be refined with input from the watershed teams and current data. To date, 51,000 acres in the combined sewer area (50%)
have been investigated resulting in smoke testing of 1,230 miles of sewer and inspection of 42,200 manholes. The I/I efforts
are anticipated to continue until FY2013 and provide a basis for planning, design, and construction that will occur for many
years thereafter. The selected consultant has the flexibility and responsive project team that can adapt the I/I program goals
to the regulatory issues and field conditions encountered. The I/I consultant will use state-of-the-art methods and technology
to efficiently identify, quantify, and report I/I sources within the sewer system. The I/I consultant will work in concert with the
District’s staff, planning consultant, other I/I consultant, and specialized service vendors to accomplish project goals of
substantial I/I reduction. The I/I consultant will assist in the strategy of preparing for the pending SSO rule, CSO LTCP and
program, and CMOM impacts. Also, the consultant has provided field investigations in the Quincy, 13th Street, and Dale
Citysheds to support pre-design studies.
For FY2010, RJN completed smoke testing of 208 miles of sewer (110% of goal), inspected 6,500 manholes (125% of goal),
assessed 4,000 connections (100% of goal) and completed 39 reports (108% of goal).
The FY2011 authorization includes $500,000 (the same as FY2010 funding) for the investigation of critical sewers to
proactively address potential sewer collapse in locations of high risk. Based on the Cityshed team’s recommendations,
critical sewers include large diameter and brick sewers crossing major roadways and railroad right-of-ways. The approach
will be to assess their condition through manhole and sewer CCTV inspections, then use the information to plan rehabilitation
as needed and establish a long-term reinspection program.
Contracted planning resources utilized: Watershed Facility Planning, Combine Sewer Area Flow Metering & Monitoring,
Separate Sewer Area Flow Metering & Monitoring, Modeling, CCTV Inspection, Radar Rainfall Data, and General Services
Surveying.

This ordinance transfers $300,000 from the Missouri River Bonfils OMCI (#590) to the Sanitary Replacement Fund (#660),
appropriates additional funds, and authorizes the District to enter into Amendment No. 3 with Woolpert Consultants, Inc.
This appropriation will allow Woolpert to continue investigation of sewer systems to identify inflow/infiltration (I/I) problems.
With the FY2011 appropriation, Woolpert will perform the following investigations under the guidance of the SSO watershed
teams:
• Smoke test and evaluate a total of approximately 370 miles of sewers
• Inspect and evaluate approximately 11,000 manholes
• It is anticipated that 1,000 connections to the system will be investigated
• Review CCTV data for the I/I areas
• Review flowmeter data for quantifying wet weather flows
• Approximately 24 data reports will be submitted for use by MSD staff, SSO Watershed Teams, CSO LTCP Team,
Operations and design consultants

The consultant will use the data from the above efforts to identify, quantify and recommend initial improvements or
rehabilitation solutions to eliminate or reduce inflow/infiltration entering into the sewer system. In addition to I/I data
deliverables, the consultant will develop GIS based project deliverables in association with District staff. Consultant will
provide assistance to the SSO watershed teams, District staff design projects, contracted consultant design projects, and
other District Departments as needed. This contract was solicited assuming work would proceed for four years through

beginning in FY2004. Identification of priority areas with high potential for I/I reduction and CIRP project impact continues to
be refined with input from the watershed teams and current data. To date, 59,200 acres in the separate sewer area (32.3%)
have been investigated resulting in smoke testing of 1,410 miles of sewer and inspection of 42,300 manholes. The I/I efforts

For FY2010, Woolpert completed smoke testing of 324 miles of sewer (94.5% of goal), inspected 11,500 manholes (120% of
goal), and completed 30 reports (125% of goal).
The FY2011 authorization includes $300,000 to complete the investigation of sewers in the Missouri River Bonfils OMCI and
identify sewer rehabilitation projects. Sewer rehabilitation was identified by the Bonfils Watershed Team as a watershed
priority to meet the goal of reducing peak flows to the Bonfils pump station and Missouri WWTP.
