The deterioration of the physical condition of aging sewer systems along with increasing regulatory control of wet weather overflows has resulted in a significant need for rehabilitation of existing collection systems. Sanitary collection systems play a critical role in protecting human health and the environment. Sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) result when these systems fail, posing health and environmental risks.
One of the most important and challenging elements to reducing or eliminating sanitary sewer overflows is condition assessment, including an effective sanitary sewer evaluation survey (SSES). Condition assessment seeks to locate and characterize specific defects or inadequacies of the sewer system and quantify them in terms of contributing to overflow and/or backup problems. Condition assessment sets the critical basis for selecting and implementing the specific rehabilitation measures designed to reduce infiltration/inflow (I/I), repair structural defects, regain or increase hydraulic capacity, and prioritize a rehabilitation plan in a cost-effective manner.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Identify methods used to locate sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs).
- Describe techniques and methods for assessing and quantifying sources of inflow and infiltration.
- Identify the equipment and instrumentation used for sewer condition assessment.
- Recognize conditions that cause or worsen sewer deterioration.
- Describe sewer rehabilitation techniques and materials, including trenchless technology.
- Select an appropriate technology for a sewer system replacement or rehabilitation project to help reduce overflows, restore structural integrity, and restore capacity.
- Explain solutions for sanitary sewer overflows.
Certificate of Completion
You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 30 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
