BACKGROUND: On May 2, 2016, the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) adopted Order No. 2006-0003 Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements (WDR) for Sanitary Sewer Systems, developing a regulatory mechanism to provide a consistent statewide approach for reducing sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs). The City’s sanitary sewer system is subject to this WDR, which required each agency to create a Sanitary Sewer Management Plan (SSMP) to provide a plan and schedule to properly manage, operate, and maintain all parts of the sanitary sewer system to help reduce and prevent SSOs, as well as mitigate any SSOs that do occur.
The WDR requires that the SSMP be updated and re-certified every five years. The SSMP was updated in March 2019 and must be re-certified and submitted to the State by May 1, 2019. The Water Department will request that City Council, by resolution, delegate authority to the Board of Public Utilities to approve future SSMP re-certifications. Delegating appro | approved | Pass |
