Pump Station Preliminary Design
Dear Mr. Pohl,
As part of the plan requirements, we have completed a basic preliminary design for the sewer pump
stations.
Flow Calculations:
A design population of 100 2-person units has an average design flow of 100 gpd/person = 200 gpd/unit.
(SCAT regs - 9VAC25-790-460-F)
The design peak capacity of the system shall be 2.5 times this avg. design flow.
(SCAT regs - 9VAC25-790-310-D)
Avg Design Flow = 100 units x 200 gpd/units = 20,000 gpd
Peak Design Flow = 2.5 x Avg Design Flow = 50,000 gpd (34.7 gpm)
Minimum design pump rate must exceed 35 gpm to allow for the Peak Design Flow.
Basic Pump Station Design:
The pump station shall be an inline underground wet well with submersible pumps that will pump
effluent through a force main at select times when the sewage level reaches set elevations in the wet
well. The pump station will consist of a remote monitoring system that will be managed by a contracted
professional third party, a backup generator in case of loss of power, and an onsite alarm in case of
failure.
Preliminary Wet Well Sizing:
The wet well will be a 60" precast lined watertight manhole. For a wet well with 10' depth well and a
design lead pump switch "on" elevation at 6' above the invert, the well storage would reach 834 gal. of
effluent before the lead pump engaged. In this scenario, the pump would operate roughly 37 times per
day (using the avg. design flow estimate of 20,000 gpd for the 100 units from above). With this basic
design, the lead pump would engage on average every 39 minutes. This cycle period minimizes potential
nuisance from the pump station by ensuring the sewage does not sit long enough to go anaerobic and
also ensures potential adverse noise impacts on future residents are mitigated through cycle frequency
management.

Additional Design Considerations:
The following considerations are based on previous design experience with pump stations, and the final
design shall account for these considerations.
1. Since the pump station will be handling raw sewage, pumps and force main must be capable of
passing 2" solids. Thus, the minimum force main size should be 3". A minimum scour velocity of 2
fps must be achieved within the force main.
2. Two robust pumps shall be chosen to provide redundancy. Multiple switches shall be implemented
which will trigger first one, then both pumps when sewer levels reach critical elevations within the
wet well.
3. CCS Tracer wire shall be installed along the force main to allow for maintenance to immediately
identify the location from above ground.
4. To prevent unpleasant odors, which are mainly caused by sewage going anaerobic, a small air pump
and diffuser shall be installed for the wet well.
5. Fencing and vegetative screening shall be provided to make the pump less conspicuous for residents.

Reliability Classification
Worksheet for Sewage Pumping Stations
Pump Station Name: River's Edge
Location: 38.154061,-78.415820 (off Rte 29 behind Clayton Homes)
Average Daily Design Flow/ Peak Design Flow MGD/MGD : 0.02 / 0.05
Complete Part I and Part II of this form, and submit this form with your CTC application. All assessments are based on
the average daily design flow of the pump station (not peak flow or current flow).
Part I. Reliability Classification Assessment
1. Is the station located in the Dulles Watershed (9 VAC 25-401) or in the Occoquan Watershed (9 VAC 25-410)?
❑ If yes, STOP - Reliability is Class I with special construction requirements (see 9 VAC 25-401 and/or 410).
® If no, proceed to Question 2.
2. The default Reliability Classification for all other pump stations within Virginia is Class I. Is the pump station to be
constructed to meet Reliability Class I?
❑ If yes, STOP - Reliability is Class I.
® If no, proceed to Question 3.
3. Is the design average daily flow to the pump station greater than or equal to 0.5 MGD?
❑ If yes, STOP - Reliability is Class I.
® If no, proceed to Question 4.
4. Is the pump station located in the any of the following localities? Counties of Accomack, Charles City, Essex,
Gloucester, Isle of Wight, James City, King and Queen, King George, King William, Lancaster, Mathews,
Middlesex, New Kent, Northampton, Northumberland, Richmond, Southampton, Surry, Westmoreland or York; or
Cities of Chesapeake, Franklin, Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Poquoson, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Virginia
Beach or Williamsburg.
❑ If yes, STOP - Reliability is Class I.
® If no, proceed to Question 5.
5. Is a public water supply surface water intake within 5 miles downgradient of the pump station or within 1 tidal
cycle upstream of the pump station?
[Contact the appropriate field office of VDH's Office of Drinking Water
htto://www.vdh.virainia.aov/drinkinawater/contacts/. Provide VDH with latitude/longitude information for the pump
station and the average and peak design flows.]
❑ If yes, STOP - Reliability is Class I.
® If no, proceed to Question 6.
6. If the pump station were to overflow, is there high probability of public contact with the wastewater? [Is the station
close to residential/commercial/institutional areas and/or recreational areas (boat landings, posted
swimming/fishing/boating areas, parks) such that an overflow would likely present a public health hazard?]
® If yes, STOP - Reliability is Class I.
❑ If no, proceed to Question 7.
7. Is average daily design flow to the pump station < 2000 gpd?
❑ If yes, STOP - Reliability is Class ll.
❑ If no, proceed to Question 8.
8. Is there a perennial surface water located within 1500 It downgradient of the facility? (Perennial stream defined as
a solid blue line on USGS quad map or determined from field investigation.)
❑ If no, STOP - Reliability is Class II.
❑ If yes, proceed to Question 9.

9. Does the perennial surface water considered in Question 8 above provide less than a 10:1 dilution (7Q10
receiving water flow to average daily design flow); OR is the perennial surface water a 303d listed impaired
segment? [See htto://www.dea.virainia.ciov/wastewater/MunicioalNonWQIFProceduresO32010 for location and list
of stream gauges and 7010 information, and htto://www.den.viminia.aov/waa/303d.htmi for 303d listings]
❑ If yes to either of the questions, STOP - Reliability is Class I.
❑ If no, STOP - Reliability is Class II.
Based on the Part l assessment, the designated reliability classification for this pump station is
Note that DEQ has determined that Reliability Class III is not protective of water quality and is not a valid classification for a new pump
station.
