EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
ES.1 Introduction
The City of Renton (City) is updating its Long‐Range Wastewater Management Plan (LRWWMP)
to provide a road map for redevelopment while maintaining a high level of service for existing
customers. The existing system is aging and will continue to require investment to maintain a
high level of service. The LRWWMP is intended to provide the City with a "living" plan that can
be used and adapted to assist in decision making for the next ͮͬ years.
This LRWWMP was prepared in accordance with requirements of Washington Administrative
Code (WAC) ͭͳͯ‐ͮͰͬ‐ͬͱͬ, which is administered by the Washington State Department of
Ecology (Ecology), and meets the requirements of the Washington Growth Management
Act (GMA).
This chapter presents the objectives of this LRWWMP, and a brief overview of the City’s
wastewater collection system. A list of abbreviations is provided in the Table of Contents to
assist the reader in understanding the information presented in this LRWWMP.
ES.2 Overview of Existing Sewer System
Chapter ͮ – Overview of Existing Sewer System provides a description of the City’s existing
collection system and an inventory of the City’s assets. The City's collection system consists of
approximately ͮͰͳ miles of gravity sewer, Ͳ.ʹ miles of force mains, and ͮͬ pump stations that
collect and convey wastewater to King County’s (KC) Interceptors. These interceptors convey the
City’s flow to the KC owned and operated South Treatment Plant.
Each pump station is described in this chapter to provide framework for the condition
assessment and any related Capital Improvement Program project. Additionally, other
components of the system are broken down such as materials and diameters of the total gravity
sewer system. The City's collection system is shown in Figure ES.ͭ.
ES.3 Operational Policies and Criteria
Polices and criteria regulate the manner that the City operates and plans for its future. The City's
policies and criteria are detailed in the Renton Municipal Code, the Comprehensive Plan, City
ordinance, and through adoption of this and other plans. The following policies and criteria are
summarized in Chapter ͯ – Operational Policies and Criteria:
Customer Service Objective.
Planning Objective.
Service Area Extension Objectives.

ES.4 Planning Considerations
Chapter Ͱ – Planning Considerations and Technical Memorandum (TM) ͭ describe the City’s land
use policies and demographic projections that are used to develop future wastewater flow
projections. The City's land use policies and sewer system are connected with adjacent sewer
systems' policies and systems including the KC interceptors and serving small areas of Kent and
Tukwila. Existing land use provides the basis for designing properly sized sewage facilities,
including trunks, interceptors, and lift stations. In most cases the City's sewers are downstream,
or at the receiving end of the effluent, from the systems adjacent to the City. Therefore, proper
planning for the City's sewers requires that the plans of these adjacent utilities be evaluated.
In addition to adjacent utility plans, the land use plans and policies of KC and the Growth
Management Planning Council (GMPC) were also considered. As discussed below, the entire
planning area is within the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) established by the GMPC. The City
supports the countywide framework policies (F‐ͮͱͱ and F‐ͭͬͮ) that call for the designated Urban
Area to be served with sanitary sewers and prefers cities as the provider of sewer services. The
entire study area has been designated Urban by the ͮͬͭͮ King County Comprehensive Plan with
ͮͬͭͯ Amendments.
Two planning periods are evaluated in this LRWWMP:
Existing system.
Build‐out.
The existing system is defined as the ͮͬͭͮ sanitary flows calibrated with ͮͬͭʹ flow data.
Currently, build‐out is projected at ͮͬͰͬ. Evaluations are performed for both average dry
weather flow (ADWF) and peak wet weather flows (PWWF). A summary of the modeled total
ADWF and PWWF flows for metered basins, for each planning period is shown in Table ES.ͭ.

Note:
Abbreviation: mgd – million gallons per day.
ES.5 System Analysis and Results
As growth occurs, additional customer flows can exceed sewer capacity. Future growth is
anticipated and is modeled through the existing hydraulic model of the collection system. The
model was used as a basis to perform a capacity analysis. Based on the severity of the
deficiencies identified, the most probable cause and the location, four types of
recommendations were developed to mitigate or confirm these problem areas:
Additional long‐term depth monitoring.
Infiltration and Inflow (I/I) Evaluation: Micro‐monitoring for areas with elevated I/I.
Piping reconfiguration.
Programmatic upsizing.

ES.5.1 Hydraulic Modeling Overview
The City’s collection system hydraulic model was constructed using a multi‐step process utilizing
data from a variety of sources. The latest version (ͮͬͭͲ) of Danish Hydraulic Institute’s (DHI)
Mike Urban was used to update the hydraulic model. The City conducted temporary flow
monitoring to gain a better understanding of flows in the service area and calibrate hydraulic
model predicted flows to actual collection system flows. Additional information on the modeling
calibration is provided in Appendix H, TM ͮ.
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
ES‐Ͳ |JULY ͮͬͮͮ | FINAL
ES.5.2 Capacity Criteria
The primary criterion used to identify capacity‐deficient trunk sewers was the maximum flow
depth to pipe diameter ratio (d/D) less than or equal to one. The d/D value is defined as the
depth (d) of flow in a pipe during peak flow conditions divided by the pipe’s diameter (D).
ES.5.3 Capacity Evaluation
The capacity evaluation was performed for the system, Existing and Build‐out, under
a ͮͬ to ͯͬ year design storm. Sewer improvements were sized to a d/D of ͮ, to prioritize
improvements for the most serious surcharging. For such large design storms much of the
system surcharges and improvements for all surcharging was infeasible.
ES.6 Replacement and Rehabilitation Program
Chapter Ͳ – Replacement & Rehabilitation Program documents the City's prioritized collection
system repair and replacement (R&R) program. R&R prioritization is based on a risk, which
identifies the criticality and vulnerability of an asset. Criticality represents the consequence of
failure, and the vulnerability represents the likelihood of failure. A consistent approach is used to
identify and prioritize force mains, lift stations, and gravity mains.
The risk associated with an asset (pipe, manhole, pump, etc.) is a measure of the impact of asset
failure on the overall system. Risk is calculated as the product of criticality and vulnerability, or:
Risk ൌ Criticality x Vulnerability
Both force mains and lift stations were analyzed together. The criticality, vulnerability, and risk
ratings for each force main and lift station were quantified on a relative risk scale, with one
representing the lowest risk and four representing the highest risk. Each lift station and its
corresponding force main’s calculated risk are shown below in Table ES.ͯ.

ES.7 Operations and Maintenance
Regular Operation and Maintenance (O&M) is required to provide effective and efficient
maintenance services for utility rate payers. Delayed O&M may contribute to adverse sewer
events, including sewer backups, sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs), pipe breaks, etc.
Chapter ͳ – Operations & Maintenance considers the City's existing and planned O&M activities
and programs and provides recommendations to improve existing or address future needs.
These activities are greater than the current level of service; therefore, additional workforce may
be required in the future to meet City goals.
ES.8 Capital Improvement Program
Chapter ʹ – Capital Improvement Program of the LRWWMP assesses the City’s ability to fund
the recommended improvements from Chapter ͱ – System Analysis and Results and
Chapter Ͳ – Replacement and Rehabilitation Program detailed in Tables ES.ͮ, ES.ͯ, and ES.Ͱ.
The projects include a financial status of the sewer utility, funding required to finance the
scheduled improvements, updating the system development charges (SDC), potential funding
sources, and the impacts of sanitary sewer improvements on sewer rates.
To aid in finding individual projects, projects have been separated in sections by facility type:
“LS” = Lift Station.
“P” = Pipeline.
“G” = General.
Figure ES.ͮ displays the various facility types of capital improvement program (CIP) allocation.

ES.9 Financial Analysis
A Wastewater Revenue Requirement Model (WRRM) was conducted in ͮͬͭʹ to analyze the
future finances of the City. The LRWWMP’s CIP differs from the WRRM CIP; therefore, the
LRWWMP analyzed the City’s financial capacity to implement the LRWWMP CIP. This analysis
showed the City has the financial capacity to execute the LRWWMP CIP. Differences between
the ͮͬͭʹ WRRM and LRWWMP CIP timing will create larger drawdowns of the reserve fund in
the coming years, but still remain above the City’s minimum requirements. By ͮͬͮͱ it is expected
that the reserve fund will begin building up again.
The City is not committed to CIP spending summarized in the LRWWMP. Per the City budgeting
policy, the Utility’s spending is based on a biannual budget approved by the City Council. Due to
COVID‐ͭ͵, short term revenue could not be predicted, but it is expected that this will likely not
heavily impact any long‐term analysis. If reductions in revenue persist due to COVID‐ͭ͵ or other
economic factors, then CIP projects may be delayed.

FINAL | JULY 2022 | 1-1
Chapter 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
The purpose of the City of Renton’s (City) Long-Range Wastewater Management
Plan (LRWWMP) is to present policy and an assessment of the system to recommend facility
improvements. The LRWWMP is intended to provide a road map for redevelopment and
maintaining a high level of service for existing customers. The existing system is aging and will
continue to require investment to maintain a high level of service. The LRWWMP is intended to
provide the City with a "living" plan that can be used and adapted to assist in decision making for
the next 20 years, both financially and for infrastructure capacity and condition.
The LRWWMP results from an evaluation of the existing sanitary sewer system which provides
the groundwork for recommendations to resolve existing deficiencies and concerns, as well as
accommodating growth. This chapter presents the objectives of this LRWWMP, and a brief
overview of the City’s wastewater collection system. A list of abbreviations is provided in the
Table of Contents to assist the reader in understanding the information presented in this
LRWWMP.
This LRWWMP and recommended improvements were prepared in accordance with
requirements of Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 173-240-050, which is administered by
the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology), and meets the requirements of the
Washington Growth Management Act (GMA).
1.2 Background and Goals
The City is located in King County (KC), near Seattle, Washington. It is southeast of downtown
Seattle and adjacent to Lake Washington and the Cedar River, as shown in Figure 1.1. The City
owns and operates most of the sewer collection system within the City limits, as well as in nearby
jurisdictions including Kent, Tukwila, and incorporated KC. The City discharges wastewater to
the KC Interceptor where it is conveyed to KC’s South Treatment Plant located in the City.
This LRWWMP is the fourth of plans developed previously in 1992, 1998, and 2010. The
LRWWMP was prepared over six years from 2015 with plans for approval in 2020 but wasn’t
approved till 2022. The LRWWMP provides a recognized framework for making decisions about
Renton’s sanitary sewer service area which includes properties both inside and outside the City
limits. It is intended to aid decision-makers as well as users, including the Wastewater Utility,
City Council members, the Mayor, City staff, builders, developers, community groups, and other
government agencies. The LRWWMP is a useful tool in the following ways:
• As a framework for improvements and operations that govern sanitary sewer system
developments in the Renton Wastewater Utility service area. The LRWWMP provides a
basis for the following:
- Allocating improvements.
- Allocating costs to new sanitary sewer system users.
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 1
1-2 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
• To provide guidelines for improving the existing system to maintain a high quality of
service at a reasonable cost.
• To provide a basis of accommodating changes that occur which can’t be forecasted. To
this end, the LRWWMP lists policy issues and operational criteria that can be used to
developed alternatives and directions for development, improvements, and operations.
1.3 Referenced Documents
This update to the LRWWMP is inspired by the need to provide constant evaluation of the sewer
system and operating policies in order to meet the needs of the customers and to ensure
compatibility with the City’s comprehensive plans.
The following documents were referenced in the preparation of this LRWWMP:
• King County Comprehensive Plan 2016 (King County, Updated October 2018).
Establishes an overall direction for land use planning in KC. Note, land use used in the
hydraulic modeling was based on the 2012 Plan.
• Criteria for Sewage Works Design (Ecology, 2008). Provides guidance for the design of
municipal sewer systems and est ablishes minimum requirements in the State of
Washington .
• King County Countywide Planning Policies (King County, December 2012 Amended
June 2016 ). Provides framework for comprehensive plans for KC and cities within KC.
• Washington Administrative Code, Title 173. Defines the structure of general sewer
plans.
• Stantec 2015 Model Update Report .
• City of Renton 2010 Long -Range Wastewater Management Plan.
• City of Renton 2015 Comprehensive Plan Amended December 2018.
• King County Board of Health Code and Regulations.
• City of Tukwila 2015 Comprehensive Plan.
• City of Kent 2015 Comprehensive Plan.
1.4 Washington State Requirements
The primary purpose of this LRWWMP is to develop a "living" document that is flexible and can
be readily modified to respond to ongoing redevelopm en t. The major objectives of the
LRWWMP are to identify capacity deficiencies in the wastewater collection system, develop
feasible alternatives to correct these deficiencies, and plan the infrastructure that will serve
future development.
The goals of this LRWWMP, to meet the requirements from the Washington State Criteria for
Sewage Works Design, include:
• Prepare the LRWWMP in compliance with WAC Chapter 173-240-050 .
• Prepare the LRWWMP to be consistent with KC Code 28.84.050 (pages 28-50). The
purpose and need for the proposed plan .
• Consideration of reclaimed water in compliance with RCW 90.48.112.
• Consideration of water conservation measures in compliance with RCW 90.48.495.
Each WAC requirement is detailed in Table 1.1 as well as the location within the plan.

1.6 Key Issues
This LRWWMP addresses the following key issues:
• The need and timing of the replacement of older, deteriorating sanitary sewer facilities
within large, neighborhood-size areas within the City.
• The evaluation of the City’s system capacity to address both system deficiency and
potential development.
• The evaluation of sanitary sewer lift stations and force mains for removal, rehabilitation,
and replacement.
• The City’s Infiltration and Inflow (I/I) program in coordination with the overall KC
program to evaluate options and needs for I/I reduction.
• Review, monitoring, and coordination with the public to eliminate industrial waste and
grease discharges to the sewer system.
• Implementation of recommended improvements by priority which maintains affordable
rates for the system users.
Some of these issues were also addressed during preparations of the 1992, 1998, and 2010
LRWWMP.
1.7 SEPA and Approval Process
A SEPA Checklist has been prepared for this LRWWMP and is presented in App endix A. It is
anticipated that this proposed LRWWMP will not have a probable significant adverse impact on
the environment and that an environmental impact statement (EIS) will not be required.

OVERVIEW OF EXISTING SEWER SYSTEM
2.1 Overview of Existing System
The City of Renton (City) currently provides sanitary sewer service to approximately 25.6 square
miles both inside and outside the City limits. Overall, the City’s collection system contains
approximately 14,000 customer connections. The City’s collection system is municipally owned,
operated, and maintained; the system is managed by the City’s Public Works Department (Public
Works).
The City's collection system consists of approximately 247 miles of gravity mains (1,304,160 feet),
over 6,700 manholes, 5.16 miles (27,433 linear feet [LF]) of force mains (FMs), and 20 lift stations
that collect and convey wastewater to King County’s (KC’s) regional transmission interceptors.
These interceptors convey the City’s flow to the KC owned and operated South Treatment Plant
for treatment.
Figure 2.1 presents the City's existing collection system. A more extensive description and
analysis of the system can be found in Chapter 5 – System Analysis and Results.
2.2 System Components
The purpose of a sanitary sewer is to convey wastewater from its source to a point of treatment.
Since the generation of wastewater can vary considerably, there is seldom any control over the
volume of wastewater that must be conveyed at any particular time. For this reason the sanitary
sewer system is designed to accommodate a wide range of wastewater flow rates.
The best method for conveying wastewater is a gravity sewer system. A gravity sewer system is
made up of collector sewers, which as their name implies, collect the wastewater from the
various sources. These collector sewers then convey the wastewater to interceptor sewers,
which convey it to the point of treatment. The sanitary sewer system must be capable of
transporting all of the constituents of the wastewater stream, which include the suspended
solids, floatable solids and liquid constituents. In general, most of the floating materials are
carried along with the flow stream; however, suspended solids have a tendency to settle out of
the waste stream, unless minimum carrying velocities are achieved. This requires that the
sanitary sewers be constructed with a minimum slope to create a gravity flow that will result in a
velocity that will continuously carry the suspended solids portion of the waste stream.
Another major sewer system component, and typically the most vulnerable, is the sewage lift
station. A lift station is needed when the sanitary sewer system must overcome topographic
restrictions that make it impossible or financially unfeasible to construct a gravity sewer.
However, some lift stations are temporary, used only until the gravity sewer system can be built.

2.3 Wastewater Collection Basins
The City is divided into six major wastewater collection basins and 67 mini-basins illustrated in
Figure 2.2 that consist of one or more model basins. Wastewater basins delineate large areas of
the conveyance system network that ultimately flow to one location, specifically the regional
interceptor running throughout the City's collection system. The basin boundaries almost always
follow topographic features, such as ridge lines, streams, and rivers, and capture each property
contributing flow to the sewer collectors in that basin.
The model basins were developed by KC’s Infiltration and Inflow (I/I) Program for the Renton
Sewer Service Area. These collection basins and model basins would ideally follow the natural
drainage patterns of the City’s service area. However, because of natural and service area
boundaries, the wastewater collection basins do not always follow drainage basins. The six m ajor
basins are: West Cedar River, East Cedar River, East Lake Washington, Black River, Downtown,
and May Valley.
2.3.1 West Cedar River Basin
The West Cedar River Basin includes the eastern portion of the City bordering the Cedar River.
The basin consists of primarily single-family and multi-family developments with some
commercial and light industrial land uses. West Cedar River Basin includes the Cottonwood,
Falcon Ridge, and Kensington Crest Lifts Stations. The wastewater collected in the basin is
transported to KC’s Cedar River Trunk Interceptor at several connection points.
2.3.2 East Cedar River Basin
The East Cedar River Basin is located at the east side of the City’s sanitary sewer service area.
The basin extends from approximately Bremerton Avenue NE to the Urban Growth Boundary
east of the City. The basin can be partially served by gravity through the East Renton Interceptor.
The East Cedar River Basin includes the Shy Creek and Liberty lift stations. The wastewater
collected in the basin is transported to KC’s Cedar River Trunk Interceptor at several connection
points.
2.3.3 East Lake Washington Basin
The East Lake Washington Basin is located in the northern part of the City. The City serves the
entire basin, which consists of a variety of land uses including single-family and multi-family
residential, and light commercial. The wastewater collected in the basin is transported to
KC’s East Side Interceptor at several connection points. The East Lake Washington Basin includes
the Devil’s Elbow, Lake Washington Beach, L ake Washington Flush, Lake Washington #2, Long,
Stone Gate, Pipers Bluff, Wedgewood, and Westview Lift Stations.

2.3.4 Black River Basin
The Black River Basin is a large drainage basin in the southwest part of the City. The higher
elevations in the Rolling Hills, Talbot Hill, and Panther Creek areas are generally single-family
and multi-family residential developments along with commercial uses surrounding
Valley Medical Center, while the valley floor is generally industrial and commercial land uses.
A portion of the south and west portions of the valley floor are un-modeled. The upper
elevations of the basin are served by Soos Creek Water and Sewer District. The Black River Basin
includes the East Valley, Lind Avenue, and Talbot Crest Lift Stations. The wastewater collected
in the basin is transported to KC’s East Side, South Renton, and South Interceptors at several
connection points.
2.3.5 Downt own Basin
The Downtown Basin is located in the northwest part of the City and includes the
Central Business District, West Hill, and North Renton Industrial areas. Land use within the basin
consists of single-family, multi-family, commercial, and heavy industrial land uses. The model
basin includes the Airport Lift Station. Skyway Water and Sewer District also provides sewer
service to parts of the West Hill that are within the Downtown Basin. The wastewater collected
in the basin is transported to KC’s East Side Interceptor at several connection points.
2.3.6 May Valley Basin
The May Valley Basin is located in the northeast part of the City on the periphery of the City's
current service boundary. The portion of the basin within the City’s service area is currently only
about half serviced with a sewer collection system. The remainder of the basin is within
Coal Creek Utility District’s service area. Land use within the basin consists of primarily
single-family and light commercial land uses. The May Valley Basin includes the Baxter and
Misty Cove Lift Stations. The wastewater collected in the basin is transported to KC’s May Creek
Interceptor and East Side Interceptor at several connection points.
2.4 Interceptors and Collection Systems
Interceptors are sewers that receive flow from collector sewers and convey wastewater to a
point for treatment or disposal. They are typically located in low lying or centralized areas in
order to facilitate the gravity flow of the wastewater. The interceptors and all other sewers make
up the collection system.
2.4.1 Existing Sewer System
Currently, t he City’s gravity mains consist of approximately 60 percent polyvinyl chloride (PVC),
25 percent concrete pipe (CP), 5 percent ductile iron pipe (DIP), 3 percent vitrified clay
pipe (VCP), and 6 percent unknown pipes. The majority of pipe material within the existing
system is comprised of CP and PVC. Older sewers typically used concrete pipe, while PVC is
more common in newer sewer installations.
As shown in Table 2.1, a majority of the sanitary sewer system is constructed with 8 -inch
diameter pipe. This is consistent with the Department of Ecology’s criteria for minimum sanitary
sewer sizing.

(2) lf = linear feet.
The City’s sanitary sewer system also contains 6,735 manholes which join the various links of
sanitary sewer pipe. These manholes vary in construction type from brick manholes to precast
concrete manholes.
2.4.2 Interceptors
KC connections receive wastewater from the City’s collection system at more than 79 locations.
This sewage is then either conveyed to another drainage basin or directly to the South Treatment
Plant for treatment.
2.5 Lift Stations and Force Mains
Sewage lift stations are used to convey wastewater from a low point to a higher point through
the use of a pump and pressurized FM. The City owns and maintains 20 lift stations, which are
described in Table 2.2. The topography of the City’s service area is such that most of the system
is operated under gravity flow conditions with the exception of some areas that require pumping
to higher elevations. The topography of the system is shown in Figure 2.3. Details on FM and lift
station condition are in Chapter 6 – Replacement and Rehabilitation Program.
The most common type of lift station is comprised of a wet well which contains a submersible
pump located directly in the wet well. The second most common type of lift station is a
configuration with the mechanical and electrical equipment located above the ground surface
and over a large manhole wet well from which the wastewater is pumped. A wet well/dry well
configuration is the third most common type; this is comprised of electrical and mechanical
equipment located underground in a sealed enclosure adjacent to a large manhole which the
wastewater is pumped. Additionally, the West View Lift Station contains a grinder submersible
combination.

2.6 Water System
The City provides water service to City customers from a series of groundwater wells. As shown
in Figure 2.4, there are ten reservoirs and one operational storage/equalizing detention clearwell
at the Maplewood Treatment and Booster Pump Station (BPS) Facility. These storage facilities
within the City total 22,877,053 gross volume gallons of water. The City operates 12 BPS to
convey treated water from low pressure zones to high pressure zones. Altogether, the City’s
water system is 1,629,560 feet (308.6 miles) with a majority 8 -inch DIPs.
The City has a Water System Plan Update (WSPU) that was approved by DOH in February 2021
that includes a conservation plan identified in C hapter 6. Part of the conservation plan discusses
the potential for the use of reclaimed water. Further discussion on reclaimed water can be found
in Chapter 4 of this Plan. This WSPU was developed by the City in coordination with this
planning effort.
A wellhead protection program (WHPP) was prepared by the City and approved by DOH in 1999.
The City’s Water System Plan Update completed updates to the WHPP. Changes to the program
are included in Appendix L-1. Compliance with WHPP requirements is part of a broader City effort
identified in the WSPU as the Aquifer Protection Program. In 1998, the City adopted an Aquifer
Protection Ordinance to protect its water supply from being contaminated.
The ordinance regulates land use within the aquifer recharge area in order to protect the aquifer
from contamination and are defined as Critical Areas. As part of aquifer protection the City has
designated an aquifer protection area (APA), which is that area within the zone of capture for the
City's aquifers and spring. The APA is divided into three zones:
• Zone 1 encompasses the 1-year groundwater capture zone for the downtown wells.
Regulations adopted for this zone provide the strongest protection for the area that is
very close to the most important and vulnerable wells.
• Zone 1 Modified encompasses the 1-year capture zones for the Maplewood, Wellfield,
and Springbrook Springs, which are partially outside of the City limits. Regulations are
somewhat less strict than those in Zone 1 and are intended to provide appropriate
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 2
2-20 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
protection for important wells/springs that are deep and/or partially protected by
intervening layers of relatively impermeable earth materials.
• Zone 2 provides a level of protection adequate for areas that are further away from the
most important sources but still within the capture zone or for deep backup wells.
Zone 2 encompasses:
- The portion of the capture zone for downtown wells that lies between the 1-year
capture zone boundary and the City limits.
- The portion of the capture zone for Well 5A that lies within City limits.
- The portion of the capture zone for Springbrook Springs that lies between
the 1-year capture zone boundary and the 10-year bound ary.
Land use in Zone 1 is more strictly regulated than in Zone 1-Modified or Zone 2. All new
development within Zone 1 must connect to the sewer system. Existing development must
connect if it is within 330 feet of a sewer line. In Zone 2, all new platted single-family, multi-family,
and commercial development must connect to the sewer system. However, a single-family
residence is required to connect only if it is within 330 feet of a sewer line.
The water facilities and aquifer protection areas are shown on Figure 2.4. Currently the wellhead
protection zones and the aquifer protection areas refer to the same zones. The City is in the
process of updating the program: 1) update APA zones to reflect capture zone delineations, 2) will
be performing site surveys at facilities within the APA zones that store/use hazardous materials,
3) provide outreach and training for aquifer protection. A more detailed description of the
proposed aquifer protection policies can be found in Chapter 3 – Operational Policies and Criteria.
Additionally, Appendix L-2 shows the relationship between the wellhead protection zones and
where existing septic systems are located in the City.
2.7 Operation and Maintenance
The current operation and maintenance program for the sewer utility consists of four elements:
normal operations, emergency operations, preventive maintenance and staffing. Normal
operation of the sewer system is shared by the Maintenance Services and Utility Systems
divisions. The program is described and evaluated in more detail in Chapter 7 – Operations and
Maintenance.

OPERATIONAL POLICIES AND CRITERIA
3.1 Introduction
The existing sewer system is designed and operated according to specific ordinances,
regulations, and engineering standards (hereafter collectively referred to as policies and criteria).
All of the policies originate from eight sources, listed in descending order, from those with the
broadest authority to those with the narrowest:
• Federal Regulation – Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
• State Regulations – Department of Ecology (Ecology).
• King County (KC) Policies – Department of Natural Resources – Wastewater Treatment
Division.
• City of Renton Comprehensive Plan.
• City of Renton Ordinances – City Council.
• Administrative Policies – Mayor.
• Department Policies – Public Works Department.
• Long-Range Wastewater Utility Policies – Wastewater Utility Staff.
Federal regulation, state regulations, county policies, and city ordinances dictate requirements
that are set by law. Policies that originate in the Office of the Mayor, Public Works, or
Wastewater Utility cannot be less stringent or in conflict with other, broader laws. Those policies
and criteria referencing the Long -Range Wastewater Management Plan (LRWWMP) have or will
become official policies with the adoption of the LRWWMP by City of Renton (City) City Council.
3.2 Operational Goal
The goal of the City’s Wastewater Utility is to provide adequate, reliable sanitary sewer
services at a minimum cost to the customer.
Guiding the Wastewater Utility’s daily operations as well as its planning activities, the policies in
this LRWWMP stem from this goal. Objectives and policies that fall into six areas of emphasis
support this broad service goal:
1. Customer Service.
2. Planning Objective.
3. Service Area Extension .
4. Financial.
5. Facility.
6. Operations.
The policies and criteria supporting each objective are provided below. Note, given the nature of
the content, this chapter is presented in traditional policy format, rather than outline format that
is used in other chapters. For actual wording of a given policy and criteria, refer to the indicated
source for complete text.
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 3
3-2 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
3.3 Customer Service Objective
Ensure the availability of an adequate level of sanitary sewer service that is consistent with
land use, environmental protection, and annexation goals and policies.
3.3.1 Policies
• Sewer facilities and services should be consistent with the growth and development
concepts directed by the Comprehensive Plan (Policy U -1, 2018 City of Renton
Comprehensive Plan).
• Ensure and encourage the use of the sanitary sewer system within the urban areas in a
manner consistent with land use and environmental protection goals and policies
(LRWWMP).
• All new developments should be required to connect to the sanitary sewer system, except
properties that have adequate soils to support on-site septic systems, are zoned for low
density single family residential development , located away from environmentally
sensitive areas, and outside Aquifer Protection Areas (Policy U-2 1, 2018 City of Renton
Comprehensive Plan).
• Actively promote connection to the public sewers by all residents within the City’s
service area (LRWWMP).
• Public sewer expansions shall not occur in the Rural Area and on Natural Resource Lands
except where needed to address specific health and safety problems threatening the
existing structures and the use of septic or other onsite wastewater systems has been
determined by KC to be not feasible; or to serve a new school authorized to be located in
the Rural Area by R-327 (Policy F-264.A, 2018 King County Comprehensive Plan).
3.3.2 Implementation
• The owner of each house, building or property used for human occupancy, employment,
recreation or other purpose, situated within the City and abutting on a public sanitary
sewer of the City which said public is hereby required at the owner’s expense to install
suitable toilet facilities therein and to connect such facilities directly with the proper
public sewer in accordance with the provisions of this Chapter, within ninety days after
the date of official notice to do so (Renton Municipal Code [RMC] 4-6-040.A).
• Where a public sanitary or combined sewer is not avail able under the provisions of
Title IV Chapter 6 of the RMC, the building sewer shall be connected to a private sewage
disposal system complying with the provisions of this section (RMC 4-6-040.A.1).
• The owners of private sewerage disposal systems shall operate and maintain the
facilities in a sanitary manner at all times at no expense to the City (RMC 4-6-040.I.4).
• The owner or occupant of lands or premises located within the urban growth
area (UGA) (as defined in the King County Comprehensive Plan ) undertaking new
residential or nonresidential construction, short subdivision or subdivision from which
sewage will originate shall connect to a public sewer, provided the sewer utility permits
such connection (King County Board of Health Rules and Regulations [KCBHRR]
No. 3, 13.04.050).
• Sanitary sewers, together with all appurtenances, shall be constructed or deferred
before a final short plat is submitted or a short subdivision is recorded. Sanitary sewers
shall be constructed to specifications and standards of the Wastewater Utility,
approved by the Department and in accordance with other standards of the City. A
CHAPTER 3 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 3-3
separate construction permit will be required for any such improvements, along with
associated engineered plans prepared per the City’s drafting standards and associated
fees (RMC 4-7-100).
• Unless septic tanks are specifically approved by the Planning/Building/Public Works
Department and the KC Health Department, sanitary sewers shall be provided by the
developer at no cost to the City and desig ned in accordance with City standards. Side
sewer lines shall be installed eight feet into each lot if sanitary sewer mains are available,
or provided with the subdivision development (RMC 4-6-040F).
• Development that is within two hundred feet of a public sewer, where an on -site
system (OSS) is operating, connection to the public sewer is required when the sewering
authority permits such connection and when:
- Repair, modification, or replacement of the system is necessary, or the existing OSS
has failed and an OSS fully conforming to this title cannot be designed and installed
(KCBHRR 13.04.050).
- At such time that additional construction which in any way affects the on-site
sewage system is proposed (KCBHRR No. 3, 13.04.050).
- They are part of a sewer Local Im provement District (LID) (RMC 4-6-040.A).
• New development (residential and non -residential) in Zone 1 of the Aquifer Protection
Area (APA) shall be required to connect to the City sewer system (RMC 4 -6-040J.1.a.i).
• All existing development (residential and non-residential) in Zone 1 of the APA that is
within the specified proximity of existing or future gravity sanitary sewer shall be
required to connect to the City sewer system within two years of the availability of the
new sewer line (RMC 4-6-040J.1.a.iii).
• Any new development (residential and non -residential) in Zone 2 of the APA shall be
required to connect to the City sewer system (new single-family residential development
on existing lots may be allowed to use on-site disposal systems until public sewer service
becomes available, as determined by the Wastewater Utility) (RMC 4-6-040J.2.a.i).
• The City, at the discretion of the Wastewater Utility, may defer compliance with
non-health related standards dealing with extension, design, or capacity for tempo rary
sanitary sewer service. Temporary sanitary sewer service may include pump tests,
temporary discharge permits, connections for temporary construction sit es, or other
similar usage. The property owner will retain the responsibility and will execute an
agreement to either directly or financially meet said standards at the direction of the
City (LRWWMP).
• After connection to the sewer system, all private sewage disposal facilities shall be
abandoned and filled with suitable material; provided, however, the owner of the
subject premises may suitably clean the septic tank to utilize the sam e and any adjoining
drain field systems for the disposal of stormwater (RMC 4 -6-040.I.6).
3.4 Planning Objective
Ensure that the City’s sewage collection system is consistent with the public health and water
quality goals of Washington State (Policy U-F, 2018 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan).
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 3
3-4 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
3.4.1 Policies
• Sewer facilities and services should be consistent with the growth and development
concepts expressed in the Land Use Element. Extension of sewer service should be
coordinated with expected growth and development. (Policy U-20, 2018 City of Renton
Comprehensive Plan).
• Apply level of sanitary sewer service standards consistently throughout the service area
(LRWWMP).
• Sewer system improvements supporting areas of the City projected to experience high
levels of growth should be prioritized to ensure that sewer service is concurrent with
anticipated growth. (Policy U-2 5, 2018 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan).
• Timely and orderly extension of the sewer system should be provided within the City’s
existing and future service areas to meet public health requirements (Policy U -24,
2018 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan).
• Implementation and coordination of programs for the improvement, phasing and
financing of sewer infrastructure should be developed consistent with the Land Use
Element of the Comprehensive Plan (LRWWMP).
• Approval of development should be conditioned on the availability of adequate utility
service and should not result in decreases in local levels of service for existing
development. All new development should be required to pay their fair share of
construction costs for necessary utility system improvements (Policy U -5, 2018 City of
Renton Comprehensive Plan).
• Sewer f acilities and services should be in place prior to occupancy of development
projects (LRWWMP).
• Sewer service should be expanded so that the current levels of service are maintained
through build-out of the adopted land use (LRWWMP):
- Note: While land use pl ans typically deal with twenty-year projections, the sewer
facilities installed today have a life expectancy of 75 to 100 years. A Sanitary Sewer
Utility has to consider the current Land Use Plan, historical trends, and predictions
for further growth when designing sewers. The Wastewater Utility may install a
facility larger than needed for the land use projected in the 20 -year plan if additional
capacity needs are projected for the long -term future. It is in the best interests of
the ratepayers to obtain the longest use possible from a facility and not have to
replace newer facilities.
• Continue coordination with KC Wastewater Treatment Division regarding
Inflow/Infiltration reduction initiatives, system improvements, and interconnections
between City and KC sewer infrastructure (Policy U -27, 2018 City of Renton
Comprehensive Plan).
• Protect surface and groundwater quality through coordination with KC to reduce
surcharging conditions that may cause wastewater overflows (Policy U -26, 2018 City of
Renton Compreh ensive Plan).
• Coordinate with non-City sewer providers operating within the City and neighboring
jurisdictions to accommodate road construction and other public works projects (Policy
U-2 3, 2018 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan).
• For planning purposes, the Wastewater Utility should use sanitary sewer service
boundaries established by agreement with adjacent municipalities. Where boundaries
CHAPTER 3 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 3-5
do not exist, the Wastewater Utility shall use natural basins, KC’s Urban Growth
Boundary (UGB), and negotiations with adjacent sewer service providers to determine
the ultimate service area (LRWWMP).
• Facilities should be planned and sized to serve natural basins to minimize the need for
pumping and inter-basin transfers (LRWWMP).
• Projected sewage flows from development should be calculated based on adopted land
use plans and policies. These projections should be used as a guide in developing the
wastewater Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The CIP should be updated as land use
plans and policies are revised (Policy U-22 , 2018 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan).
3.5 Service Area and Extension Objectives
Ensure the availability of an adequate level of sanitary sewer service to areas annexing to
the City or areas within the City’s Potential Annexation Area (PAA).
3.5.1 Policies
• Support annexation where infrastructure and services allow for urban densities, service
providers would be consolidated, and/or it would facilitate the efficient delivery of
service. (Policy L-8, 2018 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan).
• Ensure the availability of an adequate level of sanitary sewer service through system
planning that is consistent with land use, environmental protection, and annexation
goals and policies (Goal U-E, 2018 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan ).
• The City will follow state guidelines that define a City's ability to assume facilities in
annexation areas (LRWWMP).
• The City may assume existing portions of adjacent sanitary sewer systems, at the
discretion of the City Council, when such assumptions promote the logical and efficient
development of the City’s sanitary sewer system (LRWWMP).
• Allow the extension of sanitary sewer services within the City’s PAA according to such
criteria as the City may require. Sanitary sewer service shall not be established within
the boundaries of another sewer service provider’s district, except by agreement with
that provider.
• As the service provider, the City is the point of contact or focal point. Not all regulations
or criteria originate with the City. Some regulations or criteria originate at the federal,
state, or county level. All applicable regulations will be followed in the provision of
service in unincorporated areas (LRWWMP).
• Areas annexed without existing municipal sanitary sewer service shall be served by the
City unless a service agreement exists or is negotiated with a neighboring utility
(LRWWMP).
• The City Council shall consider annexations without assumptions of existing sanitary
sewer facilities under the following conditions:
- The sanitary sewer facilities are or will be operated and maintained by an adjacent
municipal utility.
- The adjacent utility has executed a service boundary agreement with the City.
- The annexation area is better served by the adjacent utility either because of
location within a drainage basin or because it is the most logical extension of
facilities (LRWWMP).
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 3
3-6 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
• When areas outside of the city limits annex to the City, they must be provided with an
adequ ate level of sewer service. The City will serve annexed areas that do not have
sewer service unless a service agreement exists or is negotiated with a neighboring
utility. (LRWWMP).
• Areas annexed with existing sanitary sewer service must meet the City's sanitary sewer
service objectives. Upgrading of sanitary sewer facilities to City standards, within all or
portions of newly annexed areas will be required if there is a threat to public health and
safety. If improvements are necessary, they may be accomplished by developer
installation or LID as a condition of the annexation (LRWWMP).
• In the UGA all new development shall be served by public sewers, unless application of
this policy to a proposal for a single-family residence on an individual lot would deny all
reasonable use of the property; or sewer service is not available for a proposed short
subdivision of urban property in a timely or reasonable manner as determined by the
King County Utility Technical Review Committee. These onsite systems shall be
managed by the property owner that can consider an Onsite Sewage System Maintainer
certified by the Public Health – Seattle & KC. (2018 King County Comprehensive Plan,
Policy F -255).
• KC shall work with cities, special purpose districts, other local service providers and
residents to identify and distinguish local, countywide and regional services. Over time,
cities will assume primary responsibility for coordinating the provision of local services
delivery in urban areas. In general, the county will continue t o provide local services
delivery within the Rural Area and Natural Resource Lands. Special purpose districts
may still provide services, where appropriate. The county will also assume primary
responsibility for coordinating the provision of countywide services, including
countywide services that must be delivered within City boundaries. The county will also
work with cities, special purpose districts, and other counties to identify regional service
and facility needs and develop strategies to provide them. (2018 King County
Comprehensive Plan, Policy F-102).
3.5.2 Implementation
It is recommended the City update the City Code to ensure the availability of an adequate level
of sanitary sewer service to areas within the City’s Potential Annexation Area (PAA) that includes
all developments. As currently written, sanitary sewer service to properties outside the City’s
corporate limits will not be permitted except under the following conditions:
- Public Entity: The applicant is a municipal or quasi-municipal corporation including a
school, hospital or fire district, KC, or similar public entity.
- Necessary Service: Service is necessary to convert from a failed or failing septic
system or in the area that has been defined by the Seattle-King County Health
Department as a health concern area.
- Vested Service: Those properties for which the City has granted a valid sewer
availability certificate prior to July 21, 2008, and the project has a current vested
right to build.
- In the City’s Sewer Service Area, Existing Legal Lot(s) Desiring to Construct One
Single-Family Residence or Connect One Existing Single-Family Residence: The
Administration may approve the connection of one single-family residence on an
existing legal lot.
CHAPTER 3 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 3-7
• In any case, as a condition of sewer service by the City, the property owner(s) shall
execute a covenant to annex for each parcel when the property being provided sewer
service is within the City’s PAA (RMC 4 -6-040.C).
3.6 Financial Objective
Provide sound financial policies on which to base operations of the Wastewater Utility that
will allow the utility to meet its overall goal.
3.6.1 Policies
• Criteria should be established for developing the fees and rates necessary to maintain
the Wastewater Utility’s established level of service (LRWWMP).
• The Wastewater Utility shall be operated as an enterprise utilit y (financially
self -supporting) (LRWWMP).
• The Wastewater Utility should use a rate setting process that complies with standards
established by the American Public Works Association (LRWWMP).
• The Wastewater Utility should use cost -based rates and additional charges that:
- Recover current, historical, or future costs associated with the City's sanitary sewer
system and services.
• Equitably charge utility customers to recover costs commensurate with the benefits
they receive.
• Provide adequate and stable sources of funds to cover the current and projected annual
cash needs of the Wastewater Utility (LRWWMP).
• Portions of the revenue generated from sewer user rates will be used for wastewater
utility related capital improvement projects, including deb t service for the projects
(RMC 8-5-15F).
• New customers seeking to connect to the sanitary sewer system shall be required to pay
charges for an equitable share of the cost of the system. Revenue from these charges is
used to finance part of the CIP (RMC 4-1-180.C).
• Customers should be charged for supplemental, special purpose services through
separate ancillary charges based on the cost to provide the service. Ancillary charges
create more equitable fees and increase operating efficiency for services to customers.
Revenue from ancillary charges should be used to offset operations and
maintenance (O&M) costs (LRWWMP).
• The utility should maintain information systems that provide sufficient financial and
statistical information to ensure conformance with rate-setting policies and objectives
(LRWWMP).
• Rates shall be developed using the cash basis to determine the total revenue
requirements of the Wastewater Utility (LRWWMP).
• User charges shall be sufficient to provide cash for the ex penses of operating and
maintaining the Wastewater Utility. To ensure the fiscal and physical integrity of the
Wastewater Utility, an amount shall be set aside each year for capital expenditures from
retained earnings, that is, an amount shall be set aside to cover some portion of the
depreciation of the physical plant. The amount may be transferred from the Sanitary
Sewer Fund to the Construction Fund for general purposes, or for specific purposes, such
as creating a reserve for main replacement (LRWWMP).
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 3
3-8 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
• A Working Capital Reserve will be maintained to cover emergencies, bad debts, and
fluctuations in cash flow (LRWWMP).
• The customer classes for the utility shall be single-family (including attached
single-family), commercial (including multi-family), and industrial (RMC 4-6-040.E.2).
• The inflation rate should be based on information provided by the Finance Department
(LRWWMP).
• Large industrial users should be charged for services on the same basis as all other users
(LRWWMP).
• The utility should use generally accepted cost allocation principles for all cost allocation
purposes (LRWWMP).
• The utility fees and charges should be calculated for the service area as a whole. Rates
should be the same regardless of location (except for the inside/outside City distinction
discussed below) (LRWWMP).
• When the City takes over existing service of properties outside the City limits by
agreement with an adjacent district, the City shall charge the normal in-city rates
(LRWWMP).
3.6.2 Implementation
• For customers residing ou tside the City limits, sanitary sewer rates are 1.5 times the
residential City rates (RMC 8-5-15C).
• Renton provides for a senior and/or disabled citizen discount on City sewer rates
(RMC 8-5-15D4).
• Owners of properties that have not been assessed or charged an equitable share of the
cost of the sanitary sewer system shall pay, prior to connection to the system, one or
more of four charges:
- System development charge.
- Special assessment charge.
- Latecomer's fees.
• Inspection/approval fees.
3.7 Facility Objective
Provide a wastewater collection system that ensures adequate capacity and system
reliability, is consistent with land use and environmental protection goals and policies, and is
well maintained.
3.7.1 Policies
• Protect the health and safety of City citizens from environmental hazards associated
with utility systems through the proper design and siting of utility facilities (LRWWMP).
• Promote the co -location of new utility infrastructure within rights-of-way and ut ility
corridors, and coordinate construction and replacement of utility systems with other
public infrastructure projects to minimize construction related costs and disruptions
(LRWWMP).
• Design criteria should be established to provide an optimum performance level and a
standard of quality for the sanitary sewer system (LRWWMP).
CHAPTER 3 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 3-9
• All lift stations that will be converted to public maintenance shall have control and
telemetry systems that are consistent and compatible with the current City system
(LRWWMP).
• Joint use facilities will be pursued only in those areas where they would improve
reliability or reduce operating costs. All joint use facilities must comply with City policy
and design standards (LRWWMP).
3.7.2 Implementation
• Public sewers shall conform to the lat est City standards, as adop ted by City Code, as
well as Ecology Criteria for sewage works design and the Recommended Standards for
Sewage Works of the Great Lakes-Upper Mississippi River Board of State Sanitary
Engineers. The standards are subject to review by Ecology. All public sewer extensions

