The following data was collected in a survey of 78 communities neighboring the Long Island Sound. The Village is responsible for maintaining all sewer lines up to the point where they cross private property lines. A new chlorine feed system project was completed in 1996. Sanitary sewers are not combined with the stormwater collection system, but there is some infiltration into the sanitary sewer system from illicit hook-ups such as residential sump pumps and leaders from roofs.
Reports also indicate minimal infiltration from manhole covers.
This proposal aims to minimize adverse impacts of hypoxia caused by human activities in a cost-effective manner. No further information was provided.
