EPA Compliant Sanitary Sewer Collection System Evaluation

Weston & Sampson prepared a Sewer Collection System Operation & Maintenance Manual for Village of Tuxedo Park, New York to comply with a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requirement.

Our team prepared a manual that included a schedule for routine inspections, maintenance, and cleaning of collection system components; plan for responding to residential collection system complaints; plan for addressing collection system “hot spots;” plan for identifying all inflow to the tributary system and removing excessive infiltration/inflow where feasible; plan for enacting, maintaining, and enforcing an up-to-date and effective Sewer Use Law in all parts of the POTW service area in order to control discharges; schedule for periodic review and update of written procedures for operation and maintenance; and other operation and maintenance specific to the particular municipality. In addition, the manual includes pump station record documents, DPW organizational charts, current training procedures, emergency response procedures, and equipment inventories.
