Impact/Purpose:
To inform the public.
Description:
The Sanitary Sewer Overflow Analysis and Planning (SSOAP) Toolbox can serve as the foundation of wastewater collection system infrastructure research, among several applications, for analyzing monitored flow data to prioritize where to inspect, monitor, and to assess the performance of rehabilitation activities. In addition, it will support program offices in adding the conducting capacity, operation and maintenance requirements to the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits and help municipalities identify sanitary sewer overflow problems and develop a sensible control plan to meet their NPDES permit requirements.
