Review and develop project goals and objectives by conducting a meeting with the City. The meeting will include discussion of items such as the City’s objectives, scope of services, schedule, key project personnel, and project concerns. 2. Review existing data and facilities including the following tasks: a. Obtain influent, effluent, and biosolids data for a minimum of three years. b. Acquire previous reports. c. Analyze the performance of the existing plant and individual unit operations. d. Visit the facilities to identify items that will require upgrades or replacement. 3. Prepare an infiltration/inflow (I/I) analysis to determine the amount and type of I/I. Perform a cost-effectiveness analysis to evaluate the cost of additional plant hydraulic capacity to convey and treat I/I versus typical I/I reduction measures. Determine cost-effective approach and whether I/I is “non-excessive” according to EPA and DNR guidelines. 4. Prepare 10- and 20-year population and flow projections using existing wastewater and population data and population projections from SEWRPC and Wisconsin DOA. 5. Prepare and send industrial surveys to determine future capacity needs. Review existing industrial monitoring test results as provided by the City to obtain current baseline loading levels. Revise loading projections with information obtained from the industrial survey. 6. Correspond with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources to develop effluent limits as appropriate for the projected wastewater flows.
