most economical plan of relief for existing combined sewer areas. This
matter discussed in detail in Chapter IV does not overlook the possi-bi1ity
that in decades to come other more effective or more economical
solutions may develop.
On the premise that requirements of stream regulatory agencies may
change over the years, and that more effective and/or economical solu-tions
may develop, for the treatment of storm sewer and/or combined .:-,,'\,'"
sewer overflows, it has been further concluded that emphasis should
be placed on flexibility of design.
Practical Considerations
Throughout the study there has been a continual need to compare advan-tages
and disadvantages of constructing relief sewers for combined sewer
areas, as opposed to attempting partial or complete separation.
The inherent problems of providing complete separation of old estab- .
1ished combined sewer systems are numerous, from a practical standpoint (
very serious. The most significant of these are:
(1) The remoteness of many of the relief areas from a usable
separate storm sewer or from receiving streams.
'" (2) The complicated plumbing patterns for existing yard and
building sewers, most of these being on or within private
properties.
'(3) The difficulty in maintaining service and resultant incon-venience
to business and householders in the improvement
area.
