4. Storm Basins <br />Background: <br />The current RT-DSS integrates the Kensington Storm Basins as a critical storage point in the <br />system during wet weather events. Given they end up discharging into the combined system, it is <br />an important asset that holds back flows to the greatest possible extent during storm conditions <br />to not overwhelm the interceptor. For the combined system, there are other areas that might be <br />able to expand the storage available to the system during storms. <br />Objective: <br />Identify and scope out storm storage basins which could be integrated into the RT-DSS to provide <br />additional carrying capacity. <br />Tasks: <br />A. Identify and map out existing storage basins within the collections system area. <br />B. Perform site visits to basins to evaluate suitability for control. <br />C. Collect available documentation on storage facilities <br />D. Review hydraulic models and perform modeling to determine basin performance during <br />wet weather events, reevaluating as necessary. <br />Deliverables: <br />Presentation of work performed, including a prioritized list of storm basins which will benefit <br />most from addition of controls within the watershed along with hydraulic outcomes. <br />emnet 121 S.
