Body
Whereas, The City of Milwaukee(City) is eligible for grant funds from the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage district (MMSD) for a study of infiltration and inflow (I/I) in two sanitary sewers located adjacent to two previously constructed detentions basins; and
Whereas, The City currently requires construction permit holders to comply with the City stormwater ordinance (chapter 120); the MMSD stormwater rule (chapter 13), and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Chapter stormwater rule (chapter NR151); and
Whereas, The rules require construction and implementation of stormwater best management practices (bmps) to manage the quality and quantity of stormwater runoff; and
Whereas, One type of bmp that is often constructed in the City is the detention basin; and
Whereas, Detention basins store significant volumes of water; and
Whereas, Water stored near sanitary sewers and sanitary laterals has the potential to increase I/I into the sanitary sewer; and
Whereas, Excess quantities of I/I cause sanitary sewers to overflow and sanitary water to be bypassed to area rivers and lakes; and
Whereas, The City has submitted a proposal to the MMSD in response to their Request for Proposals titled "Construction Criteria for Stormwater Best Management Practices" to study I/I in two sanitary sewers located adjacent to two previously constructed detention basins; and
Whereas, MMSD has adopted Resolution File ID#04-135-9 awarding the City with matching grant funds not to exceed $39,580.00 to study I/I in sanitary sewers near detention basins and recommend construction criteria to minimize I/I near detention basins, a copy of said resolution being attached to this file and incorporated in this resolution as though set forth in full; and
Whereas, The operation of this grant for the Construction Criteria for Stormwater Best Management Practices from January, 2005 through December, 2005 would cost $79,160.00 of which $39,580.00 (50%) would be provided by the city and $39,580.00 would be provided by the grantor; and
Whereas, An Intergovernmental Cooperation Agreement (ICA) between the City and MMSD is required to define the scope and duration of the agreement, the project deliverables, payments and other details required to coordinate the work and complete the project as intended, a copy of said ICA being attached to this file and incorporated in this resolution by reference as though set forth in full; now, therefore, be it
