The area of study that we will focus on will be bounded b north, Dundee Road on the south, Arlington Heights Cook Road on the west, and Buffalo Cove Road on the east. the We suspect that there will be multiple problems identified and likewise multiple solutions. All solutions will be evaluated as we discuss possible solutions with Villa age work towards a single solution. Personnel as we progress and After review of existing data, ATI will propose that the sanitary sewer system and lift stations in the study area be computer- modeled. From the modeling work, we can, project future problem surcharge areas by varying rainfall intensities, sewage flows, lift station pumping rates and coefficients of friction for open channel flow. We would plan on using Terramodel softwar e for the system analysis. W g have PC SWMM software available, should that be the Village's desire. y e also ATI is prepared to perform smoke testing of sanitary sewers should our evaluation and computer modeling warrant it. Considering studies that were done in the past, we do not believe of the existing data that smoke testing will be warranted. At this time, we are not including smoke testing as art of scope of this project. However, we are equipped with the tools and equipment to perform should the need arise. P the P this work We will closely evaluate the condition and capacity of your lift stations and attached f0rcemains serving the project area. It was noted in your data that many of your lift stations were hitting the the d ahi h water level. That may be an indication that your lift stations are undersized in capacity, are worn and have reduced output, or may have undersized forcemain. The possibility also exists that g 4 Ul ILL, dGE OF c{?uffala V r � ;u forcemain may be plugged to some degree or the roughness coefficient has. changed with age thus reducing the capacity. These steps would in no way hinder current programs underway such as individual house plumbing modifications, leaf clean -up, etc. sil 1750 5 W Glot Section 3 AF AppliedTechnologies y n 0 L, SECTION 3 - Firm Experience Recent Project Experience In 1997, ATI successfully modeled the Village of Lake Villa sanitary sewer system and that of a future subdivision known as Cedar Crossings Subdivision in Lake Villa, Illinois. That Subdivision has since been completed in the Village. Joyce DeLong, P.E. was the project engineer on this successful study and continues working for the Village on a multitude of projects. The software used on this modeling project was Terramodel. . One of the side results of that study was the upgrading of four lift stations in the building, which was completed in August of 2001. This lift station project consisted of the installation of three new sets of pumps, controls and wetwells; four new emergency generators and the installation of wireless telemetry to 10 lift stations. Keith Corso, P.E. served as the project manager on that project. Currently, ATI is performing a sewer system modeling project for the City of Watertown, Wisconsin approximately 100 miles northwest of Buffalo Grove. Watertown, a city of approximately 20,000 people, is modeling the entire sanitary sewer system. In addition to the modeling project, ATI is directing the construction of a new Wastewater Treatment Plant for the City. Bill Ericson, P.E., is serving as the project manager. Following record rainfall events that resulted in surcharged sanitary sewers and significant proporty damage, the City of South Milwaukee hired Applied Technologies to perform an analysis of the sewer system. Utilizing a computerized sewer system model, ATI identified several weaknesses in the . system that resulted in the reconstruction of a pump station and force main, relaying of under- capacity sanitary and storm sewers, manhole rehabilitation, and pump station upgrades. Bill Ericson, P.E. served as the project manager. In 2001, ATI successfully completed a sanitary sewer system smoke testing project for the City of South Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The entire city sanitary sewer system was smoke tested to identify illegal down spout and inflow connections. South Milwaukee is a city of 21,000 population approximately 50 miles northeast of Buffalo Grove. ATI owns its own testing equipment for the performance of this work. This project was lead by ATI principal Jim Smith, P.E. Detailed specific project experience sheets are included in the appendix.

Solution: Applied Technologies prepared a sanitary sewer capac- ity study identifying existing deficiencies and evaluat- ing upgrade alternatives. A hydraulic model of the sewer system was developed ro evaluate sewer sur- charging under storm flow conditions. Smoke testing was used to further examine problem areas. Description: The study recommended a comprehensive approach to upgrading the sanitary sewer system to minimize infil- tration/inflow and sewer surcharging. Projects that re- sulted from the sludge included the following: ♦ Pump station/force main replacement a Sanitary sewer replacement ♦ Manhole rehabilitation ♦ Pump station capacity /power upgrades Construction Cost: $1.5 Million Wastewater Treatment Plant South Milwaukee, Wisconsin r SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM Wind Lake, Wisconsin Owner: Town of Norway Sanitary District No. 1 Wind Lake. Wisconsin Issue: The Town of Norway Sanitary District consists of 31 miles of gravity sewers. 5 miles of force main, and 16 lift stations. The District services the Town of Norway and the Village of Muskego, including three major lakes. The existing sewer system is subject to extensive infiltrationtinffow (III). Solution: Applied Technologies prepared a comprehensive III study to evaluate and recommend improvements to the sanitary sewer system. The study included flow monitoring for several months in four interceptor sewers ranging in size from 12 to 24 inches. A hydraulic model of the sewer system was developed to analyze deficiencies in the system and to evaluate sewer system improvements. Description: The study evaluated UI throughout four major basins Only ore basin was found to have major III due primarily to inflow or rainfall - induced infiltration. Recommendations included a comprehensive smoke testing and manhole inspection program in one basin. 0 SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM Watertown, Wisconsin Owner: City of Watertown Issue: The existing 10 -inch vitrified, clay pipe sewer was installed in the 1950's. The pipe was cracked and crushed in several areas and had severe sagging. Also, high slug flows from an industry resulted in surcharging the line. Solution: Applied Technologies evaluated alternatives of replacing the pipe or installing a separate relief sewer. The most cost - effective solution was to replace the deteriorated existing pipe with a new and larger pipe. Description: Applied Technologies designed approximately 3,600 feet of 15 -inch PVC pipe to replace the existing sewer. The project included boring under two railroad tracks. The sewer kept in service through the entire construction period using bypass pumping. Applied Technologies also provided on -site inspection during construction of the project.

SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM Lake Villa, Illinois owner: Village of Lake Villa Lake Villa, Illinois Issue: Population was projected to increase from 3,000 to almost 8,000 In less than 10 years. The existing treatment plant was at capacity with numerous failing septic systems around Deep lake and Cedar take. Solution: Applied Technologies prepared a sewerage system study to evaluate wastewater collection and treatment alternatives in the 10 square -mile area. The alternatives included constructing a new treatment plant, kind application, and new interceptor sewers and pump stations to convey wastewater to the Fox Lake Regional WWTP. A cost - effectiveness analysis was completed along with an Implementation plan, user charge knpacts, and funding procurement. Description: The recommended plan that was constructed included abandoning the Lake Villa WWTP and conveying wastewater to the regional treatment plant through two new major interceptor sewers with approximately 21,000 feet of IS-, IS-, and 21 -inch gravity sewer, 14,000 feet of force main, and 4 pump stations. The project was 70% funded by a grant with the remainder through developer contributions. Construction Cost: $4.5 million P=A " • =-�, JAMES J.
