Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into a professional engineering services contract with Camp, Dresser and McKee, Inc. for purposes of undertaking an update to the Division of Sewerage and Drainage's computerized hydraulic model of its sanitary and combined sewer system, in connection with the Sewer System Capacity Model Project.

The model update is necessary to ensure continued conformance with the existing consent orders between the City of Columbus and the State of Ohio; ongoing efforts to eliminate sanitary sewer overflows; minimize Water-in-Basement (WIB) occurrences; evaluate future development/expansion of served areas and evaluate collection system capital improvements projects included in the City's Wet Weather Management Plan (WWMP), submitted to the Ohio EPA on July 1, 2005.
