POTWs with separate sanitary sewer
systems can also lessen the impact of
peak flows by implementing a variety of
strategies to minimize the introduction
of stormwater into the collection
system. While virtually every separate
sanitary sewer system has some
groundwater infiltration and
stormwater-derived I/I, it may be
considered excessive when it is the
cause of overflows or causes disruptions
in the treatment system. POTWs with
excessive I/I have a number of different
methods for identifying the largest
sources of I/I in their sewer system.
These include system mapping, flow
monitoring, conducting smoke or dye
tests, sensor technology, and using
optical devices to view sections of the
system. Developing plans for correcting
and rehabilitating the highest priority
sources of I/I into the collection system
may involve such strategies as repairing
manholes, replacing and repairing
private building lateral pipes, ensuring
building downspouts are not connected
to the sewer system, sealing sewer
joints, inserting sewer liners, or even
replacing sections of the sewer line.
Other strategies may focus on
maximizing existing collection system
capacity through real-time controls to
optimize flows within the system, or
building additional storage within the
collection system or treatment plant.
EPA acknowledges the significant
expertise that exists among states, tribes,
POTWs and municipal officials,
engineering firms, public health
agencies, and the public related to these
issues. These listening sessions are
designed to take advantage of this
information from a variety of
perspectives to help provide a complete
picture of the considerations that should
go into any rulemaking to address
permitting requirements for the
management of peak flows at POTWs
with separate sanitary sewer systems.

III. Areas of Feedback Requested for
Public Listening Sessions
Interested members of the public who
plan to provide oral or written
testimony at the listening sessions, or to
submit written material to EPA
separately as detailed in the instructions
provided in the ADDRESSES section of
this notice, are welcome to provide their
input on any issue related to the topic
of peak flow management at POTW
treatment plants with separate sanitary
sewer systems. But EPA particularly
welcomes feedback from the public on
the following specific questions.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:42 Aug 30, 2018
Jkt 244001
• What strategies have you found to
be successful in reducing peak flow
volumes at the POTW treatment plant?
• What permitting or other regulatory
approaches are you aware of that in
your opinion provide a good basis for
any rulemaking in this area?
• What treatment technologies have
POTWs with separate sanitary sewer
systems used successfully to manage
peak excess flows during wet weather?
How effective are these technologies at
meeting effluent limitations? What are
examples of technologies addressing
other pollutants not typically subject to
discharge requirements in NPDES
permits (e.g., pathogens)? Related to
these questions, do you have supporting
treatment efficacy data that you would
be willing to share with EPA for this
rulemaking?
• What are your specific suggestions
regarding conditions that could be
included in NPDES permits to allow
diversions of some peak flows around
biological treatment units to protect the
treatment plant? Considerations could
include:
—What information might the NPDES
permitting authority need in order to
determine whether such diversions
are necessary to protect the treatment
plant?
—Should the number of times such
diversions are permitted to occur be
limited or reported?
—Are there any requirements that
should be considered for ensuring
that the treatment plant is operated
and maintained in an effective
manner to minimize the number of
peak flow diversions that occur?
—What requirements would be
appropriate for ensuring that
maintenance of the collection system
to minimize the introduction of
stormwater into the sanitary system
through inflow and infiltration is
occurring?
—What monitoring and reporting
requirements would be important to
demonstrate that applicable effluent
limits are still being met?
—How may the permit ensure that
public and ecological health is
protected?
