RE: Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority
Albemarle -Berkeley Wastewater Pump
Station
SEH No. RIVAN 154511 14.00
Enclosed is the application for Virginia Stormwater Management Program (VSMP). As part of on -going
maintenance projects, the Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority (RWSA) is proposing to demolish the
abandoned sand filters and associated buried piping at the Albemarle — Berkeley Wastewater Pump
Station located on the Albemarle High School grounds. The electronic application submittal includes:
• Erosion Control Plan & Stormwater Management Plan
• Storm Water Pollution Prevision Plan & Pollution Prevision Plan
• Plan Set
The sand filter structures are primarily buried and have been out of service since the mid 1970's, when
they were replaced the Albemarle -Berkeley Wastewater Pump Station facilities. Two of the three sand
filter beds are capped with concrete. The pump station still conveys wastewater from this site into the
RWSA interceptor system, to be treated at their downstream wastewater treatment facilities. This work
includes removal and abandonment of previously abandoned sand filters, storage basins, chlorination
facilities, splitter box, yard waterline piping and associated piping and structures. The project will eliminate
old, un-used systems, and replace these areas with pervious, vegetated surfaces.
The fee of $150 has been made by Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority separate to this electronic
submittal.
The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan is submitted without the designation of the Operator/Permittee.
This information will be completed by the contractor once the project is awarded. It is the intent for the
contractor to submit/obtain the grading permit, and at that time, the missing information in the Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Plan will be completed.
