Overview • City of Lawrence • The Background • The System • Sewers Split by an Interceptor • SSES • The Reason • The Goals • GIS • One Tool In The Toolbox • Flow Meter Basins • Tracking Data – Field to Client • Conditional Analysis • Criticality Analysis • Projects and Future Maintenance • ArcPublisher • Questions
City of LawrenceThe Background • Lawrence is a satellite community to Indianapolis • WWTP was decommissioned in 1980s • Wastewater was then diverted to Indianapolis’ Southport Advanced Wastewater Treatment Facility • Minimum locations of direct customer connections to each system
City of LawrenceThe System • Managed by City of Lawrence Utilities • Sanitary sewer system is separate from storm system • 915,800 lf of sanitary sewer, sized 8” to 36” • 36,350 lf of sanitary force main • 23 sanitary sewer lift stations • Private sanitary systems • 116,000 lf of sanitary sewer and 471 manholes
City of LawrenceSewers Split by an Interceptor • City-owned collection is bisected by an Indianapolis-owned interceptor • Lawrence, Indianapolis has 41,800 lf of sanitary sewers, sizes 24” to 48” • Indianapolis also has 112 manholes in Lawrence’s city boundary
SSESThe Reason • June 2006―EPA conducts wet weather inspection • September 2008―EPA issues Order for Compliance • EPA Mandated Deliverables: • Sanitary Sewer Overflow (SSO) Reporting Procedure • Public Notification Program regarding SSOs • Overflow Emergency Response Plan • Capacity, Management, Operations, and Maintenance (CMOM) Program • Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Survey (SSES)
SSESThe Goals • Identify sources and quantities of clear water infiltration/inflow (I/I) in all public and private sewer systems • Determine feasible solutions to eliminate I/I • Mitigate impact of excessive I/I on SSOs and water in basement within the city and all downstream sewer systems
GISOne Tool in the Toolbox • Data management • Able to track field services • Manhole Inspections – 3900+ ea • Survey Level GPS – 2300+ ea • Smoke Testing – 670,000+ lf • CCTV/Cleaning – 244,000+ lf • Data analysis review • Ability to see patterns of system conditions • Spatial relationships • Assistance in future system decisions
GISFlow Meter Basins • Baseline data developed with GIS by defining basins for flow metering • GIS used to confirm sanitary system connectivity
GISTracking Data - Field to Client • Manholes inspections, smoke testing, CCTV, and cleaning of existing facilities • Survey-grade GPS on critical structures • Mapping-grade GPS on all inspected structures • MS Access database provided with shapefiles • Data placed into GIS to track field progress • Allowed staff to focus in areas of concern
GISConditional Analysis • Field data reviewed and rated per industry standards • GIS used to place data within mapping for City-wide review of results • GIS conditional analysis assisted in generating boundaries for grants and future projects
GISCriticality Analysis • Criticality – system spatial relationship related to following categories: • Public Health – 30% • Environmental Impact – 25% • Transportation – 20% • Quantity of Flow – 15% • Ease of Emergency Repair – 10%
GISCriticality Analysis Criticality Criteria
GISProjects and Future Maintenance • Placing field data into GIS assists in pinpointing projects • Allows the City to plan project monies in current and future fiscal years • Focus can be placed on scheduled maintenance • Data is analyzed to determine critical areas of concern
