watershed• Most populated watershed in

MichiganClinton River Watershed Council 3

Clinton River Watershed

Area of Concern (Environmental Protection Agency)

• Degraded fish & wildlife populations• Beach closings and other restrictions• Degradation of aesthetics

Combined sewer overflows are the largest source of pollutants by CRWC

Social Concerns

• Diverts 30 percent of Oakland County’s effluent collected from twelve different cities from the Detroit Water and Sewage Department

• The wastewater is treated to meet the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)

• Includes the construction of an Administration/Environmental Awareness Center

• Educate local communities of the treatment processes used

• Promote awareness of sustainable water reuse

• Site is currently used as a police impound lot, a recreational vehicle storage lot and composite site

• The site is located in an industrial area showing no zoning conflicts

• The adjacent land is owned by DTE Energy Chestnut Station which will provide electrical services to the WWTP

• The site requires clearing and milling of the existing parking lot areas

10

Existing Site Locations

11

Site Plan

• Locate and select sources of wastewater influent processed in the proposed WWTP

• Locate and select receiving bodies of water for the proposed WWTP effluent

• Determine NPDES Permit limits for the project site

• Determine the “best” treatment process for the project

• Develop equipment location and size• Develop a treatment plant master plan that

details the prospects for future expansion• Report all requirements to the project

stakeholders in the Environmental Engineering Technical Report

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design

Based on a case study outlined in the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department Technical Feasibility of Satellite Treatment, 2003 proposed a new 56.3 million gallon per day WWTP along the Clinton River had a projected cost of $225.9 million resulting in a $4.01gallon per day. The Clinton River WWTP is a 50 MGD facility resulting in an initial conceptual estimate of $200 million.
