Upcoming Activities

MSANK and the surrounding municipalities are currently field verifying sites for sewage flow meters and rain gauge installation. The findings of field verifications will be in accordance with the Flow, Rainfall, and Pollutant Monitoring Plan (FRPMP). The FRPMP was submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency in early July 2011. A total of 91 sewage flow meter sites have been initially estimated throughout the watershed. Rainfall monitoring will be performed simultaneously with the sewage flow metering using a network of rain gauge stations. The monitoring project is expected to begin in September 2011 and be completed in September 2012. Results from this project will be used to identify sewer system areas that are contributing the largest volumes of infiltrated water resulting from rainfall.
