On January 26, ICLR held a Friday Forum webinar title 'Urban Rainfall: Assessing climate change and extreme rainfall events' led by Andrew Wiens, Senior Water Resources Engineer at Associated Engineering.
Extreme rainfall and the anticipated effects of climate change pose a significant urban flood risk. Recently, the City of Surrey engaged Associated Engineering to develop numerical models for evaluating flooding from rainfall events and for estimating economic losses due to flooding. This study also examined the anticipated changes to rainfall patterns as a result of climate change and evaluated several potential methods for mitigating flood damage to private property. This presentation covered the following information:
1. Sources of Urban Flooding;
2. Urban Flood Risk Importance;
3. Risk Assessment Components:
a. Estimating rainfall and runoff amounts
b. Estimating water levels and flood extents
c. Estimating economic losses due to flooding;
4. Case Study: City of Surrey’s Climate Change Rainfall Adaptation Strategy.
Andrew Wiens, Senior Water Resources Engineer, provides technical leadership and specialist hydro-technical expertise for Associated Engineering projects across Western Canada. Andrew specializes in hydraulic analysis and economic flood risk assessment of urban drainage infrastructure during extreme rainfall events and climate change. Andrew has been analyzing large-scale urban stormwater systems using dual drainage models for over 10 years. As part of this work, he has developed credible methods for estimating surface flooding extents and flood routing during extreme rainfall events. In addition, Andrew has developed methods for quantification of economic damage to private property as a result of flood damage due to rainfall, river-based flooding and dam breach analysis.
This was a presentation regarding how multi-use greenways can be designed and constructed with no adverse impact to the 100-yr floodplain. I co-presented this at the 2005 conference of the Association of State Floodplain Managers.

This gives an overview of improvements and new construction taking place on the ground of the East Park Reservoir. PWD will be embarking on a multi-year project at this location which will include the construction of new water tanks, and some general facility upgrades and additional sight improvements.
On Saturday, January 11th, at approximately 4:30 a.m., the Philadelphia Water Department (PWD) was alerted to a failure on a 48” transmission main in the parking lot of Baker’s Centre, a shopping plaza at 3400 Fox Street. The broken pipe was shut down at approximately 6:20 a.m. For more information on this break and subsequent repair, please visit www.phillywatersheds.org/alerts
These photos were taken at the site of a large diameter water main break that occurred on Monday, December 27 in the lower northeast Philadelphia. These photos were taking on January 4 and January 8. On the 4th, crews placed shoring in the trench. This allows them to work safely in the trench. On January 8, crews removed the broken section of main which will be analyzed to determine the cause of the break. Updates on this project can be found at http://www.phillywatersheds.org/alerts
This slideshow was presented on August 22 at the Shilough Baptist Church at a community meeting hosted by Councilman Kenyatta Johnson. Community members were encouraged to come and ask questions, voice concerns and learn more about the massive main break that has caused significant damage and disruption. Representatives from PWD, PECO, Streets Department, PGW, Verizon, and other City agencies were in attendance.
PWD is replacing sewer infrastructure along 3rd Street in Old City from Chestnut Street to Market Street. The sewer line being replaced was installed in the 1850’s and began to fail in October 2011. During initial repairs, further damage was discovered requiring additional work including the replacement of several sections. This project includes:
• Replacement of 1850s sewer on 3rd Street from Market Street to Elbow Lane
• Lining of existing sewer on 3rd Street from Elbow Lane to Chestnut Street
• Replacement or relocation of PGW and PECO infrastructure

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

16. PWD- Analysis- Source of Runoff
Drainage Area to Spring Lane is approximately 25
Acres
20. Summary of Observations:
PWD’s installation of storm sewers/inlets in
Manatawna Avenue, Hendren Street and Spring
Lane will provide control of stormwater from city
streets and public rights-of-way, however, runoff
from private property, driveways and roof tops will
need to be directed and connected to this
infrastructure.
21. Manatawna Stormwater Improvements
Inlets can be added in Manatawna to intercept this
street runoff
HOWEVER, this represents only a small fraction of
the total land area currently contributing to
Hendren and Spring flooding.
22. PWD Analysis: Runoff Path
Yards
Hendren Street
Colonial Swale and Yards
Residences
Low Point in Spring (Damaged Storm pipe and
Headwall)
28. PWD Analysis: Significant Runoff
Generators
Surface Character affects the amount of runoff
Impervious Surface like roofs, drives, streets and walks
prohibit infiltration of stormwater. Nearly 100%
Runoff
Pervious, Vegetated Surfaces absorb some runoff,
however runoff still occurs, especially in more intense
storms
30. Public vs. Private Runoff Generators
Runoff from streets and public rights-of-way
2.3 Acres or 9%
Yards, roofs and driveways
18.5 acres + 4 Acres = 22.5 Acres or 91%
31. Sanitary Sewer Service
Existing Sanitary Challenges
Of the respondents to the survey, 62% indicated that their
existing septic system was only in “fair” or “poor”
condition
32. Sanitary Sewer Design Considerations
Spring Lane
South side of Spring served by a standard depth
gravity sewer.
A new pump station will require acquisition of additional
right-of-way
33. Sanitary Sewer Design Considerations
Hendren Street
South side residents (uphill) can be served by standard
depth (8-feet Separate) sewers
North side residents (downhill) are below standard depth
sewers
37. PWD Stormwater Remedies:
Construction of a Storm Sewer pipe and inlet system
in public rights of way is possible
Will provide for safe conveyance of captured runoff
Will fortify repair of damaged Spring Lane outfall and
protect forcemain
38. Actions Required beyond PWD’s
Proposed Stormwater Remedies:
Doesn’t Solve the Entire Problem
Requires that private property runoff be redirected to
intercept 100% of runoff
Will not resolve homeowner flooding emanating from
private property runoff
42. PWD Sanitary Sewer Remedies:
Construction of Sanitary Sewer and Pump station is
possible
Will provide alternative to replacement of failing
septic systems
Requires additional efforts to provide service to entire
neighborhood
Downslope properties that have plumbing discharge below
street level may need to install ejector/grinder pumps

Councilperson
City Council Ordinance is required for a public
sewer
Process from Ordinance to construction can take a
few years
59. Impact to Customers
Each property owner is assessed at the rate of
$9.00 per linear foot of property frontage
Plumbing which drains to the back of the house
needs to be redirected to the front of the house
(PWD has zero interest loans available)
