PROJ. NO. 2(v �7
In response to your request for information pertaining to collection system
capacity to accept wastewater from the above referenced -site, we offer the
following.
Upon completion and acceptance of all necessary non-public sewer laterals and
appurtenances, Utilities agrees to accept 90,000gpd for the new Uptown Arena
project. Due to the layout of the project site the flow will be discharged into
CMU's collection system at two points: 1,500gpm will discharge to the 5th Street
collection system, and 350gpm will be pumped from a lower level of the arena to
a discharge location within Trade Street. Acceptance of this flow is based on an
understanding, that the- flows from this project will not exceed the instantaneous
flaw rates discussed above and that improvements to the gravity sewer along 5th
and.6th Streets have been completed.
Wastewater from the proposed site will he conveyed to, and treated at the Sugar
Creek Wastewater Treatment Facility. Final acceptance is contingent upon
issuance of a Discharge Permit from the appropriate local, State, or Federal
agency. Connection to Utilities system is on a first -come, first -served basis, as
remaining capacity for future projects cannot be guaranteed.
If you have any questions; please contact our office at -( r u4 ) 399-2221. '