extend and cross the full width of the property to be served by sewer except when
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 3
3-10 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
shown by engineering methods, to the satisfaction of the Wastewater Utility, that future
extension is not possible or necessary. If an exemption is granted, the property owner is
not relieved of the responsibility to extend the main and shall execute a covenant
agreeing to participate in an extension if, in the future, the Wastewater Utility
determines that it is necessary (RMC 4 -6-010.B).
• Any facility improvements, identified by the current adopted LR WWMP, that are not
installed or are being installed must be constructed by the property owner(s) o r
developer(s) desiring service (RMC 4-6-040.B).
• Any party extending utilities that may serve other than that party's property may
request a latecomers' agreement from the City (RMC 9-5-1).
• Any party required to oversize utilities may request that the utility participate in the cost
of the project (RMC 4 -6-010.C).
• Grease and oil interceptors or other approved methodology, shall be required on all
restaurant, garage, and gas station premises and shall be so situated as to intercept the
sources of grease and oil wastes but exclude domestic or human wastes. Grease, oil, and
sand interceptors shall be provided in any other case if, in the opinion of the Wastewater
Utility, they are necessary for the proper handling of liquid wastes. All interceptors shall
be of a type and capacity approved by the Wastewater Utility (RMC 8-5-11).
• Old building sewers may be used in connection with new buildings only when the
Wastewater Utility finds they meet all standards and specifications of the City. The
applicant / owner is required to provide testing / examination material (i.e., c losed -circuit
television [CCTV]) prior to the City determination (RMC 4-6-040.G.13).
• The size and slope of the building sewer shall be subject to the approval of the
Wastewater Utility. The standard minimum sizes and slopes are (RMC 4 -6-040.G.3):
- 4 inches at a 2 percent slope (1/4 inch per foot) for single-family residential.
- 6 inches at a 2 percent slope (1/4 inch per foot) for multi-family, commercial, or
industrial.
• In no event shall the diameter of the side sewer stub be less than 6 inches. The
Wastewater Utility may allow, under certain circumstances, a 6-inch side sewer to be
laid at no less than 1 percent (1/8 inch per foot). A grade release holding the City
harmless for the flatter slope will be required .
• If a building cannot be served by a gravity system an approved, private lift station may
be utilized to provide service (RMC 4 -6-040.G.5).
3.7.3 Analysis and Design Criteria
Wastewater Flow Rates: Wastewater flow rates will be established based on adopted land use
plans and policies as reflected in the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) Land Use Baseline
projections. Per capita and employee flow rates will be calibrated to flow measurement data
(LRWWMP).
3.7.3.1 Sanitary Sewer Design Criteria
All sewer lines within the City shall be designed in accordance with good engineering practice by
a professional engineer with minimum design criteria presented in Chapter C1 of the "Criteria for
Sewerage Works Design," prepared by Ecology, November 2007, or as superseded by
CHAPTER 3 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 3-11
subsequent updates. The sewer lines shall also conform to the latest City Standards and
Specifications. Detailed standards are included in Title 4, Chapter 6 of the City Code:
• Design Loading for Sanitary Sewer Facilities: Sanitary sewer system flows are
composed of residential, institutional, commercial, and industrial sewage, along with
infiltration and stormwater inflow. Sanitary sewer systems must be capable of
conveying the ultimate peak flows of these wastewater sources. No overflo ws shall be
permitted (LRWWMP):
- Design Period: The design period is the length of time that a given facility will
provide safe, adequate and reliable service. The period selected for a given facility is
based on its economic life, which is determined by the following factors: the
structural integrity of the facility, rate of degradation, cost of replacing the facility,
cost of increasing the capacity of the facility, and the projected population growth
rate serviced by the facility. Collection and interceptor sewers are designed for the
ultimate development of the contributing area. The life expectancy for new sanitary
sewers, using current design practices, is in excess of eighty years (LRWWMP).
• Design of Sanitary Sewer Facilities: Allowable sewer pipe shall be high-density
polyethylene (HDPE) or PVC. For normal depth, PVC is generally preferable, because it
has longer laying lengths, which results in fewer joints, reducing the potential for
infiltration. Table 3.1 summarizes sanitary sewer design criteria (LRWWMP):
- Gravity Sewer Sizing: Gravity sewers are sized to provide capacity for peak,
wet -weather flows. The smallest diameter sewer allowed is 8 -inches, except for
limited conditions. All sewers will be laid on a grade to produce a mean velocity
when flowing half-full of at least two feet per second.
- Manhole Sizing: Manholes will be at least 48-inches in diameter and will be spaced
at intervals not to exceed 400 feet on sewer lines 15-inches in diameter or less, and
500 feet on sewer lines 18 -inches in diameter or larger. These distances are
consistent with most standards, but approval can be granted for longer distances.
- Roughness Coefficient: The Manning equation shall be used to design and analyze
wastewater flow characteristics of the sanitary sewers. The Manning roughness
constant [n] shall vary depending on the pipe material. For sewer modeling, a
Manning’s equivalent of 0.013 will be used. Typical values are summarized in
Table 3.1.
- Reference Datum: The North American Vertical Datum (NAVD) 1988 is the
standard datum used within the City for design and construction of sanitary sewer
facilities.
- Separation between Sanitary and Other Facilities: Ecology requires a ten -foot
horizontal separation of water and sewer facilities for health reasons. Sanitary and
storm sewer facilities require seven feet separation per the Surface Water Design
Manual and shall have basic separation requirements for construction purposes. In
unusual conditions the separation distance can be shortened, but a minimum
horizontal separation of five feet between sanitary and other facilities shall be
maintained per Ecology. Wherever possible, a horizontal separation of seven feet is
desirable. These distances are measured edge to edge.
- Hydraulic Analysis: The hydraulics of the City’s sewer service area is modeled with
the MikeUrban software program by the Danish Hydraulic Institute (DHI). The
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 3
3-12 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
model was calibrated and updated to reflect the system wet weather flows in 2018.
The City currently maintains and updates the model as needed.
• All new developments, with the exception of developments involving less than five
single-family residences, may require a hydraulic analysis. The sanitary sewer system
hydraulic analyses will be performed using the City's hydraulic computer model. The
developer may be responsible for paying the cost of the analysis of the sanitary sewer
system. If the analysis concludes improvements need to be made, the developer and the
City may need to negotiate cost allocation.

3.7.3.2 Lift Station Design Criteria
Sewage lift stations within the City shall be designed in accordance with good engineering
practice by a professional engineer using the minimum design criteria presented in Chapter C2 of
the "Criteria For Sewerage Works Design," prepared by Ecology, August 2008, or any subsequent
updates, and shall conform to the latest City standards and specifications. Detailed standards
are in cluded in Title 4, Chapter 6 of the City Code. Table 3.2 summarizes Lift Station design
criteria (LRWWMP):
• Design Loading for Lift Stations: Lift stations shall be designed to handle the peak,
wet -weather flow from the contributing area. All lift stations, except for private stations
for a single-family home, shall have a minimum of two pump units, each with the
capacity to handle the expected maximum flow:
- Design Period: The design period for lift stations shall take into consideration
long-term needs, rep lacement or expansion difficulties, service area growth rate
and useful life. A lift station should have a minimum design period of twenty years
for the facility and ten years for mechanical and electrical equipment. Consideration
should be given to longer design periods for lift stations that are expected to serve
an indefinite life. Consideration must also be given to the ability of the consumers to
pay for the facilities.
• Design of Lift Station Facilities: If wide variations in wastewater flow rates are
expected for the lift station, then consideration should be given to the use of three or
more pumping units. If three pumps are used, two of them must have the capacity to
convey peak wastewater flow rates. Each pump shall be capable of passing spheres of at
least three inches in diameter:
- Backup Power: Each lift station will be provided with an on-site power backup. The
City may allow the use of portable power backup for smaller stations. A lift station
designed for portable power backup shall be provided with sufficient wet -well
storage to allow adequate time for maintenance personnel to transport, setup, and
provide the necessary backup, during a power outage. Wet -well storage will be
designed on the basis of the peak, wet -weather flow.
- Force Mains: Force mains shall be sized to maintain a minimum velocity of 2 feet
per second. The force main shall have a maximum velocity of 10 feet per second
when all pumps are operating together. Regardless of these velocity criteria,
minimum size shall be three inches in diameter. A minimum of four inches in
diameter is preferable.
- Ownership: Each lift station to be owned by the City shall have control and
telemetry systems that are consistent and compatible with the current City system.
• Elimination of Lift Station Facilities: Lift station facilities are typically eliminated
through the development of the gravity sewer system. Highest priority should be given
to elimination of lift station facilities because of their high degree of vulnerability and
high O&M costs. Considerations for the elimination of a lift station include
environmental risks, life-cycle costs, lift station impacts on downstream sanitary sewer
facilities, vulnerability to vandalism, and lift station accessibility (LRWWMP).

Utility system efficiently.
3.8.1 Policies
• The City will use its Wastewater Operations Master Plan (OMP) to document current
activities and programs into an O&M procedures manual, review programs for
effectiveness and future regulatory requirements, analyze and recommend programs in
accordance with the City's long-range goals and objectives, and assist with the
development of an implementation strategy (LRWWMP).
• System Repair and Replacement shall be performed in a manner that includes risk
assessment, condition, and coordination with other Capital Projects as part of
determining when projects will be performed (LRWWMP).
• The City will maintain its wastewater collection system according to the following
guidelines:
- Maintenance shall be performed by the sanitary sewer maintenance staff and
supervised by the Field Superintendent .
- All maintenance personnel shall be trained in the procedures and techniques
necessary to efficiently perform their job descriptions.
- Dry, heated shop space shall be available to all maintenance personnel.
CHAPTER 3 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 3-15
- Tools shall be obtained and maintained to repair all items whose failure will impact
the ability to meet other policy standards.
- Spare parts shall be stocked for all equipment items whose failure will impact either
the ability to meet other policy standards or the inability to continue providing
service to customers.
- Equipment and software to conduct condition assessments, including CCTV
Inspections (LRWWMP).
• The City should provide a preventive maintenance schedule for all fac ilities and
equipment. This schedule should be based on the functional and economically useful life
of the equipment and facilities as determined by the manufacturer or industry
experience:
- Worn parts should be repaired, replaced, or rebuilt before they have a high
probability for failure.
- Pipelines should be replaced through a condition assessment that includes a risk
based prioritization.
- Where feasible and practical, equipment should be replaced before it becomes
obsolete (LRWWMP).
• The City will maintain the wastewater collection system in a timely manner that
provides service continuity to the customer:
- Equipment breakdown repairs will be made even if overtime labor is involved.
- Equipment that is taken out of service for maintenance will be returned to service as
soon as possible (LRWWMP).
• Written records and reports should be maintained on each facility and item of
equipment showing its O&M history (LRWWMP).
• The property owner shall own and maintain the side sewer from the house connection to
the wastewater main, including the building side sewer and the side sewer stub (that
portion of the side sewer within the right -of-way or easement). If a side sewer becomes
plugged, it is the property owner's responsibility to correct the problem. The City will
assist in locating the side sewer based on any as-built records it has. If it is determined
that the problem exists within the City sewer main, the City will provide professional
clean up and repair service (LRWWMP).
• A vulnerability analysis will be performed t o determine a reasonable "worst case" failure
for each basin. The analysis will consider the failure of the interceptor and trunk sewers,
failure of the largest mechanical component, and power failure to a single power grid
(LRWWMP).
• The Wastewater Utility is responsible for operating the sanitary sewer system, including
its planning, design, O&M, records management, customer service, and construction
management (LRWWMP).
• The Wastewater Utility shall consist of two sections: Wastewater Utility Systems
Secti on and Surface Water / Wastewater Maintenance Services Section. The
Wastewater Utility Systems Section is responsible for project management of CIP
projects, planning and design, and customer service. Surface Water / Wastewater
Maintenance Services Section is responsible for inspection, testing and repair of
facilities, routine preventative maintenance, and responding to emergencies
(LRWWMP).
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 3
3-16 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
• Wastewater Utility customer service is performed by the Development Services
Division (general) and by the Wastewater Utility staff (technical) (LRWWMP).
• Ensure wastewater utility staffing is sufficient to maintain the sewer system and
provide adequate service to City residents. Staffing levels should be commensurate
with the physical extent of the sewer system and the number of residents served (Policy
U-24, 2018 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan).
• Provide the levels of staffing and diversity of skills necessary to operate the City's
wastewater utility system (LRWWMP).
• The Wastewater Utility should utilize the expertise in other City departments, according
to inter-departmental agreements, to augment the Wastewater Utility's expertise
(LRWWMP).
3.8.2 Implementation
Restaurants and other food processing establishments, garages, and gas stations shall install and
maintain grease traps, grease and oil interceptors, or other approved methodology on their
premises as determined by the Wastewater Utility (RMC 8 -5-11).
3.9 Recommendations
The City has robust policies and criteria to aid in providing adequate, reliable sanitary sewer
service at a minimum cost to the customer. These policies and criteria are found in the
Comprehensive Plan, RMC, reference manuals, and as LRWWMP policies. Through review of
these documents, a discrepancy in Section 3.3.2 was found in regard to the distanc e from an
OSS. We recommend the RMC is revised to be consistent with the KC Health Department. The
recommended policy would state:
"Existing development that is within three hundred and thirty feet of a public sewer, where
an on -site system (OSS) is operat ing, connection to the public sewer is required when the
sewering authority permits such connection and when:
• Repair, modification, or replacement of the system is necessary, or the existing OSS has
failed and an OSS fully conforming to this title cannot be designed and installed; or
• At such time that additional construction which in any way affects the on-site sewage
system is proposed (KCBHRR No. 3, 13.04.050).
• They are part of a sewer Local Improvement District (LID) (RMC 4 -6-040.A).”
The City also identified a discrepancy in Section 3.5.2 in regard to the implementation of areas
annexing the City or in the City’s PAA. Currently the code states the City will only provide sewer
services outside the City limits under certain conditions. However, the City would like to modify
the policy to allow all development the opportunity to connect to public sewers. This will be
reflected in a future iterations of the code.
We recommend the City continue its regular review of policies and criteria to keep pace with
changing system and development conditions.
CHAPTER 4 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL |JULY 2022 | 4-1
Chapter 4
PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS
4.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the City of Renton's (City) land use policies and demographic projections
that are used to develop future wastewater flow projections.
The City's land use policies and sewer system are connected with adjac ent sewer systems'
policies and systems in several ways. Existing land use provides the basis for designing properly
sized sewerage facilities, including trunks, interceptors, and lift stations. Many of the basins at
the edges of the City's service area are also served in part by other cities or districts. In most
cases, the City's sewers are downstream, or at the receiving end of the effluent, from the
systems adjacent to the City. Therefore, proper planning for the City's sewers requires that the
plans of these adjacent utilities be evaluated.
In addition to adjacent utility plans, the land use plans and policies of King County (KC) and the
Growth Management Planning Council (GMPC) were also considered. As discussed below the
entire planning area is within the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) established by the GMPC. The
City refers to a portion of this area as the Potential Annexation Area (PAA). The City supports the
countywide framework policies (F-255 and F -102) that call for the designated Urban Area to be
served with sanitary sewers and prefers cities as the provider of sewer services. The entire study
area has been designated Urban by the 2018 King County Comprehensive Plan.
4.2 Basis of Planning
The Study Area, shown as a dashed green line in Figure 4.1, is the currently agreed -upon service
boundary considered for the Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan (LRWWMP). The Study
Area encompasses areas that coincide with the City limits and UGB.
Two planning periods are evaluated in this LRWWMP:
• Existing system .
• Build-out .
Evaluations are performed for both average dry weather flow (ADWF) and peak wet weather
flows (PWWF). The existing system is defined as 2012 sanitary flows calibrated with 2018 flow
data. Build-out conditions are projected to occur in 2040.
4.3 Planning Area
The planning area for this LRWWMP corresponds, for the most part, with the current City limits
and PAA, as shown in Figure 4.1. Service is provided consistent with regional planning and
agreements with adjacent utilities.
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 4
4-2 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
4.3.1 Existing Service Ar ea
The City currently serves customers in the Existing Service Area. As described in
Chapter 2 – Overview of Existing Sewer System , the City serves six drainage basins: Black River,
Downtown, East Cedar River, East Lake Washington, May Valley, and West Cedar River. Several
basins are served by utilities other than the City: City of Renton, City of Tukwila, City of Kent, and
Soos Creek Water and Sewer District provide service within the Black River Basin ; Soos Creek
Water and Sewer District also provides service within the West Cedar River Basin ; Skyway Water
and Sewer District serves parts of the Downtown Basin; and May Valley Basin is partially served
by Coal Creek Water and Sewer District. Figure 4.2 shows the City of Renton’s service area and
the adjacent sewer systems that border the City.
The City has negotiated service area boundaries along the common borders in these Basins with
Coal Creek Water and Sewer District, Soos Creek Water and Sewer District, Skyway Water and
Sewer District, and Cedar River Water and Sewer District. Additionally, natural boundaries in
certain areas make the City the logical sanitary sewer provider to them, especially the area to the
east of the Green River within the City of Tukwila. Figure 4.2 reflects these agreed upo n service
area boundaries.
4.3.2 Potential Annexation Areas
The PAA, the gold line in Figure 4.1, is the area between this line and the existing City boundary, the
dashed black line in Figure 4.1. Consistent with City policies outlined in Chapter 3 – Operational
Policies and Criteria, property owner(s) in the PAA will be required to execute a covenant to annex
for each parcel when the property is being provided sewer service if they meet the City’s sanitary
sewer service objectives. The City aims to provide sewer services to areas in the PAA without
existing sewer service in a timely and reasonable manner. The total area of PAA for the City is 7,603
acres.

4.4 Land Use
Land Use designations and regulations provide important information in evaluating sewer
system capacity. Existing and future land use information is an integral component in projecting
wastewater generation for the City and jurisdictions within the service area boundary, including
KC, City of Tukwila, and City of Kent.
The City designates parcels into twelve land use categories, as shown in Figure 4.3, these
categories include:
• Residential Single Family.
• Residential Low Density.
• Residential Medium Density.
• Residen tial Multi-Family.
• Center Village.
• Urban Center Downtown.
• Urban Center North .
• Employment Area – Industrial.
• Employment Area – Valley.
• Commercial Neighborhood.
• Commercial/Office/Residential.
• Commercial Corridor.
4.4.1 City of Renton Land Use
The existing land use pattern of the City reflects 100 years of settlement and expansion. The
original City was settled in the broad floodplain at the confluence of the Cedar and Black Rivers
along the shore of Lake Washington. Downtown Renton, the Renton Municipal Airport, and the
Boeing/PACCAR industrial area now occupy these lands. Since the 1950s, the hills and highlands
above the valley have been developed primarily for residential housing and accompanying retail
businesses.
4.4.1.1 Downtown Renton
The Landing Development sits on approximately 60 acres of former Boeing Industrial Land and
currently consists of various retail uses and a significant multi-family component. This
development will continue to expand within its existing 60-acres over time as current surface
parking is replaced by structured parking, thus permitting future infill of additional retail,
residential, and commercial office applications. Future phases of The Landing include an
additional approximate 30 acres of land for similar uses as the existing. The init ial development
of The Landing was a partnership between the City and the developer Harvest Partners.
Areas immediately north and south of downtown are characterized by older, single-family
development interspersed with small -scale multi-family development s.
Outside of the central business district, commercial areas are concentrated along the major
arterials and freeway exchanges, including Rainier Avenue, Grady Way, Sunset Boulevard,
NE 4th Street, the NE 44th Street exit from Interstate 405, and SW 43rd Street. These areas are
generally characterized by low intensity, auto-oriented strip commercial, but also include the
City's automall along Grady Way and several large-scale retailers.
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 4
4-8 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
4.4.1.2 The Green River Valley
South of downtown to the city limits, the Green River Valley has developed with manufacturing,
office and warehouse uses. The south and eastern portions of the valley include some
commercial uses. New commercial and industrial development activity, as well as changes in
business type is expected t o increase sewer flows in the Valley within the future.
4.4.1.3 Residential Growth
Significant residential development has occurred on the uplands above the Green River Valley,
downtown , and East Kennydale areas. These areas are primarily comprised of single-family
neighborhoods, although some concentrations of multi-family and commercial uses exist. West
of downtown, residential development extends seamlessly from the City up onto the West Hill of
unincorporated KC. On the east side of the service area, residential development extends from
downtown to the UGB, with the denser development closer to downtown and becoming less
dense as you travel east.
The City's PAA and sanitary sewer service area on the East Renton Plateau is generally
characterized by large-lot single-family, moderate density single-family developments, and
vacant, un-platted parcels. This area, known as the East Renton highlands, has seen significant
single-family growth occur over the past decade and anticipates continued expansion of the
sewer system.
4.4.1.4 Passive Land Use
The geography and hydrology of the City vicinity, as well as a proactive parks acquisition
program by the City, combine to provide significant open spaces that constitute a passive land
use. Some larger examples include lands adjacent to the Cedar River and May Creek,
Gene Coulon Park on Lake Washington, the Black River Riparian Wildlife Habitat area, and
habitat areas of the Green River Valley.
4.4.1.5 2015 Comprehensive Plan
The City has had a Comprehensive Plan since 1965. The current plan, adopted in 2015 and
annually amended, was developed and approved under the regulatory requirements of the
Washington Growth Management Act (GMA) and the policy framework of the KC Countywide
Planning Policies. While the plan includes Transportation, Housing, Capital Facilities, Utilities,
Downtown, Economic Development, and Environmental Elements, it is the policy decisions
expressed i n the Land Use Element that gives the plan its primary direction and cohesiveness.
This LRWWMP proceeds from and supports the policies and Land Use Map of the
Comprehensive Plan. Utility Element policies have been addressed in Chapter 3 – Operational
Policies and Criteria.
To the extent that the City has jurisdiction or can require compliance, development within the
service area must be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. Consistency with certain
elements of the Comprehensive Plan is required as a condition of sanitary sewer service outside
the city limits. The Comprehensive Plan is intended to provide the basis for all development
regulations, functional plans and other City plans and programs that may in some way support,
implement or derive from the City's land use plans. The Comprehensive Plan is a broad
statement of community goals and policies that direct the orderly and coordinated physical
development of the City. The Comprehensive Plan anticipates change and provides specific
guidance for future legislative and administrative actions. The Comprehensive Plan also serves
CHAPTER 4 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 4-9
as a guide for designating land uses and infrastructure development as well as developing
community services.
4.4.1.6 Service Outside the City
Sewer service outside the City is outlined in the current code.
4.4.2 City of Renton Land Use Designations
For the purposes of the LRWWMP, t he Land Use Map adopted on September 22, 2014 within the
Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan was assumed to represent the intended future
pattern of land uses in the planning area as shown in Figure 4.3 with areas tabulated in Table 4.1.
The City’s Land Use schema identifies six types of land uses: Residential Low Density, Residential
Medium Density, Residential High Density, Commercial & Mixed Use, Employment Area, and
Commercial Office Residential. The service area addressed in the LRWWMP includes most of the
area within the existing city limits, the UGB, and one area outside the UGB. The area outside of
the City (dashed black line in Figure 4.1), and wit hin the study area (solid green line in Figure 4.1)
includes 117 acres (0.18 square miles [mi2 ]) within the city limits of Tukwila, approximately
15 acres (0.02 mi2 ) within the city limits of Kent , and 12 acres of unincorporated areas in the
City’s PAA (0.02 mi2).

Total 14,714 (23.0 mi2) 7,603 (11.9 mi2)
The district designations on the land use map correspond to policies in the Land Use Element
of the Comprehensive Plan and are implemented by the City's adopted Zoning Map and
Zoning Code. The land use designations are described below based on Renton Municipal
Code (RMC) 4-2-020.
4.4.2.1 Residential Designations
Residential Low Density Land Use Designation
The designation is intended to guide development on land appropriate for a range of low
intensity residential and employment where land is either constrained by sensitive areas or
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 4
4-10 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
where the City has the opportunity to add larger-lot housing stock, at urban densities of up to
four dwelling units per net acre (du/net acre), to its inventory.
Residential Medium Density Land Use Designation
The Residential Medium Density designation is for "neighborhoods based on a mix of single-family
and small to mid-sized multi-family developments built around amenities such as shopping
centers, recreation areas, and other community gathering places." Residential medium density
land use designations include between three and eight dwellings per acre (R -6 and R-8 Zoning).
Residential High Density Land Use Designation
The Residential High Density Land Use desig nation provides a mix of residential styles including
small lot detached dwellings or attached dwellings. Residential High Density is "intended to
increase opportunities for detached dwellings as a percent of the housing stock, as well as allow
some small-scale attached housing choices and to create high -quality infill development that
increases densi ty while maintaining the single-family character of the existing neighborhood."
Higher density neighborhoods may "provide a mix of detached and attached dwelling structures
organized and designed to combine characteristics of both typical single-family and small-scale
multi-family developments." High density land use designations include between five and
fourteen dwellings per acre (R -10 and R -14 Zoning).
Residential Multi-Family Designation
The multi-family residential land use designation is intended to encourage a range of
multi-family living environments that provide shelter for a wide variety of people in differing
living situations, from all income levels, and in all stages of life. Densities range from 10
to 20 dwellings per acre (Residential Multi-Family [RMF] Zoning).

FINAL | JULY 2022 | 4-13
4.4.2.2 Commercial and Mixed Use Designations
Commercial Neighborhood Land Use Designation
The purpose of Commercial Neighborhood designation is for "small-scale convenience
retail/commercial areas offering incidental retail and service needs for the surrounding area.
Uses serving a larger area may be appropriate if they also serve the residents of the immediate
area and are compatible with the scale and character of the neighborhood."
Commercial/Office/Residential Land Use Designation
The Commercial Office (CO) designation is "established to provide areas appropriate for
professional, administrative, and business offices and related uses, offering high-quality and
amenity work environments. In addition, a mix of limited retail and service uses may be allowed
to primarily support other uses within the zone, subject to special conditions."
Center Village Land Use Designation
Center Village (CV) designations are characterized by an existing commerc ial and multi-family
core served by transit and set in the midst of suburban patterns of residential development or in
the City’s downtown. CV zoned lands are suitable for redevelopment into compact urban
development with a pedestrian -oriented, mixed-use c enter, and community focal point. The
zone is intended to revitalize an area, creating a vibrant, urban center where surface parking is
discouraged. CV zoning implements the Commercial and Mixed Use designation.
4.4.2.3 Center Downtown Land Use Designation
Center Downtown (CD) designation within downtown Renton is appropriate for the widest mix
of uses, is served by transit, and is suitable for intensive urban use within a pedestrian
environment. The CD zone is intended to revitalize the area by creating a vibrant , urban center in
the City’s historic downtown core. Surface parking is discouraged in this zone, except as a land
bank. CD zoning implements the Commercial and Mixed Use Land Use Designation.
4.4.2.4 Urban Center Land Use Designation
The Urban Center (UC) North land use designation include lands that are located within the
City’s Designated Regional Growth Center, if there is a potential for the creation of dense
employment, destination retail, recreation, or public gathering space with the UC zone. The UC
zoned areas have large parcels of land with the potential for large scale redevelopment
opportunities that will create a mixed-use retail, employment, and residential center. UC zoning
implements the Commercial Mixed Use land use designation .
4.4.3 School Designations
The City serves public elementary, middle, and high schools from the Issaquah and Renton
School districts, in addition to Renton Technical College. These schools are spread throughout
the City and can be found within each service basin, except for the May Valley Basin, as shown in
Table 4.2. There are two schools in the City’s service area, Maywood Middle School and
Briarwood Elementary School, which are not currently connected to the public sewers. Both of
these schools are in the East Cedar R iver Basin.

4.4.4.1 King County Land Use
For the purposes of the LRWWMP, t he 2018 King County Comprehensive Plan was used to direct
Land use within the unincorporated portions of the study area. All of the service area in
unincorporated KC is designated "urban", with the exception of the service to Apollo Elementary
School just east of the Urban Growth Area (UGA). Land within the UGA is intended to develop at
urban densities and with urban service levels. The UGB is the division line between the
CHAPTER 4 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 4-15
designated urban and rural areas that defines the eastern boundary of the City’s PAA. According
to the KC Countywide Planning Policies that provide a policy framework for all comprehensive
plans in KC, cities may not annex areas outside the UGB nor may they provide sewer service,
except "where needed to address specific health and safety problems or the needs of public
facilities such as schools (Policy F-264)”.
Unincorporated areas of KC are divided into community planning areas, each with a community
plan. For the purposes of the LRWWMP, community plans were based on those adopted as part
of the 2012 King County Comprehensive Plan. Where conflicts or inconsistencies between the
policies of the community plans and KC’s Comprehensive Plan occur, the Comprehensive Plan
takes precedence. Th e community plans, West King County, SE King County, Greater Maple
Valley/Cedar River, West Hill, and Four Creeks/Tiger Mountain , cover most of the unincorporated
areas within the study area of this LRWWMP.
4.4.4.2 City of Kent Land Use
City of Kent Planning Division assures quality in the land development process by effective
administration of land use codes and compliance with the GMA. The Comprehensive Plan Land
Use Map provides the general vision for the City's growth over the next twenty years, and
provides a framework for amendments to the City's official Zoning Districts Map.
Approximately 15 acres of the City’s sewer service area are within the City of Kent. This area is
designated as single-family residential.
4.4.4.3 City of Tukwila Land Use
Approximately 122 acres of the City’s sewer service area are within the City of Tukwila. Based on
the 2015 Comprehensive Plan , 40 acres are within the Tukwila Urban Center that contains an
intense diverse mix of use that will continue to evolve over time. The center is a regional
commercial/industrial area with limited mixed-use residential. The remaining area is designated
as Commercial/Light Industrial.
4.4.5 Adjacent Utility Systems/Joint Use, Service Agreements, and Related Plans
The City has entered into several joint use and service agreements with neighboring districts and
private customers when it has been economically beneficial. A list and a summary of these joint
use and service agreements are presented below. The full text for each of these agreements is
presented in Appendix F, Service Agreements:
• Coal Creek Utility District (formerly Water District No. 107):
- CAG -035-075, 1975 - Construction of an interceptor line from the City sewer service
area through Water District No. 107 to a collection trunk operated by the
Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle.
- Sewer Utility Franchise, 1987 - The City granted Water District No. 107 the right to
install sewer lines within the service area of Water District No. 107.
- CAG -01-031, 2001 - Sewer service boundary clarification.
• City of Kent :

