, and other factors that affect the volume of wastewater generated. The tributary drainage areas defined in the 2002 SMP were utilized in the current analysis and updated as necessary.
Next, it was necessary to compute the area of each type of land use; e.g., low-density residential, medium-density residential, high-density residential, commercial, industrial, etc., within each drainage boundary. The unit flow coefficients (see Table 1) were then applied to the computed area of land use within each drainage district. The unit flow coefficients, when applied to the land use areas, provide peak flow rates for each particular land use category. The wastewater inflows calculated for the various land use categories within the drainage districts were then accumulated to provide the calculated peak flow for the entire drainage district. The accumulation of estimated wastewater flow is accomplished totally within the computer program.

Flow Monitoring
The 2002 SMP obtained flow monitoring data to compare with the preliminary calculated flows that were generated by the computer program. The sites that were composed of commercial development were found to have higher flows than expected. The unit flow coefficient for commercial zones C-1 – C-4 was revised to 0.021. This is the same as zones M-1 – M-4. See Table 1 for final Peak flow rates. All other land use zones flow rates were found to meet expected flow rates. The flow rate coefficients from the 2002 SMP were not changed for this report.
Deficiency Criteria
The City’s sewer system was modeled using InfoSewer 7.6 by Innovyze. The program is designed to provide analysis of both the existing sewer system and the design of any new sewer lines.
In designing or evaluating a wastewater collection system, the engineer must establish certain criteria upon which to base the design. These include such things as available pipe sizes, minimum slope, minimum cover, friction factors, etc. Many of the design assumptions are unnecessary in the analysis of a collection system when the pipe already exists and its diameter, slope, and cover are fixed.
Design criteria are established to ensure that the wastewater collection system can operate effectively under all flow conditions. Each pipe segment must be capable of carrying the peak flows without surcharging the system. Surcharging is defined as exceeding the capacity of the pipe. Capacity is discussed in detail in the paragraphs below.
In the analysis of an existing sewer system, the InfoSewerprogram compares the capacity of each pipe in the system with the peak wastewater flow projected for that particular link.
If the existing pipe size is surcharged, the InfoSewerprogram automatically increases the pipe diameter to the next largest standard pipe size that will carry the design flow without being surcharged. At a minimum, all pipes should be 8 inches or larger in diameter and the velocity of flow in the pipe should be greater than 2 feet per second (ft/s). This velocity will prevent deposition of solids in the sewer and help to re-suspend any materials that may have already settled in the pipe. The minimum corresponding slopes to maintain 2 ft/s for varies pipe sizes are shown in Table 2
Table 2
Minimum Sewer Slopes ft/ft
Sewer Size Slope
8” 0.0028
10” 0.0021
12” 0.0016
15” 0.0012
18” 0.0010
It is important to note that the slopes listed above assume the depth of flow in the pipe is 64 percent full. If there is insufficient flow to create this condition, greater slopes than those shown may be required.
The design and analysis of gravity sewer pipes is typically based upon determining the capacity of the pipe using the depth of flow (d) to pipe diameter (D) ratio. This is referred to as the d/D ratio.. Common design criteria for proposed new sewer design is to have a maximum d/D ratio of 0.50 for pipes up to and including15-inch diameter and d/D of 0.75 for pipes larger than 15-inch diameter. Existing wastewater systems are allowed to flow fuller (have less residual capacity) because development and redevelopment has occurred or is foreseeable in the near future, which reduces the margin of error in predicting sewage flows. This report utilizes the same criteria as the 2002 SMP for hydraulic capacity. The hydraulic design criteria established in the 2002 SMP for existing sewer pipes classified pipes with a diameter less than 15-inches as “over capacity” if the d/D ratio was determined to be greater than 0.64. This d/D ratio was arrived at by taking 75 percent of the depth to diameter ratio at a pipe maximum stable flow capacity. Circular pipes are hydraulically stable up to a d/D value of 0.85. When pipes flow at a depth greater than 85% full they are hydraulically unstable. Therefore, “over capacity” pipes have a d/D value exceeding 75% x
0.85 = 0.64. This results in approximately 35 percent of the pipe’s full flow capacity being reserved for inflow, infiltration and hydraulic stability. For pipes with a diameter of 15- inches or greater, the pipe capacity is d/D = 0.75. This criteria is shown in the Tables 3 and 4 below and in Exhibits 4 and 5.

>15” 0.75
Table 4
Existing Sewer Pipe Capacity d/D Ratio

<15” 0.64
15” and larger 0.75
The extra pipeline capacity allows for the possibility that actual wastewater flows may be slightly higher than anticipated, especially during the hours when instantaneous or intermittent peaks may occur. These peaks are generally observed between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. Monday thru Friday and between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. Saturday and Sunday. They may also be observed during rainfall events due to inflow.
Additionally, the area above the water surface helps to keep the sewage aerated, reducing the possibility of septic conditions and odors.
