How they work:
Regulating structures
allow excess stormwater
to overflow



                                 Overflow pipe




                     Side-spill weir

Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO)
Netting facility, floatable debris from
combined sewer overflow

Project background
• Control CSO overflows
• Consolidate existing regulators
• Provide relief for up to a 5-year, 6-hour
  storm event
• Convey flow to current interceptor, future
  tunnel
• Prepare for future 17’ Doan Valley Tunnel


   11
By the numbers

• 11,000 feet
 3’ to 6’ sewers in tunnel
• 2,700 feet
  15” to 7’ sewers in open-cut
• Plus structures, regulators, and
  modifications
