The planning area included in the Facility Plan encompasses the Cities fN of Iowa City and University Heights and outlying areas which are proposed for development in the land use plan prepared by the Iowa City Department of Community Development. The planning area is located in southeast Iowa about 55 miles west of the Mississippi River. The City of Coralville, an adjoining community, is not included in the planning L� area. A regional approach has been used in developing alternatives 1 except that Coralville has been excluded from consideration since it has its own sewerage system. 2. The population of the planning area has been estimated as follows: 1 Year Population F{ 1976 49,400 ^'I 2000 60,100 2030 70,900 Project year 2000 population, along with future land use distribution, is used as a basis for the design of the water pollution control I facilities. The population estimate for the year 2030 is used as a j basis for the design of major sewers. 3. Most of the planning area is served by the Iowa City water pollution e control plant. The water pollution control plant, a trickling filter - separate sludge digestion type plant, is designed for an average flow of eight million gallons per day (mgd) and a peak flow of 16 mgd. The i plant is designed to treat 11,000 pounds of BODS and 13,000 pounds of suspended solids per day. The existing plant is not in compliance and cannot comply with either the NPDES permit or IDEQ operation permit compliance schedules for effluent limitations effective July 1, 1979. The remainder of the planning area is served by four lagoons and septic tanks. The lagoons have limited storage capacity. Two of the i lagoons are overloaded. The existing plant has been encroached upon by development; primarily { commercial and industrial. There is no space available to enlarge the t existing facilities at the present site.

Alternatives, all based upon a regional approach, discussed in this report, include: Alternative I - No -Action Plan Alternative II - Treatment and Discharge - Continued use of existing plant with new tertiary facilities Alternative III - Treatment and Discharge - Abandonment of all existing treatment facilities and construction of a new tertiary plant Alternative IV - Treatment and Reuse i Alternative V - Treatment and Land Application 5. The evaluation of alternatives was based on land use considerations, �* analyses of costs and present worths, environmental impacts and input " I h from City officials and citizens' committees and groups. 6. Alternative III is recommended for implementation. This plan includes i construction of a new 13 mgd tertiary treatment plant about two miles south of the existing water pollution control plant. The existing plant and lagoons will be abandoned. i 7. Planning and design of major sewers in this report has been limited to the corridor sewer system which serves the northwest part of the planning area. The corridor sewer system has been designated as the first priority in developing an adequate sewer system to serve the planning area. The design of major relief sewers to serve the remaining area will be included in the Facility Plan, Section 2 report t upon completion of the sewer system evaluation survey studies in I progress. 1 B. The cost of the new water pollution control plant is estimated at i $24,200,000 and the corridor sewer system at $3,980,000. 9. Total project costs, including the construction of the new water pollution control plant, corridor sewer system, cost-effective rehabilitation of the existing system and the construction of major relief sewers (which will be determined upon completion of the sewer system evaluation studies), are estimated at $40,000,000. The local share of the project cost is estimated at $8,800,000, or 22% of the total project cost. Federal grants of 75% and state grants of 5% are anticipated for financing eligible costs. ii IU CROFILMFD BY .� JORM MICR+LAB CFMR RAPIPC • DFS MOVIES hi(CROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS AND ULS MUihIL�>,,U— r- 10. The project is tentatively recommended to be financed by general obligation bonds to be retired from an increase in sewer revenue rates. It is estimated that sewer rates will increase from $0.27 per 100 cubic feet to about $0.90 per 100 cubic feet. This constitutes an increase to about 3.33 times the existing rate. 11. It is recommended that the City Council of Iowa City authorize submission of this report to IDEQ and EPA for their review and concurrence and authorization to proceed with an application for a Step 2 federal grant to fund the preparation of plans and specifications for the new water pollution control plant and a Step 3 federal grant for the construction of the corridor sewer system. Summary of Costs In accordance with requirements of EPA, as outlined in EPA "Program Guidance Memorandum No. 55 - Subject: Format for Reporting Costs of Planned Treatment Works in Step 1 Facilities Plans," dated July 25, 1975. A schedule showing a summary of costs of planned treatment works is included herewith. 9'3 All iii Ice 0 ----.. I 14]CRorILIIED BY JORM MICR+L1 1 CEDAR RAPIDS • DCS MDI I FJ i All iii Ice 0 ----..

