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. 

• 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?
