Project Title:
Farmdale SD Interceptor Sewer System Phase I

Project Description:
The Farmdale Sanitation District has acquired ownership of seven (7) previously private wastewater systems that had a long history of poor performance, compliance issues and violations. In an effort to provide customers with safe and reliable sanitary sewer service, Farmdale proposes to design and construct an interceptor sewer system that is intended to eliminate six (6) of the outdated and potentially failing package WWTPs and collect the wastewater flow from those subdivisions down to a single large pump station which will then convey the sewer flow to the City of Frankfort's wastewater system for treatment. The package WWTP's to be eliminated serve the Coolbrook, Edgewood, Farmdale, Farmgate, Meadowbrook and Edgewood Subdivisions. In total, this project will benefit approximately 834 customers. The project includes approximately 13,800 LF of gravity sewer, 38,000 LF of force main, four pump stations, and a 2,000,000 million gallon wet weather detention basin, as well as the decommissioning of six (6) package WWTPs. There will be no rehab/replacement of any existing sewers. The only item that will be rehabbed is the Highwood Pump Station.

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 package WWTPs involved in this project are well beyond their useful lifespan and are a constant source of operation and maintenance difficulties and expense. The majority of the facilities have a long history of non-compliance and were allowed to fall into a state of disrepair by their previous owners. The lack of reliable and safe sanitary sewer service is a hindrance to growth in southern Franklin County and the completion of this project will serve as an economic growth driver for all of Franklin County.

Project Alternatives:

Alternate A:

Note: If project includes the construction of a new treatment plant or upgrade to existing plant, please explain regionalization options here.

Construct a new WWTP in the Farmdale area

Alternate B:

Construct multiple new package WWTPs to replace the failing existing ones.

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:

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

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

Energy Efficiency:

Energy efficiency is the use of improved technologies and practices to reduce the energy consumption of water projects, use energy in a more efficient way, and/or produce/utilize renewable energy. Examples include:

Component		Cost
Item 1:	Renewable energy projects such as wind, solar, geothermal, and micro-hydroelectric, and biogas combined heat and power systems that provide power to a POTW.
Item 2:	POTW-owned renewable energy projects.
Item 3:	Collection system infiltration/inflow (I/I) detection equipment.
Item 4:	POTW energy management planning, including energy assessments, energy audits, optimization studies, and sub-metering of individual processes to determine high energy use areas

Item 9:	Replacing old motors with premium energy efficiency motors.*
Item 10:	Upgrade of POTW lighting to energy efficient sources.*
Item 11:	SCADA systems where substantial energy savings can be demonstrated.*
Item 12:	Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) controllers where substantial energy savings can be demonstrated.*
Total Cost:

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

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

Environmentally Innovative Projects:

Environmentally innovative projects include those that demonstrate new and/or innovative approaches to delivering services or managing water resources in a more sustainable way. Examples include:

Component		Cost
Item 1:	Total integrated water resources management planning likely to result in a capital project.

Item 10:	POTW upgrades or retrofits that remove phosphorus for beneficial use, such as biofuel production with algae.*
Item 11:	Projects that significantly reduce or eliminate the use of chemicals in wastewater treatment.*
Item 12:	Treatment technologies that significantly reduce the volume of residuals, generation of residuals, or lower the amount of chemicals in the residuals.*
Item 13:	Educational activities and demonstration projects for water or energy efficiency.*
