Spokane River Forum 26 May 2013
Spokane’s CSO Reduction Status
Spokane’s Primary Treatment Plant
Interceptor Sewers for Dry Weather Flows
RPWRF
CSO
CSO Regulator is an Overflow Threshold – e.g. “Leaping Weir”
How do combined sewers work?
Treatment Plant
wastewater
CSO Regulator
stormwater
Annually, most combined sewage gets treated
Combined Sewage
Wastewater Flow
Time
Flow
Overflow Threshold
Overflows to River
Treated at RPWRF
CSO Reduction HistoryBaselineas of 1980
33 outfalls
1000 average CSOs / year
550 avg million gallons / yr
CSO Reduction HistoryPhase 11980s storm separation 86% volume reduction 24 outfalls
450 average CSOs / year
80 avg million gallons / yr
CSO Regulations
Chapter 173-245 WAC:Frequency:
“… control of each CSO such that an average of one untreated discharge may occur per year.”
– Applied to each outfall
Water Quality:
“CSOs shall not violate water quality standards in receiving waters (numeric standards or the beneficial uses).”
CSO Reduction HistoryPhase 2Storage Tanks by 2012 for overflow frequency
20 outfalls
280 average CSOs / year
70 avg million gallons / yr

Weir Mods provide:
Less dry weather plugging
More response time
Improved monitoring
CSO Reduction HistoryIntegrated PlanRevised approach
Prioritize CSO volume reduction
Compliance: 20-year vs. 5-year
