The State Water Resources Control Board adopted a Statewide General Waste
Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems on May 2, 2006
(GWDR). All state agencies, municipalities, counties, districts, that own or
operate a sanitary sewer system greater than one mile in length that collect
wastewater to a publicly owned treatment facility in California are required to
conform with said order.
The order requires that the Selma-Kingsburg-Fowler County Sanitation District
prepare a Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP), which is to contain
a plan and schedule to properly manage, operate, and maintain the sewer
collection system in its entirety. The goals are, in summary, are to reduce the
preventable occurrences of sewer system overflows (SSO), protect waters of the
United States, provide adequate capacity for design flows, and provide
adequate resources for operation, maintenance, and repair.
The public may review the specific elements of the SSMP at the District office
as they are being drafted in accordance with the schedule as shown in the
District’s SSMP Plan and Schedule.
The final SSMP is required to be approved by the District Board.
Comments and questions shall be submitted to Supervising Engineer, Veronica
