On May 21, 2019, the City Council approved the Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) update. The SSMP is a document that describes the activities an agency uses to manage its wastewater collection system effectively. The goal of the SSMP is to provide a plan and schedule to properly manage, operate and maintain all parts of the sanitary sewer system, which aids in the reduction and prevention of sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) and mitigates the impacts of SSOs when they do occur. The SSMP is a document required by the State Water Resources Control Board in accordance with Water Quality Order No. WQO 2013-0058-EXE.
The City’s 2019 SSMP lists thirteen (13) specific actions that need to be implemented.
Action No. 4 states in part: “Proceed with five (5) year cleaning schedule and five (5) year CCTV inspection of the entire collection system”. To date, the City has inspected approximately 129.29 miles of sewer mains using the Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) inspection method and has cleaned over 576 miles of sewer mains through internal resources and as part of various Sewer Capital Improvement Projects, including Sewer Lining projects.
To continue implementing Action No. 4 of the City’s 2019 SSMP, City staff planned to contract with a qualified company to perform the CCTV inspection and evaluate the condition of each segment of sewer mains within a preselected area of the City. Through this project, approximately, 40 miles of the worst pipes will be cleaned and reinspected using CCTV inspection method and the video data will be thoroughly analyzed to identify the location and severity of any structural defects. In addition, approximately 605 manholes will be condition rated using SI 360˚ Manhole Assessment Certification Program (MACP) Level 2 Digital Manhole Inspection method. This video data will be provided in a database that has a Geographical Information System (GIS) location data that will be used to verify or correct the current GIS sewer system data. A consultant civil engineering company will also make recommendations to correct structural defects by identifying specific sewer rehabilitation projects.