Dietz, City Engineer RE: Ordinance amending composition osewage waste at the point of discharge. At the public hearing on July 25, several questions were raised by Council members concerning the advisability of the ordinance change. Attached are a couple of memos from myself and from Dick Plastino as well as a letter from Veenstra and Kimml addressed to myself concerning these matters. There are three changes being proposed in the ordinance and they are: 1. Change the range of pH from an average of 5.5 to 7.5 (with temporary variations from 4.5 to 10.0) to a range of 6.0 to 10.5; 2. Change the organic oil and grease content from 100 p.p.m. to 300 p.p.m., while reducing petroleum derivatives from 100 p.p.m. to 25 p.p.m.; and 3. Adding the phrase in parentheses "(if exceeded the City may apply a cost surcharge)" immediately behind the phrase "or exceeding the daily average of 500 p.p.m." This will allow the daily average of insoluble solids to exceed 500 p.p.m. but provides a mechanism in the future for charging any source for a discharge above this figure. I have discussed these three aspects in some detail with the Environmental Protection Agency and the Iowa Dept. of Environmental Quality and have reconfirmed the fact that they do not have specific standards on the components of waste discharge. Although they may have their own engineering opinion regarding composition of waste, they do not enforce these aspects. Their primary concern deals with what is eventually discharged to the receiving waters, i.e., the Iowa River. In my conversations with represen- tatives of the regulatory agencies, I find that they are quite willing to leave these decisions to the local governmental body as long as the end result meets their needs. The primary area of discussion centered on grease and fat content in the sewage and they both felt that an upper limit of 300 p.p.m. would not be detrimental to any system. These parameter changes were in fact precipitated by requests from two industries - the planned Oscar Mayer facility and Proctor and Gamble. Ile are not however recommending these changes merely to accommodate these facilities. Our ordinance was written quite some time ago which was probably based on average information generated from other parts of the country and not meant to deal specifically with Iowa City. Perhaps, if Iowa City were a mecca of heavy industry, it might be advisable to spend a great deal of time and effort devising a ver comprehensive set of parameters for sewage waste. However, Iowa City is in fact predominantly yy_ :41CROFIL14ED BY ri DORM MICR+LAB MAP PANDS flEs I401NE.S dies -y r4laukoFILMLU BY JORM Id1CROLAB ds! LLUAR IWIUS AIIU jL'I !U-7ic-1 a residential community with just a very of becoming heavily industrialized. This the recent adoption of the land use plan left to deal with industrial contribution small portion of the total waste load to few industries with no perceptions fact has been further defined in for the City. 'Therefore, we are a of waste loads that are a relatively our sanitary facilities. I would first like to address the item of phi. High or low PH levels can have two negative impacts on our sewer system. First of all, the effect on the receiving sewers must be considered. A very high or very low pH can cause a corroding effect on sewer materials and therefore must be limited. The levels being recommended in this ordinance change are considered by staff and our consultant to be acceptable to discharge into our piping system (see page 2 of the Veenstra and Kimm letter). The other concern for our system regarding PH deals with its effect on the treatment plant itself. This can only be of concern if the waste composition coming into the plant has an extreme PH. Of the existing or proposed industries in town, only Oscar Mayer would produce a waste that would approach the high side of this pil range. The planned Oscar Mayer contribution is approximately 3% of the design flow for the new waste water facilities. The point being, that by the time the higher plh values from any one particular industry reach the treatment plant, it has been diluted down to a more than safe level for either our existing or our proposed treatment facility. The wording change surrounding the suspended solids does not in effect change anything that's happening in our system today. The limit of 500 p.p.m. for the average suspended solid load from any one industry will continue but it will not be illegal for those who have a higher than 500 p.p.m. average to continue to be connected to our sewer system. The wording change providing that a cost surcharge would be borne by any industry exceeding the 500 p.p.m. is an anticipation of what will be recommended with a new sewer use ordinance as our facility plan progresses. Frankly, the only industry that would he effected by this change is Proctor and Gaanble and they have been in excess of this provision of our ordinance probably since they began their operation. This specific provision provides an .interim measure to make their operation legal until a comprehensive ordinance change is in effect. The parameter dealing with grease and oil is perhaps the most controversial aspect of this change to our sewer ordinance. The reduction in petroleum derivative grease and oils from 100 p.p.m. to 25 p.p.m. I don't perceive as being controversial. The reason for making the distinction is based on compatibility. The organic grease and oils are similar to residential waste which comprises the majority of our waste load to the treatment plant. The petroleum based products are not typically in our wastes to any great extent. Therefore the organisms in the treatment process would find the waste incompatible, which could disrupt the balance in the plant and cause serious problems. The balance of the discussion on grease and oils is limited to the organic variety. Again, the regulatory agencies do not have any particular problems with what we propose as being 300 p.p.m. I have taken the opportunity to call several cities in Iowa including Cedar Rapids, Davenport, Sioux City, and Waterloo. The range on grease and oil is dramatic. Cedar Rapids for instance has no upper limit, while Davenport has a maximum of 200 p.p.m. I was unable to get an answer from Waterloo and I found that Sioux City allows for no Lipper limit .in grease and oil but they do surcharge those that exceed 100 p.p.m. It is staff opinion as well as our consultant's opinion that the proposed 300 p.p.m. will not be detrimental to our treatment facilities and system. For your information, while I discussed waste water parameters with the cities IdlcROMMEo BY JORM MICR+LAB rrnnrt aurins • Pa 'aomrs 1410WHLMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS AND uLS MUIiiL�, 'JI -11 mentioned above, I did ask about pll levels and suspended solids. I found that some cities do not have a lower limit on pll and other cities do not have an tipper limit on pll. Other cities did not have a limit on suspended solids, while some cities had a limit of 250 to 300 p.p.m. and applied a surcharge for a discharge at a higher level. It is staff opinion and the consultant's opinion that there will be no adverse effects from the changes that are being reconunended to this ordinance. Further- more, we should not anticipate an increased pollution load to the river because of these changes. The fact is, during certain times of the year and in heavy rains, our existing treatment plant cannot meet the Federal and State require- ments for discharge to the river. However, these ordinance changes will not affect this condition to any great extent. The waste load parameters for the existing industry in town and the proposed Oscar Mayer plant are a known quantity and are included in the facility plan, section 1 which you have reviewed. These conditions will be designed for in the new plant. Along with the increases in sewer use rates which were discussed at our meeting with Veenstra and Kimm, we will also have to rewrite this entire section of the sewer ordinance. The parameters discussed in this ordinance change as well as the remaining pollutants will be addressed on a more thorough basis at that time. In the interim, it is recommended that these changes be made to our ordinance so that the industries that we now have in Iowa City as well as those proposed in the immediate future can comply with what we feel to be reasonable standards.

