2020 Sanitary Sewer Manhole Rehabilitation - Bid Award and Professional Engineering Construction Oversight Services - Proposal
History
The Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (MWRD) governs the Village’s sanitary sewer system. MWRD requires sanitary sewer systems that discharge into MWRD facilities to implement measures to reduce excessive Infiltration and Inflow (I&I) from entering the system.
In 2015, the Village selected RJN Group, Inc., of Joliet, Illinois (RJN Group) as the Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Consultant to provide assistance in developing and implementing a Village-wide comprehensive sanitary sewer evaluation & repair program in order to meet MWRD requirements for the Inflow and Infiltration Control Program (IICP).
In 2016, RJN Group conducted comprehensive flow monitoring for the Village sanitary sewer system. Based on those results, three sewer basin areas came up as the highest priority.
