In May 2006, the State Water Resources Control Board published its General Waste Discharge Requirements (GWDR) for Sanitary Sewer Systems (Sanitary Sewer Order 2006-003).  The intent of the GWDR is to improve sewer collection system maintenance and performance, in order to minimize the number and impact of sanitary sewer overflows throughout the State.   One of the requirements of the GWDR is the development of a Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP).  

The SSMP will cover the management, planning, design, and operation and maintenance of the City’s sanitary sewer system.  The City has secured the services of engineering consulting firm, RMC Water and Environment, to develop its SSMP.   The development process began in September 2007 and it is expected to be complete by Mid-2008.
