December Luncheon Meeting
Topic: Blueprint Clintonville Integrated Solutions Project
Pilot Area Technical Committee (PATC) - Approach and Interim Findings in Columbus, Ohio
(Online registration and payment available, see bottom of page.)
The City of Columbus, Department of Public Utilities, Division of Sewerage and Drainage (the City) has embarked upon its approved Wet-Weather Management Plan (WWMP). Currently, that plan is almost entirely comprised of a series of treatment plant capacity upgrades, storage tanks, tunnels, and other piping system augmentations; collectively known as “gray” infrastructure. After approval of the WWMP, the use of more renewable, sustainable, and environmentally friendly systems, commonly referred to as “green” infrastructure, has been recognized and implemented in many communities as a potential solution to many of the elements associated with consent order requirements.
Recently, the City received approval from Ohio EPA to delay many elements of the WWMP so the City can investigate whether it can meet the WWMP goals and future stormwater regulations with green infrastructure and I&I control on public and private property. The solution is known as the Integrated Solution (IS). The City is proceeding forward with the pilot for this Integrated Solutions approach in the Clintonville neighborhood.
This presentation will discuss the efforts of the Pilot Area Technical Committee (PATC) charged with developing and refining the project objectives, as well as the methodology and logistical challenges of achieving these goals.
