System Plan<br />

• Wastewater wet weather plan focused on<br />

system-wide overflow control and<br />

reduction of wastewater system I/I.<br />

• See Volume 1 Appendix F for additional<br />

details<br />

• Master plan integrating compliance,<br />

growth and asset renewal for the<br />

treatment and collection systems of the<br />

urban core and small systems.<br />

• Integrates Wet Weather System Plan<br />

• Should include ERAs and necessary<br />

biosolids and hauled waste studies<br />

• Planning of capacity and asset renewal<br />

requirements/improvements to the<br />

components of the stormwater system<br />

owned and operated by <strong>Halifax</strong> Water<br />

• This plan should be carried out in<br />

conjunction with HRM to ideally prepare<br />

an overall Stormwater System Master Plan<br />

• Overflow compliance program (existing)<br />

• I/I reduction program (existing/new)<br />

including SIR program<br />

• RWWFP (existing)<br />

• IRP Enhanced Overflow Control Program<br />

(new)<br />

• Asset renewal (enhanced)<br />

• Energy Management (existing)<br />

• SCADA (existing)<br />

• Climate change impact assessment (new)<br />

• Wet Weather System Plan supported by<br />

sewer model used to evaluate collection<br />

system capacity and operation and<br />

support planning of overflow control<br />

alternatives. Model will require on-going<br />

refinement and further calibration.<br />