• Cedar River Water and Sewer District :
- CAG -99-014, 1999 - Water and sewer service boundary clarification .
The City is surrounded by seven neighboring sewer utility entities, as previously shown in
Figure 4.2 . These neighboring utility entities are listed below.
4.4.5.1 Coal Creek Water and Sewer District
Coal Creek Water and Sewer District (formerly King County Water District No. 107) provides
sewer service in part of the May Valley Basin. The City and Coal Creek have made boundary
adjustments to remove previous service overlaps. This interlocal agreement provides for joint
use of a sewer main in Lincoln Avenue for the provision of service to that area and to allow for
another portion of the City’s service area to flow into Coal Creek’s system.
4.4.5.2 Cedar River Water and Sewer District
Cedar River Water and Sewer District (CRWSD) provides service to parts of the Lower Cedar
River Basin. However, only a small fraction of the wastewater from CRWSD ultimately flows
through the City's system by flowing through the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District. The
majority of sewage from CRWSD flows directly into KC’s Cedar River Interceptor located along
the Maple Valley Highway. CRWSD’s last Comprehensive Sewer Plan was adopted in 20 16. The
City and CRWSD have entered into a 1999 interlocal agreement identifying the common service
boundary between the two service providers.
4.4.5.3 Soos Creek Water and Sewer District
Soos Creek Water and Sewer District adopted the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District Sewer
Comprehensive Plan in July of 2014. In 1997, the District and City entered into an interlocal
agreement revising the boundary between Soos Creek and the City that had been set by a 1991
agreement. Based upon these agreements, the City is the service provider to some areas
currently outside the City and Soos Creek provides service to some areas inside the city limits.
CHAPTER 4 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 4-17
A 1964 agreement provides for joint use of a sewer interceptor in the Tiffany Park Subbasin, and
the 1991 agreement provides for joint u se of the Spring brook Interceptor, located on
South 192nd Street. The Springbrook Interceptor will provide service to the sout hernmost
portions of the City.
4.4.5.4 City of Kent
SW 43rd Street is the principal dividing line between the Cities of Renton and Kent. The City has
an agreement with Kent to serve a small area south of SW 43rd Street east of 72nd Avenue Street
and west of the Puget Sound Electric Railway right-of-way. The City of Kent Comprehensive
Sewer Plan was adopted in 2002 (dated 2000). The Renton and Kent City limits adjoin each other.
There is a small portion of the City of Kent, south of South 55th Street and east of the Valley
Freeway that is in the City’s service area. There are no service area overlaps or gaps between the
two entities, except for that one small area.
4.4.5.5 City of Tukwila
The City serves a portion of the City of Tukwila east of the Burlington Northern Railroad and
south of Longacres. Tukwila also discharges from a lift station into the KC Sewer System within
the City along Monster Road SW. Tukwila prepared a Comprehensive Sewer Plan in 2014.
Approximately 122 acres of the City’s sewer service area is within the City of Tukwila.
4.4.5.6 Skyway Water and Sewer District
Skyway Water and Sewer Distric t adopted a Comprehensive Plan in 2004 The Skyway sewer
service area is shown in Figure 4.2. The boundary between Skyway and the City has been set by
an interlocal agreement adopted in 1994. An area in the southern portion of the District, as well
as in th e service area to the south of the District, could be served by gravity to the City’s sanitary
sewer system. An agreement to allow the district to route portions of this southern service area
through the City’s facilities was entered into in 2006. Skyway Water and Sewer District provides
sanitary sewer service to a small area of the City along Rainier Avenue near South 117th Place
and the northwest portion of the airport. Skyway sewage discharges into the KC System within
the City at the north end of the Renton Airport. (Coordinate with Skyway about how much flows
they will have so we can plan for the future).
4.4.5.7 King County Regional Wastewater Services Plan
For more than 40 years, KC has protected water quality in the Puget Sound region by providing
wastewater treatment services to King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties, including the City. To
ensure the continuation of high quality wastewater treatment services in the future, KC carried
out an intensive planning effort, involving numerous elected officials, representatives from local
sewer agencies, organizations, and individuals from around the region.
The Regional Wastewater Services Plan (RWSP) resulted from these efforts, which was adopted
by the KC Council in November 1999, via Ordinance 13680. The RWSP outlines a number of
important projects, programs, and policies for KC to implement through 2030, and work is well
underway. A summary of the major components of the RWSP includes Brightwater Treatment
System, Conveyance System Improvements, Regional Infiltration and Inflow Control, Combined
Sewer Overflow Control, Odor Control Program, Biosolids Recycling, and Reclaimed Water. In
2013, KC completed a comprehensive review of RWSP. The Compressive Review found that full
expansion of the South Treatment Plan t , located in the City, will likely occur in the 2030s based
on updated treatment capacity needs, not 2029 as previous planned.
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 4
4-18 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
In December 1999 , as part of the RWSP, the KC Council approved the development of a Regional
Infiltration and Inflow (I/I) Control Program. The purpose of the program is to reduce the risk of
sanitary sewer overflows and the cost of adding capacity to facilities that convey wastewater to
KC treatment plants.
In 2000, KC’s Wastewater Treatment Division, in cooperation with the local component agencies
that it serves, of which the City is one of, launched an I/I Program. The recommendations of the
I/I Program represent the consensus reached by the KC and local agencies throughout the 6 -year
program development process. Knowledge gained from flow monitoring, modeling, pilot
projects, and a benefit -cost analysis conducted during the I/I control study served as the basis for
consensus.
Recommendations are presented for both I/I reduction and long -term I/I control and for program
administration and policy. In addition to cost -effectively removing enough I/I from the collection
system to delay, reduce, or eliminate some otherwise needed conveyance system
improvement (CSI) projects, measures must be in place to maintain I/I reductions long-term and
to prevent future increases in I/I throughout the regional system. Long-term I/I control includes
policy, administrative, financial, and technical measures that promote an ongoing program of
review, maintenance, and repair of the collection and conveyance system.
4.4.5.8 King County Conveyance System Improvement Program
Since 1999, the CSI Program focuses on guiding major upgrades and improvements to
KC-owned facilities. A 2017 CSI program update was completed with conceptual projects
approved in 2017. As part of this effort, a Regional Needs Assessment report was completed
in 2015, where the City discharges are included in the South Lake Washington Planning Area. As
discussed in Chapter 5 – System Analysis and Results, surcharging in these interceptors impacts
capacity in the City's system.
4.4.5.9 King County Reclaimed Water Comprehensive Plan
The City is participating in the regional forum, consisting of King County, Cascade Water
Alliance, Seattle Public Utilities, and individual surrounding purveyors, in combined effort to
develop a master agreement for reclaimed water as well as reclaimed water planning and
policies. The forum represents a regional approach to strategic planning and system expansions
needed to accommodate the distribution, sale, supply, and reuse of reclaimed water that could
include the City's current and future service area.
In 2011, the King County Wastewater Treatment Division began another engineering,
environmental, and economic analysis of conceptual reclaimed water strategies. The City is now
working with King County to provide them appropriate information for this analysis. A
completed King County Water Reclamation Evaluation Checklist for this use is included in
Appendix M.
The City will support the regional supplier's study of reclaimed water use opportunities and will
work with King County Department of Natural Resources to identify potential reclaimed water
users and demand. Any reclaimed water to be used as a source of supply should only be provided
through retail water suppliers. The City has identified several potential users of reclaimed water
for landscape irrig ation uses, including the Boeing Longacres Facilities. The full list of potential
reclaimed water users from the City’s largest consumers is in the checklist.
CHAPTER 4 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 4-19
4.5 Demographic Analysis
Future sewer system requirements are based, in part, upon future demographic growth
projections within the sewer service area. Demographic growth projections were created for
areas within the City, unincorporated KC, and several small service areas that the City has agreed
to serve in adjacent jurisdictions. Most of the projected sewer area growth will occur in the areas
east of the current City limits, including a large non-sewered area within unincorporated KC in
the East Plateau service area, also known as the East Renton Highlands. This section summarizes
the demographic projections made as part of latest hydraulic model update documented in the
2012 Hydraulic Model Update (Stantec , 2015).
Demographic projections were sought for existing condition and build-out. The existing
condition was set as the year 2012 to correspond with the most recent flow monitoring effort.
Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) Land Use Baseline projections, which were developed
using the UrbanSims, provide demographic data through 2040. The City will likely reach
build-out by 2040 with future growth from redevelopment. Therefore, the City defined the
Ultimate projection as the PSRC 2040 project ion plus a 25 percent factor as a margin of safety to
account for future redevelopment and c hanges to building practices.
Population, household, and employment data was derived from the PSRC Traffic Analysis
Zone (TAZ) projections for the years 2012 and 2040. The data obtained was provided in
geographic subdivisions based on the sewer mini-basin boundaries provided to PSRC by Stantec.
Consistent with other LRWWMP, demographic data and results in this chapter are summarized
based on sewer mini-basins, rather than TAZ.
4.5.1 Residential Population Projections
In total, existing populations were determined to be 43,869 single-family and 24,417 multi-family
using both PSRC residential and Baseline Land Use. The total future population was projected to
be 76,731 and 37,386 which is an increase of 32,862 and 12,452 single- and multi-family
households, respect ively, over a period of 28 years. This is an approximately 1,174 single-family
and 445 multi-family increase in population annually.
Mini basins which see the greatest growth include basins 30B, 30C, and U9 at rates of
2,000 percent, 4,650 percent, and 2,582 percent, respectively, over the 28 year period.
4.5.1.1 Existing - 2012
The PSRC data provided 2012 residential projections for single-family and multi-family
populations. Stantec performed a review of the data to resolve any obvious inaccuracies
identified through the review of City geographic information system (GIS) data within each
mini-basin, including land-use, parcel count, and aerial photos. Addit ionally, larger multi-family
developments were reviewed using KC Assessor’s information.
Based on this review, populations for the following basins were modified as documented in the
2012 Hydraulic Modeling Update:
• Basin 5 – The Land Use Baseline projecti ons list 126 parcels and a single-family
residential population of 169. City GIS data shows 170 parcels within the basin, with an
estimated 100 single-family lots. A multiplier of 2.5 persons per single-family lot was
used to estimate a single-family residential population of 250 for this basin. The
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 4
4-20 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
multi-family population supplied by PSRC is negligible, and is consistent with the City
GIS data.
• Basin 20 – The estimate from PSRC for this mini-basin encompassed the Ultimate
mini-basin boundary. To estimate t he population for the current boundary, the total
of 3,007 people was scaled on an area ratio of the current/ultimate basins for an adjusted
population of 2,390. The multi-family development and zoning is all within the current
mini-basin boundary, so this population was not modified.
• Basin 25/Basin 43 – Both of these mini -basins include large mobile home parks, which
are not accounted for in the PSRC projections for either single-family or multi-family
populations. Basin 25 includes approximately 240 mobile homes, and Basin 43 includes
approximately 200 mobile homes. To account for these populations, a multiplier
of 1.8 (multi-family) was applied to each mobile home, and the populations were added
to the projections supplied by PSRC. For Basin 25, the total residential population was
adjusted from 983 to 1,415. For Basin 43, the population was adjusted from 49 to 410.
• Basin U1 - The Land Use Baseline projections list 58 parcels and a single-family
residential population of 255. City GIS data shows approximately 205 parcels within the
basin, with an estimated 197 single-family lots. A multiplier of 2.5 persons per
single-family lot was used to estimate a single-family residential population of 490 for
this basin. The multi-family population supplied by PSRC is negligible, and is consistent
with the GIS data.
• Basin U6 – The estimate from PSRC for this mini-basin encompassed the ultimate
mini-basin boundary. To estimate the population for the current boundary, the total
of 2,050 people was scaled on an area ratio of the current/ultimate basins for an
adjusted population of 1,345. The multi-family population supplied by PSRC is
negligible, and is consistent with the GIS data. It was not modified.
• Basin U9 – The estimate from PSRC for this mini-basin encompassed the ultimate
mini-basin boundary. To estimate the population for the current boundary, the total
of 1,268 people was scaled on an area ratio of the current/ultimate basins for an
adjusted population of 68. No multi-family population was projected. This is consistent
with the GIS data.
All modifications were reviewed and accepted by City Planning Department staff.
4.5.1.2 Future
The PSRC 2040 residential projections estimated single-family and multi-family populations that
are aligned with the Vision 2040 Regional Growth Strategy. Ultimate projections were calculated
as the PSRC 2040 projection plus 25 percent to be conservative.
Unlike the 2012 projections, no changes were made to the PSRC output with one exception .
Recent detailed projections for mini-basin 45, which were made as part of the Thunder Hills
Sanitary Sewer Interceptor Design Project, were incorporated into the 2040 demographic
projection. Mini-basin 45 multi-family populations were increased using a higher growth rate
similar to the adjacent mini-basin 3 PSRC estimates.
4.5.2 Employment
The total existing employment is 44,506 using 2012 basin population estimates. The total future
employment was projected to be 104,414 which is an increase of 59,908 employees over a period
of 28 years. This is approximately a 2,140 increase in employment annually. Major regions of
CHAPTER 4 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 4-21
growth for future employment are mini-basins 27, 32, 43, 48, 50, and U9 with growth rates of
10,891 percent, 5,017 percent, 2,400 percent, 4,700 percent, 3,447 percent, and 31,300 percent,
respectively.
Where employment projectio ns were not released for several TAZ due to confidentiality
requirements by the Employment Securities Department, alternate methods were used in these
areas, which are discussed further in this section. In addition, the school enrollment s were
estimated to account for sewer use by students, as they are not captured in the PSRC
employment projections. Note, the TAZ projections meet or exceed the City’s adopted GMPC
population and employment targets for the City and PAA. Demographic projections are
summarized in Table 4.4 and discussed further in the following sections.
4.5.2.1 Existing - 2012
PSRC employment projections, also based on the Baseline Land Use model, were throughout
the Sewer Service Area. As previously mentioned, projections were not available for
six mini basins due to confidentiality requirements by the Employment Securities Department:
Basins 30C, 32, 50, 52, U3, and U8. Therefore, demographic projections for those mini-basins
were developed using 2011 Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) data,
developed by the U.S. Census Bureau. Through a review of available GIS data, no obvious
discrepancies were found in either the PSRC or LEHD data.
4.5.2.2 Future
PSRC 2040 employment are based on local growth targets t hat are aligned with the Vision 2040
Regio nal Growth Strategy. Mini-basin employment allocations were made using the PSRC,
except where no data was available. For these six basins, Stantec produced custom allocations,
which were reviewed and accepted by City Planning Department staff. Ultimate pro jections
were calculated as the PSRC 2040 projection plus 25 percent.
4.5.3 Schools
The City serves public elementary, middle, and high schools from the Issaquah and Renton
School Districts in addition to private schools, Renton Technical College, and the University of
Phoenix campus. These schools are spread throughout Renton and can be found within each
service basin except for the May Valley Basin. There are two schools in Renton’s service area,
Maywood Middle School and the Briarwood Elementary School, that are not currently
connected to the public sewers. These are located in the East Cedar River Basin.
4.5.3.1 Existing - 2012
School enrollment projections were determined for schools within the existing sewer service
area using published data from the local school districts, including the Renton School District
and Issaquah Schools. Student populations were generally developed using enrollment statistics
for the 2011-2012 school year. School staffing were not included in enrollment, as staff are
considered in the PSRC employment projection.
4.5.3.2 Future
School enrollment projections for 2040 are not available from the PSRC or school districts.
Therefore, school population estimates were projected to grow at the same rate as the
residential population. As with other categories, the resulting projection was increased
by 25 percent to create the Ultimate projection.

CHAPTER 4 | LONG RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 4-27
4.6 Sewer Collection System Flow Components
The City has separate sewer and stormwater collection systems, where only wastewater is
conveyed in the sanitary sewer system. However, some groundwater and stormwater inevitably
enter the sanitary sewer through defects in pipes and manholes (MHs) and illicit storm drain
connections. Therefore, sewer flows may vary substantially between dry and wet weather.
The different flow components are described in the section below.
4.6.1 Dry Weather Flow Components
There are two components of dry weather flow:
• Base wastewater flow (BWF).
• Dry weather groundwater infiltration (GWI).
4.6.1.1 Base Wastewater Flow
The BWF is the sanitary flow generated by routine water usage of the City’s residential,
commercial, and mixed-use customers. Conveying this flow is the primary function of the
collection system. The flow has a diurnal pattern that varies by customer. Typically, a residential
diurnal pattern has two peaks with the more pronounced peak following the wake-up hours of
the day, and a less pronounced peak occurring in the evening. Commercial and mixed -use
patterns, though they vary depending on the type of use, typically have more consistent higher
flow patterns during business hours, and lower flows at night. Furthermore, the diurnal flow
pattern of a weekend may vary from the diurnal flow experienced during a weekday.
4.6.1.2 Groundwater Infiltration
Dry weather GWI enters the sewer system through defects such as cracks, misaligned joints, MH
defects, and broken pipelines. Dry weather GWI only occurs when the relative depth of the
ground water table is higher than the depth of the pipeline and where there is a defect; therefore
it varies throughout the system. Dry weather GWI (or base infiltrat ion) cannot easily be
separated from BWF by flow measurement techniques. Therefore, dry weather GWI is typically
grouped with BWF.
4.6.1.3 Average Dry Weather Flow
ADWF is the average flow that occurs on a daily basis during the dry weather season and is
represent ative of routine wastewater discharges into the collection system from customers as
well as baseline groundwater infiltration.
4.6.2 Wet Weather Flow Components
Wet Weather Flow (WWF) includes two components:
• Infiltration and Inflow (I/I).
• Wet weather GWI.
4.6.2.1 Inflo w and Infiltration
The stormwater I/I response in the sewer system to rainfall is seen immediately (inflow) or within
hours after the storm (infiltration).
Inflow is stormwater that enters the sewer system via a direct connection to the system, such as
roof drain and downspout connections, leaky MH covers, and illicit storm drain
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 4
4-28 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
cross-connections. Infiltration is stormwater that enters the sewer system by percolating
through the soil and then through defects in pipelines, MHs, and joints. The adverse effects of I/I
entering the sewer system is that it increases both the flow volume and peak flows such that the
sewer system could be operating at or above its c apacity. If too much I/I enters the sewer system,
sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) could occur.
4.6.2.2 Wet Weather Groundwater Infiltration
Wet weather GWI is not specific to a single rainfall event, but rather to the effects on the sewer
system over the entire wet weather season. The depth of the groundwater table rising above the
pipe invert elevation causes GWI. Sewer pipes within close proximity to a body of water can be
greatly influenced by groundwater effects.
Wet weather GWI is associated with extraneous water entering the sewer system through
defects in pipes and MHs while the ground is saturated during the wet weather season. Wet
weather GWI may occur throughout the year, although rates are typically higher in the late
winter and early spring in the Pacific Northwest.
4.6.2.3 Peak Wet Weather Flow
PWWF is the highest observed hourly flow that occurs following the selected design storm
event. PWWF in a sewer system can be more than ten times the base flow, causing utilities to
construct high-capacity infrastructure to convey and treat these flows.
4.7 Flow Monitoring
As part of the Scope of Services for this LRWWMP, Carollo Engineers, Inc. (Carollo) contracted
with ADS Environmental Services, LLC (ADS) to conduct a Temporary F low Monitoring Program
within the City's sanitary sewer collection system. The purposes of the flow monitoring program
were to correlate actual collection system flows to the hydraulic model predicted flows, evaluate
the system's capacity, and estimate basin I/I. The temporary flow monitoring data was collected
for a period of approximately four months from December 22, 2017 to April 22, 2018. The "ADS
Flow Monitoring Report" prepared by ADS summarizes the flow monitoring program and was
submitted to the City as a stand-alone report. The report can be found as an attachment to
Appendix G , TM 1.
4.8 Average Dry Weather Flow
Developing an accurate estimate of the future quantity of wastewater generated at build -out of
the collection system is an important step in maintaining and sizing sewer system facilities, for
both existing conditions and future scenarios.
Base flow can be estimated for a wastewater system by comparing dry weather flow and wet
weather flow at the various flow monitoring locations. To estimate ADWF for more specific
areas, such as individual wastewater basins, dry weather flows are typically estimated based on
the area contributing to flows and flow coefficients developed for each land use type. This
method is developed based on the assumption that areas with similar land uses, such as low
density residential parcels, produce equivalent quantities of wastewater flow. System -wide flows
can be compared to known flows at flow monitors, or at the treatment plant to verify accuracy.
This method of estimating base flows is an industry standard for planning and provides
sufficiently accurate data for planning purposes.
CHAPTER 4 | LONG RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 4-29
4.8.1 Average Dry Weather Flow Development
Existing ADWFs for each basin were estimated using data from the Flow Monitoring Program for
each of the flow monitoring basins. ADWF was developed using the driest days from the flow
monitoring period based on the following set of minimum criteria:
• Less than 0.1 in of rain in the previous day.
• Less than 0.4 in of rain in the previous 3 days.
• Less than 1.0 in of rain in the previous 5 days.
• Selected days must exhibit average-day flows within 85 percent to 115 percent of the
average-day flows of remaining dry days.
• In addition, those dry days that exhibited unusual flow patterns were not used to
generate net d ry day flow values for a basin.
Characteristic dry weather 24 -hour diurnal flow patterns for each site were developed based on
the hourly data. The hourly flow data were also used to calibrate the hydraulic model for the
observed dry weather flows during t he flow monitoring period. Hourly patterns for weekday and
weekend flows vary and were separated to better understand dry weather flow. An example of
the dry weather flow diurnal patterns is shown in Flow Monitoring Basin MH0537, in Figure 4.4.
Carollo est imated the average weekday and weekend dry weather levels and velocities at each
site from the data provided by ADS for use in the model calibration process.

4.9 Wet Weather Flows
PWWF in a wastewater collection system are caused by rainfall dependent I/I. Peak hour flows
can result in flows more than ten times the base flow, causing utilities to construct high-capacity
infrastructure to convey and treat these extraneous flows.
Existing and projected PWWFs are predicted using the hydraulic model and design storm used
for this LRWWMP. This analysis uses four separate multi-day, 20 -30 year recurrence design
storms, illustrated in Chapter 5 – System Analysis and Results. These storms were identified in
the 2012 KC I/I Study and correspond to the recurrence interval within historical KC rainfall. To
represent typical Pacific Northwest winter rainfall conditions, antecedent rainfall was added
from historical data. Further detail on the development of the design storm can be found in
Chapter 5 – System Analysis and Results.
4.9.1 Rainfall Data
An important part of the flow monitoring program is the collection and analysis of rainfall data.
Three significant rainfall events occurred during the course of the flow monitoring period, as well
as a few other relatively minor events. The storms recorded during the Temporary Flow
Monitoring Program did present data in terms of the collection system’s I/I response to wet
weather flow events, and is appropriate for I/I analysis and model calibration purposes.
4.9.2 Wet Weather Flow Data
The flow monitoring data was evaluated to determine how the collection system responds to
wet weather events. A summary of the peak wet weather flow mini basin during current and
buildout conditions is shown in Table 4.5.
4.10 Projected Flows
A summary of the modeled PWWF flows for each planning period is shown in Table 4.5. As
previously described, these flows were calculated usi ng land use data for the study area and an
average wastewater conveyance required per capita. These flows were calculated by simulating
the February 1996 design storm, described in Chapter 5 – System Analysis and Results. Flows
consider both I/I change and system expansion.

SYSTEM ANALYSIS AND RESULTS
5.1 Introduction
This chapter summarizes the conveyance analysis of all aspects of the existing system and their
recommended improvements. It includes a summary of system -wide conc erns and the hydraulic
analysis performed using the updated Danish Hydraulic Institute (DHI) MikeUrban hydraulic
model. The results are summarized at the end of the chapter for each sewer mini-basin and
within the entire system (system -wide) in Table 5.10.
This chapter builds on Chapter 4 – Planning Considerations and summarizes the detailed
technical information provided in Technical Memorandum (TM) No. 2 - Model Development and
Calibration that can be found in Appendix I.
5.2 System-Wide Concerns
The sewer system has system -wide concerns that are common throughout its mini-basins. These
concerns, summarized below, impact both the City of Renton’s (City’s) operations and capital
planning.
5.2.1 King County-Interceptor Surcharging
During peak flows, King County (KC) will use its interceptors for storage of wastewater and for
controlling flows in the South Treatment Plant. This may result in surcharging of the KC
interceptors. KC reserves the right to surcharge its interceptors to an elevation of 25 feet (ft).
KC has n ever reached this extreme, to the City’s knowledge; however, the City has experienced
sewer surcharge problems in the low-lying areas. As a result of KC's surcharging, it is possible
that additional wastewater could overflow in low-lying areas through manh ole covers and side
sewer connections.
KC, as part of their regional conveyance system needs report (Report), dated December 2017,
identified long-term capacity concerns within this Long-Range Wastewater Management
Plan’s (LRWWMP’s) planning period within portions of the east-side interceptor in the City. The
Report identifies capacity projects to alleviate the capacity concerns; however, these projects are
not in KC’s 6 year capital improvement plan.
The City has not designed facilities to accommodate a sewer surcharge to an elevation of 25 ft.
The City's current position is that KC is responsible for providing adequate capacity within its
interceptors and wastewater treatment facilities. In addition, the City considers KC to be
responsible for proper effluent disposal. During the preparation of the LRWWMP, no specific
analysis was made of the effect of KC’s surcharging on the City's sewer system. KC should
continue to study and identify areas of potential risk and alternatives to mitigate this problem. In
the past, KC has increased the influent and effluent capacity at South Plant and has installed
parallel interceptor facilities. This has significantly reduced the chance of surcharging but does
not eliminate the problem.

5-2 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
5.2.2 Adjacent Utility Systems
For purposes of this LRWWMP, all of the comprehensive plans for the adjacent utility systems
described in Chapter 4 – Planning Considerations were examined. The hydraulic analysis utilized
the projected Ultimate Peak 20 -year design flows, as computed by KC. These flows were
obtained from KC and assigned as constant inflow conditions. This conservative assumption
contributed to surcharging and capacity issues in portions of the system.
The City has several agreements with adjacent utilities that allow joint use of facilities within the
City, as summarized in Chapter 4 – Planning Considerations. If capacity limitations become
evident, through visual inspection or flow measurements, then the City and the adjacent utility
should work together to correct the limitation as specified in the joint use agreement.
5.2.3 Hazard Mitigation Plan
The City partnered with KC Emergency Management to update the Regional Hazard Mitigation
Plan. The City developed a city-specific plan – Hazard Mitigation Plan (Renton Annex) – as part
of the regional effort. The Regional and city-specific Hazard Mitigation Plan seek to mitigate
long-term risk to people and property from the effect of both natural and man -made hazards.
The City is subject to a number of natural and man-made hazards that could affect the city, such
as earthquakes, flooding, landslides, winter/wind storms, coal mine hazards, hazardous
materials release, and terrorism/civil disturbance. The sanitary sewer system may be vulnerable
to a variety of the identified hazards.
5.2.4 Septic Systems
There are still a small percentage of developed properties within City Limits that are served by
private septic systems. In addition, the developed properties within the sewer service area but
outside of the city limits are primarily served by private septic systems. The Seattle-King County
Department of Public Health has an approved Septic Management Plan (King County On -Site
Septic System Management Plan – July 2007) and has started revising the document, however,
the latest draft has not yet been approved (King County On-Site Sewage System Management
Plan – September 2016). The latest Septic Management Plan identifies East Hill in
unincorporated KC and Renton, potentially served by Cedar River Water and Sewer District and
to a much lesser extent the City. This area was identified as challenging for the proper
func tioning of OSS due to high density development with smaller lots, poor soils, older septic
systems, and high or perched water tables. The latest OSS Plan states “work is needed to
document the environmental and current status of systems to develop competit ive grant
applications to seek funding for sewer extension projects.”
5.2.5 Wastewater Quality
The quality of wastewater transported in the City sanitary sewer system varies considerably
depending on the wastewater source, detention time within the sanitary sewer system and the
volume of infiltration and inflow (I/I).
The quality of domestic wastewater varies and is a direct result of the type of water used within
the home. Some domestic sewage can be considered stronger than others can. One household
appliance, the garbage disposal, can greatly impact the quality of wastewater. Most new home
construction incorporates garbage disposal in its design. Use of these garbage disposals
increases both suspended solids and the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), two common
results tested for when measuring contaminant concentrations.
CHAPTER 5 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL |JULY 2022 | 5-3
The total volume of industrial waste produced within the City is small compared with the volume
of domestic wastewater. However, an industrial or commercial development can have a
considerable impact on the sanitary sewer collection system immediately downstream of the
facility. Industrial waste can contain high concentrations of chemicals that can make the waste
highly corrosive or toxic. If discharge of an industrial waste to the sanitary sewer system creates
problems, then pretreatment of the industrial waste should be considered. Several federal, state,
and local regulations govern the pretreatment of industrial waste.
The KC Industrial Waste Program is a state delegated authority to implement the Federal
Pretreatment Program and handles the industrial waste for the City. The most recent list of
industrial discharges is provided in Table 5.1. This program administers the waste discharge
permits, inspections, enforcements, compliance and collection of surcharge monitoring fees.
The program also works with businesses to help them implement pollution prevention practices.
The industrial dischargers submit monthly self-monitoring reports to the KC Industrial Waste
Program to confirm compliance with their NPDES permits. The City regularly coordinates with
King County on program compliance including collaboration on conducting twice yearly
monitoring of the discharges.

CHAPTER 5 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL| JULY 2022 | 5-7
5.2.6 Wastewater Quality Analysis and Recommendations
A major problem associated with wastewater quality is the generation of hydrogen sulfide that
occurs during wastewater transport from its source to the point of treatment. The hydrogen
sulfide found in wastewater results from the anaerobic bacterial reduction of the sulfate ions
that are present. Hydrogen sulfide poses three serious problems: it is highly corrosive, has an
obnoxious odor, and, as a gas, is toxic to humans and has been known to cause deat h to sewer
maintenance workers. The production of hydrogen sulfide is directly related to the BOD of the
wastewater. Wastewater exhibiting a high BOD will tend to generate more hydrogen sulfide
than wastewater exhibiting a lower BOD.
Hydrogen sulfide is very corrosive to both sewers and pumping facilities. Hydrogen sulfide
released from the wastewater will tend to dissolve on condensation within the crown of a
sanitary sewer. The hydrogen sulfide retained in the condensation is converted to sulfuric acid
through oxidation by aerobic bacteria. This sulfuric acid will react with the cement bonding
material within concrete pipes, or iron within steel pipes, and can corrode a pipe to the point of
structural failure. Sanitary sewer pipes are most susceptible to t his type of corrosion in their
crowns because that is where most condensation occurs.
Aeration, periodic cleaning, and use of non-corrosive pipe materials can control effects of
hydrogen sulfide. If excessive hydrogen sulfide production is evident at a lift station, aeration of
the wet well should be considered to reduce the hydrogen sulfide in the wastewater and reduce
the effects of anaerobic bacteria that produce the hydrogen sulfide. Periodic cleaning of the
sanitary sewers will also remove the biological slime that forms on the pipe walls and produces
the hydrogen sulfide. The most effective method of mitigating corrosion by hydrogen sulfide is
through the use of non-corrosive pipe materials, such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), or high-density
polyethylen e (HDPE). Existing pipes experiencing severe corrosion can be rehabilitated through
the use of various slip form liners or fiberglass resin liners.
In order to control the generation of hydrogen sulfide, the City conducts preventative
maintenance with rout ine cleaning sewer pipes with inadequate slopes. In addition, all pipes are
cleaned before video inspection is performed. Both of these tasks reduce biological growth on
the walls of the sewer pipes and reduce the hydrogen sulfide generation potential.
Exc essive I/I will tend to reduce the production of hydrogen sulfide and the concentration of
contaminants in the wastewater. As the City works to reduce structural defects causing I/I, there
may be more impact by contaminants and hydrogen sulfide. The City m ay have to increase
efforts to reduce hydrogen sulfide and be more aware of potential contaminants.
The planning area for this LRWWMP corresponds, for the most part, with the current City limits
and urban growth boundary (UGB), as shown in Figure 4.1. Service is provided consistent with
regional planning and agreements with adjacent utilities. System -wide concerns present in the
wastewater infrastructure include some segments approaching the end of the Remaining Useful
Life and infiltration and inflow.
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 5
5-8 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
5.2.7 Agin g Sanitary Sewers
Sanitary sewer system installation began in earnest during the 1940’s and 1950’s as a federal
program to provide housing for workers at the Renton Boeing Plant and has continued through
today. Prior to this boom, the City also had significant sewer installations in the 1920s and 1930s
for the Central Business District. Some of t hese sewers have reached the end of their useful life.
This LRWWMP recommends a program to address condition issues of these aging sanitary
sewers through rehabilit ation and replacement .
5.2.8 Infiltration and Inflow
I/I occur in all sanitary sewer systems. Infiltration is defined as water entering the sanitary sewer
system through pipes, joint connections, manhole (MH) covers, and walls. Inflow is defined as
water discharged to the sanitary sewer system through connections to roof drains, yard drains,
foundation drains, and cross connections with storm sewers and combined sewers. The
combination of I/I may be a major portion of the total wastewater flow which must be carried by
the sanitary sewer system. I/I problems in an existing sanitary sewer system can be studied to
determine their effect. Finding and correcting I/I sources can be challenging, as determining the
source can be evasive.
Elimination of storm inflow from the system is difficult due to conflicting concerns. Sealing MH
lids and maintaining the water tightness of the lids decreases inflow, but gas, particularly
hydrogen sulfide and methane, can collect in the sealed MHs. The City attempts to minimize
vent holes for the system, but inflow cannot be prevented completely. During the design and
construction of new main extensions, the City utilizes MH liners and coatings as well as sealed
MH covers in wet areas. The City also performs video inspections during the wet season on all
new gravity sewers to check for leaks.
5.2.8.1 Historical Infiltration and Inflow
In December 1999 , as part of the Regional Wastewater Services Plan (RWSP), the KC Council
approved the development of a Regional I/I Control Program. The purpose of the program is
to reduce the risk of sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) and the cost of adding capacity to facilities
that convey wastewater to KC treatment plants. KC installed over 800 flow meters to measure
flows throughout KC. The flow meters monitor depth of flow and velocity. Early flow monitoring
data between late 2000 and early 2001 were considered unrepresentative because of drought
conditions that lowered the groundwater table and therefore reduced I/I to the system.
Consequently, KC performed additional flow monitoring from late 2001 to early 2002. This effort
proved more productive as data from several storms was captured. Rainfall in the region was
also monitored by KC. The Calcul de lames d’eau a l’aide du radar system (CALAMAR ) used a
combination of 73 rain gauges throughout the region, as well as the National Weather Service
radar, to generate rainfall quantities to an accuracy of plus or minus 10 percent.
In 2000, KC’s Wastewater Treatment Division, in cooperation with the local component agencies
that it serves, launched an I/I Program. Ten pilot projects were selected to evaluate the
effectiveness of various sewer rehabilitation technologies in reducing I/I in local agency
collection systems. The completion of the ten pilot projects in January 2004 marked a major
milestone in the KC study. The projects demonstrated that I/I could be effectively reduced,
depending on the location and method of rehabilitation. The results of the pilot projects, along
with other information, were used to prepare a long -term regional plan for reducing I/I in local
agency systems.
CHAPTER 5 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL| JULY 2022 | 5-9
5.2.8.2 Current Infiltration and Inflow
Old and aging sewers contribute to excessive I/I into the sanitary sewer system. In conjunction
with KC’s program for reducing I/I, the City identified, through model analysis, areas of concern
for investigation, additional metering, and replacement or rehabilitation of the sewers. There are
certain portions of the sanitary sewer system that are known as having I/I in excess of the
1,500 gallons per acre per day (GPAD) identified as the acceptable amount as determined
through the joint planning effort between KC and the component agencies. The City works to
reduce the I/I in these portions of the system through its mainline and lateral replacement
program. If these systems are replaced, I/I will be reduced and KC’s requirements will be met. If a
system is not scheduled for replacement or a replacement is delayed, the City may have to
perform interim rehabilitation to reduce I/I if required for capacity needs.
The City is participating with KC on its program to gain knowledge and experience to determine
methods for I/I abatement . The additional data produced through the current effort occurring
will be used by the City in determining feasibility of using I/I improvements in lieu of upsizing
sewer systems where capacity restraints have been identified.
The modeled values of I/I are shown for every mini -basin in Figure 5.5. The sewer model has also
identified portions of the sewer system that have I/I or capacity problems during large storms
that may not be evident with physical signs during smaller storms. To better understand these
areas, the City will initiate I/I Metering, Investigation, and Rehabilitation and Replacement , as
needed .
5.2.9 Other Concerns
The Downtown Utility Improvement Project (DUIP) is a pipeline replacement project intended to
support the anticipated future redevelopment of the City’s Downtown area. This program will be
incorporated into the City’s hydraulic model and evaluated during the capacity evaluation.
Additionally, combined sewers are designed to carry both stormwater and wastewater within a
single system. Current codes in the City do not allow combined sewers because it causes
stormwater, which is relatively clean, to be treated along with wastewater. Combined sewer
systems within the City have been replaced with separate sanitary and storm sewer systems.
5.3 Hydraulic Model
Wastewater collection system models are valuable tools used to assess the performance of
collection systems during dry and wet weather conditions and to plan for future improvements.
These models provide a means to simulate the impact of different storm sizes on the collection
system, and determine where future system deficiencies are likely to occur. In addition, a
well-calibrated model provides a method for testing alternative improvement scenarios. The
flow monitoring wastewater basins used in the model for calibration is shown in Figure 5.1.

5.3.1 Model Development and Calibration
A sewer collection system model is a simplified representation of the real sewer system.
Sewer system models can assess the conveyance capacity for a collection system. In addition,
sewer system models can perform “what if” scenarios to assess the impacts of future
developments and land use changes. The model was developed using the MikeUrban hydraulic
modeling software package, developed by DHI. The hydraulic model is a full pipe model and
includes 100 percent of the total system pipelines.
For this project, flow monitoring was conducted at 18 meter sites for a period of approximately
five months from December 2017 to April 2018. Flow monitoring data was used to calibrate the
updated hydraulic model for both dry and wet weather conditions. Dry weather flow (DWF)
calibration ensures an accurate depiction of base wastewater flow generated within the study
area. The WWF calibration process consists of calibrating the hydraulic model to specific storm
events to accurately simulate the peak and volume of I/I int o the sewer system. The hydraulic
model was calibrated following the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental
Management (CIWEM) code of practice. The updated hydraulic model is shown in Figure 5.2 .
5.3.2 Model Evaluation Results
The hydraulic model is well calibrated; simulating WWF storms accurately. A summary of dry
and wet weather flow model calibration is provided in Table 5.2. The percent difference in
volume is shown for each of the three storms that were used for calibration. The CIWEM
standards require the model to meet the calibration standards for two out of the three WWF
storms. The model is within calibration criteria for every site for DWF and for 16 of the 18 sites
for WWF. Calibration standards were not met for Site MH3216 and MH6041. Site MH3216
showed greater response in the model than in the meter; therefore the model is conservative.
Site MH6041 flow monitoring showed very little flow response to Storms 2 and 3, which made it
difficult to match across the season and be within typical parameters for the sewer system. For
this reason, the calibration focused on matching Storm 1. These sites are discussed in further
detail in TM 2: Model Update and Calibration , located in Appendix I of this LRWWMP. Appendix I
also discusses the level calibration and shows example calibration figures.

5.4 Capacity Evaluation
Capacity problems are the result of inadequate pipe sizes or slopes, or backwater conditions.
These problems may concern lack of capacity in the sewer system or available capacity for future
development. A hydraulic analysis has been performed on the City‘s sewer system. This analysis
did not show capacity problems in the current system. Capacity problems do occur throughout
the system in various degrees at build-out.
As the City implements more water conservation programs, there may be a negative impact on
the operation of a sewer system. Reduction of the liquid component of wastewater could cause
problems in moving solids through the lines. Problems moving solids could impact the operation
of the system, increase the potential of SSOs and will increase the need for flushing. This section
describes the capacity evaluation performed as part of this LRWWMP. Deficiencies were
identified per the analysis criteria and presented in the following sections.

5.4.1 Analysis Criteria
Capacity evaluation of the wastewater collection system was performed in accordance with the
following criteria, using the hydraulic model developed for this LRWWMP:
• 20-year and 30 -year, multi-day design storms are used for evaluating the City’s sewer
infrastructu re. Essentially, these design storm have a three to five percent
chance (1/30 - 1/20) that a peak of 3.7 inches of rain will fall in any 24-hour period in a
given year.
• It was assumed that system degradation is considered for this analysis. I /I degradation is
estimated at seven percent per decade, and 28 percent for buildout . This assumption is
based on KC’s Updated Planning Assumptions for Wastewater Flow Forecasting (2014).
• During Peak Wet Weather Flow (PWWF), water levels were allowed to rise no more than
three feet from the MH rim. Sewers were allowed to surcharge under these maximum
flow conditions during the design storms presented above. Additionally, p ipes that
surcharged to a ratio of depth/diameter > 2 were flagged as well in the hydraulic model
results.
• No surcharging was allowed for shallow MHs (shallow MHs consist of locations where
the difference between the MH rim and top of pipe was less than 3.5 ft ).
• Areas that were identified as a deficiency based on the analysis criteria but were caused
by KC backwatering conditions are not included in the results presented in this section.
The City is unable to fix issues pertaining to KC’s interceptor backwater condition.
Additional information and figures showing the heightened hydraulic grade line (HGL)
due to KC Interceptors are shown in Appendix I, in this LRWWMP.
• Modeled Lift Station influent is larger than firm capacity of lift station for the design
storm.
5.4.2 Design Storm
This analysis uses four separate multi-day, 20 -30 year recurrence design storms for the capacity
evaluation. These storms were identified in the 2012 KC I/I Study and correspond to t he
recurrence interval within historical KC rainfall. There are five of these historical rain gauges
which are used in different areas of the system. Figure 5.3 shows each of the four design storms.
Table 5.3 outlines which design storm was used for the capacity analysis in each mini-basin.

5.4.3 Capacity Evaluation Results
A capacity analysis of the modeled collection system was performed with the City's calibrated
hydraulic model using the system performance criteria outlined above. The I/I degradation
assumption created a conservative scenario for projecting future system conditions. Capacity
analysis was performed for existing conditions (2012 ) and build-out conditions (2040) for Lift
Stations and the collection system.
5.4.4 Lift Station Capacity
The hydraulic model includes representations of all of the City’s major lift stations. The model
simulates the existing lift station pumps and, when required, allowing and tracking flow beyond
the existing capacity. The peak hourly flow during the design storm upstream of modeled lift
station was used to determine whether stations met the firm capacity of the station. Firm
capacity is defined as the capacity of the pump station with one pump offline. It is recommended
the City investigate lift station capacity as a separate project in the future.
The lift stations were evaluated for sufficient capacity under peak wet weather flow under
current and buildout conditions. Table 5.4 shows the lift station capacity, modeled flows, and
deficiencies. The City has two lift stations that are deficient:
• Airport.
• Lind Avenue.
At buildout, it is anticipated that the firm capacity of three additional stations will be deficient:
• Kingston.
• Stonegate.
• Baxter.
CHAPTER 5 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL |JULY 2022 | 5-19
These additional buildout deficiencies are due large, anticipated increase in flow from new
development. The deficiencies at Lift Stations with current deficiencies are also anticipated to
grow worse with additional development. However, every lift station has sufficient total capacity
to convey both current and buildout total pump capacities, except buildout flows to the Airport
Lift Station. The City is currently working on upgrading the Airport lift station, which will address
the capacity issue.
Falcon Ridge accepts flows from Soos Creek Water and Sewer District, which may be a source of
model inaccuracy. It is recommended the City work with Soos Creek Water and Sewer District to
better understand both Utilities contributions to the Falcon Ridge Lift Station.
The City should further investigate flows at the Lind Avenue Lift Station to confirm station
performance in wet weather flows. The City has not historically observed capacity issues at this
station; therefore, it is anticipated the deficiency may only be in very large storms similar to
the 25- to 30 -year design storm.
The City should continue to evaluate potential developments contributing to Kingston,
Stonegate, and Baxter lift stations. The City should make necessary lift station improvements
prior to granting a utility permit that exceeds its capacity.
5.4.5 Collection System Capacity
The capacity analysis identified areas in the sewer system where flow restrictions may occur or
where the pipe does not have sufficient capacity to convey design flows. Sewers that lack
sufficient capacity to convey design flows could produce backwater effects in the collection
system that increase the risk of SSOs. Potential system deficiencies were identified for PWWF
under both existing and build-out conditions and are highlighted in Figures 5.4 and 5.5,
respectively.
The Downtown Utility Improvement Project (DUIP) adjusted the DWF in the area from 0.22 cfs
to 8.96 cfs. Wet weather flow assumptions were taken from Flow Monitoring Basin 6041, which
was deemed similar in age and I/I rate to the new construction of the DUIP. All pipelines within
the DUIP were adequately sized. However, some of the connection point s between the existing
system and DUIP project caused elevated HGL’s. Further analysis is needed to finalize any
improvements.
Under buildout condition, twenty-two areas were considered potentially deficient based on
design storms and evaluation criteria. These locations and associated information are presented
in Table 5.5. Add itional information on the deficiencies and proposed improvements can be
found in Chapter 8 – Capital Improvement Program.

5.5 Recommendations
This section describes recommendations for each of the deficiency areas identified in Table 5.5.
Deficiencies can be caused by a combination of local physical flow constraints and excessive
upstream flow from I/I. The design storms identified for system planning have return intervals
of 20-30 years, therefore, the City may not observe surcharging during normal WWF. Appendix J
shows the hydraulic grade lines at each deficiency. These are used to help identify possible
physical flow constraints in the vicinity of the deficiency, which includes negative slopes,
undersized pipes, and downstream backwater conditions. Therefore, a systematic approach was
taken to confirm and address capacity issues, as shown in in the flow chart shown in Figure 5.6
and outlined below:
• Piping reconfiguration: Identified the deficient pipe segment has a negative (reverse)
slope. It is recommended to replace these sections of pipe to create a positive slope, if
possible, to address both capacity and potential maintenance concerns.
• I/I Evaluation : Considered if excess upstream flow from I/I was a major factor in the
deficiency. A criteria of 7,500 GPAD of I/I was used to delineate excess I/I areas.
7,500 GPAD represents the cutoff for the highest 10 percent of basins, ensuring the
worst I/I basins are prioritized. For these areas, an I/I evaluation, followed by
rehabilitation and replacement of structural deficiencies, is recommended to address
the deficiency.
• Programmatic upsizing: If there is a clear undersized pipe segment without excess I/I in
the upstream mini-basin, then it is recommended the City upsize the pipe segments
causing the deficiency. These segments were relatively short.
• Long-term flow monitoring: Long -term flow monitoring is recommended for the
remaining deficiencies to better understand the issues in order to identify the most
cost -effective improvements.
All identified deficiencies and recommendations are detailed below in Table 5.6. Figure 5.8
shows the system wide improvement recommendations by deficiency.

