Alum Creek Storm Tanks - Real Time Control
This project will
construct a 450-ft of 60-inch corrosion resistant pipe to replace the existing
42-inch sanitary sewer near Roads End Pl. and College Ave. This
project will also rehabilitate the elliptical pipe under Alum Creek near Roads
End Place. It will also remove the flap gate on Alum Creek Interceptor Sewer near
Airport Dr. and Kelenard Ave., and rehabilitate associated manhole structures.
The
goal of the project is to mitigate sewer overflow to Alum Creek at DSR 244 near
Roads End Pl. to a 10-year level of service, and prevent river inflow and
infiltration to the sanitary sewer. This project also allows us to fully
utilize the upstream end of the Alum Creek Interceptor Sewer.
Pending final approval from Ohio EPA, construction
is expected to begin in late Fall of 2020.
Financing for this project is being provided
through a below market-rate loan from the OEPA’s Water Pollution Control Loan
Fund (WPCLF) Program. Prior to granting this loan, the Ohio EPA required a
detailed submittal from the Division of Sewerage and Drainage to determine the
project’s eligibility.
