Project Title:
Frankfort Sewer Department FSD Prevention Park Pump Station Replacement

Project Description:
This Project has three primary objectives - the consolidation and decommissioning of (4) existing small pump stations, offloading flow from sewers susceptible to SSO's (and the sewers located in the area of the recent rock slide that has destabilized the 30" sewer) and providing additional system capacity to accommodate the future receipt of the Farmdale Sewer District wastewater flows. The Heritage, Prevention Park, Hospital, and Twilight Trail Pump Stations are existing duplex pump station in the West Frankfort drainage area that will be eliminated as a part of this project. These pump stations are relatively small, in close proximity to one another, and have exceeded their useful lives. By eliminating these pump stations and their associated force mains, the Westgate Interceptor, which is shown to be at, or above capacity based on modeling, will have capacity restored. These pump stations are proposed to be combined into a single pump station near the existing Twilight Trail Pump Station. The new pump station will be sized to accommodate the existing flows to the four (4) pump stations to be eliminated; as well as flow diverted from a fifth pump station, Twin Oaks as well as current and future sanitary sewer flows from the Farmdale Sewer District. The force main for the consolidated pump station will extend approximately 27,000 feet from the new pump station site to their termination point at the flow control structure at Benson Avenue and Kentucky Avenue. In correspondence with pump station, the force mains will be sized to handle current flows from FSD and Farmdale, as well as future flows. In addition, the existing West Frankfort Pump Station force main and Pea Ridge force main, both previously discharging into a 30" interceptor susceptible to SSO's and under an Emergency Deceleration by the City of Frankfort following the events of a landslide, will be connected to the proposed force main system. The new force mains will alleviate existing capacity issues in this interceptor due to the fact that they are diverting flows from the four (4) aforementioned pump stations being decommissioned, as well as, flows from the West Frankfort and Pea Ridge Pump Stations.

Need For Project: Briefly describe how this project promotes public health or achieves and/or maintains compliance with the Clean Water Act or Safe Drinking Water Act:
The project is multifaceted and thus has multiple needs. The needs addressed by this project are listed below: • Provide connection for future elimination of old package wastewater treatment plants in the Farmdale Wastewater System that experience Notices of Violation (NOVs) on a regular basis. The proposed pump station and corresponding force mains will enable Farmdale to connect to the Frankfort Sewer Department system. This project relieves aging pump stations and mitigates an existing capacity issue at one of the smaller pump stations. • The West Frankfort force main extension is needed not only to allow the increased capacity required for the future Farmdale flows, but to also provide relief to the existing interceptor passing through the Buttimer Hill Basin. The existing interceptor is currently at capacity and occasionally experiences SSOs.

Green Infrastructure:

Green stormwater infrastructure includes a wide array of practices at multiple scales that manage wet weather and that maintains and restores natural hydrology by infiltrating, evapotranspiring and harvesting and using stormwater. On a regional scale, green infrastructure is the preservation and restoration of natural landscape features, such as forests, floodplains, and wetlands, coupled with policies such as infill and redevelopment that reduce overall imperviousness in a watershed. On the local scale, green infrastructure consists of site and neighborhood-specific practices, such as:

Component		Cost
Item 1:	Implementation of green streets.
Item 2:	Wet Weather management systems for parking areas.
Item 3:	Implementation of comprehensive urban forestry programs.
Item 4:	Stormwater harvesting and reuse.
Item 5:	Downspout disconnection.
Item 6:	Comprehensive retrofit programs designed to keep wet weather discharges out of sewer systems.
Item 7:	Establishment or restoration of riparian buffers, floodplains, wetlands or other natural features.
Item 8:	Management of wetlands.
Item 9:	Purchase of land or easements on land that has a direct benefit to water quality.
Total Cost:

* Indicates a business case may be required for this item.

If any box(es) above are checked, please describe each below.

Water Efficiency:

The use of improved technologies and practices to deliver equal or better services with less water. Water efficiency encompasses conservation and reuse efforts, as well as water loss reduction and prevention, to protect water resources for the future. Examples include:

Component		Cost
Item 1:	Installing or retrofitting water efficient devices such as plumbing fixtures and appliances (toilets, showerheads, urinals).
Item 2:	Installing any type of water meter in previously unmetered areas (can include backflow prevention if in conjunction with meter replacement).
Item 3:	Replacing existing broken/malfunctioning water meters with AMR or smart meters, meters with leak detection, backflow prevention
Item 4:	Retrofitting/Adding AMR capabilities or leak equipment to existing meters.
Item 5:	Developing water audit and conservation plans, which are reasonably expected to result in a capital project.
Item 6:	Recycling and water reuse projects that replace potable sources with non-potable sources (Gray water, condensate, and wastewater effluent reuse systems, extra treatment or distribution costs associated with water reuse).
Item 7:	Retrofit or replacement of existing landscape irrigation/agricultural systems to more efficient landscape/agricultural irrigation systems (rain and moisture sensing equipment)
Item 8:	Water meter replacement with traditional water meters.*
Item 9:	Projects that result from a water audit or water conservation plan.*
Item 10:	Storage tank replacement/rehabilitation to reduce water loss.*
Item 11:	New water efficient landscape/agricultural irrigation system, where there currently is not one.*
Total Cost:

FSD's sewer system has a three part CIP management system including asset management plan, integrated GIS, and Lucity (an electronic reporting, and documentation system) for logging repair and replacement work within the sanitary collection system. Using these three systems FSD annually prioritizes the mapped collection systems areas that are likely to fail or in high need of replacement. After a analysis of high priority (highest risk of failure) is completed, the identified projects are planned, funds are allocated in the annual budget for each project, and the projects are completed.