5.5.1 Piping Reconfiguration
Pipeline reconfiguration was recommended for areas in the system that presented negative
slopes causing a capacity deficiency in the collection system. The negative slope also increases
the risk of solids accumulation in the pipe and other maintenance issues. The first action would
be to confirm the geographic information system (GIS) information and confirm that the
modeled negative slopes and inverts are accurate. In the event where these are accurate, and
where physically possible, potential pipe replacement may be recommended to create a
positively sloped pipe.
Of the 22 deficiencies, five are at negative pipe slope segments. The location and inverts to
reconfigure are outlined in Table 5.7. Preliminary design evaluation of each location is
recommended to identify site specific constraints that may limit changes to slope. This may
require replacing pipe lengths upstream and/or downstream of the deficiency to achieve a
positive slope.

5.5.2 I/I Evaluation
An I/I evaluation, followed by rehabilitation and replacement of structural deficiencies, is
recommended for deficiency in mini-basins with excessive I/I (defined as 7,500 GPAD). The
evaluation should incorporate micro-monitoring to focus rehabilitation and replacement
activities on areas with the greatest I/I. Micro-monitoring consists of installing multiple flow
monitors for a relatively short period of time in mini-basins to identify areas with relatively high
I/I. Flow meters are often moved to identify smaller and smaller areas with higher I/I. This allows
rehabilitation and repair activities to be focused on specific areas, rather than an entire
mini-basin.
Mini-basin I/I rates in GPAD is shown in Figure 5.7. Of the 22 deficiencies, seven occur in
mini-basins with high I/I (greater than 7500 GPAD). A total of seven upstream mini-basins
contribute to the deficiencies, as shown in Table 5.8, where mini -basins 2, 3, and 7 contribute to
multiple current system deficiencies. Deficiencies 05C and 25A became deficient during buildout
conditions. The upstream demographics of these areas were unchanged in buildout conditions,
so the deficiency is attributed to I/I despite I/I rates lower than 7500 GPAD.

5.5.3 Programmatic Upsizing
For sites where modeling indicated that capacity issues were caused by short and undersized
stretches, upsizing was recommended. Programmatic upsizing was typically recommended for
areas without significant surcharging and where modeling allowed identification of a defined
segment responsible for the deficiency. These locations are described in additional detail in
Table 5.9, which shows the location, pipe, and pipe diameter.
Deficiencies 23A, BA, and 46A also all correspond to areas with high condition risk; therefore,
upsizing could be completed in conjunction with pipe rehabilitation and replacement program
activities.

5.5.4 Additional Long-Term Flow Monitoring
Additional long-term flow monitoring was recommended for the remaining deficiencies. Of the
twenty-two deficient locations, five are recommended to undergo additional long-term flow
monitoring. The City reviewed these deficiencies and confirmed that they have not observed
capacity issues at these location in the field. Therefore, long -term flow monitoring is
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 5
5-32 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
recommended to determine the extent and possible causes of the deficiency. The recommended
quantity, type, duration, location, and priority of the monitoring is provided in Table 5.10.
The recommended duration is chosen based on the recurrence of the deficiency given the
surcharging seen in the model calibration events (6 months to 1 year storms) and design
storms (20 to 30 year storms). Based on the HGL under different storms, 2-5 years of monitoring
is recommended for Deficiency 05A; 1-2 years for deficiency 22A; 3-7 years for deficiency 14A,
15A, and 21A, 48A, and 41A.

Chapter 6
REPLACEMENT AND REHABILITATION
PROGRAM
6.1 Introduction
This chapter documents the City of Renton's (City's) prioritized collection system replacement
and rehabilitation (R&R) program. R&R prioritization is based on a risk, which is based on the
criticality and vulnerability of an asset. Criticality represents the consequence of failure, and the
vulnerability represents the likelihood of failure. A consistent approach is used to identify and
prioritize force mains (FMs), lift stations, and gravity mains as documented in the following
sections.
6.2 Replacement and Rehabilitation Plan Goals
The City is implementing a risk-based R&R program that takes into account the criticality and
vulnerability of their system. Using this approach, the City can proactively replace or rehabilitate
infrastructure to reduce the System’s risk.
6.2.1 Prioritizing Using Risk
The risk associated with an asset (pipe, manhole [MH], pump, etc.) is a measure o f the impact of
asset failure on the overall system. Risk is calculated as the product of criticality and
vulnerability, or:
Risk = Criticality x Vulnerability
Risk criteria were developed from the Halcrow Risk and Remaining Life Planning Tools (Weber
Dav is Aqueduct, March 2011) and refined to meet the City’s objectives and available data
sources. Data sources and levels were chosen that represented the selected criteria, were readily
available, and that could be applied consistently across the entire system. Table 6.1 shows the
matrix of the normalized risk rankings that were used for this study.

6.3 Lift Station and Force Main Current R&R Program
The Wastewater Utility operates 2 0 sewage lift stations in which each has its own FM that
delivers the flow to the gravity system (Fig.6.1). Since the 2010 Long -Range Wastewater
Management Plan (LRWWMP), six lift stations have been decommissioned and two lift stations
added. Over the past 25-years, the City has replaced, rehabilitated , or eliminated all previous
25 lift stations. However, their FMs often times were not. In 2016 the City conducted a risk
assessment of the Lift Stations and FMs. Based on this study, the City had developed and is near
completion on the lift station and FM R&R project that has systematically addressed or
mitigated potential risks to its existing infrastructure. Over the 20 year planning period, it is
anticipated that continued R&R will be needed and prioritized by the highest risk.
6.4 Force Main R&R
The City completed a preliminary condition assessment of its FMs in the 2016 Existing Force Main
Condition Assessment and Lift Station Evaluation Report (Carollo Engineers, Inc. [Carollo], 2016).
The 2016 project included developing an updated inventory of the lift stat ions and FMs,
performing a preliminary risk assessment of the FMs to identify those having the highest risk of
failure, field verifying the preliminary risk rankings, and preparing routine evaluation and
maintenance guidelines. This section summarizes the preliminary condition and risk assessment.
FM R&R recommendation s are presented based on the 2016 project and improvements being
made as part of the Rehabilitation Program.
6.4.1 Force Main Criteria
A preliminary “desktop” risk assessment was performed for the City’s sewer FMs. Criticality and
vulnerability criteria used to establish risk are summarized below in Sections 6.4.1.1 and 6.4.1.2.
The criticality, vulnerability, and risk ratings for each FM were quantified on a relative risk scale,
with one representing the lowest risk and four representing the highest risk.
6.4.1.1 Force Main Criticality
Criticality describes the consequence of failure of a particular asset. Criticality factors used in the
desktop risk assessment for the FMs are:
• Cost to repair, which includes FM material, diameter, length, and excavation and backfill
costs.
• Potential for life-threatening injuries or fatalities from FM break. Injuries or fatalities can
be of a pedestrian, a household, or a vehicle.
• Ability to maintain flow using bypass pumps or a Vactor Truck.
• Loss of critical infrastructure and transportation links. For example, a FM located
underneath a major highway is given a higher impact rating compared to one located in
a low-use road .
• Emergency construction access constraints, such as FMs l ocated in backyards, in a
wetland, or on a steep slope.
• Damage to nearby property, based on the number of properties damaged from FM
leakage.
• Environmental impact to waterways, wetlands, or other sensitive areas. A FM located
near an environmentally sensitive area is given a higher rating than one located further
away.
CHAPTER 6 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 6-3
6.4.1.2 Force Main Vulnerability
The vulnerability metric reflects the likelihood of asset failure. Physical or performance failure
and technological obsolescence qualify as asset failure; however, t he desktop risk assessment
considered physical failure only asset mortality. Factors used to assess the physical vulnerability
of the FMs are:
• Material type. Cast iron (CI) and ductile iron (DI) pipes generally have a shorter useful life
compared to polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) FMs, and
thus have a higher vulnerability rating.
• Age. As the FM ages, its remaining useful life (RUL) decreases and becomes more likely
to fail .
• History of failure. FMs having a history of frequent failures are more likely to fail again.
• Maintenance history. If routine maintenance is required to prevent FM failure, the FM is
considered to be in poor condition and is more likely to fail.
• Pipe conditions based on closed-circuit television (CCTV) records.
• Soil corrosivity based on soil classification from the United States Soil Conservation
Map. Electronic conductive soils such as peat, clay, and silt are more corrosive than
non-conductive soils such as sand and gravel for CI and DI FMs.
• Cathodic protection for CI and DI FMs.
• Potential of third-party damage from nearby construction or utility failures.
No CCTV or cathodic protection data was available for the analysis. Accordingly, these factors
were excluded from the analysis, but should be included in th e future if available.
6.4.2 Force Main Risk Assessment
A criticality and vulnerability level were assigned for each FM based on the available data and
input from City staff. Once levels were assigned for all criteria, a weighted average was used to
determine th e overall rating. Normalized ratings were determined by allocating the weighted
average of criticality and vulnerability into quartiles. The results of the desktop risk assessment
are shown in Table 6.2 .
6.4.3 Force Main Recommendations
The recommendations of th e system inventory and risk assessment of the City’s sewer FMs were
incorporated into the Lift Station and FM Rehabilitation Program, summarized in Table 6.2,
including:
• It is recommended that the City conduct CCTV inspection of FMs after FM cleanouts are
installed as part of the Lift Station and FM Rehabilitation.
• It is recommended that the City monitor the condition of the stream banks adjacent to
the Devil’s Elbow lift station and evaluate alternatives to armor the banks to protect the
lift station and FM.
• It is recommended the City continue regular maintenance and its active rehabilitation
program for FMs.

6.5 Lift Station R&R
Lift stations criticality and vulnerability are commonly assessed by individual component s, such
as pump, wet well, electrical system, etc. Each component may be rehabilitated as it reaches its
usable life, rather than replacing the entire pump station. Regular maintenance conducted by
the City helps extend the useful life; however, the infrastructure will eventually reach the end of
its useful life and require reh abilitation or replacement.
6.5.1 Lift Station Criteria
Similar to the FM criteria, a risk assessment was performed for the City's 2 0 lift stations.
Vulnerability was established based on the RUL of the lift stations. Initial RUL was determined
based on the age of the facility. The initial RUL was then adjusted based on the past condition
assessments and the ongoing FM and Lift Station Rehabilitation Program. Lift station criticality
was based on the FM criticality.
CHAPTER 6 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 6-5
6.5.1.1 Lift Station Criticality
The same criticality factors that influence FM impacts the lift station associated with it.
Therefore, the FM criticality factors were applied to the lift stations, as presented in Table 6.2 .
6.5.1.2 Lift Station Vulnerability
The City's lift stations were assessed a vulnerability, or likelihood of failure, score based on RUL.
Since several lift stations have been rehabilitated in the past, RUL was calculated for both
structural integrity of the lift station and the components within the lift station, which include
mechanical and elect rical coatings, roofing, etc. The structural usable life for a lift station was
selected as 75 years. The usable life for the components of a lift station was selected as 25 years,
which is consistent with the City’s capital improvement program (CIP) planning.
6.5.2 Lift Station Criticality Assessment
Lift Station criticality scores mirrored their FMs, as presented previously and detailed in
Table 6.3.
6.5.3 Lift Station Vulnerability Assessment
Vulnerability scores were calculated based on RUL. RUL was calculated using the construction or
renovation date of each lift station for structural and components within the lift station, which
are presented in Table 6.3. RUL was adjusted based on prior condition assessments and the FM
and Lift Station Rehabilitation Program:
• Lake WA No. 2 and Lake WA Flush Stations were assigned a Components RUL
of 0 to 5 years based on the findings of the Lake Line Project condition assessment .
• Devil’s Elbow and Talbot Components RUL was adjusted upwards to 6 to 10 years based
on the FM and Lift Station Rehabilitation Program.
• Cottonwood Lift Station was considered to be fully renovated as part of the
Rehabilitation Program.
The RUL of each lift station was based on component RUL, as it was less than the structural RUL
in all cases.
The vulnerability levels for Lift Stations were determined from the RUL as follows:
• Level 1 (Negligible): RUL greater than 15 years.
• Level 2 (Low): RUL between 11 and 15 years.
• Level 3 (Moderate): RUL between 6 and 10 years.
• Level 4 (Severe): RUL of 5 years and less.
The results of the vulnerability scores for each lift station are found in Table 6.3.

6.5.4 Lift Station Risk Assessment
The risk score was calculated applying the same method as the FM risk assessment. A matrix of
the normalized risk rankings for the lift stations is shown in Table 6.4 . Two lift stations which are
part of the Lake Line were categorized at the highest risk level. Five lift stations were
categorized in the moderately-high risk level including Devil’s Elbow, Kensington Crest,
Talbot Crest, Long, and Wedgewood. The remaining thirteen lift stations are categorized as low
to moderately-low risk level.

6.5.5 Risk Based Lift Station Recommendations
The City's lift stations are well maintained and it is recommended the City continue regular
maintenance and rehabilitation to address aging equipment . The operation of lift stations with
moderate and severe critical ity should be monitored closely, as the potential impacts from
failures at these stations are relatively higher than other stations. In addition to regular
maintenance, the City plans for a full rehabilitation of lift stations every 15 to 20 years to limit
vulnerability.
6.5.6 Rehabilitation Improvements
The Lift Station and FM Rehabilitation Project paired the 2016 risk findings with a detailed
condition assessment to generate comprehensive rehabilitation improvements to address
condition issues and enhance operations and maintenance (O&M ). The improvements, shown in
Table 6.5, provide enhancements to aid in future O&M of the lift stations and FMs:
• FM cleanouts to allow access for inspection and rehabilitation.
• Backup power (engine generator [E/G] install), where needed .
• Telemetry Improvements, where needed .
• Added Flow Meters, where needed.
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 6
6-8 | JULY 2022 | FINAL
Common rehabilitation items include wet well repair or recoating and structural improvements.
The Cottonwood and Baxter lift stations also will receive new pumps. The rehabilitation is
anticipated to provide approximately 15 years of useful life in all lift stations. Falcon Ridge was
not included in the Rehabilitation Project, so improvements are not included in Table 6.5.
The Lake WA No. 2 Lift Station and the Lake WA Flush Station, which serve the Kennydale
Lake Line Sewer System (Lake Line), are not included in the Rehabilitation Program . The Lake
Line evaluation provided a comprehensive analysis that addressed the City’s short - and
long-term issues concerning the system. Kennydale Lake L ine Sewer System Evaluation
Technical Memo randum (TM) 1: Phase 1 Existing Conditions (Carollo, 2017) documents the
condition assessment of the stations and identified rehabilitation improvements for the lift and
flush stations. The City is waiting to implement these improvements until the long-term
approach for O&M of the Lake Line is determined in 2020-2021 through the completion of the
Kennydale Lake Line Sewer System Improvements Project , which may change the sizing and
extent of improvements needed.

6.6 Gravity Sewer System R&R
A risk-based prioritization of gravity sewer mains was developed in 2016 and documented in
CCTV Program Phase 2 project's TM No. 4: Risk Findings, which is provided in Appendix I. This
section summarizes the findings that include criticality and vulnerability analysis, the RUL
analysis, a risk-based evaluation, and a recommended R&R program for the system's gravity
mains.
6.6.1 Gravity Sewer Main Criteria
Similar to the City's FM analysis, a risk assessment was performed for the City's gravity mains.
Criticality and vulnerability criteria were used to establish the assets risk of failure and are
summarized below.
6.6.1.1 Criticality
Once the criteria and data sources were found, each pipe segm ent was assigned a score-based
criteria rating found in Tables 6.6 and 6.7. The levels varied from negligible criticality or
vulnerability (Level 1) to severe (Level 4). The levels are represented numerically as 1 to 4.
Weighted factors, as discussed above, were applied to reflect the City’s priorities.
As discussed above, criticality represents the consequence of failu re of a particular asset.
Table 6.6 shows the criteria, weighting, and description of each level for criticality of gravity
sewer mains. These criteria and data sources reflect an iterative refinement process that
reflected the City’s typical key decision factors and the perceived accuracy of the data. Criteria
were scored on four levels based on analysis of available geographic information system (GIS)
information that best represented each criterion. Where the decision factors or available data
did not support four levels of scoring, two levels of scoring were typically used. For example, the
criticality criterion for environmental impacts receives a level of 3 when within 50 feet (ft) from a
critical area and a level of 1 at greater distances. Given the high level of the critical area data, the
City was not comfortable in differentiating the criteria further without a site-specific
investigation (wetland delineation, geotechnical analysis, etc.). These site-specific analyses are
generally conducted as part of the design of the R&R program and could not be reasonably
completed City wide.
The weighting factor for each criterion in Table 6.6 was discussed with City staff and used to
identify certain criteria that would impact the system more than other criteria. For criticality, it
was agreed that the loss of critical infrastructure and transportation links should have a
weighting factor of 2, while the other criteria were kept at a factor of 1. The scoring of these
criteria was adjusted with respect to the weighting factor.
A total score was calculated for each criteria for all gravity collection pipes in the system. For
example, if a pipe segment was located in an arterial street, its Loss of Critical Infrastructure and
Transportation Links criteria was scored as Level 3, or moderate, rating. Multiplying the level of
three by a weight of two on Table 6.6 , the final weighed level for that criteria would be 3 x 2 = 6.
The same calculation would be made for the remaining criteria and summed for an overall
criticality score. The same process was repeated for the vulnerability criteria.
6.6.1.2 Vulnerability
The likelihood of failure is known as the asset's vu lnerability. Table 6.7 shows the criteria that
were used to determine the vulnerability of each asset. Similar to the criticality criteria in
Table 6.6, the criteria, weighting, and description of each level were used as a decision factor to
find the vulnerability of the asset.

6.6.2 Gravity Sewer Criticality Assessment
Once the criteria and data sources were found, each pipe segment was assigned a score-based
criteria rating found in Tables 6.8 and 6.9.
The amount of pipe found in each criticality level was calculated and is shown in Table 6.8.
Figure 6.2 shows the map of the City's total criticality score results using the guidelines from
Table 6.1. To aid in review, a consistent color scheme is applied to the levels and scores in all
mapping, with light green showing the Level 1, or negligible pipes, dark green showing the
Level 2, or low criticality piping, orange representing the Level 3, or moderately critical piping,
and red showing the Level 4, or severe criticality piping.
Severe criticality mains make up 12.9 percent of the gravity collection system and are largely
located along major roadways or in the Valley. The majority (61.5 percent) of piping in the Valley
is either moderate or low criticality. Negligible criticality piping is distributed throughout the
system and account s for the remaining 25.7 percent .
Table 6.8 Criticality Score Range
Criticality Level Length (ft ) Percent of Total
1 (negligible) 333,777 25.7%
2 (low) 352,977 27.1%
3 (moderate) 447,195 34.4%
4 (severe) 167,286 12.9%
6.6.3 Gravity Sewer Vulnerability Assessment
Using the criteria in Section 6.4.1.2, the length of pipe allocated to each vulnerability level was
calculated and is shown in Table 6.9. Figure 6.3 shows a map of the four vulnerability criteria
results. About three quarters of the City’s gravity mains have negligible or low vulnerability,
indicating they have substantial RUL and are without O&M issues. RUL is discussed in detail in
the following section. Moderate vulnerability pipes are largely in older portions of the system.
There are very few, approximately 2 percent, severe vulnerability pipes, which are spread
throughout the system.

6.6.3.1 Remaining Useful Life Analysis
Because the City has a limited amount of CCTV for their gravity mains, the main criteria used for
the vulnerability was a RUL estimate, or how many years a pipe with a certain material has
before it will most likely fail. Due to the importance of this criteria, detailed information is
presented below.
Pipe age and material type were used to determine the RUL of the collection system pipelines.
GIS data and field research were used to determine the type of material and year or decade that
pipe segments were installed.
Pipe manufacturers establish a theoretical useful life based on pipe material; however, the actual
useful life is commonly lower due to soil conditions, aggressive wastewater materials, roots,
installation errors, etc. The original useful life varies from 60 years for concrete pipe (CP) to
100 years for vitrified clay pipe (VCP). Since the age and material data for some of the pipelines
were unavailable, it is assumed that the original useful life for all unknown pipelines is 50 years.
Table 6.10 presents the estimated useful life of pipes of various materials.
Table 6.10 Useful Life of Pipes
Pipe Material Original Useful Life (Years)
Corrugated Aluminized Steel (CAS) 60
Concrete Pipe (CP) 75
Ductile Iron Pipe (DIP) 75
Polyethylene 90
Pre-stressed Concrete Pipe (PSC) 85
Polyvinyl Chloride Pipe (PVC) 100
Vitrified Clay Pipe (VCP) 100
Lined Pipe (LN) 75
Unknown Material (XXX) 50
Table 6.11 summarizes the City's gravity sewer system by material type into short, medium, and
long-term replacement. The cells are color-coded to show the three categories of RUL; red
indicates pipe that is expected to reach the end of their useful life in the next 10 years or has
reached its useful life, light orange represents pipe with a RUL of between 10 and 20 years, and
green represents pipe that has a RUL of over 20 years. In total, approximately nine percent of the
existing collection pipes with known installation year are expected to reach the end of their
useful lives by the year 2026.

Pipelines were assigned to one of four levels shown in Table 6.8 and Table 6.9 . After discussing
the breakdown of the three replacement ranges with the City, it was agreed that the assets
with a RUL of less than, or equal to, 10 years could be split into two categories: between 5
and 10 years would be considered a "moderate" level, and assets that have less than 5 years of
RUL would be labeled as "severe." The resulting RUL levels were:
• Level 1 (Negligible) greater than 20 years.
• Level 2 (Low) RUL between 11 years and 20 years.
• Level 3 (Moderate) RUL between 6 years and 10 years.
• Level 4 (Severe) RUL less than 5 years.
Table 6.12 shows the linear footage breakdown of these levels. Further detail on the RUL source
data can be found in CCTV Phase 2 Project’s TM 3 - Pipe Risk Approach and Procedures and RUL
scores can be found in TM 4 - Risk Findings (Carollo 2017).
Figure 6.4 shows the map results of the RUL analysis, with the four levels color-coded similar to
the previous figures. Please note that the Sunset Lane project was completed in 2019 and
replaced and revised the layout of the pipe system around the new park, which is not reflected in
the figure.

6.6.4 Gravity Sewer Mains Risk Assessment
A risk-based prioritization was developed for their R&R projects. As discussed above, risk is
calculated as the product of criticality and vulnerability. A risk ranking was developed for all
gravity collection pipelines in the system during the study. This assessment is at a conceptual
planning level and does not include survey, site inspections, or other detailed investigations.
Pipeline risk was determined by combining the vulnerability and criticality scores for each pipe
segment. Those two scores were then combined into 16 different "criticality, vulnerability"
combinations (for example: 1, 2; 2,3; or 4,4). Each combination was categorized with a risk
ranking of low, moderately-low, m oderately-high, and high, as shown in Table 6.1. Table 6.13
shows how the linear feet of pipe was categorized into the 16 combinations using the normalized
risk rankings. Figure 6.5 shows the final result of the normalized risk ranking for the City's piping
system.

The following gravity main R&R is recommended based on the risk assessment :
• To confirm the condition of individual pipe’s RUL, the City should continue to conduct
ongoing monitoring through CCTV inspections and tracking of point repairs and other
maintenance issues. For the most critical or vulnerable pipelines, more advanced
condition assessment may be warranted.
• Approximately 57,500 lf of gravity mains are considered high risk and should be
rehabilitated in the short- and medium-term planning horizon (10 year period).
Individual capital projects will likely be warranted for long segments and large diameter

mains, while rehabilitation of smaller mains may be accomplished through annual R&R
program funding.
• Approximately 381,500 LF of gravity sewers are considered moderately-high risk and
should be monitored in the short-term and medium-term planning horizon (10 year
period). Pipe segments in poor condition should be repaired, rehabilitated, or replaced
through an annual R&R program .
• Remaining pipelines should be monitored in the medium-term planning horizon. Pipe
segments in poor condition should be repaired, rehabilitated, or replaced through an
annual R&R program .
6.7 Recommended R&R Program
The recom mended improvements for the replacement and rehabilitation program are
summarized below:
6.7.1 Force Mains
• It is recommended that the City conduct a CCTV inspection of FMs after FM cleanouts
are installed as part of the Lift Station and FM Rehabilitation.
• It is recommended that the City monitor the condition of the stream banks adjacent to
the Devil’s Elbow lift station and evaluate alternatives to armor the banks to protect the
lift station and FM.
• It is recommended the City continue regular maintenance and its active rehabilitation
program for FMs.
6.7.2 Lift Stations
• The operation of lift stations with moderate and serve criticality should be monitored
closely and maintenance activities conducted promptly.
• The Lake WA No. 2 Lift Station and Lake WA Flush Station, which both serve the
Lake Line Sewer System, have a severe risk and should be addressed in the short -term .
• It is recommended that comprehensive R&R of Lift Stations and FMs be performed
during the long-term planning horizon.
6.7.3 Gravity Sewer System
• To confirm the condition of individual pipe’s RUL, the City should continue to conduct
ongoing monitoring through CCTV inspections and tracking of point repairs and other
maintenance issues. For the most critical or vulnerable pipelines, more advanced
condition assessment may be warranted.
• Approximately 57,500 lf of gravity mains are considered high risk and should be
rehabilitated in the short- and medium-term planning horizon (10 year period).
• Approximately 381,500 lf of gravity mains are considered moderately-high risk and
should be monitored in the short-term and medium-term planning horizon (10 year
period). Pipe segments in poor condition should be repaired, rehabilitated, or replaced
through an annual R&R program .
• Remaining pipelines should be monitored in the medium-term planning horizon. Pipe
segments in poor condition should be repaired , rehabilitated, replaced through an
annual R&R program .

OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE
7.1 Introduction
This operation and maintenance (O&M) chapter summarizes the City of Renton’s (City)
Wastewater Operations Master Plan (OMP), which was developed in 2012 as a living document.
The OMP provides specific guidance on how to manage, maintain, and operate the system
assets with greater stewardship and effectiveness. This O&M chapter has been supplemented
and reorganized from the 2010 Long -Range Wastewater Management Plan (LRWWMP) for
consistency with the OMP.
7.2 Operations and Maintenance Programs
The O&M programs presen ted in this chapter are consistent with the "Wastewater Collection
Systems Management, Sixth Edition" by Water Environment Federation (WEF) Manual of
Practice No. 7 and “Core Attributes of Effectively Managed Wastewater Collection Systems,”
June 2010 (Appendix A), developed by the American Publi c Works Association (APWA),
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), National Association of Clean Water
Agencies (NACWA), and WEF. These sources provided a foundation of good engineering
practices for O&M of sanitary sewer collection systems; providing guidance and direction.
Through development and implementation of a management program encompassing these
practices, the City can provide efficient and effective collection system O&M while protecting
public health and the environment. Where current City programs and practices are lacking,
enhancements have been recommended. In most cases, these program deficiencies were
identified in the OMP and are actively being developed by the City.
Based on the City's system and needs, O&M activities are divided into the following programs
and practices:
1. System Inven tory and Information Management.
2. Collection System Maintenance.
3. Lift Station Operations and maintenance.
4. Predictive Repair and Replacement (R&R) Program .
5. Overflo w Emergency Response.
6. Fats, oil, and grease (FOG) Source Control.
7. System Infrastructure Capacity.
8. Design and Construction.
9. Legal Authority.
10. Safety, Training, and Certification.
11. Interagency Coordination.
12. Administration and Facility Maintenance.
13. Financial Program .
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 7
7-2 | JULY 2022| FINAL
The categories were formulated to be integrated within the organizational structure of the City
Public Works, which is presented in this chapter. Using this framework, a workforce estimate has
been developed to evaluate the staffing levels needed to perform the City's O&M functions at a
high level.
7.3 Organization
The City's O&M tasks are supported by the City's organization. The sewer utility operates under
the direction of the Public Works Administrator, as shown in Figure 7.1. Wastewater services are
provided under two divisions: Utility Systems and Maintenance Services. The Utility Systems
Director and the Maintenance Services Director both report to the Public Works Administrator.
The Surface/Waste Water Special Operations Services Manag er reports to the Wastewater
Manager who in turn reports to the Maintenance Services Director. The Wastewater Utility
Engineering Manager reports to the Utility Systems Director.
The Surface/Waste Water Special Operations Services Manager and Wastewater Manager
evenly divide their duties, overseeing the O&M of the sanitary sewer and storm water systems.
7.3.1 Wastewater Maintenance Services
The Wastewater Maintenance staff focuses on preventative maintenance and troubleshooting of
the collection system. Maintenance staff works to prioritize and monitor issues to keep the
system operating in optimal conditions. Maintenance work may involve electronic, mechanical,
and other types of improvements to existing systems.
Currently, t here are two Lift St ation technicians and eight Maintenance Services workers
responsible for the continued operation of the sanitary sewer system.
7.3.2 Wastewater Utility Services
The Wastewater Utility staff is responsible for the design and management of capital
improvement program (CIP) projects, coordination of developer extensions of the sewer system,
and long-range planning for the Utility. The Wastewater Utility Engineering Manager oversees
the Wastewater Utility staff.
Currently, t he Wastewater Utility staff consists of t hree engineering project managers, one
grease/industrial waste specialist , and a geographic information system (GIS) specialist.
7.3.3 Communication
Efficient and economical functioning of a team requires adequate provision for regular, effective
communication am ong its members. The normal channels of communication available to
maintain effective coordination are:
1. Vehicular two-way radios.
2. Cellular Telephones.
3. Daily work assignment meetings..
4. Electronic records and GIS system inventory
5. Documentation in the Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS),
supplemented through more detailed work logs and inspection reports.
6. Emergency phone numbers for "on -call" employees.
7. Direct, City-owned telephone connection to City Hall.
8. Weekly staff meetings.
CHAPTER 7 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 7-3
As the complexity of the system increases and the service area expands, the need for trained,
efficient staff to keep pace with public demand and advances in technology will become
imperative. New employees need orientation and basic training; while more experien ced
employees can improve by continued training.
7.3.4 Divisional Coordination
The Wastewater Utility utilizes the services of other City departments, according to
inter-departmental agreements, to augment the Wastewater Utility’s expertise. The Finance and
Information Services Department is responsible for customer billing, payment collection, project
cost reporting, fund activity reporting, and basic computer needs. The Human Resource and Risk
Management Departments are responsible for employee records, union labor negotiations,
salary schedules, and risk management evaluation.
Within the Public Works Department, the Wastewater Utility utilizes the services of the
Technical Services Section. Technical Services provides support to Wastewater through Mapping
and Property Services. This includes computer-aided design (CAD ) mapping, development of the
City’s GIS, surveys, and property management.
Within the Department of Community and Economic Development, the Wastewater Utility
utilizes the services of the Developm ent Services Division. Development Services provides plan
review, permit issuance, and inspection for developer extensions. They also provide inspection
service for the Utility’s Capital Improvement Projects.
7.4 Wastewater Operations Master Plan
The OMP is su mmarized in this LRWWMP. There are two primary purposes of the OMP; 1) to
document current procedures and programs into an O&M manual, review existing programs for
effectiveness and compliance with potential future regulatory requirements; and 2) analyze and
recommend program improvements in accordance with the City’s long -term goals and
objectives, and assist with the development of an improvement implementation strategy.
The master copy of this document is maintained by the Wastewater Utility Engineering Manager
to be a living document . The Wastewater Utility Manager solicits updates, comments, and
recommendations from wastewater operations team members, which after review by the
wastewater operations management team are subsequently incorporated into the master
document.
7.5 Systems Inventory and Information Management
In recent years the City has made substantial investment in improving its system inventory and
information management.
7.5.1 Information Management System
Providing time for keeping and maintaining accurate records should be an integral consideration
in determining the time to be allotted to any departmental task. Adequate records are an
essential tool in utility management and operation, providing the supporting data for operations
assessment and long-term planning, while saving time and reducing difficulty when trouble
arises. The sewer utility has need for several types of records: facility operation, personnel,
customer contact, inventory, and facility maintenance and repair. These and other appropriate
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 7
7-4 | JULY 2022| FINAL
documents should be legible, concise, permanent, accurate and accessible. Their importance to
the efficient functioning of the utility is critical.
There are many different information systems that are currently used in the management, and
O&M of the City’s wastewater system. These information systems and recommended
improvements, as stated in the OMP, are shown in Table 7.1. Most of these information systems
are managed outside of the City’s Utility Systems Department and contain data for ot her
non-wastewater related functions and groups.
Information management is a key component of operating an effective and efficient wastewater
system. The City continues to work toward the vision of a seamless, integrated, information
management system. The benefits of developing this seamless, integrated, information
management vision are as follows:
• Improved budgeting, planning, and decision making for capital planning.
• More efficient use of O&M staff.
• Extended useful service life of assets.
• Reduced risk o f asset failures including overflows, breaks, and permit violations.
• Better projections of asset lives and rehabilitation or replacement costs.
• Enhanced customer service through reduced emergencies and improved response
times.
Since the 2010 LRWWMP, the City has integrated many information systems that have
increased the efficiency of wastewater business processes. These changes to information
systems are introduced gradually to allow City staff to learn and implement the benefits of the
upgrades. Further u pgrades, especially in terms of automated scheduling, are anticipated in the
future as need arises.
GIS serves as a key user interface across multiple information systems and is used on a daily
basis. Since the 2010 LRWWMP, the wastewater utility has hired a full time GIS specialist to
assist with use of the information systems.

7.5.2 Business Process
In addition to recommended information systems, the OMP documents business processes and
recommended improvements. Business processes reflect the ability to conduct O&M tasks by
streamlining and enhancing how the tasks are currently completed. A review of business
processes is recommended as part of the upcoming OMP update to incorporate the changes to
information systems discussed in the previous section.
7.6 Collection System Maintenance
The City maintains more than 191 miles of gravity sewer throughout the system. The
Wastewater Maintenance Services Crew’s primary goal is to maintain sewer pipelines to
minimize damage to property due to wastewater overflows. The collection system maintenance
program includes both preventive and corrective maintenance. The preventative maintenance
program includes: lift station inspection and maintenance, manhole inspection and
maintenance, CCTV inspection, root cutting, grease removal, and hydraulic line cleaning.
Corrective maintenance is that which improves the performance of existing equipment, facilities
and infrastructure. The corrective maintenance program is mainly composed of repairing sewers
and clearing plugs. Additionally, easement maintenance and minor road work is periodically
required to access the collection system. The following section briefly describes each O&M
program.
CCTV has undergone substantial changes since the last LRWWMP; therefore, it is presented in
more detail below in Section 7.6.3. Additionally, side sewer maintenance is a major problem
CHAPTER 7 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 7-7
within a sanitary sewer system. It is the City’s policy that individual property owners are
responsible for maintaining their side sewers. If a problem occurs, it is the property owner’s
responsibility to contact a private plumber to investigate and correct the problem. Therefore, no
discussion of side sewers is provided below.
7.6.1 Maintenance Priorities
Wastewater Maintenance Services has developed a program to maintain the existing system.
First level of priority is the inspection and maintenance of the portions of the system that are
known to have problems if not handled on a weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annual basis. This
includes the inspection and maintenance of lift stations, areas of known root problems, and
areas of known grease problems.
The second level of priority is the routine inspection and maintenance that is required to identify
any additional high priority maintenance issues and to identify potentially unexpected
conditions that may cause problems for the customers. The second level of priority includes
CCTV inspection of the system and hydraulic line cleaning. It is typically recommended by
insurers involved with utility system management that, in order to minimize claims against the
utility, the entire system should be inspected approximately every five years. Since line cleaning
is performed prior to CCTV inspec tion, this means the system is cleaned on the same cycle as
CCTV inspection.
7.6.2 Manhole Inspection and Maintenance
The City has identified problem areas in the collection system. The City’s personnel inspect the
sanitary sewer manholes in those areas on a weekly, monthly, or quarterly basis - determined by
historical maintenance needs in the area - for the following situations:
1. A visual guarantee of proper sewage conveyance.
2. Assessment of the state of solids buildup in manhole wet wells.
3. Verification of the condition of the manhole lid/cover and support rings for wear and
stability.
4. Visual affirmation of condition of sewer channels and ladder rings.
Corrective actions are taken to address any issues that are found during the inspections. The City
inspects the remaining manholes/pipes in conjunction with the video inspection program. O&M
staff perform the same inspections and any required maint enance on those manholes at that
time. The City uses a line service truck for inspection and repair of manholes and lines. It carries
parts used in sewer line repair and repairs to manholes are made as needed.
7.6.3 CCTV Inspection
Routine video inspection of the sanitary sewer system is an essential part of the maintenance
responsibilities. The City uses the NASSCO PACP methodology to assess pipes during CCTV
Inspection. Structural correction and obstructions are the primary cause of line failure in sanitary
sewer pipes. Operational deficiencies, such as FOG build up, are also noted. Routine inspections
of the lines are crucial to be aware of potential trouble spots. Sewage spill claims have proven to
be a very costly type of litigation for municipalities to deal with and routing video inspection of
the sewer system is the first line of defense.
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 7
7-8 | JULY 2022| FINAL
The City has recently implemented a new CCTV inspection program that includes purchase and
installation of the latest version of CUES Granite Net CCTV software, purchase of new CCTV
trucks and cameras, and the development of a risk-based condition assessment program.
7.6.3.1 CCTV Inspection Equipment
Since the 2012 OMP, t he City has invested in a CCTV truck, camera equipment, updates to the
CUES Granite Net, and information technology (IT) to support the new equipment and software.
The City purchased a customized CCTV inspection truck that includes the following major
equipment: hybrid freightliner step van with inverter, safe entry/exit bumper,
transporter/camera lockable storag e compartment, TV step van exterior lighting & viewing
room, roof top air conditioner with heat strip, file cabinet under viewing room desktop, wall
mounted storage cabinet mounted above desktop, and bench seat in viewing room. The
inspection truck included a new solid state color sewer TV camera with pan, rotate, and zoom
head. Additionally, the truck is equipped with a self-propelled lateral inspection / evaluation
system.
7.6.3.2 CCTV Software
The CUES Granite Net program contains tabular and graphical data on sewer assets, inspections,
conditions, defects and inspection photos and videos. The City’s IT and software allow the sewer
condition data, with associated photos and videos, to be collected via the Granite Net CCTV
process and automatically transferred and/or linked to ArcGIS for spatial analysis and reporting.
New and updated sewer pipeline and manhole asset data from ArcGIS is also automatically
transferred to Granite Net, along with the latest GIS spatial data, in order to provide the latest
information to the CCTV operations staff. The updated software also interfaces with modules for
a variety of different users and specialized functions.
7.6.3.3 NASSCO Rating and Scoring
The City uses the NASSCO system of rating the collection system to maintain consistent and
reliable data on condition. This includes standards of the PACP standard compatible mainline
information (Main Assets, Main Inspections and Main Observations). CCTV operators are trained
and well versed in NASSCO system coding. The City uses its own inspection methodology for
manholes and laterals that is focused on identifying assets for rehabilitation.
7.6.3.4 CCTV Driven Improvements
City operators make point repairs to critical pipe defects identified through the CCTV Inspection.
Repairs are made following the CCTV Inspection; depending on availability of necessary
operators, equipment, and customer notifications.
The City pursues preventative maintenance through its annual Pipe Replacement and
Rehabilitation program. The Program bids out a large replace or rehabilitate aging pipes project
each year to address aging infrastructure, typically in the same general area (rather than spread
out over the entire system). To assist with identifying areas, the City has developed a decision
support tool to help determine areas of pipes and structures to rehabilitate or replace based on
historical CCTV Inspection scoring.
CHAPTER 7 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 7-9
7.6.4 Root Cutting
Routine sewer facility inspection commonly identifies root intrusion within both private and
public sewer mains. If the problem is within the City ROW, the City will correct the problem and
remove the root.
A hydraulic root cutter is used to routinely remove roots that accumulate within sewer lines
creating flow restrictions and blockages. Numerous lines throughout the City have been
examined and discovered to have had a history of problems created by roots. These particular
lines require root removal more frequently to ensure there is no interruption of flow.
7.6.5 Grease Removal
Grease problems are typically associated with major food processing operations, the majority of
which involves restaurants where grease is released into the conveyance system. Many of the
older restaurants within the City do not have grease removal systems while newer restaurants
have been and will continue to be required to install grease removal systems. Despite the
implementation of grease removal systems, many are not properly maintained. Grease buildup
problems occur most often in the side sewers; however, som e grease buildup problems also
occur in the sanitary sewer collection system. When problems do occur, the City maintenance
crews are usually called out to investigate. A proper monitoring program reduces maintenance
time involved in removing grease buildup.
The City has achieved moderate success in noting problems and identifying the sources. The
Wastewater Utility has also worked with new construction and implemented tenant
improvements to ensure that these users are installing proper grease removal system s and/or
bio-agent facilities. The City has a grease removal program for standard food-services
establishments and multi-family housing to improve grease collection at these locations.
7.6.6 Hydraulic Line Cleaning
Jetting a sanitary sewer pipe is the principal means of cleaning the line portion of the sewer of
sludge, debris, or obstruction. Hydraulic Line Cleaning is a common means of addressing acute
and preventative maintenance concerns, as well as performed prior to CCTV Inspection. The
sewer lines are clean ed with a vacuum -high velocity cleaning/jetting truck which performs two
primary functions: vacuuming and jetting. A hose with a special end fitting is inserted into a pipe
and high-pressure water (up to 2,500 pounds per square inch) is sent through the hose. The
high-pressure water exits the small hole at the tip of the cone fitting, breaking down the sludge
and obstructions. The hose is propelled down the length of the pipe via the numerous other
holes found in the end fitting. The hose is inserted throug h a manhole into the pipe and the line
is jetted to the next manhole. The hose is then retracted via a motor driven reel system back to
the entry manhole. All of the sludge/debris is scoured toward the entry manhole because the
spraying water forces it in that direction and is vacuumed out as required.
There are a number of lines in the City that have inconsistent grades, creating septic conditions
within the lines. A part of the maintenance program is to use the Vac-Con to flush water through
these particu lar lines periodically to prevent those conditions from occurring until the inverted
slope can be reconfigured. The Vac -Con is the primary equipment used for emergency blockages
in the lines and is used to assist TV inspection.