Exhibit 1 shows the pipes that are deficient per the 0.64 criteria and also shows the pipes that are deficient per the 0.50 criteria. Only the pipes that exceed the 0.64 criteria are recommended for correction projects.
The design capacity of a gravity pipeline is the calculated capacity of the pipeline based on the Manning formula:
Q=1.486 A R
2/3 S1/2 /n where,Q = flow in cubic feet per second
R = hydraulic radius in feet = A/ P
A = cross-sectional area of the pipe flow in square
feet
P = wetted perimeter in feet
S = slope of the pipe in feet of rise per foot of length n = Manning’s friction factor
Sewer system capacity is established using a Manning’s friction factor of 0.013 for vitrified clay pipe.
Recommended Deficiency Correction Project
General
Numerous alternatives were studied in developing the recommended schedule of deficiency correction projects. Construction of a parallel sewer facility to carry the excess sewage flow is an obvious solution to most of the deficiencies; however, this solution is not necessarily the most economical or practical approach. In some instances the construction of a single relief sewer line can be planned in such a way that it will relieve several main sewer lines thereby avoiding the construction of parallel facilities and the duplicate cost. In other instances, the replacement of the existing sewer with a larger size may be the preferred alternative. The decision as to which correction alternative to construct is usually best made during the design phase.
The engineer’s estimate (see Appendix A) was prepared based on the cost to remove and replace the existing sewer with a larger size, as this is the most conservative cost approach.
It is suggested that where the depth of flow exceeds the design criteria of 0.64 d/D (0.75 for pipes 15” and larger), but does not exceed the maximum stable flow capacity of 0.85 d/D,
that consideration be given to allowing these sewers to flow in a slightly overloaded condition in lieu of building a costly relief facility. This overloading occurs only during peak flow conditions that are short in duration. The City should monitor these sewers such that, if a problem occurs in the future, it may be corrected at that time.
Recommended Sewer System Improvements
Presented in Table 5 is a brief summary of the measures recommended to correct the deficiencies shown on Exhibit 1. The criteria for recommending and prioritizing relief facilities are as follows:
1. Sewers with critical deficiencies of d/D > 0.85, are recommended for correction measures. Sewers meeting these criteria are ranked highest.
2. Sewers with critical deficiencies of 0.64 < d/D < 0.85 (0.75 < d/D < 0.85 for pipes 15” and larger) are recommended for correction measures. Sewers meeting these criteria are ranked lower.
3. Sewers with non-critical deficiencies of d/D < 0.64 (d/D < 0.75 for pipes 15” and larger) are not recommended for correction measures. These sewers are not ranked.
It should be pointed out that the recommended relief facilities as presented here are general in nature and should not be considered as absolutes for final design. Rather, they should be considered more as a general design concept. Further refinement and analysis will be necessary before initiation of the final design of improvements for each of the relief facilities.

Sewer System Improvements Costs
The unit prices shown in the Engineer’s Estimate (see Appendix A) represent the anticipated construction cost utilizing 2020 cost data. Bid prices received on jobs of similar nature in Southern California area were one source of information used to derive the cost figure. In addition, manufacturers, suppliers of material and equipment, and local contractors were consulted on various cost items. The unit prices do not include right-ofway acquisition or legal costs. An additional 35% of construction cost is added to cover the cost of design engineering, contract administration, inspection, survey and contingency cost.
The Engineer’s Estimate does not include an adjustment for inflation. Construction costs can be expected to fluctuate as corresponding changes occur in the national or local economy. One available indicator of these changes is the Engineering News-Record Construction Cost Index for the Los Angeles metropolitan area. This index is compiled from actual construction cost data for materials and labor and is reported in Engineering News-Record magazine. It is suggested that this index be used to update the unit prices presented in the Appendix and in adjusting the estimate from the date of the initial estimates.
Financing of Improvements
General
Funding and financing considerations are often the deciding factor in the scope and implementation of a project. There are numerous methods which could be used to finance the implementation of a sewer system capital improvement plan (CIP), and the ongoing operations and maintenance activities, and these methods can be combined if needed.
These methods include the following:
1. New or increased sewer rates
2. The formation of an assessment district
3. The formation of a Community Facilities District (CFD)
4. City-wide special taxes
5. State Assistance Programs
6. Federal Assistance Programs
In the discussion that follows, the suitability of the aforementioned funding options for a sewer system CIP are briefly discussed. In evaluating specific funding programs, services of financial and legal experts in such issues are recommended.
Methods of Financing
1. New or increased sewer rates:
When compared with other funding and financing options, the establishment of new or increased sewer rates is often the most attractive. This is because Proposition 218 reserves a special method for creating water, sewer and refuse fees that does not require approval by registered voters or fee-payers. Instead, the public agency is required to perform a detailed study demonstrating (i) a nexus between the new or increased fee and the services and facilities to be funded, and (ii) a roughly proportional relationship between the fee charged and the benefits received. A public hearing is required, but the public agency may establish the new or increased fees with a simple majority vote of the governing body.
