City of Morgan Hill Sewer System Master Plan 2017

intended to serve as a tool for planning and phasing the construction of future sewer system infrastructure for the projected buildout of the City of Morgan Hill. The area and horizon for the master plan is stipulated in the City’s General Plan. Should planning conditions change, and depending on their magnitude, adjustments to the master plan recommendations might be necessary. This master plan included the following tasks: x Summarize the City’s existing sanitary sewer system facilities. x Document growth planning assumptions and known future developments. x Summarize the sewer system performance criteria and design storm event. x Project future sewer flows. x Develop and calibrate a new hydraulic model based on the City’s Geographic Information Systems (GIS). x Evaluate the adequacy of capacity for the sanitary sewer system facilities to meet existing and projected peak dry weather flows and peak wet weather flows. x Recommend a capital improvement program (CIP) with an opinion of probable construction costs. x Perform a capacity allocation analysis for cost sharing purposes between existing users and future growth. x Develop a 2017 Sewer System Master Plan Report. 1.3 INTEGRATED APPROACH TO MASTER PLANNING This City implemented an integrated master planning approach and contracted the services of Akel Engineering Group to prepare the following documents:

x Water System Master Plan x Sewer System Master Plan

x Storm Drainage System Master Plan x Morgan Hill-Gilroy Joint Trunk Study

While each of these reports is published as a standalone document, it has been coordinated for consistency with the City’s Gener al Plan document. Additionally, each document has been cross referenced to reflect relevant analysis results with the other documents. 1.4 RELEVANT REPORTS The City has completed several special studies intended to evaluate localized growth. These reports were referenced and used during this capacity analysis. The following lists relevant reports