7-10 | JULY 2022| FINAL
7.6.7 Repair Sewers and Clear Plu gs
When problems with the sewers are identified through the preventative maintenance program
described above, repairs are made to the infrastructure or clogs are removed. The preventative
maintenance program is efficient and typically represents only one percent of the maintenance
manhour allotment.
7.6.8 Easements and Access Road Maintenance
In addition to public roads, the City operates, maintains, repairs and constructs sewer mains, and
lines in, over, along, and under roads and easements located within the sewer service area. As
the utility performs work within the easements, minor roadwork and improvements are
necessary. All work done within the easements is done in accordance to any permits and City
and KC standards. Note, the Street and Surface Water Maintenance crews conduct maintenance
for the Wastewater Utility along road right of ways and other areas where work efforts overlap.
7.7 Lift Station Operations and Maintenance
The City maintains 20 lift stations throughout the system. The pump crew’s primary goal is to
maintain stations to minimize damage to property due to wastewater overflows. The
Wastewater has two operators dedicated to lift station maintenance that includes daily
inspections and regular preventative maintenance. The City maintains an O&M Manual for each
lift station. It is recommended the City review and update, as necessary, these manuals and
associated Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) during the next OMP update.
7.7.1 Lift Station Inspection and Maintenance
Lift station inspection and maintenance involves weekly, monthly, and annual t asks which align
with preventative and corrective maintenance procedures. The following describes the
inspection and maintenance program for the sewage lift stations and wet well facilities:
7.7.1.1 Sewage Lift Stations
The City has on-call staff 24 -hours per day. They also perform a daily inspection of the telemetry
at each station.
Every week the City performs an inspection of each lift station. This weekly inspection includes a
security check, recording pump motor hours, checking motor noise, temperature, and vibration.
The City changes all filters, cleans electrodes, exercises all valves, and runs each emergency
generator on a monthly basis.
On an annual basis, the City checks the pump bearings and seals, tests the entire electrical
system at each station, and performs an infrared test of the system.
7.7.1.2 Wet Well Facilities
On a weekly basis, the City checks the security, float settings, and operation of each wet well.
The City washes down, checks the interior condition, ladders, hatches, etc. in each wet well .
The City performs a pump down of each wet well once a year. They take this time to clean the
wet well.
The lift station crew uses a vehicle equipped with a crane to lift pumps, equipment, utility
compartments for parts, tools, etc. for the lift station maintenance program.
CHAPTER 7 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 7-11
7.7.2 Telemetry (SCADA)
Successful operation of any municipal sewer system requires that t he municipality maintains a
comprehensive maintenance program and that they obtain accurate sewage flow rate
information. A telemetry and control system is the means by which flow rates are measured and
maintenance needs are updated.
The SCADA system collects data from the City’s lift stations which is then continually stored on
servers at the shops. The SCADA information is only used when someone makes a query which is
usually related to lift station evaluation. Data compiled by SCADA includes inflow, outflow,
pump run times, and pump starts. The civil engineers have access to the SCADA and control
subconsultant (RH2 Engineering), which helps the City maintain the system. The current system
occasionally experiences communication failures and ot her issues that cause data errors. The
City has planned SCADA systems, in collaboration with the Water Utility, which is anticipated
resolve communication failures and provide additional monitoring and analysis features.
The master telemetry unit, located at the City Shop, includes an intelligent telephone dialer
alarm system, so that critical alarms can be relayed to on -duty maintenance personnel even
during a telemetry system failure.
7.8 Predictive Repair and Replacement Program
The City is currently expanding its Asset Management Program, which is described in more
detail in Chapter 6 – Replacement & Rehabilitation Program. The City's asset management
program prioritized asset renewal schedule and costs and is closely tied to O&M activities.
7.9 Emergency Response
The City’s Overflow Emergency Response Plan (OERP) provides measures to protect public
health and the environment in the event of a sanitary sewer overflow (SSO). Historically,
overflows have not been related to lack of capacity of the system. There has been one overflow
in the past 10 years. This occurred on August 9 , 2021 at 505 Rainier Ave N between MH0619 and
MH0615 and was related to FOG. FOG O&M is described in Section 7.10 below. The City may
also develop project specific emergency response plans, as required.
In addition to OERP, the Wastewater Utility participates in the City’s Comprehensive Emergency
Response Plan and the broader Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan. In the case of these wider
emergencies, the Wastewater Utility follows the direction of the Emergency Operation Center or
other responsible official.
7.10 FOG Source Control
Maintenance issues such as blockages and overflows can be caused or increased by FOG that is
discharged into the system. Controlling discharge into the collection system can assist in
enhancing and improving the collection system performance.
FOG buildup problems occur most often in the side sewers. However, some FOG buildup
problems also occur in the sanitary sewer collection system. When problems do occur, the City
maintenance crews are usually called out to investigate. A proper monitoring program reduces
maintenance time involved in removing grease buildup. Additionally, the City has worked with
new construction and tenant improvements to ensure that these users are installing proper
grease removal systems and/or bio -agent facilities.
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 7
7-12 | JULY 2022| FINAL
Property owners may need to inspect or maintain their grease traps on a weekly basis depending
on how much FOG enters the drains. The City recommends property owners inspect to clean
grease interceptors at least twice a year. Establishments suspected of causing problems to the
collection system may be inspected by the City. Depending on how full the grease trap is the City
will rate the condition to be good, fair, or poor. Traps in fair condition are advised to monitor the
buildup and maintenance schedule and increase frequency as necessary. If the trap is in poor
condition, the establishment is issued a compliance order and will need to clean the trap
immediately. After cleaning, the est ablishment is required to contact the City within 30 days to
verify the grease has been properly cleaned.
The OMP identified multiple items for future effort with regard to the FOG program, including
identifying regulatory requirements, summarizing the FOG Control Plan and training, identifying
performance measures, and conducting a program evaluation.
7.11 System Infrastructure Capacity
The City has developed several tools and activities for determining system capacity such as
hydraulic models, flow monitoring, and field investigation. The key elements of the program are
to identify existing areas of the system with capacity deficiencies and to confirm the available
hydraulic capacity for development. The City's hydraulic computer model is the main tool used
for this identification. The purpose of this model is 1) to evaluate the existing sanitary sewer
system and determine areas of capacity constraint, and 2) to provide a tool for planning future
improvements.
The analysis of the hydraulic capacity of the system is presented in Chapter 5 – System Analysis
and Results. The analysis includes evaluation of the City’s facilities for system capacity to address
both system deficiencies and potential development within the City’s sewer service area. The CIP
for capac ity projects is developed from the LRWWMP and is maintain ed and updated annually
by Wastewater Utility Director.
7.12 Design and Construction
Utility Systems lead the City’s program to ensure proper design, construction, and inspection as
necessary to enable the collection system projects. Design involves converting the projects
identified in the planning process to paper to provide a set of doc uments (plans and
specifications) that will be used to construct the facilities. Construction involves building the
actual facilities that are planned and designed. Inspection helps resolve issues that arise during
construction and confirms that the facilities are constructed as planned and designed.
7.12.1 Design
Most designs are completed in house by the Utility Systems Project Managers. Projects may be
contracted out if the Utility Systems department is too overloaded, the project involves a lift
station, or it involves significant environmental issues. Design projects are selected based on th is
Plan and follow the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) Standards, the Orange
Book, Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Standards, and the City’s
adopted supplements and amendments. The pump station design standards are not
documented, but institutional design standards exist. The City has recently updated its standard
details and specifications, which are provided in Appendix J, Standard Details and Specifications.
This update, in part, coordinated the standard details between the City’s Development Services
and its Utilities.
CHAPTER 7 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 7-13
All designs involve appropriate City staff, including Construction Inspectors, lift station
technicians, Maintenance Services, and Development Services.
7.12.2 Construction
The construction contractor is typically determined by competitive bidding; however, other
forms of selection such as emergency direct award or sole source are sometimes applied. The
project must be constructed as designed using the materials and procedures specified. The City
must approve any significant changes, and these changes should be documented.
7.12.3 Inspection
Utility Systems does not select the inspectors for construction observation. All inspections are
coordinated by the Development Services Department. Utility Systems allows the inspector
assigned to the project to dictate the level of involvement that the Utility Systems has during
construction.
The inspector’s main goal is to ensure that the project is constructed as designed and specified.
The inspection for a collection system project verifies that the pipe and appurtenances have
been installed correctly for line and grade and with the proper materials. The inspector witnesses
tests of installed pipe. Construction administration, including Requests for Information (RFIs)
and submittals, is typically lead by Wastewater Utility Engineers.
The City requires CCTV of new sewer lines to be completed after construction. Currently this
CCTV information is not used to establish a baseline for subsequent inspections.
7.13 Legal Authority
The City’s collection system is municipally owned, operated and maintained. It is managed by
the City’s Public Works Department. The customer is responsible for the maintenance and
condition of the laterals from the point of connection back to the property. The City has the
authority to operate, maintain, and administer a wastewater system through ordinances, service
agreements, or other legally binding procedures. Additional information on the City's legal
authority, policies, and standards can be found in Chapter 3 – Operational Policies and Criteria.
7.14 Safety, Training, and Certification
Training opportunities are of such high priority to effective operation of the system th at the City
has linked them to its overall personnel evaluation program. Employees are evaluated and
promoted through a set of job categories with pay commensurate to the category. It is essential
that the promotional program continue to be closely linked with the training program, not only
because it promotes efficient operation, but also because mandatory certification of wastewater
utility workers is required by the state. The State Department of Health stipulates qualifications
and training requirements for obtaining and maintaining certification.
7.15 Interagency Coordination
Communication and outreach with customers, constituents, and other stakeholders is critical to
effectively manage a wastewater collection system. To be effective, communications must be
ongoing, open, timely, and two-way with reciprocal information sharing. Key stakeholders for
collection system operators include policymakers, customers, local residents and businesses,
regulatory agencies, local health officials, environmental organizations, community and business
groups, neighboring agencies and systems, and employees. Effective communications with each
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 7
7-14 | JULY 2022| FINAL
of these groups will require different techniques that are tailored to specific interests,
perspectives, and each situation. Additional information on interagency communication can be
found in Chapter 1 – Introduction and Chapter 3 – Operational Policies and Criteria.
7.16 Financial Program
The City’s primary objective is to maintain an adequate revenue stream and implement effective
accounting practices to support the effective management of the system. This is accomplished
through financial programs such as the biennial budget process with mid-bi correction as
needed , the development of the CIP and Rehabilitation and Replacement Program. Additional
information on the financial program can be found in Chapter 8 – Capital Improvement Program .
The financial program is conducted in cooperation with the Administrative Services Division
based on input from Wastewater Utility staff.
7.17 Administrative Duties and Facility/Equipment Maintenance
Administrative duties as well as facility and equipment maintenance are crucial components to
the success of t he Wastewater Utility. Administrative tasks are broad-sweeping and require
multiple skillsets of staff to complete. Additionally, the OMP maintains all new equipment and
facilities maintenances procedures.
7.17.1 Administrative Duties
The key administrative duty of the City’s O&M staff is to establish routine operation duties and
schedules. Routine operations involve the analysis, formulation, and implementation of
procedures to ensure that the sanitary sewer facilities are functioning efficiently. The utility's
maintenance procedures work well. Repairs are made promptly so customers do not experience
unnecessary inconvenience.
7.17.2 Tools and Equipment
Sewer O&M staff is equipped primarily with City-owned equipment. The equipment available for
daily use includes rolling stock, shop tools and incidental equipment, as well as other portable
equipment for field use. City Operators are responsible for cleaning, maintenance, and repair on
all non-rolling stock tools equipment. The rolling stock - specialized vehicles, such as Vacuum
Trucks and the CCTV Inspection Truck, and trucks/vehicles - repaired and maintained by the
Fleet Maintenance Section.
For Fleet Maintenance, t he Wastewater Utility works with Fleet Services for procurement of parts
and to maintain a standard of service for each vehicle. IT has become an important tool for O&M ,
including GIS based CMMS and asset inventory. As previously described, the IT department
maintains all information technology with assistance from Wastewater Utility Staff (as necessary),
including specialized software, database servers, etc.
7.18 Work Force Estimates
The wastewater utility is staffed by both Maintenance Services and Utility Systems teams. The
primary roles of each team, summary of programs, and estimated staffing levels have been
summarized in preceding sections.
CHAPTER 7 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 7-15
7.18.1 Future Resource Recommendations
The LRWWMP evaluations have identified recommended projects and programs that will require
additional future resources. Resources that are responsible for the City’s wastewater operations
are currently divided across multiple department and divisions. These resources include the
following positions and area of responsibilities:
• Information and IT Support - Wastewater operations-related support functions that are
currently provided include approximately 0.1 full-time equivalent (FTE).
• Electronic Document Management System (EDMS)/ECM Support - It is recommended
the City provide 0.25 FTE of resources to support increased use of LaserFiche EDMS and
future ECM efforts (SharePoint).
• Hydraulic Model Support - It is recommended the City provide 0.25 FTE of resources to
support improved integration of the MikeUrban hydraulic model with GIS and SCADA.
• Outside Support- Outside consultants and contractors currently provide support for the
MikeUrban hydraulic model and Wonderware SCADA system. These resources are
required on an interim basis when there are major upgrades to infrastructure, such as lift
stations, that require changes to SCADA, and when master plan updates are completed
that include changes to the hydraulic model.
7.18.2 Emergency Operations
Emergency operations are the unplanned and unscheduled tasks needed to keep the system in
operation. The primary objectives of these procedures are to ensure public safety, restore
essential services as quickly as possible, and to provide assistance to other areas as required. This
would include responding to sewer blockages, pipes broken by construction, and damage to the
system by acts of nature. All of the O&M staff are also available to aid any of the other sections
with additional manpower or equipment.
The Wastewater O&M staff has the responsibility to keep the system operating when there are
power or mechanical failures at lift stations. The City’s telemetry system allows for 24-hour
remote monitoring and access to the system by the crew. With this access, they can be alerted to
a problem and correct it rem otely, determine that it can wait until the next shift, or mobilize the
necessary manpower and equipment. The City follows all Ecology guidelines for emergency
notification procedures. The City’s emergency response plan is focused on SSO notifications and
is summarized in Section 7.9 above.
7.18.3 Maintenance Services Staffing
Currently, t here are eight FTE, including supervisory personnel and maintenance workers, who
operate and maintain the wastewater system. The tasks that are performed by wastewater
utility staff include inspection, testing, installation and repair of system facilities and preventive
maintenance, corrective maintenance, record keeping, administrative tasks, training, and
response to emergencies.
The estimated FTE hours of work required to adeq uately maintain the sanitary sewer system are
shown in Table 7.2. For maintenance activities, the annual FTE hours total seven. The FTE hours
of work required for operational tasks for the sanitary sewer system are shown in Table 7.3. For
operational tasks, the annual FTE hours total two. For adequate maintenance of the sanitary
sewer system, the City would need a total of approximately 17,081 hours (the sum of O&M tasks)
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 7
7-16 | JULY 2022| FINAL
worked per year. The City spends approximately 14,350 hours per year on O&M. This is
approximately 2,731 hours short of the hours estimated for O&M of the sanitary sewer system.
The size of the maintenance crew should be increased to carry the full workload of the Utility
without neglecting preventive maintenance, emergency preparedness, record keeping, or safety
precautions. Further staff increases should be tied to the actual growth of the sewer system. An
expansion of the system requiring new service connections and/or additional facilities, without
enlargement of the staff, will result in diminished levels of service for all maintenance programs.
In view of predicted population growth in the service area over the next several years and the
growing demand for sanitary sewer service, an increase in the size of the sewer system could be
pro jected to continue at a similar rate of growth. With that increase in demand, there may be a
need for additional staff.
As shown in Table 7.2, the City would like to add an additional two operators to increase their
maintenance activity FTE from 7 to 9. These operators would assist in doubling the amount of
CCTV inspection, which then increases the need for root cutting, grease removal, and hydraulic
line cleaning. Manhole inspections, sewer repairs, and unscheduled maintenance would not
increase and would only be performed as needed. The City plans to use the CIP to repair
non-point source sewer in a cost effective matter.
The City also plans to increase staff time from 2 FTE to 2.5 FTE as shown in Table 7.3. By
doubling administrative duties, the City may have a separate full-time wastewater manager and
surface water manager.
Maintenance and technical staff additions may be accompanied by additions to the clerical,
secretarial, and other support staff needed to ensure that record keeping, billing, public
relations, communications, and other general functions of support staff are performed with the
accuracy and timeliness required.

7.18.4 Wastewater Utility Engineering Staff
The City is not looking to increase their staff as number of capital projects are not anticipated to
increase in the next six years. They don’t work on their own, but in coordination with
“development” which is found on the organization chart.
The current engineering staff organization is described in Section ͳ.ͯ of this Chapter. The
engineering staff is responsible for two major tasks, administrative and capital improvement
projects.
The various tasks and the hours of work are described in relevant sections within the Chapter, as
summarized in Table ͳ.Ͱ. The number of hours required for each task is not easily defined.
Additional administrative tasks that are recommended in this LRWWMP are ͭ) prepare new
ordinances and revise existing ordinances, ͮ) setup and administer grease trap management and
certification ordinance, ͯ) inventory and update hydraulic computer model, and Ͱ) perform
computer analyses using the sewer system hydraulic model. These tasks will require additional
City staff or other resource staffing alternatives.

Chapter 8
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
8.1 Introduction
This chapter summarizes the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for the City of Renton’s (City)
Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan (LRWWMP). The purpose of this chapter is to
describe the CIP projects and programs including pipeline, lift station, and general facility types.
The CIP consists of the cost estimates and schedules for the recommended improvements. This
CIP was developed in 2019. Therefore, there are projects planned for 2020 outlined in this CIP
that will have passed before the adoption of this Plan in 2022.
The following sections present cost estimating assumptions, the recommended projects,
estimated costs of each individual project, and a summary of the CIP.
8.2 Cost Estimating Assumptions
The cost estimates presented in this CIP are opinions developed from bid tabulations, cost
curves, information obtained from previous studies, and Carollo Engineers, Inc.’s experience on
other projects. The cost estimates have been prepared for the general master planning
purposes. Capital costs, or “total project costs,” are presented in the CIP.
All costs are in 2019 dollars and were developed using a Class 5 budget estimate, as established
by the American Associate of Cost Estimators (AACE). The Engineering News Report (ENR)
Construction Cost Index for a 20-city average for July 2019 is 11293. This level of estimate is used
for master planning and assumes a 0 percent to 2 percent level or project definition. The
expected accuracy range is minus 30 percent to plus 50 percent.
8.2.1 Baseline Cost Assumptions
This is the total estimated construction cost, in dollars, of the proposed improvement for
pipelines and lift stations. All cost estimates provided in this CIP represent total project cost
including materials, construction, engineering, legal, and administrative costs. Costs were
represented as unit costs, as described in subsequent sections.
8.2.1.1 Gravity Sewer Unit Costs
For pipes, Baseline Construction Costs are calculated by multiplying the estimated new pipe
length by a proposed unit cost. These improvements involve a series of assumptions to develop
a cost per linear foot (lf). All of the known pipelines involved in this CIP are between 6 inches
and 24 inches.
The gravity sewer unit costs provided are for typical open-cut installation with stable soil at an
average depth of 15 feet. Costs include manhole installation at every 300 foot interval,
excavation, hauling, soldier piles, wood lagging shoring, pipe materials and installation, backfill
material and installation, and pavement replacement for a two lane width roadway. Costs do not
include erosion and sediment control, individual side sewers, traffic control, or other general
conditions. Open-cut costs listed by pipeline diameter are available in Table 8.1.

Gravity sewer rehabilitation for typical right-of-way pipelines can be completed through
cost-effective cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) which varies in construction cost per linear foot. CIPP
estimates are shown in Table 8.2. CIPP costs include pre-inspection, installation, lateral
reinstatement, post-inspection closed-circuit television (CCTV), traffic control, and bypass
pumping. Traffic control is assumed for a collector street.

8.2.1.2 Force Main Rehabilitation/Replacement Costs
Recent force main (FM) rehabilitation and replacement costs were obtained from the City’s
current Wastewater Utility Capital Improvement Program. An average cost per FM rehabilitation
was used for future cost estimating by using the total amount spent to-date by the City of
$2.28 million (M) for all 19 FMs. This determined the rehabilitation/replacement cost of $120,000
per FM.
FM assessment includes the same criteria as lift station assessment which may include one or
more of the following: addition of flow meters, engine generator installation, noise abatement,
slope stabilization, FM cleanouts, FM maintenance evaluation, FM replacement, manhole or
vault improvements, and environmental/agency elements.
8.2.1.3 Lift Station Unit Costs
Recent lift station rehabilitation projects completed by the City were compiled to create the lift
station rehabilitation cost. This cost was used to estimate lift station repair and upgrade projects
in the City’s CIP. As detailed in the 2019 Wastewater Utility Capital Investment Program, all
CHAPTER 8 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 8-3
previous 20 lift stations were replaced, rehabilitated, or eliminated within the 25-year span. The
total amount spent on rehabilitation of all lift stations to-date by the City is $2.8 M. This
determined the rehabilitation cost of $140,000 per low to moderately-low lift station. A similar
cost will be derived by the City for high to moderately-high lift station rehabilitation.
The assessment for rehabilitation of lift stations may include one or more of the following: pump
replacement, motor control replacement, telemetry improvements, addition of flow meters,
engine generator installation, noise abatement, slope stabilization, structural adjustments to the
wet well, assessment of coatings, wet well recoating, temp wet well system, FM cleanouts, FM
maintenance evaluation, FM replacement, manhole or vault improvements, structural engine
generator pad changes, structural control room changes, miscellaneous structural
improvements such as telemetry, and environmental/agency elements.
8.2.2 Total Capital Improvement Cost
The costs presented in this LRWWMP are high-level planning costs to help the City in making
financial decisions. A planning contingency cost will be added to the Total Allied Project Cost to
account for unforeseen events and unexpected conditions through the design process of these
projects.
As shown in the following sample calculation of the capital improvement cost, the total cost of
all project contingencies (construction and planning) and allied costs (engineering services,
construction management, and project administration) is 82 percent of the baseline construction
cost.
Example:
Baseline Construction Cost $1,000,000
City Administrative (10%) $100,000
Design (20%) $200,000
Construction (10%) $100,000
Admin, Design, & Construction $1,400,000
Scope Contingency (30%) $420,000
Total Capital Improvement Cost $1,820,000
8.3 Capital Improvement Program
As discussed in Chapter 5 – System Analysis and Results and Chapter 6 – Replacement and
Rehabilitation Program, the CIPs are prioritized based on their urgency and risk to mitigate
deficient systems. The timing for implementing these improvement projects is based on the
affordability and urgency of the project. It is recommended that the City monitor growth and
adjust project implementation accordingly.

8.3.1 Planning Periods
The following terms are used to define timing and prioritization into three planning periods:
• Short-term (2020 - 2025). Proposed facilities determined to be a high priority.
• Medium-term (2026 - 2029). Proposed facilities determined to be a medium priority or
proposed facilities to service major growth areas to be developed in the medium-term.
• Long-term (2030 - 2039). Proposed facilities determined to be a low priority or
proposed facilities to service major growth areas to be developed in the long-term.
8.3.2 Project and Program Naming
The CIP projects were named based on the facility type.
8.3.3 Project Types
In the current Wastewater Utility Capital Investment Program, projects are categorized by type.
These types include the following:
• “M”= Maintenance.
• “P” = Planning.
• “C” = Cross Category.
• “D” = Development.
• “R” = Regulatory.
• “A” = Acquisition.
Maintenance projects are focused on renewing infrastructure in poor condition, as
recommended and prioritized in Chapter 6 – Replacement and Rehabilitation Program. Planning
projects focus on allocating miscellaneous/emergency funds or including funds for long-term or
operational planning. Development projects are designated based upon projected growth and
flow volume; no development projects were identified in this CIP. Similarly, no CIP projects are
listed under the acquisition or regulatory categories.
8.3.4 Capital Improvement Program by Year
An individual Project Sheet was generated for each CIP project and includes project identifiers,
description, costs, project type, and comments to aid in future implementation. A location map
is included for projects that are located in a specific area. To aid in finding individual projects,
Project Sheets have been separated in sections by facility type:
• “LS” = Lift Station.
• “P” = Pipeline.
• “G” = General.
Lift Station projects addresses the City’s 20 traditional lift station / FM and the unique
Kennydale Lake Line System. Pipeline Projects address capacity and rehabilitation and
replacement of the gravity sewer system. General Sewer project support the capital projects
through long-term and operational planning, as well as various smaller miscellaneous projects.
A summary of all CIP projects by facility type and project type is shown in Table 8.4. A summary
of costs by project category and type is presented at the end of the chapter.

8.4 Lift Station Projects
The City is completing the current series of lift station rehabilitation in 2020. It is anticipated the
City’s lift stations will require additional rehabilitation by the end of the planning period, given
the useful life of non-structural components and continued preventative maintenance of
structural elements Other major projects include the Kennydale Lake Line Upgrade and Renewal
projects will allow long-term operation of the system and renewal in the long-term. Prioritization
of long-term rehabilitation of the lift station and FM projects are based on risk.
8.4.1 LS-01: Lift Station Rehabilitation
The Wastewater Utility operates 20 lift stations throughout the City. At this point, the City is
going into the maintenance/rehabilitation phase for each of the stations. In 2016, the City
completed the process of evaluating the needs for each station. The second phase of full
rehabilitation of lift stations began in 2017 and will be completed in 2020. The cost for this has
been reported by the City at $900,000 in 2020.
8.4.2 LS-02: Force Main Rehabilitation/Replacement
The Wastewater Utility operates lift stations that each have their own FM that delivers the flow
to the gravity system. While many of the lift stations have been either rehabilitated or replaced,
their FMs often times were not. In 2016, a FM evaluation was completed that prioritized FMs.
The replacement and rehabilitation of FMs identified began in 2016 and will be complete
in 2020. The estimated cost is $400,000 in 2020.
8.4.3 LS-03: Telemetry Upgrade
The telemetry and control system records and stores flow rates and alarms for each lift station,
which is then monitored in a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system. SCADA
can then be accessed by the operations and maintenance (O&M) team, as well as engineers, to
help the City monitor infrastructure. This system occasionally experiences communication and
other issues that result in data errors which can be critical at times. Automatically generated
reports are a benefit of the updated SCADA. It is currently anticipated that the system will be
updated every five years. The cost for this has been reported by the City to be $300,000 and is
planned for 2023.
8.4.4 LS-04: Devil’s Elbow Stream Bank Study
It is recommended that the City monitor the condition of stream banks adjacent to the
Devil’s Elbow lift station and evaluate alternatives to armor the bank to protect the lift station
and FM. The timing for this project is recommended to be completed in the short-term. The
FM length is 506 LF with 6 inch diameter. The Level 5 AACE estimated cost for this project
is $180,000 in the short-term.
8.4.5 LS-05: Kennydale Lake Line Sewer Upgrade
The Kennydale Lake Line Sewer System Improvement Project will allow long-term operation of
the system. This program includes design and construction of a preferred alternative:
1) Lake Line System rehabilitation and repair or 2) Replacement with Individual Lift Stations. The
City has budgeted a total of $1.7 M for 2019 and $1.7 M for 2020 for a total of $3.4 M for this
effort.

8.4.6 LS-06: Kennydale Lake Line Renewal
The Kennydale Lake Line Sewer System Evaluation identified multiple options for the replacing
the system at the end of its usable life. For budgetary purposes, the least expensive option,
Individual Lift Stations, for $8 M will be budgeted in the long-term. For additional details, see the
2019 Kennydale Lake Line Sewer System Evaluation Phase 2B and 3 Summary Report.
8.4.7 LS-07 Low and Moderately-Low Risk Lift Station and Force Main Rehabilitation
This project addresses long-term renewal needs for existing facilities. Lift stations and FMs in the
moderately-low to low risk categories are recommended to be evaluated for rehabilitation in the
long-term, which are listed in Table 8.4. The recommended rehabilitation is consistent with the
City’s historical Lift Station rehabilitation schedule.

8.5 Pipeline Projects
Pipeline projects address aging gravity sewer and the City’s relatively few pipe capacity
deficiencies. The rehabilitation and replacement is the largest City expense during the planning
period. These pipeline projects may involve full replacement with open-cut installation or
rehabilitation through CIPP. To identify and plan for replacement and rehabilitation activities,
the CIP includes condition assessments to identify deficiency and timing, infiltration and
inflow (I/I) micro-monitoring, and verification of capacity deficiencies through long-term
monitoring. All pipeline projects are shown in Figure 8.1.
8.5.1 Sanitary Sewer Main Replacement/Rehabilitation
The City’s annual Sanitary Sewer Main Replacement/Rehabilitation Program identifies and
repairs, rehabilitates, or replaces sewer pipe. Activities are mainly prioritized based on risk. Pipe
risk will be updated throughout the planning period through routine CCTV inspections and
required maintenance and any changes in criticality. More advanced condition assessment may
be conducted for high risk pipes.
The program currently prioritizes high and moderately-high risk pipes, as defined in this
LRWWMP and shown in Figure 8.2. However, lower risk pipes may be addressed when
cost-effective.
Program costs for the planning period are based on:
• Full open-cut replacement of all high-risk sewer pipes (54,000 LF) with a cost of
$35.16 M.
• Rehabilitation (CIPP) of approximately half of the moderately-high sanitary
sewers (177,000 LF) with an annual cost of $27.32 M.
• Gravity Sewer condition assessment budgetary placeholder of $50,000.
The total cost of this program is $62.54 M in the short-, medium-, and long-term.
The actual method of sanitary sewer main replacement or rehabilitation will be determined
through site-specific design. The program is administered through separate annual budget line
items.

8.5.10 P-09: Sewer Capacity Improvements 2021-2024
Pipe capacity improvements have been categorized together due to the need for infrastructure
replacement, rather than rehabilitation, due to lack of pipe hydraulic capacity. Pipe capacity
improvements were based on the City’s calibrated sewer hydraulic model to address either pipe
size or adverse slope segments. Details on the deficiencies, locations, and other parameters are
shown in Table 8.6 and Figure 8.2:
• The total length of pipe upsizing is 5,497 LF and will cost $3.64 M.
• The cost for reconfiguration of 3,440 LF of adverse slope pipe is $2.17 M.
The total $5.81 M in expenses are estimated for the short-, medium-, and long-term.

8.6 General Projects
General programmatic projects involve necessary funding which cannot be allocated to a specific
facility type. These projects involve implementation and compliance with regulatory
requirements such as the Wastewater Operations Master Plan (OMP). Additionally, future
miscellaneous and emergency projects for all infrastructure types have been allocated as general
projects.
8.6.1 G-01: Wastewater Operations Master Plan
This project will be an update to the Wastewater OMP created by the City. The purpose of the
OMP is to document current procedures and programs into an O&M manual and review existing
programs for effectiveness and compliance of potential future regulatory requirements.
Additionally, the OMP analyzes and recommends program improvements in accordance with
the City’s long-term goals and objectives. Based on the City’s existing resources and
implementation budget, it is recommended to implement this OMP over 5 years. The cost for
this OMP is estimated by the City as $600,000 in 2020.
8.6.2 G-02: Long-Range Wastewater Master Plan
The LRWWMP considers a 20-year planning period for the analysis of existing and projected
conditions. The sewage collection system’s operational and capital requirements are detailed to
achieve the City’s operational goals and fulfill regulatory requirements. The cost is estimated
at $300,000 in 2024.
8.6.3 G-03: Sanitary Sewer Hydraulic Model
As discussed in Chapter 7 – Operations and Maintenance in the System Infrastructure Capacity,
the City has a hydraulic model that allows them to evaluate the existing sanitary sewer system
and determine areas of capacity constraint, and provide a tool for planning future
improvements. The model needs to be updated as the system expands, and flow monitoring and
physical system data is collected by survey or field inspection. The cost is estimated by the City
as $600,000 over two years in the short-term for the model to be updated in 2021 and 2022.
8.6.4 G-04: Miscellaneous / Emergency Projects
This project is to perform small repairs, replacements, or installations of sewers that are not
scheduled in the CIP, but become a priority due to unexpected problems, failures, or
coordination with other projects. This could also include service to planned annexation areas and
any future new pipeline extensions. Based on historical spending, the cost is estimated by the
City as $200,000 annually, or $4.0 M, in the short-, medium-, and long-term planning horizon.
8.7 Summary of CIP
Altogether, recommend improvements include eight lift station projects, eleven pipelines, and
four general projects. The majority of projects are allocated as maintenance projects at $80.94 M
of the total $96.87 M. Cross category projects follow at $10.25 M, as well as planning projects
at $5.68 M. Seventy-seven percent of short-term project funding is allocated to pipelines with
general at nine percent. In the short-term, lift stations require the remaining fourteen percent of
funding.
CITY OF RENTON | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CHAPTER 8
8-18 |JULY 2022 | FINAL
The CIP recommends investing $26.97 M into the wastewater system during short-term. The
annual short-term cost for all recommended programs is approximately $4.5 M per year from
2020 to 2025. For medium-term, the CIP recommends an additional $17.8 M be invested to
continue these programs. The annual medium-term cost is approximately $4.45 M per year from
2026 to 2039. For long-term, the CIP recommends $52.1 M be invested to continue to maintain
the sewer system. The annual long-term cost is approximately $5.21 M.
Detailed sheets for each CIP project presented in this chapter can be found in Appendix K.
Table 8.9 summarizes the total cost and annual cost for each planning period.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
9.1 Introduction
This chapter analyzes the financial status of the City of Renton’s (City’s) water utility for the
Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan (LRWWMP). The purpose of this chapt er is to
provide a cursory evaluation to show the City’s ability to finance necessary Capital Improvement
Program (CIP) projects in Chapter 8 – Capital Improvement Program .
The following sections present the City’s financial status, funding required to finance the
scheduled improvements, potential funding sources, and the impact of water system
improvements on water rates.
9.2 Historical Financial Performance
The City and King County have updated their fees and rates. In November 2021, the City
released their fee schedule for 202 1-2022, which can be found on the City’s website at
rentonwa.gov. Key rates and fees related to this Plan are summarized below.
9.2.1 Current Wastewater Rates, Fees, and Charges
The City and King County (KC) wastewater rates are summarized in Table 9.1.

The City pays for expansion of the sewer system through system development charges (SDCs).
The SDC allocation is based on a property’s associated water met er size as shown in Table 9.3.
KC also has a charge for first time connection to sanitary sewers in KC, including the City’s Sewer
Service Area, called the sewage treatment capacity charge. This charge pays for building sewage
treatment capacity to serve newly connected customers. Single-family customers pay $66.35 per
month for 15 years. It may also be paid as a lump sum of $9,927.44 to KC. This charge is
established annually and changes to the capacity charge apply only to new connections.

Total $ 7,589,088 $ 11,636,515 $ 13,859,662 $ 17,410,002 $ 18,879,201
9.2.4 Outstanding Debt
The City has outstanding debt through the Waterworks Revenue Bond debt and Public Works
Trust Fund Loans. As of 2019, the Waterworks Revenue Bond has $22.3 million (M) in
outstanding principal debt and the Public Works Trust Fund Loans have $1.9 M in outstanding
principal debt.
9.3 Financial Analysis
The City’s ability to fund its CIP was evaluated by comparing the historical and future funding
requirements. The financial analysis was developed in 2020 using 2019 data and was not
updated to reflect future years during Plan development.
9.3.1 Projected Capital Improvement Program Levels
Projected CIP is described in Chapter 8 – Capital Improvement Program and summarized in
Table 9.7 and Figure 9.1 below. The following terms are used to define timing and prioritization
into three planning periods:
• Short-term (2020 - 2025). Proposed facilities determined to be a high priority.
• Medium-term (2026 - 2029). Proposed facilities determined to be a medium priority or
proposed facilities to service major growth areas to be developed in the medium -term .
• Long-term (2030 - 2039). Proposed facilities determined to be a low priority or
proposed facilities to service major growth areas to be developed in the long -term .
Table 9.7 shows the expected cost per planning period. Comparison of annual CIP cost.
Table 9.7 CIP Planning Period Summary
Planning Period Total Cost Annual Cost
Short -term (2020 -2025) $ 26.27 M $ 4.38 M
Medium -term (2026 -2029) $ 17.79 M $ 4.45 M
Long-term (2030 -2039) $ 51.47 M $ 5.15 M
9.3.2 Financial Analysis
A Wastewater Revenue Requirement Model (WRRM) was conducted in 2018 to analyze the
future finances of the City. The LRWWMP’s CIP differs from the WRRM CIP; therefore, this
Section seeks to show the financial capacity of the LRWWMP CIP by comparing of the two CIP
CHAPTER 9 | LONG-RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN | CITY OF RENTON
FINAL | JULY 2022 | 9-5
costs. For the purpose of this analysis, all assumptions in the WRRM were considered applicable,
including expected rate increase of 2 percent from 2020 to 2024.
The differences between the proposed LRWWMP and WRRM CIP, as shown in Figure 9.1 and
Table 9.8 . The proposed LRWWMP and WRRM CIP are both in current dollars. The annual
WRRM CIP spending is $4 M from 2021 through 2024 and then $4.5 M from 2025 through 2029,
as shown in Table 9.8 . With the WRRM the fund balance does not get drawn down. The
LRWWMP CIP shows annual spending from 2021 through 2024 will be higher than the WRRM,
and from 2025 to 2029 the proposed CIP is lower than the WRRM. This results in a net drawdown
of approximately $1.5 M dollars of the 2018 $15.8 M undesignated wastewater funds. This
spending is additional planned to address existing repair and replacement (R&R) and capacity
needs in the system .
This analysis to show the City’s financial capacity in respect to the LRWWMP CIP. The City is not
committed to CIP spending summarized in the LRWWMP. Per the City budgeting policy, the
Utility’s spending is based on a biannual budget approved by the City Cou ncil.

9.4 Available Funding Assistance and Financing
The ten -year planning period shows the City will have adequate funding for the anticipated
short -term projects shown in the CIP, so more bonds and funding isn’t necessary. However,
there are bond assistance and grant options available if needed.
9.4.1 Grants an d Low Cost Loans
The Infrastructure Assistance Coordinating Council (IACC) is a non-profit organization that helps
improve the delivery of infrastructure assistance, both financial and technical, to local
governments and tribes in Washington State. The IAC C has put together a list of funding
opportunities that are currently available for drinking water and wastewater projects.
The Public Works Trust Fund (PWTF) is a potential loan for eligible projects including repair,
replacement, and construction of infrastructure for domestic water projects that improve public
health and safety, respond to environmental issues, promote economic development, or
upgrade system performance.
9.4.2 Bond Financing
Bond financing is obtained by issuing general obligation or revenue bonds. Revenue bonds do
not require voter approval and may be repaid with revenues from rates, miscellaneo us fees or
connection charges.
9.5 Summary
Due to unusual circumstances from COVID-19, short term revenue cannot be predicted, b ut in
the long term, it is not expected to heavily impact the budget and long-term analysis. Over the
next five years, the City is anticipating spending approximately $22,810,000 in capital projects.
CIP spending as proposed for the short term can still be completed although it will draw down
the reserve fund. However, by 2025 it is expected that even with CIP spending, the reserve fund
will begin to build up again. Based on the City’s 2020 rate study, rates are expected to increase
at 2 percent from 2020 till 2024.

