RECOMMENDATION Approval of this Resolution. BACKGROUND The City of Pueblo Wastewater Department is undertaking the second and final phase of a Flow Monitoring Project begun by ADS Environmental Services, Inc., in 1997. Initial mapping and data collection was performed by ADS Environmental Services, Inc., in 1997 following a formal bid process. The 2005 work will determine if corrective measures taken by the Wastewater Department have eliminated the infiltration and inflow problems identified in the 1997 study, and provide an analysis of the current hydraulic performance of the sanitary sewer collection system. The data will also be used to develop a flow and capacity analysis for updating the Sanitary Sewer Master Plan. The final project phase, to be completed in 2005, includes repeating the data collection phase from 1997 and using statistical analysis of the 1997 and the 2005 data sets to assess the effectiveness of sanitary sewer improvements in reducing infiltration and inflow. The results of this monitoring will be important in allowing the City to comply with pending federal regulations regarding Capacity, Management, Operation and Maintenance (CMOM) of sanitary sewer systems. The results may also be important to the City in regard to complying with selenium regulations in the discharge permit under which the James R. Dilorio Water Reclamation Facility operates. Contingency funds are requested because flow monitoring must span a period of rainfall. The agreement specifies installation of flow monitoring equipment by June, which is the month in which Pueblo has historically experienced maximum rainfall. However, if no rain events occur, the flow monitoring period will have to be extended. The contingency funds are intended to account for this eventuality. FINANCIAL IMPACT Funds for said project shall be expended from the State Revolving Loan Fund for sanitary sewer improvements.
