FY24 Sewer Improvements
During the CCTV Inspection under Sewer System Evaluation Study (SSES) Project, critical defects to the system have been identified.
These defects necessitate rehabilitations to ensure continuing system function and integrity of the overlaying roadways. Rehabilitations
to the existing system will alleviate the need for costly emergency work when failures inevitably occur in the system.
The FY24 Sewer Improvements will be a design and construction project. The rehabilitations proposed will include trenchless and
excavated repairs to the sewer system, as well as green stormwater infrastructure (GSI). These rehabilitations will be designed based on
information gathered in the ongoing CCTV Inspection under Sewer System Evaluation Study (SSES) Project. Project will also include
green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) design and construction improvements.
IAM - Engineering
The FY24 Sewer Improvements relate to the ongoing CCTV Inspection under Sewer System Evaluation Study (SSES) Project. This work
aligns with the long term goal to evaluate and rehabilitate the entire existing sewer system, city-wide. Sewer rehabilitations further
support our department’s goal of reducing Infiltration and Inflow (I/I) to our sewer system as I/I results in additional operational costs
as water handling fees paid to MWRA.

The cost estimate is based on a preliminary plan to address the most critical pipes in the study area of the CCTV project within a single construction season
(calendar year 2023). Due to the abundance of critical defects in the system, the cost estimate contained herein is not intended to fix all sewer system defects in
the study area, rather addressing the most critical defects encountered.
Sewer bond will be supplemented by $330,000 MWRA I/I funds from Phases 9 through 11. I/I program consists of 75% grant and 25% 10-year 0% interest
loans. MWRA I/I loan schedule submitted as separate CIP request.