Appendix A
SEPA CHECKLIST
SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 Page 1 of 22
SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
Purpose of checklist: Governmental agencies use this checklist to help determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant. This information is also helpful to determine if available avoidance, minimization or compensatory mitigation measures will address the probable significant impacts or if an environmental impact statement will be prepared to further analyze the proposal.
Instructions for applicants: This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Please answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. You may need to consult with an agency specialist or private consultant for some questions. You may use “not applicable” or "does not apply" only when you can explain why it does not apply and not when the answer is unknown. You may also attach or incorporate by reference additional studies reports. Complete and accurate answers to these questions often avoid delays with the SEPA process as well as later in the decision-making process. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact.
Instructions for Lead Agencies: Please adjust the format of this template as needed. Additional information may be necessary to evaluate the existing environment, all interrelated aspects of the proposal and an analysis of adverse impacts. The checklist is considered the first but not necessarily the only source of information needed to make an adequate threshold determination. Once a threshold determination is made, the lead agency is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the checklist and other supporting documents.
Use of checklist for nonproject proposals: For nonproject proposals (such as ordinances, regulations, plans and programs), complete the applicable parts of sections A and B plus the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D). Please completely answer all questions that apply and note that the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proponent," and "affected geographic area," respectively. The lead agency may exclude (for non-projects) questions in Part B - Environmental Elements –that do not contribute meaningfully to the analysis of the proposal.

The City of Renton 2021 Long Range Wastewater Management Plan is scheduled for
adoption in 2021. 7. Do you have any plans for future additions, expansion, or further activity related to or connected with this proposal? If yes, explain.
No. This Plan lists capital improvement projects planned by the City within the next 10
years and long-term projects over the next 20 years. Proposed locations are shown in the
Plan. 8. List any environmental information you know about that has been prepared, or will be prepared, directly related to this proposal.
Depending upon the scope of the projects proposed in the Plan, an individual
environmental checklist and threshold determination would be completed as specified
projects are proposed for construction. 9. Do you know whether applications are pending for governmental approvals of other proposals directly affecting the property covered by your proposal? If yes, explain.
At this time, there are no known pending applications for general applicability related to
the area covered by the sewer system. There may be applications pending related to
improvements to the sewer system such as various on-going plats and developer
extensions occurring within the sewer service area. The City plans to adopt the capital
improvement plan outlined in this document as part of the City’s 10-year capital
improvements plan. 10. List any government approvals or permits that will be needed for your proposal, if known.
The 2021 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan will need to be approved by the
Renton City Council and the Washington State Department of Ecology. The King County
Utilities Technical Review Committee (UTRC) will review the plan and make
recommendations to the Executive and County Council as to the consistency of such
SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 Page 3 of 22
items with adopted county policies and codes. King County will review and approve
franchises to allow the construction of sewer facilities in county rights-of-way. 11. Give brief, complete description of your proposal, including the proposed uses and the size of the project and site. There are several questions later in this checklist that ask you to describe certain aspects of your proposal. You do not need to repeat those answers on this page. (Lead agencies may modify this form to include additional specific information on project description.)
The 2021 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan (LRWWMP) addresses policies,
criteria, assumptions and recommendations for the City's planning area. The major
purpose of the Plan is to provide a long range plan for facility improvements necessary
to serve the estimated population at saturation. The Plan addresses facility reliability,
public health, groundwater and environmental protection, operation and maintenance,
and financing issues. The plan also addresses the need to expand Renton’s sewer
service area into its Urban Growth Area as the appropriate provider of the urban service
per the King County Countywide Planning Policies.
This checklist does not address the specific projects addressed in the five year capital
improvement program. This is a programmatic checklist and does not address any site
specific conditions. These conditions as well as the associated impacts will be
discussed in the SEPA reviews of each project. 12. Location of the proposal. Give sufficient information for a person to understand the precise location of your proposed project, including a street address, if any, and section, township, and range, if known. If a proposal would occur over a range of area, provide the range or boundaries of the site(s). Provide a legal description, site plan, vicinity map, and topographic map, if reasonably available. While you should submit any plans required by the agency, you are not required to duplicate maps or detailed plans submitted with any permit applications related to this checklist.
The area covered by this comprehensive sewer system plan is the sewer service area as
shown in Figure 2.1 of the LRWWMP. Renton has entered into boundary agreements
with most of the sewer service providers adjacent to the City. These service boundaries
are established and are not generally altered by annexations. B. Environmental Elements [HELP]
1. Earth [help] a. General description of the site: (circle one): Flat, rolling, hilly, steep slopes, mountainous, other _____________
The sewer service area includes steep slopes, several hills, a plateau, and river valley
areas.
SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 Page 4 of 22
b. What is the steepest slope on the site (approximate percent slope)?
The slopes vary from flat (zero percent) to very steep (over 40 percent). Steep slopes exist
along the Maple Valley Highway to the north and south of the Cedar River Valley (southern
edge of Renton Highlands; northern edge of Scenic Hill and Rolling Hills), along the eastern
side of I-405 (eastern edge of the Renton Highlands), along the southern (SR 900) and eastern
(Rainier Ave N) edges of Renton West Hill, along the western (SR 167) and northern (I-405)
edges of Talbot Hill and the western edge (I-405) of Scenic Hill. c. What general types of soils are found on the site (for example, clay, sand, gravel, peat, muck)? If you know the classification of agricultural soils, specify them and note any agricultural land of long-term commercial significance and whether the proposal results in removing any of these soils.
According to the USDA’s Web Soil Survey, the main soil types within the water service
area include: Alderwood gravelly sandy loam, Alderwood and Kitsap soils, Arents-
Alderwood material, and Indianola loamy sand. Alderwood gravelly sandy loam
makes up over 30% of the water service area and is considered prime farmland. Using
engineering classifications: there is a wide variety of highly variable glacial deposits in
the water service area that include clay, silt, sand, gravel, cobbles, and boulders. In
the river valley areas, there is a variety of modern alluvium and undifferentiated deltaic
deposits. Adoption of the LRWWMP will not itself result in the removal of agricultural
soil. Specific projects that are subject to environmental review will be evaluated for
their impact to agricultural soils prior to implementation. d. Are there surface indications or history of unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If so, describe.
Within the City, there are areas of unstable soils including steep slopes and historic coal
mines. Some alluvial deposits in the Cedar River Valley and old Black River Valley may be
subject to liquefaction during seismic events. Sensitive areas are mapped by the City and are
subject to regulation under Renton Municipal Code Title IV, Development Regulations. Specific
projects that are subject to environmental review will be evaluated for their soil conditions prior
to implementation. e. Describe the purpose, type, total area, and approximate quantities and total affected area of any filling, excavation, and grading proposed. Indicate source of fill.
N/A, non-project action. However, the sewer system construction projects identified
in the LRWWMP will require excavation and grading of an undetermined quantity of
material. Specific projects will be subject to individual environmental review before
implementation. f. Could erosion occur as a result of clearing, construction, or use? If so, generally describe.
N/A, non-project action. Adoption of the LRWWMP will not itself result in the clearing,
construction, or use of soils, however, the Plan’s programs and projects may result in
erosion from construction. Specific projects that are subject to environmental review
will be evaluated for erosion potential prior to implementation.
SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 Page 5 of 22
g. About what percent of the site will be covered with impervious surfaces after project construction (for example, asphalt or buildings)?
N/A, non-project action. Specific projects will be subject to individual environmental review
before implementation. h. Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth, if any:
N/A, non-project action. Where applicable, best management practices, along with erosion
and sedimentation control measures, will be used in all areas of potential erosion.
Specific projects will be subject to individual environmental review before
implementation.
2. Air [help] a. What types of emissions to the air would result from the proposal during construction, operation, and maintenance when the project is completed? If any, generally describe and give approximate quantities if known.
N/A, non-project action. Adoption of the LRWWMP will not itself result in air
emissions, however, the Plan’s programs and projects may be a source of emissions
from construction activity and increased usage of generators during maintenance,
testing, and power outages events. Specific projects that are subject to
environmental review will be evaluated for air emissions potential prior to
implementation. b. Are there any off-site sources of emissions or odor that may affect your proposal? If so, generally describe.
N/A, non-project action. Specific projects that are subject to environmental review
will be evaluated for off-site sources of emissions prior to implementation. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control emissions or other impacts to air, if any:
N/A, non-project action. However, standard emissions controls for construction
equipment will be utilized during construction of projects recommended by this Plan.
Specific projects that are subject to environmental review will be evaluated for their
potential impact and corresponding mitigation measures prior to implementation.
3. Water [help] a. Surface Water: [help] 1) Is there any surface water body on or in the immediate vicinity of the site (including year-round and seasonal streams, saltwater, lakes, ponds, wetlands)? If yes, describe type and provide names. If appropriate, state what stream or river it flows into.
There are multiple surface water bodies within the sewer system area. The
northwest boundary of the sewer service area is the shoreline of Lake
Washington. The rivers and streams that run through the sewer service area
SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 Page 6 of 22
include the Cedar River, Green River, May Creek, and Springbrook Creek. The
Cedar River is tributary to Lake Washington and the Green River is a tributary to
Puget Sound. May Creek flows into Lake Washington and Springbrook Creek
flows into the Green River. All water bodies and wetland boundaries are cataloged
in the City’s GIS (COR Maps). 2) Will the project require any work over, in, or adjacent to (within 200 feet) the described waters? If yes, please describe and attach available plans.
N/A, non-project action. However, the Plan’s programs and projects may require
work within 200 feet of surface water bodies. These projects will be subject to
individual review and compliance with the City’s Shoreline Master Program. 3) Estimate the amount of fill and dredge material that would be placed in or removed from surface water or wetlands and indicate the area of the site that would be affected. Indicate the source of fill material.
N/A, non-project action. Adoption of the LRWWMP will not itself result in the
direct alteration of the environment, however, the Plan’s programs and projects
may result in the addition or removal of fill and dredge material. The potential
impacts of these actions are currently unknown. Projects that are subject to
environmental review will be evaluated for potential impacts and corresponding
mitigation measures prior to implementation. 4) Will the proposal require surface water withdrawals or diversions? Give general description, purpose, and approximate quantities if known.
N/A, non-project action. Adoption of the LRWWMP will not itself result in the
withdrawal or diversion of surface water. Projects that are subject to environmental
review will be evaluated for potential impacts and corresponding mitigation
measures prior to implementation.
5) Does the proposal lie within a 100-year floodplain? If so, note location on the site plan.

D. Supplemental sheet for nonproject actions [HELP] (IT IS NOT NECESSARY to use this sheet for project actions) Because these questions are very general, it may be helpful to read them in conjunction with the list of the elements of the environment. When answering these questions, be aware of the extent the proposal, or the types of activities likely to result from the proposal, would affect the item at a greater intensity or at a faster rate than if the proposal were not implemented. Respond briefly and in general terms. 1. How would the proposal be likely to increase discharge to water; emissions to air; pro- duction, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise?
The Long Range Wastewater Management Plan will not itself increase discharge to water,
emissions to air, hazardous substances, or production of noise, however, the Plan’s
programs and projects have the potential for these effects. For example, projects
recommended by the Plan that require construction may result in exhaust emissions, dust,
and noise from construction equipment as well as temporary storage of hazardous
materials. All hazardous materials storage within the Aquifer Protection Area will be
required to comply with the Aquifer Protection Code in order to prevent contamination of
the City’s main drinking water source. Specific projects that are subject to environmental
review will be evaluated for potential impacts and corresponding mitigation measures prior
to implementation.
SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 Page 20 of 22
Proposed measures to avoid or reduce such increases are:
For the LRWWMP adoption, there are no specific measures planned to reduce these
impacts. Best management practices will be used to minimize impacts, in accordance with
local, state, and federal laws, during the planning and construction of any applicable
projects. Proposed projects will be reviewed and addressed on an individual basis by
appropriate agencies prior to implementation. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life?
Adoption of the LRWWMP will not itself result in direct effects to plants, animals, fish, or
marine life. It is not anticipated that any of the proposed projects within the Plan will have
an impact upon vegetation or wildlife, however, there is potential for impacts to occur
during construction efforts. Specific projects that are subject to environmental review will
be evaluated for potential impacts to vegetation and wildlife and corresponding mitigation
measures prior to implementation.
Proposed measures to protect or conserve plants, animals, fish, or marine life are:
Specific projects that are subject to environmental review will be evaluated for their
potential impact to plants, animals, fish, and marine life. Potential impacts will be reported
with corresponding mitigation measures to protect or conserve vegetation and wildlife.
Proposed projects and mitigation measures will be reviewed and addressed on an
individual basis by appropriate agencies prior to implementation. 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources?
Adoption of the LRWWMP will not itself result in the direct depletion of energy or natural
resources. It is not anticipated that any of the proposed projects within the Plan will have a
strong impact on energy or natural resources, however, some projects may require the use
of energy resources. For example, the running or testing of water system facilities uses
electricity and construction projects require fuel for equipment operation and delivery of
materials. Specific projects that are subject to environmental review will be evaluated for
potential impacts to energy resources and corresponding mitigation measures prior to
implementation.
Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are:
For the LRWWMP adoption, best management practices will be used to minimize energy
usage. For example, the sewer utility maximizes the potential for gravity flow in the sewer
system whenever possible. Programs and projects proposed in the LRWWMP may also
result in energy conservation features such as improvements to lift stations and strategies
to increase system efficiency. Best management practices will be used in the design,
construction and operations of the infrastructure proposed by the Plan, in accordance with
local, state, and federal laws, during the planning and construction of any applicable
projects. Proposed projects will be reviewed and addressed on an individual basis for
energy and natural resources impacts by appropriate agencies prior to implementation.

4. How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study) for governmental protection; such as parks, wilderness, wild and scenic rivers, threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites, wetlands, floodplains, or prime farmlands?
Adoption of the LRWWMP will not itself result in direct effects to environmentally sensitive
areas or areas designated for governmental protection, however, there is potential for the
Plan’s programs and projects to occur in the immediate vicinity of sensitive areas. The
potential impacts from these actions are currently unknown. Specific projects that are
subject to environmental review will be evaluated for potential impacts and corresponding
mitigation measures prior to implementation. Proposed measures to protect such resources or to avoid or reduce impacts are:
Specific projects that are subject to environmental review will be evaluated by the
appropriate agencies for their potential impact and corresponding mitigation measures
prior to implementation. All such projects will be required to comply with applicable local,
state, and federal guidelines and regulations regarding environmental protection.
5. How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans?
Adoption of the LRWWMP will not itself result in direct effects to land and shoreline use
and will not allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans.
Specific projects that are subject to environmental review will be evaluated for land and
shoreline use prior to implementation.
Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are:
The LRWWMP is designed to support City land use plans, including adhering to the
guidelines set by the state Growth Management Act. All such projects will be required to
comply with applicable local, state, and federal guidelines and regulations regarding
shoreline and land use. Proposed projects will be reviewed and addressed on an individual
basis by appropriate agencies prior to implementation. 6. How would the proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities?
Adoption of the LRWWMP will not increase the demand for transportation, public
services, or utilities. The Plan itself is partly in response to population growth and
increased demands on the sewer utility. Sewer demand projections are included

BE REVIEWED:
Applicant documents are available online through the City of Renton
Document Center website. See also https://cutt.ly/knhndiq
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicant, the City of Renton Public Works Department, is requesting
SEPA Environmental Review for the City of Renton 2021 Long Range Wastewater Management Plan. The subject plan
will reviewed as a non-project action, as defined by Section 197-11-774 in the Washington Administrative Code. The
plan primarily serves as an update to the City of Renton’s 2010 Long Range Wastewater Management Plan and was
developed collaboratively by City staff and Carollo Engineers, Inc. (Carollo), including ADS Environmental Services LLC
as part of the Carollo team. The plan addresses policies, criteria, assumptions, and recommendations regarding the
Wastewater Management of the City’s planning area with consideration to population growth and increased demands
on the sewer utility. The plan will be used as a guide in maintaining and improving the water system in the short-term
over the next 10 years. It also provides a planning framework for the 20-year, long-term planning horizon.
The primary purpose of this plan is to identify capacity deficiencies in the wastewater collection system, develop feasible
alternatives to correct these deficiencies, and plan the infrastructure that will serve future development by addressing
facility reliability, public health, groundwater and environmental protection, operation and maintenance, and financing
issues. Maintaining a current Plan is required to meet the regulations of the Washington State Department of Health
(DOH) and the requirements of the Washington State Growth Management A ct. The plan also contains estimated
timeframes, which are the intended framework for future funding decisions. The applicant submitted an Environmental
(SEPA) Checklist with the application.
Per WAC197-11-340(2)(c) any person, affected tribe, or agency may submit comments to the City within fourteen
days of the date of issuance of the DNS.
Appeals of the environmental determination must be filed in writing on or before 5:00 p.m. on July 1, 2021. Appeals
to the Examiner are governed by RMC 4-8-110 and more information regarding the appeal process may be obtained
from the Renton City Clerk’s Office, (425) 430-6510. Due to Governor Jay Inslee’s Proclamation 20-25 (“Stay Home, Stay
Healthy”), the City Clerk’s Office is working remotely. For that reason, appeals must be submitted electronically to the
City Clerk at cityclerk@rentonwa.gov. The appeal fee, normally due at the time an appeal is submitted, will be collected
at a future date. Appeals to the Hearing Examiner are governed by RMC 4-8-110 and additional information regarding
the appeal process may be obtained from the City Clerk’s Office, cityclerk@rentonwa.gov. If the situation changes such
that the City Clerk’s Office is open when you file your appeal, you have the option of filing the appeal in person.

The regulatory requirements listed under Ecology's authority in
this section are incomplete. The following are missing:
Consideration of Reclaimed Water (RCW 90.48.112) and
consideration of water conservation measures (RCW 90.48.495).
Both requirements generally relate to necessary coordination
between the general sewer plan and the city's water system
plan. In addition, RCW 90.46.120 requires Water System
Planning under DOH's authority to evaluate opportunities for
using reclaimed water in coordination with evaluations done in a
general sewer plan submitted under RCW 90.48.110.

2 Table 1.1/Page 1-5 Ecology
The table indicated that "discussion of the provision for
treatment, discharge, and reuse" was "not included" because the
service is performed by King County. This is not an appropriate
claim. The general sewer plan must address the requirement of
WAC 173-240-050(3)(h), which requires "A statement regarding
provisions for treatment and discussion of the adequacy of the
treatment." Although Ecology recognizes that the City does not
own and operate a sewage treatment facility, it must still
demonstrate in the general sewer plan the adequacy of
treatment for all wastewater generated during the planning
period. The plan must include sufficient discussion necessary to
demonstrate that the city's agreements with King County will
provide adequate treatment throughout the planning period.
Please identify the capacity available to the city at the King
County facilities for treatment and identify whether any
agreements contain capacity constraints that may limit or
otherwise constrain the city's ability to provide sewer service.
Agreement with King County will be
added to the Appendicies. Text will be

(Same comment as ES 1) The map of the existing system shows

about King County's wastewater infrastructure in the area,
which identifies no wastewater pump stations owned or

The text on these pages identify lift stations that appear to be
equipped with overflows, but does not provide much detail
about the overflows. Section 2.5.17 states that the Shy Creek
lift station overflows to secondary wet well with third pump. In
addition, sections on the Stonegate lift station (2.5.17) and
Wedgewood lift station (2.5.19) also discuss overflow vaults.
Finally, Table 2.2 shows a third "flow transfer" pump at the
following pump stations, but there is no discussion in 2.5 about
possible overflow vaults: Baxter, Cottonwood, East Valley.
Please expand discussions in these sections to better describe
the use of these "overflows", including the frequency of use
and routing of flow to and from any storage related to these
overflows. The text seems to suggest that these systems are
designed to contain flow and not allow for overflows to the
environment. However, further details are necessary to verify
this assumption and to better understand how the city uses this
strategy.

The third bullet in this section references "private
sewerage disposal systems". Please add clarity
about the types of facilities the city considers
"private sewerage disposal systems". How does
the city's definition and allowance for private
sewers align with the requirement of public
ownership of domestic sewage facilities in WAC
173-240-104?
The definition of a private sewerage disposal system
is the side sewer from building to main.No change to Plan.Complete
2 3.7.2 / Page 3-9 Ecology
Related to comment above, the third to last bullet
on page 3-9 talks about "private multi family and
single family pump stations" and references city
standards/code. While the city code (RMC 4-6-
040.F.6) talks about private lift stations for
commercial and multi-family buildings, it does not
provide much clarity beyond requiring " alarm and
standby emergency operation systems, and meet
or exceed Department of Ecology specifications as
detailed in “Criteria for Sewage Works Design”".
In addition, although the code (RMC 4-6-040.G.5)
states that sewage from building drains "shall be
lifted by approved artificial means and discharged
to the building sewer" when gravity discharge is
not possible, the code contains no standards for
this type of connection. Please verify whether the
city has specific design standard for these lift
stations. Also, as discussed above, clarify how the
city's code ensures compliance with the public
ownership requirement in WAC 173-240-104.
The City provides development guidelines for the
pump stations and review during buidling permit
approval. The City is working to develop design
standards.

Section 3.5 (Service Area and Extension
Objectives) states:
Ensure the availability of an adequate level of
sanitary sewer service to areas annexing to the
City or areas within the City’s Potential Annexation
Area (PAA).
But then immediately thereafter in 3.5.2
(Implementation) states:
Sanitary sewer service to properties outside the
City’s corporate limits will not be permitted except
under the following conditions:
One of the conditions of 3.5.2 should be that the
subject area is a PAA within the UGA.
To add confusion, UTRC staff recently received a
Certificate of Sewer Availability for a proposed
subdivision at 14310 SE 140th St, in the PAA. The
certificate states that “The City has no plans to
extend sanitary sewer within this portion of our
sewer service are[a] within the next 20 years.”
In fact, the plan doesn’t show appear to show any
extension of service into the PAAs, despite Policy
3.5 above. Please clarify.
The City intends to serve all areas in the City Limits
and Potential Annexation Areas. The extension of
the City's system may be required by the developer.
The City Code is being reviewed to align with this
intention.

The final sentence in this section states that the
city has seven adjoining sewer utilities, but the
subsections that follow (as well as Figure 4.2) list
only six. While the section discusses KC regional
wastewater, Ecology does not view the county as
an "adjoining sewer utility" since it is a wholesale

RCW 90.48.112 requires general sewer plans to
"include consideration of opportunities for the

Use Law (RCW 90.46) also requires coordination
between wastewater system and water system
plans in the evaluation of opportunities to use
reclaimed water. While this general sewer plan
discusses the city's work with King County and
other stakeholders in reclaimed water
comprehensive planning, it does not provide
much detail on the status of these efforts. It also

The second paragraph of this section states that
"several industries within the city have obtained
[NPDES] permits". This statement is not accurate for
the context of this section of the general sewer plan.
The section appears to address the requirement of
WAC 173-240-050(3)(i), which requires a "List of all
establishments producing industrial wastewater, the
quantity of wastewater and periods of production, and
the character of the industrial wastewater insofar as it
may affect the sewer system or treatment plant."
While the facilities shown in Table 5.1 may have
received coverage under a general NPDES permit for
industrial stormwater, this permit is not administered
by King County's Industrial Waste Program.
Pretreatment permits issued by King County are State
Waste Discharge permits issued under state authority
(WAC 173-216). Although the permits are related to
federal pretreatment standards, they are not NPDES
permits. In addition, King County may issue "discharge
authorizations" to industrial facilities that do not
require a permit under the federal pretreatment
program. These authorizations are generally based on
county codes.

Please verify accuracy of the table. It is titled as
"water utility monthly rates" rather than
wastewater. In addition, the rates are not
consistent with the city or county's published
rates - both appear to be half of what they should
be. Does the accuracy of this table impact any
planning calculations presented in this chapter?

In Table 9.8 and the preceding text, it sounds as if
this LRWWMP CIP would be underfunded by
nearly $1.76 million over the next six years
compared to the WRRM revenue-based model.
We’re interested in knowing more about the
relationship of these two documents and the
likelihood of the City being able to financially
complete the CIP.
The City has fund balance available for
next six years of improvements. Per the
City budgeting policy, the
Utility’s spending is based on a biannual
budget approved by the City Council and
projects will be adjusted accordingly.

Ecology
Although this appendix includes adequate detail for
most collection system projects, it does not include
specific details of standards for lift stations,
including individual grinder pump facilities.
According to WAC 173-240-030, Ecology may waive
submission of engineering reports and design
documents for sewer system projects when the
general sewer plan includes standard design
criteria. Based on the material presented in this
appendix and throughout the general sewer plan,
Ecology cannot provide this waiver for lift station
projects.
City is evaluating standards for lift
stations and future individual grinder
pumps. This will be incorporated into
future Standard Plans and Specifications
and sent to Ecology at that time.

City of Renton Draft Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan – Initial Review
The City of Renton submitted their draft Long Range Wastewater Management Plan for review by the King
County Utilities Technical Review Committee (UTRC). On August 25, 2021, the UTRC held an open public
meeting and deliberated the plan content, then directed Staff to issue this comment letter. The UTRC
would like to see the following clar ifications and revisions as detailed below.
General Notes:
With such a large document, it would be helpful to have the table of contents be live linked, or for there
to be navigation options in the PDF.
Many of the boundaries are identified using dashed lines with large gaps, making it very hard to see
outlines in areas of complex topology. Recommend using solid lines or smaller dashes to demarcate
boundaries.
Breakout maps or inset maps may be helpful in areas of dense feature/data concentration.
Section 3.5 (Service Area and Extension Objectives ) states:
Ensure the availability of an adequate level of sanitary sewer service to areas annexing to the
City or areas within the City’s Potential Annexation Area (PAA).
But then immediately thereafter in 3.5.2 (Implementation) states:
Sanitary sewer service to properties outside the City’s corporate limits will not be permitted
except under the following conditions:
One of the conditions of 3.5.2 should be that the subject area is a PAA within the UGA.
To add confusion, UTRC staff recently received a Certificate of Sewer Availability for a proposed
subdivision at 14310 SE 140th St , in the PAA. The certificate states that “The City has no plans to extend
sanitary sewer within this portion of our sewer service are[a] within the next 20 years.”
In fact, the plan doesn’t show appear to show any extension of service into the PAAs , despite Policy 3.5
above. Please clarify.
Figure 4-1. That which is called the urban growth boundary is incorrect. The growth boundary is a much
larger area surrounding the developed areas of King County. You’re showing Renton Corporate Limits
Page 2 of 4
plus the Potential Annexation Areas, which is not the same this as the King County designated UGA. In
the figure below, the red line represents the extent of the Urban Growth Area, and the shaded green
areas are Potential Annexation Areas in unincorporated King County adjacent to Renton. Section 4.3.2
explains this correctly.
Figure 4-3 Wastewater Service Boundary line typology is very hard to see in certain areas. Recommend
smaller dash size and different color.
I n Section 4.4.4.1 King County Land Use:
All of the service area in unincorporated KC is designated “urban”, with the exception of the
service to Apollo Elementary School just east of the urban growth areas (UGAs). UGAs are
intended to develop at urban densities and with urban service levels.
This should read:
….just east of the Urban Growth Area (UGA). Land within the UGA is intended to develop at
urban densities and with urban service levels.
Immediately below, this plan makes reference to community plans which are out of date and no longer
active:
Unincorporated areas of KC are divided into community planning areas, each with a community
plan. For the purposes of the LRWWMP, community plans were based on those adopted as part
of the 2012 King County Comprehensive Plan. Where conflicts or inconsistencies between the
Page 3 of 4
policies of the community plans and KC’s Comprehensive Plan occur, the Comprehensive Plan
takes precedence. Three community plans, Soos Creek, West Hill, and Newcastle, cover most of
the unincorporated areas within the study area of this LRWWMP.
King County Comprehensive Plan: Subarea plans - King County
Current Community Service Area Former Community Planning Areas
Bear Creek / Sammamish Bear Creek, Northshore, East Sammamish

West King County (unincorporated) Portions of 10 different Community Planning Areas
King County Franchise No. 14056, 2001 - Grants the City the right to construct sewer lines along KC
roads . Just as a reminder, expires in 4.5 years.
Page 3-6
In the UGA all new development shall be served by public sewers, unless application of this policy to a
proposal for a single -family residence on an individual lot would deny all reasonable use of the property;
or sewer service is not available for a proposed short subdivision of urban property in a timely or
reasonable manner as determined by the Utility Technical Review Committee. These onsite system shall
be managed by one of the following entities, in order or preference, the sewer utility whose service area
encompasses the proposed short subdivision, the provider most likely to serve the area, or an Onsite
Sewage System Maintainer certified by the Public Health – Seattle & KC (2018 King County
Comprehe nsive Plan, Policy F-255)
“These onsite system…” should read “These onsite systems…”
“Utility Technical Review Committee” should read “King County Utility Technical Review Committee”
Does the City manage on-site systems? KC Permitting has an application in for a short plat right now that
may need on-site instead of sewer.
On Page 9-1, the text states that “The SDC allocation based on meter size is shown in Table 9.3.” We
assume that you’re basing charges on the property’s associated water meter size, and not installing
sewer meters, but please clarify.

DraftReviewed By:Shawn McKone, PEComment Date: 9/1/2021Dwg. Sheet No.SectorSpec. & Page No.Paragraph No.Date Initials1Pages 1-2 and 1-5Sec. 1.4The regulatory requirements listed under Ecology's authority in this section are incomplete. The following are missing: Consideration of Reclaimed Water (RCW 90.48.112) and consideration of water conservation measures (RCW 90.48.495). Both requirements generally relate to necessary coordination between the general sewer plan and the City's water system plan. In addition, RCW 90.46.120 requires Water System Planning under DOH's authority to evaluate opportunities for using reclaimed water in coordination with evaluations done in a general sewer plan submitted under RCW 90.48.110.McKone2Page 1-5Table 1.1 (WAC Plan Requirements)The table indicated that "discussion of the provision for treatment, discharge, and reuse" was "not included" because the service is performed by King County. This is not an appropriate claim. The general sewer plan must address the requirement of WAC 173-240-050(3)(h), which requires "A statement regarding provisions for treatment and discussion of the adequacy of the treatment." Although Ecology recognizes that the City does not own and operate a sewage treatment facility, it must still demonstrate in the general sewer plan the adequacy of treatment for all wastewater generated during the planning period. The plan must include sufficient discussion necessary to demonstrate that the City's agreements with King County will provide adequate treatment throughout the planning period. Please identify the capacity available to the city at the King County facilities for treatment and identify whether any agreements contain capacity constraints that may limit or otherwise constrain the City's ability to provide sewer service.McKone3Page 2-2 Figure 2.1/ES.1The map of the existing system shows several (about 2 dozen) pump stations labeled as "King County." This is not consistent with information Ecology has about King County's wastewater infrastructure in the area, which identifies no wastewater pump stations owned or operated by King County Wastewater Treatment Division. Please clarify the ownership of these pump stations.McKone4Pages 2-13 through 2-17Sec. 2.5 and Table 2.2The text on these pages identify lift stations that appear to be equipped with overflows, but does not provide much detail about the overflows. Section 2.5.17 states that the Shy Creek lift station overflows to secondary wet well with third pump. In addition, sections on the Stonegate lift station (2.5.17) and Wedgewood lift station (2.5.19) also discuss overflow vaults. Finally, Table 2.2 shows a third "flow transfer" pump at the following pump stations, but there is no discussion in 2.5 about possible overflow vaults: Baxter, Cottonwood, East Valley. Please expand discussions in these sections to better describe the use of these "overflows", including the frequency of use and routing of flow to and from any storage related to these overflows. The text seems to suggest that these systems are designed to contain flow and not allow for overflows to the environment. However, further details are necessary to verify this assumption and to better understand how the city uses this strategy.McKoneReviewer last nameCity of Renton General Sewer Plan - Review Comment/Response FormReview Phase:Contact:Ann Fowler, City of RentonResponseImplementationNo.CommentResponderReviewer Check OffPage 1 of 37/9/2022

Ecology also recommends including a map that shows the relationship between existing unsewerd areas and wellhead protection areas.McKone6Page 3-2 Section 3.3.2The third bullet in this section references "private sewerage disposal systems". Please add clarity about the types of facilities the city considers "private sewerage disposal systems". How does the city's definition and allowance for private sewers align with the requirement of public ownership of domestic sewage facilities in WAC 173-240-104?McKone7Page 3-9 Section 3.7.2Related to comment 6 above, the third to last bullet on page 3-9 talks about "private multi family and single family pump stations" and references city standards/code. While the city code (RMC 4-6-040.F.6) talks about private lift stations for commercial and multi-family buildings, it does not provide much clarity beyond requiring " alarm and standby emergency operation systems, and meet or exceed Department of Ecology specifications as detailed in “Criteria for Sewage Works Design”". In addition, although the code (RMC 4-6-040.G.5) states that sewage from building drains "shall be lifted by approved artificial means and discharged to the building sewer" when gravity discharge is not possible, the code contains no standards for this type of connection. Please verify whether the city has specific design standard for these lift stations. Also, as discussed above, clarify how the city's code ensures compliance with the public ownership requirement in WAC 173-240-104.McKone8Page 4-16 Sec. 4.4.5The final sentence in this section states that the city has seven adjoining sewer utilities, but the subsections that follow (as well as Figure 4.2) list only six. While the section discusses KC regional wastewater, Ecology does not view the county as an "adjoining sewer utility" since it is a wholesale sewer service provider that receives wastewater from the City's planning area.McKone9Page 4-18 Sec. 4.4.5.9RCW 90.48.112 requires general sewer plans to "include consideration of opportunities for the use of reclaimed water." The Reclaimed Water Use Law (RCW 90.46) also requires coordination between wastewater system and water system plans in the evaluation of opportunities to use reclaimed water. While this general sewer plan discusses the City's work with King County and other stakeholders in reclaimed water comprehensive planning, it does not provide much detail on the status of these efforts. It also does not discuss steps the City has taken to ensure coordination between this general sewer plan and its water system plan on the topic of reclaimed water use. Please expand the discussion to address these topics.McKone10Page 5-3 Sec. 5.2.5The second paragraph of this section states that "several industries within the City have obtained [NPDES] permits." This statement is not accurate for the context of this section of the general sewer plan. The section appears to address the requirement of WAC 173-240-050(3)(i), which requires a "List of all establishments producing industrial wastewater, the quantity of wastewater and periods of production, and the character of the industrial wastewater insofar as it may affect the sewer system or treatment plant." While the facilities shown in Table 5.1 may have received coverage under a general NPDES permit for industrial stormwater, this permit is not administered by King County's Industrial Waste Program. Pretreatment permits issued by King County are State Waste Discharge permits issued under state authority (WAC 173-216). Although the permits are related to federal pretreatment standards, they are not NPDES permits. In addition, King County may issue "discharge authorizations" to industrial facilities that do not require a permit under the federal pretreatment program. These authorizations are generally based on county codes. McKonePage 2 of 37/9/2022

This discussion should include information on how the city responds to overflows that may impact any of the following: surface waters of the state, groundwater in wellhead protection areas, stormwater systems (either under the city's jurisdiction or another local jurisdiction), and areas accessible to the general public. McKone14Page 7-11 Sec. 7.10Please expand the FOG Source Control section to add in a discussion of the city's policies related to enforcement of it's FOG ordinance. In particular, clarify if there are any requirements for property owners to periodically inspect grease traps or other control devises and whether the city requires submission of these inspection reports.McKone15Page 7-15 Sec. 7.18.2The final sentence of paragraph 2 under "Emergency operations" states that "The City follows all Ecology guidelines for emergency notification procedures". Please add details about how the city uses these guidelines, especially with respect to SSO notifications discussed in comment 13.McKone16Page 8-8 Sec. 8.4.6The description of the Kennydale Lake Line Renewal project talks about the potential use of individual lift stations.

City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Renton retained the services of Stantec to update the existing hydraulic
model to evaluate the capacity of the existing sewer system and to analyze the
system for future development scenarios. Steps in the development of the sewer
model included:
1.Updates of the physical model that involved obtaining, formatting, and
inputting into the physical system data such as manholes, pipes and lift
stations.
2.O btaining and analyzing the population and employment data to input as
flow assignments to each sewer basin with the precipitation and evaporation
data.
3.Calibration of the model to 2012 conditions.
4.Analyzing the 2012 and Ultimate Model Peak Flow Scenarios.
The methodology and numerous assumptions associated with developing the
model are detailed herein, with supporting documents associated with the project.
The r eport includes the following sections:
•Chapter 1 – Introduction
•Chapter 2 – Physical Model Updates
•Chapter 3 – Planning Data
•Chapter 4 – Model Calibration
•Chapter 5 – Analysis and Results
•Chapter 6 – Recommendations and Summary
Two primary models were used during this project. T he 2012 Model was updated
from previous versions of the model, and was calibrated to King County’s 2008-2011
flow-monitoring data. Discussion of the original model development can be found
in the City of Renton Sanitary Sewer Model Development and Analysis Summary
Report, September 2006. T he Ultimate Model was then developed, which
incorporates all of the projected flow assignments for the analysis.

INTRODUCTION CHAPTER 1
MODELING SOFTWARE
The model was analyzed using the MIKE URBAN software program by the Danish
Hydraulic Institute (DHI), and was originally developed using MOUSE, also by DHI.
DHI assisted King County with the 2001 regional Infiltration and Inflow (I&I) study,
and King County also used MOUSE for the 2012 I/I study, and has assisted the City
and Stantec with the development of the original MOUSE model, conversion of the

CHAPTER 2 PHYSICAL MODEL UPDATE
The development of the two primary models (2012 and Ultimate) is summarized
below.
2012 PHYSICAL MODEL DEVELOPMENT
Data Source
The basis for the M IKE U RBAN model update was primarily the City’s GIS database,
and includes system data from 2008 through March 2012 . Additional data was
provided from topographic survey data and sewer record drawings. To be
consistent with the previous model development and updates, the following rules
were applied when adding new facilities to the model:
Manholes and Nodes
• Cleanouts and connected piping were generally excluded from the model.
• The correct manhole diameters were assigned to the model where available.
Manholes were generally assumed to be 4-foot diameter if no other
information was available.
• Outlet loss for manholes in the model was assumed to be “round-edged.” To
remain conservative yet more realistic, the outlet loss was assigned as
“round-edged” to the manholes, and the default loss value “Km” was
reduced from 0.25 to 0.1.
• At a few locations, the new sewer information was joined the older portions
of the model. I nterpolations and/or datum shifts of elevations were
necessary during the original model development. In many of these cases, it
was necessary to re-interpolate or re-work the existing manhole elevations to
match the new data.
Pipes
• Specific pipe lengths were generally not input into the model; instead the
pipe lengths were scaled based on the coordinates from the City’s GIS.
Lift Stations and Force Mains
• Best available pumping rate data was used to input flow rates for single
pumps in duplex stations. Pumps were assumed to operate at a constant
rate (the design flow rate) throughout the ranges of operation. The pump

PHYSICAL MODEL DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER 2
data originated from pumping tests and flow monitoring data supplied by
the City. Pump curves were not used for the lift stations in the model.
Generally, the magnitude of flow rates from the lift stations relative to the
larger system flows were considered to be small enough to neglect the
effects of wet well fluctuations for modeling purposes.
• The pump controls (on/off) are based on actual level settings obtained from
the City. The second pump in each station is activated based on the wet
well level, and a very rough estimate was made for the flow rates with both
pumps running. For the backup pumps within lift stations, where no other
information was available, the second pump was assumed to produce
approximately 1/4 to 1/3 of the flow rate of the first pump when the pumps
operate simultaneously. It is recognized that per DOH requirements for
duplex stations, a single pump must be sized to handle the entire peak flow
of the design storm event. The flow rate from the second pump is defined as
the difference between the first pump operating alone, and the combined
pumping rate (e.g., Pump 1 pumps 1.0 cfs throughout operation range, Pump
2 pumps 0.25 cfs throughout its operating range).
• The alignment, size, and material of f orce mains is physically defined in the
model. However, intermittent grade changes along the alignment are not
represented.
• Appropriate lift stations were added and abandoned in the model for the
different scenarios and timeframes analyzed, as described below, and in the
sections discussing the Ultimate Models.
The following lift stations were added or modified in the 2012 Model:
• Denny’s Lift Station (L07) Improvements
• Airport Lift Station (L25) Replacement
• Stoneg ate Lift Station (L27) Replacement
• Shy Creek Lift St ation (L01)
• Liberty Lift Station (L3 4)
The following lift stations, which have been removed from service, were removed in
the 2012 Model:
• Summer Wind Lift Station
• Earlington Lift Station
• East Renton Lift Station
• High Gate Lift Station
City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report Page 2.2
PHYSICAL MODEL DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER 2
• Highland Estates Lift Station
• Evendell Lift Station
A few of the improvements described above, including the Liberty Lift Station and
Airport Lift Station Improvements, were not active until after 2012. These
improvements were added after the calibration was complete.
Extent of 2012 Hydraulic Model
The majority of the City’s sewer system as it existed in 2012 was incorporated into
the hydraulic model. Clean-outs, dead-end portions of the system with
missing/errant information, and some portions of private system were not included.
Although present in the physical model, a portion of the City’s system south of Mini-
Basin 5 did not include flow assignments, per direction from City staff (this portion of
the system is “dry” piping in the model), since it is tributary to another purveyor’s
Mini-Basin (SOO039). This area is located in the South portion of the City, primarily
serving customers on South 55th Street (between 99th Place South and SR-167) and
on Talbot Road South (between South 50th Street and South 194th Street).
Isolated areas where small portions of the City’s piping are tributary to sewer
purveyors other than King County were generally not modeled.
Model Pipe and Manhole ID Updates
The City updated its geodatabase in 2014. Included in this update was a revision
to the naming conventions for the sewer infrastructure, including manholes,
cleanouts, gravity pipes, force mains, and lift stations. In order to more easily
identify and discuss the analysis of the sewer system, the City requested that we
update the City sewer identifiers (MUIDs) within the model to be consistent with the
geodatabase. This included updates to the pipe material identifications , which
were adjusted to conform to NASSCO standards for pipe inspection.
With the assistance of DHI, Stantec imported and updated the MUIDs and pipe
materials . Small isolated areas of the City sewer system were not updated. These
locations were typically updates to the geodatabase that occurred after 2012, or
were locations where the model included horizontal and vertical bends in the pipe
not adequately represented in the GIS. The King County interceptor sewer pipes
were not updated during this procedure. Table 2-1 lists the pipe materials and
associated Manning’s roughness values.

