Abstract
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has identified a need to use proven methodologies to develop computer tools that help communities properly characterize rainfall-derived infiltration and inflow (RDII) into sanitary sewer systems and develop sanitary sewer overflow (SSO) control plans. To accomplish this goal, the USEPA entered into a cooperative research and development agreement (CRADA) in 2003 with a technology partner — Camp Dresser & McKee (CDM) Inc. — to develop a public-domain Sanitary Sewer Overflow Analysis and Planning (SSOAP) Toolbox. The CRADA also prepared a technical guide for analyzing RDII, performing capacity analyses of sanitary sewer systems, and developing SSO control plans using the toolbox. This paper describes the CRADA outcomes and individual tools in the SSOAP Toolbox to perform capacity analyses of sanitary sewer systems and develop SSO control plans.
