Session Overview Dos and Don’t will be shown with theoretical or real
examples. Based on most common problems in CWNS 2008. Most for traditional centralized collection and
treatment. I will answer questions as they are asked. Will have some time at the end for questions related to
dos and don’ts not related to the ones presented.

Location

Do: Enter a street address.Don’t: Enter a PO Box.

PopulationDo: Enter population for collection systems.Don’t: Try to enter population for treatment plants.
Treatment Plants have population automatically populated by the DEP based on the population from upstream collection systems.

PopulationDo: All population entered should be real data.Don’t: Enter population placeholders. (e.g., 1, 2)
Need for population placeholders are usually an indication of other technical problems with the facility.
New facility types should eliminate the need for placeholders.

FlowDo: Keep present design and projected design flows the
same unless there is a change of increase capacity.Don’t: Make the future design flow less than the present
design.Exception: We have seen facilities’ excess capacity being
retrofitted for nutrient control. This would require a change of increase level of treatment.

DischargeDo: Make collection systems discharge to treatment
facilities, other collection systems, or interceptors.Don’t: Try to make collection systems discharge to
surface water, evaporation, etc.Don’t: Make on-site systems discharge to surface waters.
(Hint: discharge method for on-site systems is NOT required)

Permits
10
Do: Make permit type match facility/project type.Don’t: Assigns stormwater permits to POTWs, and vice
versa .Do: Enter an NPDES permit for all point source
facilities/project with a discharge to waters of the US. (ocean discharge, outfall to surface waters, overland flow with discharge)
Don’t: Enter NPDES permits as state permits.

Costs and Documents
11
Don’t: Run cost curves and document needs for the same category (some exceptions may apply).Allowed: Documented costs for increase capacity and cost
curve for increase level of treatment.Don’t: Run cost curves for needs not justified by documents.
Not allowed: documentation showing a need to correct I/I used to justify running an increase level of treatment cost curve for the treatment plant.

ResourcesCWNS DEP is your best friend.
If the DEP does not allow you to do something there is a good chance there is a technical problem with your facility.
