Page 10 of 57 <br />Specifications 5.2 – SSMP Development and Implementation <br />WDR REQUIREMENTS <br />Specification. 5.2 (pg. 18) <br />“To facilitate adequate local funding and management of its sanitary sewer system(s), the Enrollee shall <br />develop and implement an updated Sewer System Management Plan. The scale and complexity of the <br />Sewer System Management Plan, and specific elements of the Plan, must match the size, scale, and <br />complexity of the Enrollee’s sanitary sewer system(s). The Sewer System Management Plan must <br />address, at minimum, the required Plan elements in Attachment D (Sewer System Management Plan – <br />Required Elements) of this General Order. To be effective, the Sewer System Management Plan must <br />include procedures for the management, operation, and maintenance of the sanitary sewer system(s). <br />The procedures must: (1) incorporate the prioritization of system repairs and maintenance to proactively <br />prevent spills, and (2) address the implementation of current standard industry practices through <br />available equipment, technologies, and strategies.” <br />COMPLIANCE <br />The City's current Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) has been updated to meet the requirements of <br />Order WQ 2022-0103-DWQ and addresses the required Elements. The SSMP addresses management, <br />operations and maintenance procedures specific to the City’s collection system. The City maintains a <br />proactive O&M program to operate its system and identify defects, which are then prioritized for repair, <br />replacement, rehabilitation, or placed on modified maintenance schedules. (See Elements 4 and 8 and <br />Specifications 5.19 of this SSMP for more detail.) <br />The City keeps up with current industry standards, technology and best practices by reviewing industry <br />periodicals, networking, attending training classes, and attending industry conferences and workshops. The <br />City continuously evaluates emerging practices, equipment and technologies for possible implementation <br />to enhance sewer operations. <br />