2. Formation of an assessment district:
For projects that specifically benefit a smaller area, the City may opt to form an assessment district. Special assessments are liens that are placed on the benefitting properties. They may be paid up-front or financed through municipal bonds.
Assessment liens are secured by the underlying land and are not an obligation of the City. They require a 50% majority approval of the assessed properties with each ballot weighted by assessment amount.
3. Formation of a Community Facilities District (CFD):
For projects that are needed for new development, a CFD is often the preferred tool.
Establishing a CFD requires approval by two-thirds of registered voters within the proposed district, but most CFDs are formed on land that contains no registered voters with 100% approval of the owners of the underlying property. In those cases, they are used more often than assessment districts because of their flexibility and ability to create escalating special taxes.
4. City-Wide Special Taxes:
If the City intends to make improvements that benefit the entire City, special tax measures may be voted on during a regularly scheduled election by registered voters within the City. The City may either authorize a General Obligation bond (GO Bond) and charge property within the City as a percentage of its assessed value or establish a special tax that charges flat rates to parcels of property based on property characteristics (a “Parcel Tax”). Parcel Taxes have the advantage of being used for both facilities and services.
5. State Assistance Programs:
Under the rules and regulations of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (Clean Water Act or CWA) and the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), the State has enacted the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) and the Drinking Water Revolving Fund (DWSRF), respectively. These programs are funded by Federal grants, State funds and Revenue bonds. The CWSRF Loan Program provides lowinterest loan funding for construction of publicly-owned wastewater treatment facilities,
sewers, sewer interceptors, water recycling facilities, as well as implementation of nonpoint source (NPS) projects or programs. There are different types of funding assistance available under these programs.
www.waterboards.ca.gov/water_issues/programs/grants_loans/srf/ The Department of Water Resources administers the State bond law programs for Water supply/Water quality, Water conservation, Flood management and Regional water management. www.grantsloans.water.ca.gov
The State Water Resources Control Board administers the State revolving fund loans, Water recycling grants & loans, Small community grants, Agricultural drainage loans, Agricultural drainage management loans, Clean beaches initiative grants, Agricultural water quality grants, Areas of special biological significance (ASBS) grants, Storm water grants, and Santa Monica Bay restoration commission grants. www.waterboards.ca.gov
The State Department of Public Health administers the DWSRF, Proposition 84 funding for public water systems, and Proposition 50 for the water security, clean drinking water, coastal and beach protection act of 2002 loans. www.cdph.ca.gov
Various types of infrastructure improvement/construction loans can be arranged through the California Infrastructure and Economic Development Bank (IBank). www.ibank.ca.gov
Limited amounts of public works grant funds have been available to agencies from the State Office of Economic Development. Use of such grant funds must result in the creation of new, permanent jobs in the private sector. In order to ensure that the funds are ultimately assisting those in most need, projects eligible for consideration must be those in areas designated eligible for HUD Urban Development Action Grants (UDAG), EDA Sudden or Long-term Economic Deterioration, or EDA Designated Special Impact Area.
6. Federal Assistance Programs:
There are, and have been, a series of federal grant and loan programs which may be applicable to public infrastructure projects. However, the qualification criteria for such programs vary from time to time and their funding or continuation is subject to congressional appropriations. Therefore, such programs should not be considered as a likely source of funds unless a funding commitment letter has been received.
Historically, federal programs administered by the Economic Development Administration (EDA) provide financial and technical assistance to aid the economic development of areas with high unemployment or low family income levels.
Communities must make long-range plans for economic growth in order to be eligible for EDA financial assistance, in the form of grants and loans for public works and development that generates jobs and economic opportunity. Typical public works projects include construction of roads, water and sewer lines, and public facilities. To determine the status requires timely monitoring.
Under the rules and regulations of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program can fund housing and community development needs. This includes part or all of the improvements necessary to upgrade existing sewer facilities. Those qualifying geographic areas within the City that have the greatest overall deficiency in physical infrastructure receive the highest priority according to CDBG criteria. When the sewer system has a defined deficiency, then it is appropriate to use CDBG funds to meet health and safety standards as well as to encourage up-grading of abutting housing and physical environment.
The primary statutory objective of the CDBG program is to develop viable communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment and by expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons of low- and moderateincome. Communities receiving CDBG funds through the State may use the funds for many kinds of community development activities including, but not limited to:
• acquisition of property for public purposes;
• construction or reconstruction of streets, water and sewer facilities, neighborhood centers, recreation facilities, and other public works; • demolition;
• rehabilitation of public and private buildings;
• public services;
• planning activities;
• assistance to nonprofit entities for community development activities; and • assistance to private, for profit entities to carry out economic development activities (including assistance to micro-enterprises). www.hcd.ca.gov/ca/cdbg/about/html
The United State Department of Agriculture Rural Development Program provides communities with population less than 50,000 a variety of direct-guaranteed-loans and/or grants. These include water and wastewater system improvement funding. www.rurdev.usa.gov/ca
