Cost-Effective Solution to Siloed WWTP and CSO Administrative Orders

Abstract

This paper was presented at WEFTEC 2023 in Chicago, IL.

In 2019, Water Pollution Control Authority of Bridgeport embarked on a comprehensive Facilities Plan to identify WWTP improvements to enable reliable service for the 30-year horizon. The plan, completed in 11/2020, recommended a complete upgrade & expansion of two WWTPs resulting in a more robust & resilient system that cost-effectively improves water quality through reliable treatment systems & the timely reduction of CSOs, while also addressing nitrogen discharges and resiliency requirements.

Development of an Approved Hartford Integrated Plan: A Delicate Balance of Separation, Tunnel Storage, and Watershed Management

Abstract

The Metropolitan District (District) provides water and sewer services to approximately 400,000 people in the Hartford, CT region. The sewer system includes 1,960 kilometers of pipe dating back to the mid-1800s. For two decades, planning and implementation of the District’s Clean Water Project has included $2 billion in expenditures reducing four million m3 of combined sewer overflows (CSOs) in a typical year by more than half. Recently, the District developed an Integrated Plan to address the remaining CSOs over the next four decades based on lessons learned from completed projects.
