Wastewater Operations
(continued)
FY 14-15 HIGHLIGHTS
Flushing: Increased time spent flushing mains with video review workflow in place, which provided flushing crews
with an understanding of their cleaning effectiveness
Inspection: Purchased state-of-the art camera and mobile video center, improving in flushing techniques and
identifying defects in the larger sewer mains – a task made possible by the equipping crews with the appropriate
equipment
Repairs: Increased internal point repairs and pipeline improvements by utilizing advanced materials and
techniques, most notably the area of internal repair patching which make repairs less costly and enable crews to
perform a greater number of repairs
H-Lift Station Rebuilt: Lift station difficult to maintain due to design of the wet well. This is an older lift station
that has reached the end of its life cycle. The lift station rebuild is part of the overall ongoing maintenance and
replacement program for all the City’s lift stations
