Multi-Purpose Combined Sewer Overflow Treatment Facility, Mount Clemens, Michigan
Combined sewer overflows from 212 acres within the City of Mount Clemens were conveyed to a treatment-park site. The overflows received initial treatment (settling and surface aeration) in a retention basin. Further treatment consisted of microstraining, disinfection, surface aeration in a series of lakelets, and filtration. The annual existing overflow of 2180 cu ft/acre-inch of rainfall had SS of 50 lbs/acre-inch and BOD5 of 20 lbs/acre-inch. Treatment reduced the annual pollution load by 90 percent. The final lake sampling data has demonstrated that all water quality parameters for fishing, boating, and/or lawn sprinkling--except the toxic and deleterious substances parameters, which were not studied--were met. Very limited investigations were undertaken in the area of recreation, open space, and transitional land use. Treatment of combined sewer overflows was found to be more cost-effective than separation of an existing combined sewer system.
