Abstract |
The Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) evaluates 11 alternatives for wastewater treatment for that part of Olathe, Kansas that is in the Cedar Creek Basin. Based on a comparative analysis of both monetary and nonmonetary impact of the alternatives, Environmental Protection Agency has identified a preferred alternative project. The preferred alternative consists of 2 MGD wastewater treatment plant with a gravity interceptor, one major lift station, a force main and attached flow equalization basins. The gravity interceptor is generally aligned with Little Cedar Creek. The one major lift station would pump around the east side of Ernie Miller Park. The facilities proposed for the Upper Cedar Creek Basin were not included in the final preferred alternative. The final EIS is a copy of the draft EIS. |
