GENERAL PLAN CHAPTER II PROPOSED RELIEF SEWERS The plan considered best to provide relief to those areas of Fort Wayne served by combined sewers, consists of a combination of approaches described as follows: A. Separate storm sewers are proposed for several areas which are adjacent to receiving streams. Storm run-off in these areas is collected through new inlets and from inlets now draining to existing combined sewers and in this way providing relief for the existing combined sewer area. B. A system of inlet-connecting sewers i8:~roposed to ultimately provide more complete separation of storm and sanitary wastes in an area (see Inner-City project for downtown and railroad underpass flooding relief). This project will, for the interim period, function as high-level relief for eXisting overloaded combined sewers. C. Combined relief sewers are proposed to be installed to supplement and become part of the existing combined sewer system. For those service areas recommended under C above, this Report (see Chapter IV) contains a recommendation for the further implementation of the Master Plan for eventually treating all or most of the waste waters outfalling from the combined sewer systems. Three major areas of the City have been outlined; wherefrom the overflow discharge from
