Major SRWTP Spills
Description
A major SRWTP spill occurs when wastewater that is not fully treated leaves the treatment plant property, gets into a stream or river, endangers public health and/or creates a nuisance.
Target
A numeric target has not been set at this time. SRCSD is collecting data and will establish a target in the future.
Purpose
Our performance in Major SRWTP Spills reflects proper capacity, operation and maintenance of facilities at the wastewater treatment plant.
Critical Impacts
Critical work activities that influence our performance on this service level include planning for adequate system capacity; designing reliable facilities; maintaining facilities to assure that they are in good operating condition; training staff to assure that good operational practices are followed; and implementing methods to detect and respond to spills quickly. Even if facilities are managed properly, spills can still occur because of extreme or unusual operating conditions that were not anticipated.
2010 Performance
There were no major SRWTP spills in 2010.
