Purpose & Explanation
Since 2004, the City of Hudson has completed a number of significant capital improvements and maintenance projects throughout the sanitary sewer system including sewer manhole rehabilitation, sanitary sewer lining and sewer replacement projects. As a result, an updated, comprehensive study is necessary to determine the City's next course of action in an effort to close its two current sanitary sewer overflows and eliminate the Ohio EPA's consent order to Hudson. The focus of the study will be to provide accurate flow metering data for dry and wet weather through the trunk system, create a new computer model, calibration of wet weather events in the model, and analysis of the new data. The study will then be used to identify areas of the system that require further detailed studying, future capital improvements and/or areas requiring more rehabilitation to remove inflow and infiltration (I & I).
