S hrrm Waror and Wetland Managoment Plan Novemher 14, 1985 Three are some storm sewer actions that n.�ed cleaninq more often because more 4and is deposited in these pipes. The followinq st"rm sewer section'; nood cloaninq once ovary year: a) The storm sewer that starts at 22.71 County Road 11-2 and dischantcs into Lambert Park. h) The storm sever that starts A the intersection of Eastwood Road and Woodcrest Drive and discharges into Wooderest Park. c) The storm sewer that .Trains the areas north of Sherwood Road and west of Noudlawn Drive. When the storm sewer improvement.; arm• completed, deten- tion ponds and equipment will need periodic cleaning. Some storm sewers have tree roots growing through the pipe joints. Staff will inspect the larger pipes and televise the smaller pipes to determine if the roots should he sprayed as we do for sanitary sewers so that the pipe's ability to carry storm water will be maxi- mized. This work will bo coordinated with the Storm Sewer Improvement Program and the Sanitary Sewer Maintenance Program. 2. Storm Sewer Im ov.•m.•nt a) Non -Structural Improvements Juhn Johnson's Storm Water Management Plan will work only if people do not increase the quantity of water erterinq the storm sewers. There are two ways that we can increase storm water quantity. First, ground water can now he used to heat and cool buildings. For heatino or coolinq, ground water is pumped thrnunh a heat exchanger and discharged into the ground where it flows over land until it enters a storm sewer. Building owners normally discharge ground water into the storm sewer because discharging the water into a sanitary sewer is not allowed and dtsr,harginq water back into the ground (qround water recharge) is ton expensive. The City should prohibit the discharge of ground water fused for heating and cooling buildings) into the storm sewer system because the storm ,ewer system does not have adequate capacity. - 5 -