A small number of pipes and manholes from sewer improvements after 2012 were
added to the model in order successfully complete the ID updates.
ULTIMATE PHYSICAL MODEL DEVELOPMENT
Pipe, Manhole and Node Additions
The 2012 Model was used as the base to create the Ultimate physical model.
Development of the Ultimate Model included working with City Staff to determine
and include future system improvements, such as:
• T he proposed diversion sewer for Heather Downs/Maplewood Heights was
added. The proposed sewer will begin south of the Union Avenue SE/SE 4th
Street Intersection and will drain sewage flows down a steep slope, and
connect to the existing sewer located in the Maplewood Golf Course.
• The proposed Talbot Hills Sewer relocation was added. This involves
r elocation of the sewer from South 14th Street and redirection of the sewer to
flow by gravity to Smithers Avenue S. This also includes installation of a new
sewer crossing under I-405 at the extension of Smithers Avenue S to S Renton
Village Place.

Summary Report Page 2.4
PHYSICAL MODEL DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER 2
• The proposed Thunder Hills diversion sewer, located on S 18th Street between
Grant Avenue S and Eagle Ridge Drive S, was added. The downstream
sewers between Eagle Ridge Drive and Smithers Avenue S were upsized to
accommodate increased flow rates.
In addition to the improvements listed above, “dummy” nodes were added to
represent portions of the “U” Basins or other existing sub-basins not currently served
by sewer. To represent future service, nodes were added for each mini-basin or
sub-b asin, generally a single node each for residential, employment, and any
school populations.

Summary Report Page 2.5
CHAPTER 3 PLANNING DATA
The planning data section includes the populations and areas assigned to each
mini-basin, the assumptions used to model sanitary sewer flow, peak flow
generating storm events assigned to each model basin, and I&I assignments.
MODEL SANITARY FLOW DETERMINATION
Unlike the flow monitoring performed for the original 2001 Infiltration and Inflow
study performed by King County, the decennial flow monitoring used for the 2012
study did not include each of the City’s mini-basins. Instead, flow monitors were
placed at fewer locations. T ypically, the locations were at the outlet of each
Model Basin, although a small number of mini-basins were also assigned a flow
monitor. There were 25 flow monitors placed which recorded flows generated
within the City’s sewer service area.
Dry Weather Flow Determination by Mini-Basin
Dry weather flow data from the 2009-2010 flow monitoring season was generally
used to determine total average sanitary sewage flows for each mini-basin. King
County staff identified the periods meeting their criteria for dry weather flow. For
model basins receiving flow from upstream tributary basins , time series using the
flow monitoring data were developed and added to the model as boundary
conditions to examine the total flow through the basin.
Diurnal Curve Development
The diurnal curves developed during the creation of the 2001 Mouse m odel were
not modified for the 2012 or Ult imate models.
MODEL PLANNING DATA
Population projections were compiled for the City of Renton Sewer Service Area for
current and future conditions. The populations are divided into four categories;
single-family residential, multi-family residential, employment, and schools.
Most of the projections for the three categories (not including schools) were taken
from the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) Land Use Baseline projections,
which were developed using the UrbanSims model, and cut to the City of Renton
sewer mini-basin boundaries by PSRC staff. Due to confidentially requirements
established by the Employment Securities Department, employment populations
could not be provided for six sewer mini-basin boundaries. Because of this, two
different methods, which are described later in the chapter, were used to estimate
City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report Page 3.1
PLANNING DATA CHAPTER 3
the employment populations for current and future conditions. A small number of
residential populations were also modified after our review of the PSRC data.
School populations were derived from enrollment data published by the school
districts located within the City sewer service area.
Planning Area/Basin Boundaries
2012 Model
Population and employment data was assigned to the hydraulic model based on
City of Renton mini-basins. There are 6 7 sewer drainage mini-basins. The mini-
basins vary in size and span the entire City. These include the 57 King County Mini-
Basins delineated for the year 2001-2002 flow monitoring, which were modified to
more accurately represent the City’s service area and to exclude non-developable
areas, and to also add Mini-Basins A and B. Mini-Basin 38 was split into two sub-
basins, as discussed in the September 2006 report, and Mini-Basins U1, U2, U3, U4,
U6, U8, and U9 were added to address the development in the eastern portions of
the City Sewer Service Area. These were originally delineated for the previous
Ultimate analysis, but have incorporated some development since that time. Mini-
Basin 30C, which was formerly part of Basin 30A, was created, and Basin 46 was
split into two sub-basins, Mini-Basin 46 and 46-N orth. Other minor adjustments were
made to some of the basins boundaries due to additional development and
improvements to the network.
Figure 3-1 displays the mini-basin boundaries used in conjunction with the 2012
model.
Ultimate Model
The planning area boundaries are determined by physical service area
agreements between the City and other jurisdictions, including adjacent Cities and
Sewer Utility Districts. The Urban Growth Boundary designated by the King County
Comprehensive Plan determines much of the easterly planning boundary areas.
Most of the projected sewer area growth will occur to the areas east of the current
City limits, including a large non-sewered area within unincorporated King County
in the East Plateau service area.
S everal Mini-Basin boundaries were expanded to include the City’s sewer planning
area for the “Ultimate” conditions, so that the entire population projected to be
served by the City and the resultant sanitary sewage flows would be represented.
Topography and other geographic features were taken into account when
creating the new boundaries.
Three Basins east of the City, identified as U5, U7, and U10 included in the Ultimate
model, were also delineated for the previous Ultimate analysis. Basins U5, U10, and
the eastern portion of U9 are outside the East Plateau Service Area but

within the Ultimate Sewer Service Area. The areas of proposed future growth were
represented in the model, as a “skeletonized” system. Large portions of the other
U-Basins, including U4 and U6, are also currently without sewer.
Undeveloped portions of the U-Basins were generally represented in the model by
single nodes in the approximate centers of the proposed service areas, connected
to the appropriate discharge locations. Additionally, single nodes were assigned
as “point” loads at various locations in the model, where significant proposed
future service area is projected to connect to the existing system.
Figure 3-2 shows the mini-basin boundaries used in conjunction with the Ultimate
Model.
Land Use and Zoning
The land use and zoning map, adopted September 22, 2014, was obtained from
the City’s geodatabase and used for the planning data. The land use and zoning
designations within the City include single-family residential (generally ranging from
1 to 14 dwelling units per acre), several classifications of multifamily residential,
office, commercial, business, urban-center, and industrial zoning. There are also
many parks and open spaces in and around the City. Population assigned to the
model was grouped into the following four categories: single-family residential,
multifamily residential, employment, and schools. For the 2012 model, population
was assigned to the appropriate categories in the model by overlaying the land
use and zoning map with the map of the sewer system, and separating the
manholes into the four categories. Population was generally not assigned to
manholes within parks and open areas.
Future land use and zoning patterns used in the Ultimate Model for the planning
area were assumed to very closely correspond to existing uses (with a few
exceptions), based on discussions with the City Planning Department and
Planning/Building/Public Works Staff.
Data Projections
Population, household, and employment data was provided by the PSRC for the
years 2012 and 2040 for the entire sewer planning area (both inside and outside
current City limits). The data obtained for these years was provided in geographic
subdivisions based on the based on the sewer Mini-Basin boundaries provided to
PSRC by Stantec. With a few exceptions, each Mini-Basin included projected
growth of households and employment.
Residential
PSRC provided 2012 residential projections for the entire City of Renton Sewer
Service Area utilizing Land Use Baseline data. These projections included estimated
populations for single family and multi-family populations.
City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report Page 3.5
PLANNING DATA CHAPTER 3
The Land Use Baseline projections are available down to the parcel level.
However, the data was not been verified at this precision, and may contain some
inaccuracies. Also, PSRC did not provide verification for its cut of the data at the
mini-basin level, so we reviewed the data to determine if there were any obvious
inaccuracies. This was done by reviewing City GIS data within each mini-basin,
including land-use, parcel count, and aerial photos. King County Assessor’s
information, via King County’s online GIS interface, iMap, was also checked to
estimate volume of larger multi-family developments. Based on this review, the
populations for the following basins were modified:
• Basin 5 – The Land Use Baseline projections list 126 parcels and a single family
residential population of 169. City GIS data shows 170 parcels within the
basin, with an estimated 100 single family lots. A multiplier of 2.5 persons per
single family lot was used to estimate a single family residential population of
250 for this basin. The multi-f amily population supplied by PSRC is negligible,
and is consistent with the city GIS data.
• Basin 20 – The estimate from PSRC for this mini-basin encompassed the
Ultimate mini-basin boundary. T o estimate the population for the current
boundary, the total of 3,007 people was scaled on an area ratio of the
current/ultimate basins for an adjusted population of 2,390. The multi-family
development and zoning is all within the current mini-basin boundary, so this
population was not modified.
• Basin 25/Basin 43 – Both of these mini-basins include large mobile home
parks, which are not accounted for in the PSRC projections for either single-
family or multi-family populations. Basin 25 includes approximately 240
mobile homes, and Basin 43 includes approximately 200 mobile homes. T o
account for these populations, a multiplier of 1.8 (multi-family) was applied
to each mobile home, and the populations were added to the projections
supplied by PSRC. For Basin 25, the total residential population was adjusted
from 983 to 1,415. For Basin 43, the population was adjusted from 49 to 410.
• Basin U1 - The Land Use Baseline projections list 58 parcels and a single family
residential population of 255. City GIS data shows approximately 205 parcels
within the basin, with an estimated 197 single family lots. A multiplier of 2.5
persons per single family lot was used to estimate a single family residential
population of 490 for this basin. The multi-family population supplied by PSRC
is negligible, and is consistent with the GIS data.
• Basin U6 – The estimate from PSRC for this mini- basin encompassed the
ultimate mini-basin boundary. T o estimate the population for the current
boundary, the total of 2,050 people was scaled on an area ratio of the
current/ultimate basins for an adjusted population of 1,345. The multi-family
population supplied by PSRC is negligible, and is consistent with the GIS data.
It was not modified.
City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report Page 3.6
PLANNING DATA CHAPTER 3
• Basin U9 – The estimate from PSRC for this mini-basin encompassed the
ultimate mini-basin boundary. T o estimate the population for the current
boundary, the total of 1,268 people was scaled on an area ratio of the
current/ultimate basins for an adjusted population of 68. No multi-family
population was projected. This is consistent with the GIS data.
These modifications were reviewed by City of Renton Planning Department staff
and accepted.
Employment
Using Land Use Baseline data, PSRC provided 2012 employment projections for all
but six mini-basins within City of Renton Sewer Service Area. Projections were not
released for Basins 30C, 32, 50, 52, U3, and U8 due to confidentiality requirements
by the Employment Securities Department.
For those six basins, Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) data,
developed by the U.S. Census Bureau, was cut to the mini-basin boundaries. The
data listed is for the year 2011, which was the most recent data available.
As with the residential data, the employment data was reviewed. However, since it
is difficult to estimate employment populations for each business without
performing a detailed analysis of each min-basin, no obvious discrepancies
between the PSRC/LEHD projections and the GIS data were identified.
Schools
Using published data from the local school districts, including the Renton School
District and Issaq uah Schools, populations were determined for schools within the
existing sewer service area. Student populations were generally developed using
enrollment statistics for the 2011-2012 school year. Where available, school staffing
data was also collected and used to allocate employment population to the
schools in the model.
Future Population Projections
Residential
PSRC provided 2040 residential projections, using the Land Use Baseline data, for
the entire City of Renton Sewer Service Area. These projections included estimated
populations for single family and multi-family populations. Since these projections
were modeled using a large number of factors, it is difficult to review them solely
on zoning and land use designations. Because of this, none of the residential
projections were modified from the PSRC output, with the following exception:
• As part of the Thunder Hills Sanitary Sewer Interceptor analysis, A detailed
review of the projections for the the tributary areas was performed. It was
City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report Page 3.7
PLANNING DATA CHAPTER 3
determined that The PSRC projections for Mini-Basin 45 (which is tributary to
the Thunder Hills interceptor) for the year 2040 showed large decreases in
single and multi-family residential population, which is inconsistent with the
City’s Comprehensive Plan land use designations and current development
activity for the basin. Because of this, Stantec developed Ultimate
populations for the portions of Mini-Basin 45 tributary to the Thunder Hills
Interceptor by applying the growth percentages calculated for adjacent
Mini-Basin 3 based on PSRC estimates.
Employment
Future employment projections fall under the same restrictions as the current
population data, so PSRC provided 2040 employment projections, using the Land
Use Baseline data, for all but Basins 30C, 32, 50, 52, U3, and U8. Long-term LEHD
data is not developed, so this methodology could not be used for future
projections.
PSRC provided employment projections for its Land Use Targets dataset, which are
based on local growth targets that are aligned with the Vision 2040 Regional
Growth Strategy. This data is divided by TAZ (Traffic Analysis Zone), which is the
smallest delineation of the data made available to the public by PSRC. No similar
data set is available for the Land Use Baseline data. The long-term horizon for
these projections varies by city, since they were based on each City's
comprehensive planning period. For the City of Renton, year 2035 was the longest-
term projection.
To allocate this population data to the future sewer mini-basins, we divided the
populations for each TAZ into the mini-basins and using an area percentage of
each mini-basin within the overlapping TAZ. A TAZ may still include multiple basins,
city boundaries, and the UGA boundary in some cases. Each TAZ may also include
areas of varying residential and employment density due to land-use designations.
Because of this, a strict area to population ratio may not be an adequate
representation of the employment population. Th e projections for two of the six
mini-b asins appeared to be reasonable. However, t here were concerns about the
projections for the other four mini-basins. C oncerns and comments for the six mini-
basins, which were presented with the population projections to the City Planning
Department staff, are described below:
• Basin 30C – This basin is located in portions TAZ Zones 325, 324, and 325. The
developable areas within this basin are entirely residential at this time, and
have residential zoning and land use designations. A low or negligible
employment population would be anticipated.
• Basin 32 – Almost this entire basin is located in a portion TAZ Zone 324.
Approximately 50% of the basin has industrial land use designations, while the
rest of the basin is a mixture of urban center, residential and commercial
land-use designations. Much of the TAZ Zone 324 is south of Basin 32, and
includes large areas with Commercial Corridor and Urban Center Downtown
City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report Page 3.8
PLANNING DATA CHAPTER 3
land use designations, where more of the employment population is likely to
be located. Because of this, it appears that the employment projections for
Basin 32 are high.
• Basin 50 – Most of this basin is located in a part of TAZ Zone 323, with a small
portion in Zone 335. The land use designations are Urban Center North,
Industrial, and Commercial Corridor. Although there are commercial and
industrial land use designations outside of Basin 50 for both TAZ zones, the
employment population distribution does not appear to be disproportionate.
• Basin 52 - This basin is located in portions of TAZ Zones 322, 323, 324 and 325.
The land use designations within the basin are residential and industrial. The
area within Basin 325 is not developable. The employment population within
Zone 323 does not appear to be disproportionate. However, the
employment population projections for Zones 322 and 324 appear to be
high, for similar reasons as for Basin 32.
• Basin U3 – This Basin is located within parts of TAZ Zones 327 and 328. The
land use designations within the basin are primarily residential, but there is a
small area of the basin within Zone 322 with a commercial designation. Zone
327 contains a large cross-section of residential and commercial land-use
designations, so it is difficult to assess whether the employment population
projections within Basin U3 are accurate.
• Basin U8 - This basin covers a comparatively small area in relation to the
other basins. It is located within TAZ Zone 328, and the land use designation
is all single-family. Zone 328 included only single family residential land use
designations, so the employment population should be negligible.
The comments and data were reviewed by City of Renton Planning Department
staff, and the population data was accepted.
The 2040 data is considered to be Ultimate built-out population by City Planning
Staff. For hydraulic modeling purposes, most populations assigned to the model
were increased by an additional 25% per the City’s direction, to ensure an
adequate level of conservatism for the Ultimate scenario.
Schools
Since school enrollment projections are not available for 2040, school population
estimates were determined by applying the residential growth rate between 2012
and Ultimate conditions from the surrounding mini-basin. School staffing was
similarly adjusted to compensate for adjustments in school population.

Summary Report Page 3.9
PLANNING DATA CHAPTER 3
POPULATION AND SANITARY SEWAGE FLOW ASSIGNMENT TO MODEL
Population Assignment
I ndividual (per capita) flow rates were assigned to the residential and employment
population, consistent with the flow rate assigned to each Mini-Basin in the original
model, and later adjusted during the dry weather calibration process. Allowances
were made for large concentrations of population or employment. The following
outlines some of the main considerations for the process of population assignment
to the model:
• Population was generally assigned to manholes in four main categories:
residential single-family, residential multifamily, employment
(commercial/industrial, etc.), and schools. Population and employment
numbers for each composite mini-basin were apportioned among each
zoning category to achieve uniform flow distribution.
• Population was generally assigned to most of the nodes in the model.
Population was usually not assigned to the nodes associated with parks/open
space, non-served areas (transmission areas), lift stations, and bends
(population was assigned to Tees); these nodes were separated from the
others and excluded from the population assignments.
• Per the City, typical sewage flows for the residential category are generally
in the 60 to 100 gpcd range (not including I&I). Sewage flows from
multifamily individuals are typically about 2/3 of the flows from single family
individuals.
• Sewage flows for the employment category were generally assumed to be
10 gpcd (not including I&I), unless other information about higher demands
was available or apparent, or as necessary for calibration.
• Sewage flows for the school category were generally assumed to be 10 to 15
gpcd (not including I&I), unless other information about higher demands was
available or apparent. These values were roughly consistent with average
school flow rates from Table 2-4 of Wastewater Engineering by Metcalf and
Eddy (1991).
In areas where the mini-basin boundaries remained constant (no increase in area),
and no significant sewer improvements were added, generally the projected
population was evenly distributed among the existing nodes. Where mini-basin
boundaries expanded for the Ultimate Model, the population was often increased
by 25-50% for the existing manholes, and new area and new projected population
was generally assigned to new manholes or projected single point-loads outside of
and connected to the existing system. These populations were estimated based on
zoning and area.

PLANNING DATA CHAPTER 3
Table 3-1 summarizes the population and area assignments by mini-basin in the
2012 Model and the Ultimate Model. The population was separated into residential
single-family, residential multifamily, employment, and school categories. This
table updated the population assignments provided in the “City of Renton
Hydraulic Model Update – Population Projections” memo dated June 18, 2014.
Determination of Sanitary Sewer Flow Rates
The per capita sanitary sewage flow rates developed during the creation of the
2001 Mouse model were generally used in the 2012 and Ultimate models. A
description of the process for flow rate development is included in the text of the
documentation report. Flows for new catchments within existing basin were initially
assigned the same flows as existing adjacent areas based on development, a nd
adjustments were made during the model dry weather calibration.

PLANNING DATA CHAPTER 3
The same per capita flow rates and diurnal curves were used in both the 2012 and
Ultimate Models for the portions of the system common to both models. These per
capita flow rates were computed as part of the dry weather calibration for the
2012 Model. For population assigned to manholes located in the U-Basins, 100
gallons per person per day was assumed for residential population, and a peaking
factor of 2.0 was globally applied to this flow rate. Twenty (20) gallons per person
per day was assigned for employment population, per direction from the City Staff.
For new schools in the projected service area, 15 gallons per person per day was
assigned to the model. With this methodology, calibrated diurnal curves were
applied to the existing manholes, and an averaged flow rate was applied to
population assigned to new manholes.
Input to Model
Flows for the newly-added portions of sewer system were assigned to new
catchments. Numbering methodology is consistent with the original model
development, and was assigned in sequential order. In cases where portions of the
sewer system were upgraded or re-routed, existing catchment information w as re-
assigned to new manholes.
Area Assignments
For the older portions of the model, area assignments were generally not modified
from the original MOUSE model development. A description of the process for area
assignment is included in the text of the documentation report.
For portions of the 2012 model developed in Mike Urban, the City parcel GIS data
w as overlaid in the model, and catchments were drawn directly over the se
developments. Where the new development included multiple manholes, a
routine in Mike Urban automatically divided the catchments among the manholes
within the development boundary. I f additional manholes were added to a mini-
basin with a constant boundary, the areas of the older surrounding catchments
were reduced.
Areas assigned to the Ultimate Model were generally consistent with the
methodology used for area assignments to the 2012 Model. Additionally, “dummy”
nodes were added to represent future projected growth areas within the proposed
service area boundaries. Large areas (point loads) were added to these dummy
nodes to represent the discharges to the system from future growth. For example,
s everal dummy nodes were used in the portions of the U-Basins where gravity sewer
systems have not yet been constructed.

PLANNING DATA CHAPTER 3
RAINFALL AND EVAPORATION ASSIGNMENTS
Rainfall Assignments
King County developed model basin specific precipitation time series as part of its
2001 I&I study by using Doppler radar to identify the varying precipitation patterns
between rain gauges and factoring the gauge data accordingly. These
precipitation data sets were developed for a 60-year period based from SeaTac
d ata, and spliced with local rain gauge data for the period of time the County flow
monitors were in place, resulting in a specific precipitation data set for each
monitoring basin. Each Model Basin was assigned 60 years of factored data
coupled with two years of more exact measured precipitation data. These rainfall
time series were used in the original MOUSE model analysis, and most of the
subsequent model analyses performed for the City. King County used these time
series for its recent anal ysis, so they were also used for the City’s 2012 models.
For system improvements constructed within the U-Basins, a global I&I assignment
of 1,500 gallons per acre per day was assumed and connected to the model.
Evaporation
Evaporation data was obtained from the historical Puyallup pan evaporation data
record. The data is no longer collected at that location and no other known
sources of evaporation data exist in the area. As a result, historical monthly
averages of the Puyallup data were determined and input to the model. The
County adopted a similar average monthly approach to input evaporation data
into the model. A standard pan evaporation factor of 0.75 has been applied to
the data. King County provided an updated evaporation time series which
extends through 2015.
The rainfall and evaporation assignments assigned to the Ultimate Model were
consistent with those applied to the 2012 Model. This rainfall data included 60-
years of data spliced with two years of more specific rainfall data from King
County’s flow monitoring program. Each model basin had a separate targeted
rainfall assignment which was applied consistently to all of nodes (catchments)
contained within.
External Boundary Flows
Boundary flows enter the City of Renton Sewer Service area at multiple points in the
system. Some of these flows discharge from other sewer systems into the City’s
sewers, while others flow into the King County sewers within the City’s Sewer Service
Area boundary. These boundary flows are described below:

CHAPTER 4 MODEL CALIBRATION
Model calibration consists of two primary tasks: sanitary and I&I calibration. It is
important to distinguish between these separate components, to more accurately
simulate future scenario changes in pipe flows related to changing population and
employment as well as assumptions about I&I changes over time. Understanding
the characteristics of these individual components of pipe flow is a key element in
developing the model.
Calibration parameters were generally based on the guidelines found in the 2002
Wastewater Planning Users Group Code of Practice for the Hydraulic Modeling of Sewer
Systems.
The code recommends that sanitary flow verification should be carried out for two dry
weather days and the predicted flows/depths compared to the observed flows/depths.
The two flow hydrographs should closely follow each other both in shape and in
magnitude. In addition to the shape, as a general guide, the flow hydrographs should
meet the following criteria:
• The timing of the peaks and troughs should be within 1 hour.
• The peak flow rate should be in the range ± 10%.
• The volume of flow should be in the range ±10%. Care should be taken to exclude
periods of missing or inaccurate data.
For wet weather calibration, modeled flows/depths should be compared to the observed
flows/depths. The two flow hydrographs should closely follow each other both in shape
and in magnitude, until the flow has substantially returned to dry weather flow rates. In
addition to the shape, as a general guide, the observed and modeled hydrographs should
meet the following criteria in at least two of the three events:
• The timing of the peaks and troughs should be similar inregard to the duration of
the event.
• The peak flow rates at each significant peak should be in the range + 25% to -
15% and should be generally similar throughout the event.
• The volume of flow should be in the range +20% to -10%. Care should be taken to
exclude periods of missing or inaccurate data.
• The depth of surcharge should be in the range +0.5 m to - 0.1 m.
• The unsurcharged depth at any key points, where this is important regarding the
objectives of the model (e.g. at combined sewer overflows), should be within the
range ±100 mm.
Where rainfall induced infiltration is modeled, the use of a single verification period
incorporating a number of rainfall events should be considered instead of a number of
discrete events.

MODEL CALIBRATION CHAPTER 4
For the purposes of this model calibration, for both sanitary and wet weather, peak flow
and volume parameters for the model were verified against the flow monitoring data, as
well as a comparison of general flow patterns and timing of peaks.
2012 MODEL DRY WEATHER CALIBRATION
Sanitary Flow Calibration
Sanitary calibration consists of two primary elements: the total flow produced per
person over a 24-hour (diurnal) period and the definition of how that flow
fluctuates over the same period. This information, combined with the previously
discussed population and employment data, generate the total sanitary flow
simulated in the model.
Prior to determining per capita flow rates and diurnal fluctuations, periods of “dry
weather” flow have to be identified for the County flow monitoring data. A dry
weather period in September 2010 was analyzed for the dry weather calibration.
Since dry weather flow typically includes a component of low level or base I&I, it
must be estimated and subtracted from the total flow, leaving presumably sanitary
flow only. Base I&I values were determined by estimating typical minimum (nightly)
sanitary flow as a percent of average and assuming the balance is base I&I. Base
I&I was assumed to be constant throughout the day.
Residential flow typically varies throughout the day in a different manner than
commercial/industrial sanitary flow. Residential flow generally peaks twice during
the day, while commercial/industrial flow typically increases in the morning, stays
relatively constant during the day, and decreases in the evening. Numerous
exceptions exist to these generalized variations however. Commercial/industrial
flow for example can exhibit all manner of daily variations, depending on the
nature of the business conducted at the location. A thorough understanding of
these businesses is required to accurately simulate the daily fluctuations and
achieve a detailed sanitary flow calibration. It is possible however, to achieve an
accurate calibration by applying the composite diurnal variation recorded at the
flow monitor to both residential and commercial/industrial development
throughout the basin represented by the flow monitor. Lacking extensive
knowledge of commercial/industrial developments and additionally to expedite
the calibration process, this was the method selected to determine the sanitary
flow calibration. This method allows for a quick, accurate calibration, but could
potentially result in misrepresentation of diurnal fluctuations in future scenarios, if
the balance between residential and commercial/industrial populations changes
significantly. The potential shortcomings are considered to be negligible however,
especially since it is difficult to accurately forecast how anticipated additional
commercial/industrial flows will vary in the future.
Dry weather calibration was verified by performing a sanitary flow model
simulation, using the data assigned to the catchments and dry weather flow
entries. External boundary flows were simulated by attaching time series of the
flow monitoring data from the August-September 2010 period. The resulting basin
City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report Page 4.2
MODEL CALIBRATION CHAPTER 4
outlet flows were compared to the County “dry day” flow monitoring data. If the
curve shape generated by the model (Model Output) generally matched the
metered curve shape (Model Input) and the total daily volume was within 10%, the
basin was considered calibrated for sanitary flow. Output graphs of the computed
dry weather flows versus the measured King County flows (excluding the base I&I)
were generated for each mini-basin. The dry calibration resulted in computed
model peak flows and volumes that closely simulated the measured flows in six of
the ele ven locations analyzed. In some cases, including RNT41, RNT43, and
SRENT002, the modeled peaks and volumes were much higher than the recorded
flows. However, in these basins, the modeled peak per capita flow rates were
already low based on population and land use. These were not adjusted further to
match the flow monitoring data. Some of the discrepancy in overall volume in
these basins is due to significant “noise”, or small peaks, in the flow monitoring
data, in addition to the per capita flow rate assumptions. T he model output is
much smoother, which leads to significant differences in volume. Because of this,
the overall shape of the model output was compared against the flow monitoring
data. We were generally more focused on closely simulating the peak dry weather
flows rather than the volumes, to be conservative, and also due to the “noise” and
drop-outs in the flow monitoring results. Overall, the shape and timing of the
patterns adequately matches the flow monitoring data.
Flow monitoring data was not available for the boundary flows at SINT020 and
BLS043, so constant dry weather flows were estimated. These two boundary flows
do not flow through City sewers, so the impact to the dry weather calibration is
negligible.
A number of model basins were not calibrated with 2010 flow monitoring data, as
are noted in the next section in Table 4-4 . For those, the per capita flow rates from
the original model calibration were maintained in this model. Th e basins that were
calibrated as part of this project were calibrated in 2015, while the others were
calibrated in 2005.
Th e calibration for RNT030B and RNT047 were only partially successful. Since RNT035
is upstream of both RNT030B, and could not be recalibrated, it was difficult to
adjust the dry weather flow parameters within RNT035. There were similar difficulties
with RNT047.
A dry weather calibration summary is provided in Table 4-1 . The summary lists the
percentage deviation of the calibration model results from the flow monitoring
data for peak flow and total volume of flow over the duration of the analysis.

2012 MODEL WET WEATHER CALIBRATION
Infiltration and Inflow Calibration
Infiltration and inflow is represented in the Mike Urban model as two individual
components. The fast response component (FRC) is characterized by a rapid
increase in pipe flow corresponding to a rainfall event. The rapid increase results in
a sharp peak and is followed by a rapid decrease in flow. This type of flow
typically comes from a direct hydraulic connection between an impervious or
nearly impervious surface and the piping system. The slow response component
(SRC) is characterized by a somewhat delayed response to a rainfall event, a
smaller, broader peak and a relatively slower decrease in pipe flow. SRC flow is

Summary Report Page 4.6
MODEL CALIBRATION CHAPTER 4
generated from overland flow, near surface and groundwater intrusion into the
piping system. SRC flow includes base I&I.
Mike Urban contains a choice of multiple options or models for generating I&I.
Given the wealth of flow monitoring and precipitation data, it was decided to use
the more complex RDII module to generate the SRC, consistent with the
methodology employed by King County, and that used in the original MOUSE
model development. The RDII module requires calibration to a number of
parameter values that govern the algorithms defining the hydrologic process and
the resulting potential inflow into the sewer collection system. When properly
calibrated, the RDII module provides the best overall representation of the SRC.
The FRC was generated using the “A” model, with simplified algorithms governing
the timing, shape and volume of the hydrologic response.
The I&I calibration involved identification of parameter values for the SRC
component (after sanitary calibration was completed) then development of the
FRC component parameters, which essentially “finish off” the hydrographs. The
County’s 2008 through 2011 flow monitoring data was used for I&I calibration.
There were a few significant storms over this period, including the December 12/13 ,
2010 storm, which produced a rainfall of approximately 2.5 inches over a 24-hour
period, which is equivalent to a 10-year storm, based on King County Drainage
Manual rainfall isopluvials.
External boundary flows were simulated by attaching time series of the flow
monitoring data from the December 12/13, 2010 storm. Other peak flow events
were also considered. However, this was the only one were usable flow monitoring
data was available for most of the model basins. As with the dry weather
calibration, flow monitoring data was not available for the boundary flows at
SINT020 and BLS043, so constant wet weather flows were estimated and assigned.
Mike Urban RDII parameters are typically adjusted to match base I&I first, then
peak flows resulting from rainfall events. Possibly the most important parameter
controlling base I&I is the percent of total basin area contributing to pipe flow. A
high base I&I, for example, can be simulated in the model by assuming a relatively
high contributing area percentage, then adjusting additional parameter values to
contribute a higher percentage of runoff to base flow versus surface runoff.
A wet weather calibration summary is provided in Table 4-3 . The summary lists the
percentage deviation between the model results and the flow monitoring data for
peak flow and total volume of flow over the duration of the analysis. Six of the
eleven model basins met standards for volume. The calibration for volume for
RNT028 and RNT043 was not as successful, deviating from acceptable standards by
approximately 5%. The volume deviation is significantly greater for RNT017. As with
the dry weather calibration, t his is due to significant “noise” in the flow monitoring
data. RNT017 especially contains a lot of small peaks, whereas the model output is
much smoother. This contributes to the large discrepancy in volume. Because of
this, the overall shape of the model output RNT017, RNT028, and RNT043 was
compared against the flow monitoring data. Overall, the shape and timing of the
patterns matches the flow monitoring data. Th e flow monitor for RENT65 failed

Non-Calibrated Model Basins
Several of the King County model basins had complications including faulty or
missing flow-monitoring data, and inconsistent dry weather flow. Table 4-4 identifies
the City mini-basins that were not calibrated for dry and wet weather, with a brief
explanation for each:

For the above-listed mini-basins, since wet weather calibration was not attainable,
the RDII parameters from the original model calibration were maintained in this
model, with minor adjustments to address increased I/I due to pipe degradation.
Ultimate Model Inflow and Infiltration Parameters
The calibrated I&I parameters used for the 2012 Model were applied to the
Ultimate Model for the calibrated portion of model (sewer system constructed prior
to mid-2002), except that the I&I was globally increased per King County’s previous
methodology, which assumes a 7.0% increase per decade, to a maximum
degradation of 28.0% for Ultimate conditions. The ramifications of the system
degradation-related I&I assumptions are discussed further in this report. For system
improvements constructed for the Ultimate model, a global I&I assignment of 1500
gallons per acre per day was assumed and connected to the model.

CHAPTER 5 ANALYSIS AND RESULTS
2012 MODEL PEAK FLOW AND CAPACITY ANALYSIS
External Boundary Flows
In order to model in flows into the County’s piping systems within the approximate
City limits, discharge time series for the peak storms were developed from the
County’s 2012 I/I study MOUSE output, and assigned at upstream locations in the
King County interceptors. For the boundary flows from SOO003 and RNT042, where
output model data was not available, peak 20-year design inflows were assigned
as constant inflow conditions. Although use of the County model output better
simulates flows from upstream areas within the County system, variations between
the King County Model and the Renton model contributed to some surcharging
and capacity issues in portions of the system not shown in the County’s results.
Peak Storm
For the prior analysis, the County provided a chart ranking the six highest peak
flow-generating storm events within each model basin in the vicinity of the City.
The peak storm events were determined by the County by routing 60 years of
rainfall data through the County’s calibrated model. The storms identified on the
chart were assumed to roughly correspond (in decreasing ranking) to the 60, 30,
20, 15, 12, and 10-year design flow events.
Of the eleven model basins within the City boundaries, the County identified nine
different storm events which generated the 20-year peak flows (third-ranked peak
flow generating events) for the basins. Rather than running the model nine
separate times to capture all of the 20-year events, four separate storm events
were selected to generate the either the 20-year or 30-year peak flow rates for all
eleven model basins. This simplified methodology was acceptable to the City staff.
The selected rainfall events are summarized in Table 5-1 below by model basin.
Although King County modified some of its model basin boundaries for it 2012 I/I
analysis, for the purposes of the City of Renton models, the original model basin
boundaries developed for the 2001 I/I study were applied to the 2012 analysis.
Figure 5-1 shows the selected storm events for each model basin.

In addition to the assignments listed in the table above, there were four mini-basins
not calibrated by King County, and not included with the model basins (Mini-Basins
RNT08, RNT09, A, and portions of Mini-Basin B), all of which are independently
tributary to King County interceptors near the treatment plant. All four of these
mini-basins were in the proximity of Model Basins ESI1003 and SINT001, and were
similarly assigned the February 8, 1996 storm event.
Analysis Results
Figure 5-2 displays the overall modeled system with pipes color-coded by peak
flows divided by maximum capacity (Q/Full) based on Manning’s equation for the
model analysis period. The map was color-coded as listed below:

0.6 to 0.8 Blue
0.8 to 1.0 Green
1.0 to 1.2 Orange

Summary Report Page 5.3
ANALYSIS & RESULTS Chapter 5
All pipes with ratios greater than 0.8 are considered to be exceeding their
capacity. Pipes colored blue indicate pipes that are close to but not exceeding
this capacity standard. The map has individual areas with capacity problems
identified. The problem areas were labeled based on mini-basins within the City.
For example, if Mini-Basin 65 has two problem areas, they would be identified as
65A and 65B, respectively. Only City piping was identified in the problem areas.
Areas where County piping exceeded 0.8 were not labeled.
Problem areas were classified by the degree of surcharging and summarized in
Table 5-2 , which is arranged by profile and includes a location des cription, the
duration of surcharging above the crown of the pipe (where applicable), the
duration of surcharging above manhole rims (where applicable), a brief listing of
the suspected cause of the problem or any special conditions, and a ranking of
the severity of the problem. The surcharging issues are ranked as Minor, Moderate,
or Severe. Minor problems were classified as pipes with insignificant to no
surcharging (often in the 0.8 to 1.0 Q/Q F ull category). Moderate problems
represent areas with surcharging to more significant levels or durations, but
contained within the sewer system. Severe problems represent areas with
significant surcharging heights and durations and any areas with where the flow
overtops the manholes. Figures 5-2A to 5-2S (which are referenced in the Table)
are included in Appendix C , and provide zoomed-in views of the problem areas
sh own in Figure 5-2.
Attaching constant peak inflows for the boundary flows was conservative, as
mentioned above. The constant inflows caused the discharge in some of the mini-
basins to look non-standard, including Mini-Basins 4, 42, 46, and 65. For each of
these mini-basins, the incoming constant peak boundary flow dominates the local
flows, such that the peaks caused by the individual mini-basins do not appear to
contribute as significantly to the total flow as may appear at some of the other
mini-basins. Additionally, Mini-Basin 50 has severe surcharging issues in the King
County trunk sewer, which significantly influences flows in the downstream system.
The County has indicated it is aware of the capacity issues and is working to
resolve them.
A table and figures detailing the discharge at the outlet of each mini-basin are
summarized in the next section in Table 5-3 , along with the output from the Ultimate
Model.

ULTIMATE MODEL PEAK FLOW AND CAPACITY ANALYSIS
Peak Storm
The peak storm rainfall events assigned to the 2012 Model were assigned to the
Ul timate model using the same methodology.
The County did not conduct hydraulic modeling for its future development
scenarios. Instead, it determined the 20-year peak flows for locations within its
sewer system, and appl ied a growth factor to determine to 20-year peak flows at
10-year intervals. So to use the boundary time series developed for the 2012
analysis for the external boundary flows, the flow rates were multiplied by a fact or
based on a ratio of the County’s 2010 and 2060 20-year peak flow rates. As with
the 2012 model, 20-year constant peak flow rates were assigned at the other
locations. This conservative assumption contributed to surcharging and capacity
issues in portions of the system.
Analysis Results
Table 5-3 summarizes the peak flow at the outlet from each mini-basin and the
corresponding storm events from the 2012 and Ultimate Model analysis. For some
of the mini-basins, the peak flow from the 2012 Model exceeds the peak flow from
the Ultimate Model, or does not significantly increase for the Ultimate Model. In
some of these cases, changes in the sewer system or assumptions rerouted or
decreased flow to certain mini-basins.

