Rehabilitation of Sanitary Sewer Collection Systems

1

Dan Beauchamp, P.E.

Part 41, Sewerage Systems, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, PA 451 as amended (NREPA)

2

R 299.2933

Rule 33. (1) Before the construction or alteration of a sewerage system or portions thereof, plans and specifications shall be submitted to the Department for review and issuance of a construction permit.

3

R 299.2931

(a) "Alteration" means the construction of any modification or addition to an existing sewerage system which changes the process or system capacity

4

1. Cured in Place Pipe (CIPP)

2. Slip Lining

3. Pipe Bursting

4. Manhole Rehabilitation

5. Open Cut Repairs (replacing same size with different pipe material)

6. General sewer maintenance

5

Consists of lining the inside of a pipe with an epoxy resin

6

The change in the pipe diameter from the existing pipe is usually less then 5%, and

Does not significantly reduce the hydraulic capacity of the sewer

7

A Part 41 permit may be required - contact the local district office of the DEQ for determining if a Part 41 permit is necessary

8

An appropriately sized liner pipe is inserted into an existing pipe

9

The change in the Pipe Diameter is usually greater then 5% of the existing pipe diameter size

The change in pipe diameter will significantly decrease the hydraulic capacity of the collection sewer for that run

10

A Part 41 permit will be required due to the change in the hydraulic capacity of the sewer

11

Insertion of a cone shaped bursting head that fractures the old pipe and pushes the fragments into the surrounding soil

A new pipe is pulled into place

12

Typically, the pipe inserted is of larger diameter than the existing sewer pipe, which will alter the hydraulic capacity of the sewer

A Part 41 permit is required, due to the change in the hydraulic capacity of the sewer

13

Chimney repair

Sealing cracks and joints

Replacing covers

Repairing sewer channel

14

A Part 41 permit IS NOT required

Manhole rehabilitation does not alter the hydraulic capacity of the sewer

15

A Part 41 Permit is NOT required IF:

16

The new sewer pipe is the same diameter as the existing pipe different material may be used

17

1. Cleaning/Jetting

2. Televising

Part 41 Permit Is NOT required

3. Grouting

4. Smoke testing

5. Manhole inspection

6. Open cut sewer repair replacing a pipe section or two

18

“A city, village, county, township, authority, or other public body, including an intermunicipal agency of 2 or more municipalities, authorized or created under state law; or an Indian tribe that has jurisdiction over construction and operation of sewage treatment works or other projects qualifying under section 319 of title III of the federal water pollution control act, 33 USC 1329.”

Public bodies (other than cities, villages, counties, and townships) and Authorities applying for SAW grants or loans must indicate the relevant authorizing statute in the application.

Testing and demonstration of innovative technology

21

New $2 million grant cap per community

- 90% grant/10% local match up to $1 million - 75% grant/25% local match for 2nd million - 100% grant to disadvantaged communities, municipalities in receivership, municipalities operating under an emergency manager, municipalities operating under a financial consent agreement

22

Construction of projects identified in approved stormwater management plan

Construction of projects identified in approved asset management plan

Construction of projects of proven innovative technology

23

Costs for construction

No Davis-Bacon

No public participation requirements

$30 million max for loans with $10 million per applicant for FY14

Interest rate – 2.5% for FY14

24

Final application available Oct. 1, 2013

Accepted on or after December 2, 2013, no prior review

120-day DEQ review period

Grants funded first-come, first served

25

Complete inventory of system assets

• Condition assessment is allowed but reasonable assumption of some assets is acceptable

• Cleaning/Televising entire system is not expected

Wastewater must show significant progress towards funding structure w/in 3 years

• initial rate increase to close 10% of gap w/in 3 years with 5 year plan to eliminate full gap

Stormwater must be implemented w/in 3 years

26

Wastewater applicants agree to NPDES Asset Management conditions in their next permit reissuance

NPDES permit language on our website

27

Businesses not eligible, only municipalities

Must address a problem or need (water quality issue, lower costs, less energy, green innovative)

Must meet one of four categories

Pilot study work plan must be submitted with grant application

If demonstration is determined feasible grantee must agree to construct a full-scale project

28

29

Must meet one or more of the following: The technology has not been previously used in Michigan or

the region, if influenced by climate

The technology has not been previously used in the United States, if independent of climate influences

The technology is an application of an existing technology applied to a different media (e.g. a water supply treatment technology applied to the wastewater field)

The technology is an application of an existing technology applied to a different pollutant (e.g. previously used to address pollutant ‘X’, proposed to address pollutant ‘Y’)
