6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The City’sSanitary Sewer Management Plan requires routine cleaning and video inspection of the City’s approximately 312 miles of sewer line in order to mitigate sewer spills and to stay in compliance with the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) Order No. 2006-0003- DWQ entitled Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems and its Monitoring and Reporting Program (MRP) amendment WQ 2013-0058-EXEC. In addition, the data gathered during video inspection of the sewer lines is used to identify infrastructure deficiencies and plan for Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects.
In order to keep up with the maintenance of over 312 miles of sewer lines and approximately 7,045 sewer manholes, the City has been using an outside contractor to conduct a portion of the required sewer line cleaning and video inspection. The contract with the current service provider will expire on City of Orange Printed on 4/7/2022Page 1 of 2