ANALYSIS & RESULTS
Figure 5-3 identifies pipes color-coded by the ratios of peak flow rates to maximum
pipe capacities (Q/Q Full) for the ultimate analysis, consistent with the
methodology and format used for the 2012 Model analysis. Where possible, the
same exact problem area labels were used from the 2012 Model analysis, with
additional problem areas identified within each mini-basin as needed. Only City
piping was identified in the problem areas; areas where County piping exceeded a
Q-ratio of 0.8 were not labeled. The problem areas were summarized and
classified in Table 5-4 based on the degree of surcharging. This table includes a
location description, the duration of surcharging above the crown of the pipe
(where applicable), the duration of surcharging above manhole rims (where
applicable), a brief listing of the suspected cause of the problem or any special
conditions for severe problems, and a ranking of the severity of each problem.
Figures 5-3A to 5-3S, which are referenced in the Table, are included in Appendix
D . Blow-ups of the problem areas are sh own in Figure 5-3.
Surcharging problems in the system are generally the result of insufficient capacity
in the City’s pipes, compounded by backwater from the County’s trunk lines in
some instances. There are several connections in Mini-Basins A and B where
sections of the City’s pipe are modeled below the hydraulic grade line of the
County system. These problem areas in Mini-Basins A and B could potentially be
related to the vertical datum assumptions.
Assigning the constant peak inflows for the boundary flows was conservative, as
mentioned above. The constant inflows caused the discharge in some of the mini-
basins to look non-standard, including Mini-Basins 4, 42, 46, and 65. For each of
these mini-basins, the incoming constant peak boundary flow dominates the local
flows, such that the peaks caused by the individual mini-basins do not appear to
contribute as significantly to the total flow as may appear at some of the other
mini-basins. Additionally, Mini-Basin 50 has severe surcharging issues in the King
County trunk sewer, which significantly influences flows in the downstream system.

ANALYSIS & RESULTS Chapter 5
Based on discussions with Bruce Nairn of King County, the County’s interceptor
located in Mini-Basin 50 has significant potential surcharging issues, primarily due to
severe I&I problems in the upstream County-owned system. S urcharging potential
was evident in the 2012 Model Analysis, and significantly more pronounced in the
Ultimate Model Analysis. T he County plans to install a storage facility to dampen
peak flows or implement an I&I repair and reduction program for the upstream
system, or both. For the Ultimate Model analysis, it was assumed that this County
trunk line would be at capacity (rather than significantly exceeding capacity)
during the 20-year design flow-generating event, resulting from the future
improvements. As a result of this assumption, the County’s trunk sewer would not
cause backwater effects in the City’s sewer mains within Mini-Basin 50. Further
coordination with the County is recommended with regard to the significant future
zoning densification projected in the City, adjacent to their trunk sewer, within Mini-
Basin 50.
During the Ultimate Model analysis, some lift stations overtopped significantly; to
the extent that the model could not complete its computations. These lift stations
include East Valley (L04), Airport (L03), Stoneg ate (L29), and Long (L07). T he pumps
in each of these cases were upsized to accommodate the peak flow rate with a
single pump in operation to allow MIKE URBAN to complete the computations. The
Airport and Stonegate pumps were modeled based on projected peak pump
capa cities with as-designed impelle r upgrades. Since most or all of the City’s lift
stations appear to only contain two duty pumps, any of the duplex stations
operating with more than one pump would function beyond their design capacity.
The I&I increase assumption of 7% per decade and a maximum of 28% for the
Ultimate Model may be overly conservative for newer portions of the City
constructed primarily with PVC and ductile iron pipes. These system degradation
assumptions may be reasonable for the older portions of the system. During future
analysis, pipe material and age should be taken into consideration in addition to
flow monitoring. Also, the degree of I&I reduction efforts by the City should be
taken into consideration for flow modeling. It may be more practical to assume
lower degradation rates for some of the newer portions of the system. For sewer
system locat ed in the “U” Basins, standard I&I assumptions (1500 gallons per day
per acre) were used, with no applied degradation. It may be desirable to
incorporate some degradation (such as 7%) for the newer system in future analyses.
No flow monitors were associated with Mini-Basin A and a portion of B, which have
multiple discharges to KC trunks; there was no check on the accuracy of these
flows. The flows were generated from standard sanitary and I&I assumptions rather
than subtracted from the South Interceptor. I&I parameters used by KC from an
adjacent Model Basin were assigned, which may or may not be representative of
actual conditions. Further monitoring and analysis is recommended (see Chapter
6).
Although flows were calibrated to reasonable accuracy based on King County’s
2008-2011 flow monitoring data, all of the flows in the Ultimate Model are more
heavily based on assumptions and projections, as detailed herein. It is advisable to

conduct additional flow monitoring and analysis to verify the existence and extent
of projected problem areas in the City’s system.
LIFT STATION AND FORCE MAIN ANALYSIS
A review of lift station and force main capacity was conducted for the 2012 and
Ultimate model analysis. In each case, the model results were reviewed to
determine the number of pumps operating during the peak storm event, and the
maximum velocity of the flow in each force main. Typically, lift stations are
designed so that a single pump is able to convey the peak 20-year flow. Flow
velocities in the force main should be a maximum of 8 feet per second. Results are
shown in Table 5-5.

ANALYSIS & RESULTS Chapter 5
Results of the analysis show that most of the lift stations and all of the force mains
are capable of conveying projected flows for 2012, as well as u ltimate scenarios.
There are three lift stations which may have capacity problems based on the
analysis. Misty Cove and Baxter Lift Stations are located in Mini Basin 54, which was
calibrated in 2005. The service area for Baxter Lift Station includes large multi-
family development which was added since the model calibration, and may be
simulating sanitary flows that are larger than what actually occurs. The second
pump for Misty Cove Lift Station only activated 3 times during the peak storm
event.
East Valley Lift Station also exceeded its capacity during both simulations. T he City
provided data for this lift station during the calibration process. This data indicated
that a second pump did activate a few times during the December 2010 storm
used in the Calibration.
T he second pump did not activate for Long Lift Station7. However, the station was
close to its single pump capacity during the ultimate model simulation. Therefore, it
is possible that the l ift s tation will eventually exceed its capacity if the service area
sees significant population growth.
INFILTRATION AND INFLOW ANALYSIS
The runoff simulations for the 2012 model analysis were reviewed to estimate the
peak inflow to the sewer system due to infiltration and inflow. This was done by
determining the peak modeled RDII flow rate for the catchments in each
calibrated mini-basin and dividing this by the area. Results of this analysis are
provided in Table 5-6 .

1) RDII parameters determined in the 2005 wet weather calibration were set using wet weather at the Mini-Basin level.
Those modified in the 2015 calibration were set at the model basin level.
* Mini-Basin Basin 30C was calibrated with Basin 30A.
** RDII parameters for Mini-Basins A and B were not calibrated. During the 2005 model development, RDII parameters
from adjacent basins with similar land use were assigned.
Peak I/I flow rates for a 15 basins are very high, exceeding 6,000 gallons per acre
per day. The calibration for many of these basins was performed in 2005. The I/I
flow rates for Mini-Basin 5 and 13 exceed 15,000 gallons per acre per day.
Although the calibration for Mini-Basin 5 was performed in 2015, it was done at the
model basin level, and included decreases in the I/I parameters from the prior
calibration. Mini-Basin 13 was calibrated in 2005. The 2012 and Ultimate model
results show pipe capacity problems for many of the basins with high I/I flow rates..
Therefore, we recommend additional flow monitoring to verify the calibration in
these basins. The Mini-Basin 44 I/I flow rate is extremely low, so flow-monitoring is
also recommended to for this basin. See Chapter 6 for further discussion.

CHAPTER 6 RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUMMARY
This section of the report includes the recommendations for future flow
monitoring and model updates. A summary of the King County hydraulic
model compatibility and limitations of the model have also been included.
FLOW MONITORING RECOMMENDATIONS
As mentioned previously in this report, additional flow monitoring and
analysis can be a worthwhile supplement to hydraulic modeling and
verification of capacity deficiencies. Figure 6-1 (located at the end of this
chapter) i dentifies recommended future modeling locations, and Table 6-1
lists the specific recommended locations for future monitors in addition to
the general categories of the monitors. Figure 6-1 includes the following
four categories of flow meters:
1.Locations of King County flow monitors from 2008-2011 (Black Rings ):
These are locations where flow moni toring was conducted by King
County for the decennial monitoring program, but much of the
recorded data was missing or errant due to flow monitor issues.
Additional monitoring is warranted at these locations to verify the
flows in the tributary basins.
2.L ocations which King County did not monitor from 2008-2011
(Orange Rings): These locations include large tributary basin areas,
and were not monitored. In some cases, downstream monitors did
collect these tributary flow data, but the data is not detailed enough
to examine the smaller upstream areas. Other locations are newer
Mini-Basins or S ub-B asins, which have seen substantial growth since
the model was developed. Monitoring is warranted at these
locations to verify the flows in the tributary basins.
3.New flow meter locations to monitor specific 2012 Model problem
areas (Violet Rings ): These locations would provide targeted
monitoring to isolate and verify some of the more serious problem
areas as identified by the 2012 Model Peak Flow Analysis. These
areas are typically not immediately adjacent to previous flow
monitor locations, or would be used to separate large branches of
upstream sewer to help identify the cause and location of problems.
Where feasible, attempts were made to select locations where a
single meter could be used to help verify more than one problem
area.
4.New f low m eter l ocations to m onitor s pecific Ultimate Model p roblem
a reas (Blue Rings): These locations would provide targeted
monitoring to isolate and verify some of the more serious problem
areas as identified by the Ultimate Model Peak Flow Analysis. These

areas are typically not immediately adjacent to previous flow
monitor locations, or would be used to separate large branches of
upstream sewer to help identify the cause and location of problems.
Where feasible, attempts were made to select locations where a
single meter could be used to help verify more than one problem
area.
It might be wise to install flow monitors for suspected problem areas using a
phased approach, rather than installing all of the meters at the same time.
This would allow more opportunity for evaluation of the metering to make
sure useful and reliable data is being provided.
Installation of flow meters at new locations or locations where data
previously collected by King County was errant may potentially be a
collaborative effort with King County, with each party sharing information
and possibly expenses. Targeted use of flow meters could help locate areas
with higher than normal I&I issues, which could potentially be repaired to
avoid downstream piping upsizing and modifications. Flow monitors can be
used to verify or refute projected capacity problems, potentially eliminating
costly projects or providing confidence that improvements are warranted.

KING COUNTY COMPATIBILITY
The model was updated with the intent of achieving general compatibility
with the models developed by King County during the Regional I&I study.
Many of the assumptions and methodologies employed by the City and
County models are consistent. Overall, the models are fairly compatible,
and data can be shared between the models in a relatively straightforward
fashion. Some of the main similarities between the models are listed below:
City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report Page 6.3
RECOMMENDATIONS & SUMMARY Chapter 6
•B oth models use the MOUSE hydraulic engine (MIKE URBAN r uns on the
MOUSE engine).
•The same formula was used for computing the base I&I for each mini-
basin in the two models.
•Both models include population projections based on PSRC planning
data.
•Both models use similar RDII parameters.
•Both models were calibrated to the same dry weather and wet
weather flow monitoring data.
•DHI worked on calibrating the County’s and City’s original models for
the wet weather season, and employed a similar methodology for
both.
•Both models use similar rainfall gauge assignments.
•Both models feature detailed representations of King County trunklines
within the City boundaries.
•Boundary flow assignments to the City’s model conservatively
represent boundary flow rates computed by King County.
•Both models incorporate an assumed system degradation resulting in
an I&I increase of 7.0 percent per decade. The City of Renton
assumes a maximum increase of 28.0 percent for the Ultimate Models,
whereas King County does not apply a cap for future projections.
•Both models use the same hydraulic engine and computations, and
both feature a similar overall set-up.
There are some key differences between the City’s model and the King
County models. The City’s model is much more detailed than any of the
County’s models in terms of the representation of the physical system. The
majority of the City’s system is included in the model, with flow present in all
of the pipes. The physical detail in the City’s model allows it to be a
powerful hydraulic tool for evaluation of system capacity at a local level.
With the City’s model, it is possible to evaluate pipes as small as 8-inch
diameter to evaluate capacity, throughout the City. The County’s model is
intended to be a regional tool used to evaluate I&I and system capacity at
a much broader and less refined level. With the models developed by the
County, hydraulic evaluation of large sewer trunks is possible, but generally
not smaller pipes. The County’s models are primarily hydrology models, with
hydraulics for trunks. The City’s model is both a hydrologic and hydraulic
model throughout. Some other key differences in the models are
summarized below:
City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report Page 6.4
RECOMMENDATIONS & SUMMARY Chapter 6
•The population is assigned more representatively to the City’s model,
by zoning categories. The City’s model has individual populations
assigned to manholes by zone, while the County’s model feature lump
net flow assignments, not targeted to specific zoning categories by
individual manholes. The net results at the outlet of each mini-basin
should be similar, but the flow in the local system is more
representative in the City’s model.
•A conservative factor of 25% was added to all of the projected
populations within the City’s model. The County may have applied
different measures of conservatism into their models, but it is believed
that they did not apply a 25% increase to the population assignments.
•Efforts were made in the City’s model to check to make sure realistic
per capita flow rates were assigned, and adjustments to projected
population distributions were made as deemed appropriate.
•The area assignments between the models differ. King County
applied several discount factors reducing the area assigned to each
mini-basin. In the City’s model, the overall areas (generally not
including parks and open space) were equally assigned to all of the
manholes within each mini-basin. As a result, much larger overall
areas were assigned to the 2012 Renton Model. This does not create
a difference in the calibrated wet weather flows for the 2012 model,
but may have an impact to flows in the Ultimate Model and future
scenarios.
•The City’s model has the ability to accurately simulate lift station
operation and settings, whereas the County’s models did not
generally include that level of detail. The County did not model lift
station operation, focusing instead on the larger picture.
•The original wet weather calibration for Renton’s model started with
similar RDII parameters to King County, but these were refined by DHI,
and further refined by Stantec to provide a more representative and
system specific calibration.
•The County performed complex statistical analyses and developed
synthetic storm events to represent 20-year peak flows within the
various basins. The scope and budget of the City’s model did not
support this level of analysis. Per the County’s suggestion, events
ranked by the County were assumed to represent the various storm
events used for the City’s analyses.
•The County’s Ultimate models do not use diurnal sanitary flows;
instead, they use a constant average sanitary flow rate throughout
the model simulations.
•Due to the system-specific detail in the City’s model, it takes
significantly longer to perform computations.
City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report Page 6.5
RECOMMENDATIONS & SUMMARY Chapter 6
•The County generally uses more conservative I&I assumptions (such as
2,000 gallons per acre per day) for areas projected to be served in
the future (the City generally used 1500 gallons per acre pre day for
new projected areas).
LIMITATIONS OF THE MODEL
The limitations of the model generally relate to limitations in the data and
assumptions used to develop the model, the budget used to develop the
model, and limitations of the software. Some of the main limitations are
summarized below:
•The data used to develop the City’s model was found to contain a
large volume of missing information, incorrect information, and
inconsistencies. Numerous assumptions were used to correct this
data, including interpolations and datum assumptions. Although the
piping in the model all flows downhill, there is certainly a portion of
model data that is inaccurate to some extent.
•The diurnal curves assigned to the model apply to the overall mini-
basins. Targeted diurnal curves used for each zoning category were
not used; therefore, although flow is represented in all of the piping
throughout the model, it can be considered an average of the
upstream flow generation at any point. The diurnal curve applied to
any node within a mini-basin will have the average flow values for the
total system, but may not represent the actual specific flow patterns
from an individual area, such as a school. The diurnal patterns
generally represent the overall make-up of the mini-basins (residential
versus employment, etc.).
•Although I&I is assigned to most of the manholes in each mini-basin,
weighted areas to each manhole were not assigned; most manholes
typically receive the average area for the mini-basin. This functions to
distribute average mini-basin I&I rates to each manhole, but does not
isolate I&I issues within each mini-basin, since only the total flow at the
downstream monitors were used to calibrate the flows.
•The RDII parameters used to develop the antecedent soil and
groundwater conditions are very complex, and difficult to accurately
represent. The County performed more extensive research and
evaluation when determining their parameters, the results of w hich
were largely applied to the City’s model. However, the specific
conditions defining how surface water and groundwater enter the
sewage system are extremely complex, and the RDII parameters
assigned to the model will not necessarily be able to accurately
predict future performance, even though they were determined and
estimated using flow monitoring data from a couple of seasons.
City of Renton 2015 Hydraulic Model Update
Summary Report Page 6.6
RECOMMENDATIONS & SUMMARY Chapter 6
•The storm events assigned to the model may or may not provide
representative 20/30-year design flows within the system. The extent
of the rainfall data analyzed by King County was approximately 60
years, and there are no guarantees that the storm flow rankings
correspond to the appropriate storm events over that limited period
of data.
•There were many inconsistencies, gaps, and a lot of “noise” in the
flow monitoring data obtained by the County, and calibration was
anything but an exact science. For some b asins, the data was non-
existent or inadequate to provide accurate calibrations. Without
further flow monitoring efforts, there should be limited confidence in
any of the projected flow rates from non-calibrated basins/mini-
basins.
•The flow monitoring data obtained from the County was collected a
the model basin level, which was at a much broader scale than the
data collected for the 2001 I/I study, which was collected at the mini-
basin level. Without more refined flow data, changes to the
calibration of the model were less precise than the prior effort, and
may have significant impacts on the analysis results.
•The large volume of data compiled from numerous sources and the
extensive estimations, judgment, and assumptions used to create the
model make it a very powerful tool, but common sense and sound
engineering judgment should be applied to all results.
The data provided by model analysis is simply a planning level tool to
determine areas that will need further analysis prior to implementation of
any capital improvements. A dditional analysis and flow-monitoring may be
prudent prior to proceeding with large-scale system improvements in many
parts of the system, as described earlier in this report in more detail. It is
always advisable to apply sound engineering judgment coupled with real-
world perspective to make sure that modeling results make sense and fit the
appropriate conditions being studied. The physical components of
projected “problem areas” such as manhole invert elevations, pipe slopes,
and pipes sizes should be verified to ensure that the model is an accurate
representation of the actual system.

Technical Memorandum 1
RAIN AND FLOW MONITORING & PROJECTIONS
This Technical Memorandum (TM) reviews the existing wastewater flows and presents the
projected wastewater flows for future conditions within the City of Renton’s (City) wastewater
collection system. Existing flows are based on data collected by ADS’s flow monitoring program
(further detail in Attachment A) and the Person Equivalent (PE) developed by Stantec (further
detail in Appendix F).
1.1 Study Area
The collection system area is served, owned and operated by the City. The City's existing
wastewater service area is illustrated in Figure ͭ.ͭ, and mostly follows City limits. The flow
projections for this study only include the portion of the system within the service area identified
in Figure ͭ.ͭ. The extent of the future wastewater service area matches the exiting wastewater
service area. No additional area will be included to the City's existing wastewater service area in
the ͮͬ‐year planning horizon. The Service Area boundary on Figure ͭ.ͭ will be called Study Area
for the remainder of this project.
1.2 Sewer Collection System Flows
Sewer collections systems are intended to convey sanitary flows from customers (dry weather
flow [DWF]), but frequently have additional flows from other sources (wet weather flow [WWF]).
The different flow components are described in the section below and illustrated in Figure ͭ.ͮ.
1.2.1 Dry Weather Flow Components
There are two primary components of DWF.
1.2.1.1 Base Wastewater Flow
The base wastewater flow (BWF) is the sanitary flow generated by routine water usage of the
City’s residential, commercial, and industrial customers. Conveying this flow is the primary
function of the collection system. The flow has a diurnal pattern that varies by customer.
Typically, a residential diurnal pattern has two peaks with the more pronounced peak following
the wake‐up hours of the day, and a less pronounced peak occurring in the evening. Commercial
and industrial patterns, though they vary depending on the type of use, typically have more
consistent higher flow patterns during business hours, and lower flows at night. Furthermore,
the diurnal flow pattern of a weekend may vary from the diurnal flow experienced during a
weekday.

1.2.1.2 Dry Weather Groundwater Infiltration
Dry weather Groundwater Infiltration (GWI) will enter the sewer system when the relative depth
of the groundwater table is higher than the depth of the pipeline and the sanitary sewer pipe
allows infiltration through defects such as cracks, misaligned joints, and broken pipelines. Dry
weather GWI (or base infiltration) cannot easily be separated from BWF by flow measurement
techniques. Therefore dry weather GWI is typically grouped with BWF.
1.2.1.3 Average Dry Weather Flow
Average Dry Weather Flow (ADWF) is the average flow that occurs on a daily basis during the dry
weather season, and is estimated from the DWFs during the monitoring period. Based on the
flow monitoring, the ADWF is approximately ʹ.͵ͳ million gallons per day (mgd). The ADWF
serves as the baseline flow in the hydraulic model. Diurnal (ͮͰ‐hour) patterns are applied to
ADWFs, and cumulatively make up the flows experienced at the outfalls of the collection system.
The diurnal patterns utilized for the City’s collection system basins are developed in Section ͭ.ͯ
and described in detail in the ADS Flow Monitoring Report, Attachment A.
1.2.2 Wet Weather Flow
WWF includes two components:
ͭ. Inflow and Infiltration (I/I): The stormwater I/I response in the sewer system to rainfall is
seen immediately (inflow) or within hours after the storm (infiltration).
ͮ. GWI: Wet weather GWI is not specific to a single rainfall event, but rather to the effects
on the sewer system over the entire wet weather season. The depth of the groundwater
table rising above the pipe invert elevation causes GWI. Sewer pipes within close
proximity to a body of water can be greatly influenced by groundwater effects.
1.2.2.1 Inflow and Infiltration
Inflow is stormwater that enters the sewer system via a direct connection to the system, such as
roof drain and downspout connections, leaky manhole covers, and inappropriate storm drain
connections. Infiltration is stormwater that enters the sewer system by percolating through the
soil and then through defects in pipelines, manholes, and joints. Some of the most common
sources of I/I are shown in Figure ͭ.ͯ. The adverse effects of I/I entering the sewer system is that
it increases both the flow volume and peak flows such that the sewer system could be operating
at or above its capacity, as illustrated in Figure ͭ.Ͱ. If too much I/I enter the sewer system,
sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) could occur.

1.2.2.2 Groundwater Infiltration
GWI, one of the components of I/I, is associated with extraneous water entering the sewer
system through defects in pipes and manholes while the ground is saturated during the wet
weather season. GWI is related to the condition of the sewer pipes, manholes, and groundwater
levels. GWI may occur throughout the year, although rates are typically higher in the late winter
and early spring in the Pacific Northwest.
1.3 Flow Monitoring Program
As part of the Scope of Services for this LRWWMP, Carollo Engineers, Inc. (Carollo) contracted
with ADS to conduct a temporary flow monitoring program within the City's sanitary sewer
collection system. The purposes of the flow monitoring program were to correlate actual
collection system flows to the hydraulic model predicted flows, evaluate the system's capacity,
and estimate basin I/I. The temporary flow monitoring data was collected for a period of
approximately Ͱ months from December ͮͮ, ͮͬͭͳ to April ͮͮ, ͮͬͭʹ. The "ADS Flow Monitoring
Report" prepared by ADS summarizes the flow monitoring program and was submitted to the
City as a stand‐alone report. A copy of the report is included in Attachment A.
1.3.1 Program Description
1.3.1.1 Flow Monitoring Sites and Tributary Areas
Eighteen (ͭʹ) sewer basins were monitored during the flow monitoring period. The meter sites
were selected to best isolate and model the critical areas and subareas within the sewer system.
The ͭʹ flow monitoring locations, as well as the area tributary to each site, are shown on
Figure ͭ.ͱ. Table ͭ.ͭ lists the flow monitoring locations and the diameters for the sewers where
the meters were installed. Figure ͭ.Ͳ provides a schematic illustrating the flow monitoring
locations to help understand how the basins connect. In the figure the color of the flow meter
represents the accuracy level of the data, blue meters have high quality data while green meters
moderate quality data that was considered acceptable for model calibration. The model inflows
from outside of the City’s collection system are indicated by the orange boxes.

1.3.1.2 Flow Monitoring Installation and Flow Calculation
ADS installed eighteen ADS Triton+TM Wireless Open Channel Flow Monitors. These meters use
a pressure transducer to collect depth readings and ultrasonic Doppler sensors on the probe to
determine the average fluid velocity. The flow meters used are non‐contact meters that use
radar to measure velocity and down‐looking ultrasonic sensors to measure depth. ADS selected
the optimal type of flow meter to use on a site‐to‐site basis based on the hydraulic
characteristics at each site, as well as other factors.
ADS conducted an analysis of the data retrieved from each flow meter, and made adjustments
as needed for calibration based on the field measurements. The flow at each meter was then
calculated at ͭͱ‐minute intervals based on the continuity equation:
Q = V x A
where,
Q = Pipeline flow rate, cfs
V = Average velocity, ft/s
A = Cross sectional flow area, ftͮ

1.3.1.3 Rain Gauges
One rain gauge was installed by ADS to capture rainfall that occurred throughout the flow
monitoring program.
1.3.2 Flow Monitoring Results
This section summarizes the results of the flow monitoring program, including DWF data, rainfall
data, and WWF data. Data collected from flow meters MHͬͱͯͳ and MHͭͯͲͬ is presented
throughout this TM as an example of the type of data and the results from the flow monitoring
program. Refer to Attachment A for additional data summaries and other information
associated with the remaining meter sites.
1.3.2.1 Dry Weather Flow Data
During the flow monitoring period, depth and velocity data were collected at each meter at
ͭͱ‐minute intervals. Carollo aggregated the ͭͱ‐minute data to hourly data for use in the
hydraulic model.
ADWF was developed using the driest days from the flow monitoring period defined based on
the following set of minimum criteria:
Less than ͬ.ͭ in of rain in the previous day.
Less than ͬ.Ͱ in of rain in the previous ͯ days.
Less than ͭ.ͬ in of rain in the previous ͱ days.
Selected days must exhibit average‐day flows within ʹͱ percent to ͭͭͱ percent of the
average‐day flows of remaining dry days.
In addition, those dry days that exhibited unusual flow patterns were not used to
generate net dry day flow values for a basin.
Characteristic dry weather ͮͰ‐hour diurnal flow patterns for each site were developed based on
the hourly data. The hourly flow data were used to calibrate the hydraulic model for the
observed ADWFs during the flow monitoring period.
Typically, a diurnal pattern with mostly residential uses has two peaks with the more pronounced
peak following the wake‐up hours of the day, and a less pronounced peak occurring in the
evening. Commercial and industrial oriented‐patterns, though they vary depending on the type
of use, typically have more consistent higher flow patterns during business hours, and lower
flows at night. Hourly patterns for weekday and weekend flows vary and were separated to
better understand ADWF.
In addition, Carollo estimated the average weekday and weekend dry weather levels and
velocities at each site from the data provided by ADS, which are used in the ADWF calibration.
Figure ͭ.ͳ illustrates a typical variation of weekday and weekend flow in the City, which is based
on the data collection from MHͬͱͯͳ. Similar graphics associated with the remaining sites are
included in Attachment A. Table ͭ.ͮ summarizes the ADWFs at each meter, and the different
components of ADWF at each meter.

1.3.2.2 Rainfall Data
An important part of the study is the collection and analysis of rainfall data. One tipping bucket
type rain gauge was temporarily set up for this LRWWMP. Four significant rainfall events
occurred during the course of the flow monitoring period, as well as a few other relatively minor
events. The rainfall data recorded over the course of the flow monitoring program is illustrated in
Figure ͭ.ʹ. Figure ͭ.͵ illustrates the total accumulation of rainfall over the course of the flow
monitoring period for the ADS tipping bucket type rain gauge. Table ͭ.ͯ summarizes the total
rainfall recorded at the ADS rain gauge during the main rainfall event, as well as over the entire
flow monitoring period.

The storms presented in Table ͭ.ͯ, correspond to the most significant rainfall events that were
then used for model calibration. Additional storms did provide data in terms of the collection
system’s I/I response to WWF events, and is appropriate for I/I analysis and model calibration
purposes.
1.3.2.3 Wet Weather Flow Data
The flow monitoring data were also evaluated to determine how the collection system responds
to wet weather events. As mentioned above, the flow monitoring program captured three main
rainfall events. The rainfall event that occurred on April ͭͱ, ͮͬͭʹ was associated with the largest
I/I response during the flow monitoring period, and is the most appropriate to be used for wet
weather flow analysis.
Figure ͭ.ͭͬ shows an example of the wet weather response at MHͭͯͲͬ during the April ͮͬͭʹ
rainfall event. This figure also illustrates the volume of I/I that entered the system from the
collection system upstream of MHͭͯͲͬ. The light grey line is the base sanitary flow while the
dark blue line is the measured flow from the flow monitoring period. As can be seen in the figure,
discernible amounts of I/I do enter the system during wet weather events. Similar graphs were
generated for the remaining monitoring sites and can be found in Attachment B, as well as
capacity indicators in the collection system during the flow monitoring period, such as the depth
vs diameter (d/D) ratio.

1.3.3 Dry Weather Flow Projections
Developing an accurate estimate of the future quantity of wastewater generated at build‐out of
the collection system is an important step in maintaining and sizing sewer system facilities, for
both existing conditions and future scenarios.
GWI can be estimated for a sewer system by comparing ADWF and WWF at the various flow
monitoring locations. To estimate ADWF for more specific areas, such as individual wastewater
basins, ADWFs are typically estimated based on the PE’s contributing to flows and flow factors
developed for each land use type. These values were considered unchanged and PE’s were taken
from Stantec’s ͮͬͭͲ Model Update Report, Appendix F. This method is developed based on the
assumption that areas with similar land uses, such as low density residential parcels, produce
equivalent quantities of wastewater flow. System‐wide flows can be compared to known flows
at flow monitors, or at the treatment plant to verify accuracy. This method of estimating GWI is
an industry standard for planning and provides sufficiently accurate data for planning purposes.
1.3.3.1 Existing Average Dry Weather Flows and Existing Flow Factors
This section presents the existing flow data available for this LRWWMP. Overall ADWF, BWP,
and GWI were estimated using data from the Flow Monitoring Program for each of the eighteen
flow monitoring basins. After reviewing the flow monitoring data, BWP and BI were estimated
for each flow monitoring basin and were presented in Section ͭ.ͯ.ͮ.ͯ in Table ͭ.ͯ.
ADWFs were developed for each of the eighteen flow meters. Table ͭ.Ͱ lists the flow factors and
ADWF developed, while Figure ͭ.ͳ illustrates a typical variation of weekday and weekend flow in
the system, which is based on the data collection from Meter MHͬͱͯͳ. Similar graphs for each

1.3.3.2 Projected Dry Weather Flows
Developing an accurate estimate of the future quantity of wastewater generated at build‐out of
the collection system is an important step in maintaining and sizing sewer system facilities, for
both existing conditions and future scenarios. GWI can be estimated for a sewer by comparing
ADWF and WWF at the various flow monitoring locations. To estimate ADWF for more specific
areas, such as individual wastewater basins, ADWFs are typically estimated based on the PE
contributing to flows and flow factors developed for each land use type.
The future build‐out ADWFs were developed by projecting the planning GWI to the build‐out
planning year land uses. The PE’s for each catchment were developed for existing and buildout
conditions and a constant flow factor was used to relate this to ADWF Additional information
can be found in Chapter Ͱ of the LRWWMP and Attachment F – Stantec’s Model Update Report.

1.3.4 Wet Weather Flow Projections
1.3.4.1 Peak Wet Weather Flows and Design Storms
Peak wet weather flows (PWWF) in a wastewater collection system are caused by rainfall
dependent I/I. Peak hour flows can result in flows more than ten times the GWI, causing utilities
to construct high‐capacity infrastructure to convey and treat these extraneous flows.
Existing and projected PWWFs are predicted using the hydraulic model and design storm used
for this LRWWMP. This analysis uses four separate multi‐day, ͮͬ‐ͯͬ year recurrence design
storms, illustrated in Figure ͭ.ͭͭ. These storms were identified in the ͮͬͭͮ King County (KC) I/I
Study and correspond to the recurrence interval within historical KC rainfall. To represent typical
winter Pacific Northwest antecedent conditions, typical rainfall was added from historical data
prior to the design storm in the hydraulic model. Further detail on the development of the design
storm can be found in Appendix H, TM ͮ.
Figure ͭ.ͭͭ LRWWMP Design Storms
1.3.4.2 Future PWWF Assumptions
To predict future PWWF, I/I in the future service area must be defined. A direct inflow technique
is used. Instead of simulating I/I using an I/I unit hydrograph, I/I is simulated by assuming a
constant I/I flow factor per acre of new development. I/I flow factors can range from ͭ,ͬͬͬ to
over ͭͬ,ͬͬͬ gallons per day per acre (gpd/ac) in the northwest. An I/I Flow Factor of ͭ,ͱͬͬ gpd/ac
was selected for estimating I/I in areas of new development to reflect improved construction
methods and integrity of new materials. Additionally, this value also meets the Department of
Environmental Quality (DEQ) recommendation.

Methodology
Introduction
Background
Carollo Engineers entered into agreement with ADS Environmental Services to conduct flow monitoring at (18) eighteen metering points and (1) rain gauge located in the City of Renton, WA. The study was contracted for a four month monitoring period. The objective of this study was to measure depth, velocity, and quantify flows and identify capacity restrictions. A basin map and drawings for the pump stations are available in the appendix.
Project Scope
The scope of this study involved using temporary flow monitors to quantify wastewater flow at the designated locations. Specifically, the study included the following key components.
Investigate the proposed flow-monitoring sites for adequate hydraulic conditions
Flow monitor installations
Flow monitor confirmations and data collections
Flow data analysis
I/I Analysis
Equipment installation was accomplished starting in December 22, 2017. The monitoring period was completed on April 22, 2018.
Equipment and Methodology
Flow Quantification Methods
There are two main equations used to measure open channel flow: the Continuity Equation and the Manning Equation. The Continuity Equation, which is considered the most accurate, can be used if both depth of flow and velocity are available. In cases where velocity measurements are not available or not practical to obtain, the Manning Equation can be used to estimate velocity from the depth data based on certain physical characteristics of the pipe (i.e. the slope and roughness of the pipe being measured). However, the Manning equation assumes uniform, steady flow hydraulic conditions with non-varying roughness, which are typically invalid assumptions in most sanitary sewers. The Continuity Equation was used exclusively for this study.
Continuity Equation
The Continuity Equation states that the flow quantity (Q) is equal to the wetted cross-sectional area (A) multiplied by the average velocity (V) of the flow.
Q = A * V
This equation is applicable in a variety of conditions including backwater, surcharge, and reverse flow. Most modern flow monitoring equipment, including the ADS Models, measure both depth and velocity and therefore use the Continuity Equation to calculate flow quantities.
Flow Monitoring Equipment
The ADS Triton+ monitor was selected for this project. This flow monitor is an area velocity flow monitor that uses both the Continuity and Manning's equations to measure flow.
The ADS Triton+ monitor consists of data acquisition sensors and a battery-powered microcomputer. The microcomputer includes a processor unit, data storage, and an on-board clock to control and synchronize the sensor recordings. The monitor was programmed to acquire and store depth of flow and velocity readings at 1-minute intervals.
The Triton+ monitor features cross-checking using multiple technologies in each sensor for continuous running of comparisons and tolerances. The sensor option used for this project was the peak combo sensor.
ThePeakComboSensor installed at the bottom of the pipe includes three types of data acquisition technologies. The up looking ultrasonic depth uses sound waves from two independent transceivers to measure the distance from the sensor upward toward the flow surface; applying the speed of sound in the water and the temperature measured by sensor to calculate depth. The pressure depth is calculated by using a piezo-resistive crystal to determine the difference between hydrostatic and atmospheric pressure. The pressure sensor is temperature compensated and vented to the atmosphere through a desiccant filled breather tube. To obtain peak velocity, the sensor sends an ultrasonic signal at an angle upward through the widest cross-section of the oncoming flow. The signal is reflected by suspended particles, air bubbles, or organic matter with a frequency shift proportional to the velocity of the reflecting objects. The reflected signal is received by the sensor and processed using digital spectrum analysis to determine the peak flow velocity.
Installation
Installation of flow monitoring equipment typically proceeds in four steps. First, the site is investigated for safety and to determine physical and hydraulic suitability for the flow monitoring equipment. Second, the equipment is physically installed at the selected location. Third, the monitor is tested to assure proper operation of the velocity and depth of flow sensors and verify that the monitor clock is operational and synchronized to the master computer clock. Fourth, the depth and velocity sensors are confirmed and line confirmations are performed. A typical flow monitor installation is shown in Figure 1.
The installations depicted in Figure 1 are typical for circular or oval pipes up to approximately 104-inches in diameter or height. In installations into pipes 42-inches or less in diameter, combo sensors are mounted on an expandable stainless steel ring and installed one to two pipe diameters upstream of the pipe/manhole connection in the incoming sewer pipe. This reduces the effects of turbulence and backwater caused by the connection. In pipes larger than 42 inches in diameter, a special installation is made using two sections of the ring installed one to two feet upstream of the pipe/manhole connection; one bolted to the crown of the pipe for the surface combo sensor and the other bolted to the bottom of the pipe (bolts are usually placed just above the water line) to hold the peak combo sensor.

Large Pipe ( > 42" Diameter) Small Pipe ( 8" to 42" Diameter)
Data Collection, Confirmation, and Quality Assurance
During the monitoring period data collects from the meters were done remotely via wireless connection. Quality assurance taken to assure the integrity of the data collected included:
Measure Power Supply: The monitor is powered by a dry cell battery pack. Power levels are recorded and battery packs replaced, if necessary. A separate battery provides back-up power to memory, which allows the primary battery to be replaced without the loss of data.
Perform Pipe Line Confirmations and Confirm Depth and Velocity: Once equipment and sensor installation is accomplished, a member of the field crew descends into the manhole to perform a field measurement of flow rate, depth and
velocity to confirm they are in agreement with the monitor. Since the ADS V-3 velocity sensor measures peak velocity in the wetted cross-sectional area of flow, velocity profiles are also taken to develop a relationship between peak and average velocity in lines that meet the hydraulic criteria.
Measure Silt Level: During site confirmation, a member of the field crew descends into the manhole and measures and records the depth of silt at the bottom of the pipe. This data is used to compute the true area of flow.
Confirm Monitor Synchronization: The field crew and data analyst checks the flow monitor's clock for accuracy.
Upload and Review Data: Data collected by the monitor is uploaded and reviewed for comparison with previous data. All readings are checked for consistency and screened for deviations in the flow patterns, which may indicate system anomalies or equipment failure.
Data Analysis and Presentation
Data Analysis
A flow monitor is typically programmed to collect data at either 15-minute or 5-minute intervals throughout the monitoring period. The monitor stores raw data consisting of (1) the updepth (distance from sensor to top of flow) for each active ultrasonic depth sensor, (2) the peak velocity and (3) the pressure depth. The data is imported into ADS's proprietary software and is examined by a data analyst to verify its integrity. The data analyst also reviews the daily field reports and site visit records to identify conditions that would affect the collected data.
Velocity profiles and the line confirmation data developed by the field personnel are reviewed by the data analyst to identify inconsistencies and verify data integrity. Velocity profiles are reviewed and an average to peak velocity ratio is calculated for the site. This ratio is used in converting the peak velocity measured by the sensor to the average velocity used in the Continuity equation. The data analyst selects which depth sensor entity will be used to calculate the final depth information. Silt levels present at each site visit are reviewed and representative silt levels established.
Occasionally the velocity sensor's performance may be compromised resulting in invalid readings sporadically during the monitoring period. This is generally caused by excessive debris (silt) blocking the sensor's crystals, shallow flows (~< 2") that may drop below the top of the sensor or very clear flows lacking the particles needed to measure rate. In order to use the Continuity equation to quantify flow during during such brief (in respect to overall study duration) periods of velocity sensor "fouling", a Sr. Analyst and/or Engineer will use the site's historical pipe curve (depth vs. velocity) data along with valid field confirmations to reconstitute and replace the false velocity recordings with expected velocity readings for a given historical depth along the curve.
Selections for the above parameters can be constant or can change during the monitoring period. While the data analysis process is described in a linear manner, it often requires an iterative approach to accurately complete.
