Council OKs $48,000 contract with AECOM to investigate and seek closure of SSO 306
Summary
Ordinance 50-26 authorizes a contract with AECOM (not to exceed $48,000) for hydraulic modeling and an EPA-directed closure investigation of sanitary sewer overflow site SSO 306; the measure passed with one abstention.
Rocky River approved Ordinance 50-26 on July 27 to hire AECOM Technical Services (contract not to exceed $48,000) to perform hydraulic modeling and a closure investigation for sanitary sewer overflow (SSO) site SSO 306.
Mr. Moran said this work is "an exciting time" because it will allow the City to close another of the original 12 SSO locations. He noted previous sewer repairs made the site ready for investigation and that the effort will proceed at the direction of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Council approved the ordinance with five ayes and one abstention (Havemann abstained).
The modeling will support an EPA-directed closure process for SSO 306 and follows prior sewer repairs and related capital work, according to remarks recorded at the meeting.