We recently asked the City's consultant to analyze their request to insure that there would be no deleterious effects to our treatment process. Attached is a copy of that letter. The second and third paragraphs on page 2 give our consultant's opinion on oil and grease content and page 3 discusses pll level. City staff is extremely concerned about instituting any changes in our ordinance over the short term which would result in long term damage or treatment difficulties at our sewage treatment plant. We believe, as our consultant does, that the changes proposed are reasonable standards and they will not have any effect on our treatment process. We are not aware of the origin of the original ordinance and we are not able to comment on why the standards were set so restrictive initially. Harry Boren, the Pollution Control Superintendent, and myself will be present at the ,lune 12 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting to answer any further questions on this. If Planning and Zoning concurs with the change, we are hopeful the Commission will set the public hearing and send on a recommendation to Council. cc: Neal Berlin Gene Dietz Harry Boren MICROFILMED BY i JORM MICR+LA9 CFOAR RAPInS • DES MOINES h11CRUFIUi ED BY JORM MICROLAB City of Iowa City Civic Center 410 Washington Street Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Attn: Mr. Eugene A.

The oil and grease test has encompased the use of three different extraction agents in the last ton years. The exact meaning of oil and grease analysis is not well understood and it is doubtful that oil and grease data is comparable for different extracting agents. r An upper limit of 300 mg/1 should be satisfactory protection for the City's sewerage system. The Des Moines Industrial Waste Ordinance establishes a pEj range of 5.5 to 9.5 where there are free acids and al?:alis associated with water or wastes having corrosive propert:e:;. The Eater Pollution Control Federation, manual of Practice No. 3 - Regulation of Sewer use, includes the followin.l regarding pH: "A pH of about 4.5 or 5 or below will corode concrete P11 sewers, cement base structures, and, of course, metal P ► pipes. Therefore, wastes of low p!I must be prohibited. The highest pH values at the other end of the scale, on the other hand, are not corrosive to pipes. Therefore, full advantage can be taken of capabilities to bring p1l down to acceptable levels for discharge by dilution with other wastewaters or neutralization with less alkaline wastes from some other source in the system.

