Section 327IAC3-6-11. Design flow rate requirements for collection systems and water pollution treatment/control facilities  


Latest version.
  •    (a) The flow rate requirements for collection systems and water pollution treatment/control facilities shall be in accordance with this section. The calculated average and peak flow rate values for a collection system and its associated water pollution treatment/control facilities shall be at least equal to the average and peak daily flow rate of the existing influent plus the flow from the proposed additional service connections calculated as follows:

    (1) The flow rate requirements for the average daily flow rate for residential service connections may be determined by using a general average daily flow rate value. The following method shall be used to calculate average and peak flow rate values:

    ADF = (General Avg) × PRSC

    PDF = ADF × PF

    Where:

    ADF

    =

    Average daily flow rate expressed as gallons per residential service connection per day.

     

    PDF

    =

    Peak daily flow rate expressed as gallons per residential service connection per day.

    General Avg

    =

    General average daily flow rate value in accordance in the following:

     

     

     

     

    200 gpd/unit for 1 bedroom apartment.

     

     

     

     

    300 gpd/unit for 2 bedroom apartment.

     

     

     

     

    310 gpd/unit for single-family homes.

     

    PRSC

    =

    Proposed number of residential service connections.

     

    PF

    =

    Peak daily factor of four (4).

    (2) The flow rate requirements for the average and peak flow rate for service connections are described by Table 11-1 in subsection (b). The following method may be used to calculate the average and peak flow rate requirements:

    ADF = FCF × PSC

    PDF = ADF × PF

    Where:

    ADF

    =

    Average daily flow rate expressed as gallons per service connection per day.

     

    PDF

    =

    Peak daily flow rate expressed as gallons per service connection per day.

     

    FCF

    =

    Flow calculation factors as contained in Table 11-1 in subsection (b).

     

    PSC

    =

    Proposed number of service connections.

     

    PF

    =

    Peak daily factor of four (4).

    (3) If the average and peak daily flow cannot be determined or calculated using the methods described in subdivision (1) or (2), the determination of the average and peak daily flow shall be presented and approved pursuant to section 32 of this rule.

      (b) The following flow calculation factors shall be used in the calculations under subsection(a)(2):