I We called Bayne Farrand at 1DEQ about completing the Trea.nent Agreement Major Industry form. Plaync advises this should be completed for the maximum expected wasto load from the industry. IDEQ will limit the industry to the amount shown unless a new form is submitted and approval riven for increasing the load at a later date. IDEQ wants any deslun to be based on maximum waste discharges. 2. Outfall Sewer Construction - Construction of 150 feet o: tiro proposed outfall sewer across Iiigihway 6 with the construction of Gilbert Street would cost about $30,000, which will be 100% local cost. Jacking the pipe under after Gilbert Street was finished would cost the City an estimated $20,000 (local share only) four years from now. The economics favor the City waiting until grant funds are available. 3. NPDES Time _Extension - lie called Wayne Farrand about a time extension for the City to get its required Ratcr Pollution Control Facilities completed. Wayne sees no need to apply for an extension at this time because they know where the City is in relation to completing required fncilitics. The,.. may later decide to set up a new tine schedule and if ... do, they will contact us about it. Wayne also advised that the reporting and other requirements in the permit should be complied with.

Dietz, City Engineer RE: proposed Amendments of Sewage Waste Ordinance Don, as I discussed with you earlier today, I am formally requesting that a slight revision be made to the proposed ordinance amendment concerning sewage waste. In a meeting on this date with Proctor and Gamble, it came to my attention that similar to the Oscar Mayer Company, there is a certain aspect of the existing ordinance which they would be unable to meet. The existing ordinance provides that any insoluble substance shall not exceed a daily average of 500 parts per million (p.p.m.). In point of fact, Proctor and Gamble discharges a waste that has averaged so far in 1978,548 p.p.m. Although this is not a problem for our treatment facilities, they do not in fact comply with the ordinance as it reads. The changes I would recommend would not change the figures contained in the ordinance but would add the following words contained within parentheses immediately behind 500 p.p.m. "(If exceeded the City may apply a cost surcharge)". Essentially, without changing the numbers, this revision will allow Proctor and Gamble (or anyone for that matter) to exceed the 500 p.p.m. standard but will pave the way for the City to add a extra charge to that particular industry to recover the cost due to the extra amount of solids in the waste. This in fact will be the way the ultiwate ordinance will be worded but we will at that time set up a schedule of the prices to be charged when these figures are exceeded. In the interim, no extra cost will be levied against Proctor and Gamble but will allow them to continue their operation without violating a City ordinance. I realize that we have been trying to piece this ordinance together to make it a workable situation. However, it would not seem appropriate at this time to write a completely comprehensive ordinance that would deal with all the situations necessary to comply with Federal Regulations. I therefore recommend that this change be made to the proposed amendment. �(l� /►L v J/ 141CROFIU4FD at JORM MICR+LAB (FDM PAPInq, .

IOWA 577AG August 7, 1978 Mr. E. A. Dietz City Engineer City of Iowa City 410 E. Washington Iowa City, IA 52240 Dear Mr. Dietz: We have reviewed the Iowa City, Iowa Sanitary Sewage System Facility Plan 1978, dated June 19, and wish to convey our concern with the capacity being provided in the facilities for future industrial growth. The authors state that "as a general guide, EPA recommends that the waste load allowance, eligible for grant funding, from future unfore- seen industries be limited to 10% of the total treatment works design capacity or 10% of the total industrial load (existing plus documented future) whichever is lesser". We believe the particular EPA employees your consultant has dealt with have indicated a policy which is entirely too restrictive and will lead to serious problems of inadequate capacity in a few years. The, federal regulations on construction grants do not contain such language, nor does the law, however, it is generally known that EPA is trying to avoid communities deliberately constructing unused capacity from grant funds in order to attract industrial growth. The EPA is apparently attempting to limit grant fund use. We do not believe the national policy is as severe as the 10%. The problem is illustrated by the following comparison. The population increase for the Iowa City Plant expected from 1978-2000 (according to the report) is 10,700; this constitutes a growth of about 20% from the 1976 population of 49,400. In contrast, the report speaks to allowing only a 10% industrial use increase. Where is the production for the population increases to come from? The national production has to actually increase at a greater rate than the population if improved living standards for the impoverished are to be met. The gross national product average growth rate in recent years indicates at least a doubling of industrial production by the year 2000. We do not believe the subject facility plan provides adequate capacity in the joint facilities for future industrial growth and would like the opportunity to work with you and the consultants to develop a prediction of future industrial use based on historical records and general growth predictions of the report.
