EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Ottawa (the City) retained the services of R.V. Anderson Associates Limited (RVA) to undertake a study to evaluate existing wastewater servicing strategy, and to develop and evaluate alternative strategies if necessary to service the planned development in the West Urban Community (WUC) up to the year 2031 and as far as 2060. This study is intended to determine the preferred servicing strategy, whether it results from the previously developed strategies, or from a completely new strategy. The study is being led by the Infrastructure Policy Unit, with direction being provided by a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) with representation from the Environmental Services, Infrastructure Services and Planning & Growth Management departments. The process being followed constitutes an internal review of wastewater master planning in the WUC that will be used by staff to update the time lines for project implementation, and to determine the extent of changes to the existing Master Plan projects which may warrant consideration in advance of the 2014 Infrastructure Master Plan (IMP) update. Our study investigation formulated seven specific options for the WUC wastewater collection system servicing plan and the preferred solution was identified as Option 1B. This option incorporates the following infrastructure components (including the time-line for their implementation): 1. Construction of 1200mm dia. 2100m long North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 from March Pumping Station (PS) to the end of Phase 1 North Kanata Trunk including connection of Marchwood Trunk to allow gravity flow and bypassing March PS – to be completed by 2014; 2. March PS upgrades (conversion into a low lifting station) including abandonment of the existing forcemain along March Road to be completed by 2014; 3. Replacement and lowering (to allow for future elimination of Watts Creek sewer siphon) of 1650mm dia., 1230m long Tri-Township Collector between Glen Cairn Trunk and the end of Phase 1 of North Kanata Trunk to be completed between 2014- 2017; 4. Signature Ridge PS upgrades Phase 1 (overflow / wet well) to be completed by 2013 and Phase 2 (twining of forcemain) to be completed by 2017 to be coordinated with the proposed Campeau Drive expansion; 5. New Kanata West PS (KW PS) including forcemains to be completed by 2016; 6. Fernbank Trunk sewer to Hazeldean PS to be completed by 2013; 7. New gravity trunk sewer – Interceptor Sewer, and Interceptor Chamber – from the Stittsville / new Fernbank Trunk sewers to KW PS (approximately 3040m long) to be completed by 2021 8. Acres Rd. PS and Watt’s Creek overflow chamber upgrades – to be completed by 2016 The cost estimate for the implementation of Option 1B is $62,860,000 including a 50% allowance for contingency and engineering. The results of this study will be presented in an information report to Planning Committee and Council in Summer of 2012.

Background / Servicing Strategies

The current WUC wastewater servicing strategy consists of a complex system of pump stations, forcemains and gravity sewers converging to a single pumping station at Acres Road that pumps flows to the Lynwood Collector sewer that ultimately conveys the sewer flows to the

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY 11, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -6

Robert O Pickard Environmental Center (ROPEC) for treatment. Several communities such as Carp, Kanata, Stittsville, Munster, Richmond and Bells Corners are serviced by this sanitary sewer collection system, which drains to the Acres Road pump station. The study area incorporates approximately 8175ha (gross area) upstream of the Acres Road pump station. The current Infrastructure Master Plan (IMP) approved by Ottawa City Council in 2009, identifies sanitary sewer infrastructure needs mainly for servicing the planned growth in Kanata and Stittsville based on master servicing studies prepared separately for new communities like Kanata West and Fernbank. While the infrastructure needed to service the growth areas is feasible, it has not been evaluated in conjunction with the existing infrastructure and planned infrastructure upgrades in the WUC, which may provide opportunities to improve the system as a whole and provide a more cost effective solution. In addition, separate investigations have been undertaken due to a number of overflows at pumping stations and flooding incidents reported in the WUC (i.e. July 2009), and resulted in a number of recommendations aimed at reducing flood risk in the wastewater collection system. As the planned upgrades in the community relies heavily on the expansion of existing pump stations and the construction of a new pump station (Kanata West PS), the need exists to develop a high level sanitary servicing strategy for the WUC that minimizes, as much as possible, the risk to public safety and health. Four (4) servicing strategies were developed for the 2031 growth projection, those being: 1. Servicing Strategy #1: Upgrades proposed in the Infrastructure Master Plan Update- Wastewater Collection System Assessment (Stantec, May 2009), considered as the base line. 2. Servicing Strategy #2: A gravity sewer from the location of the proposed Kanata West Pumping Station to the North Kanata Trunk Sewer with a gravity sewer extending from the Hazeldean PS, which is to be abandoned, to the location of the proposed Kanata West Pumping Station. 3. Servicing Strategy #3: A gravity sewer from the Hazeldean Pumping Station (which would be abandoned) to the Lynwood Collector. 4. Servicing Strategy #4: A new gravity sewer from Hazeldean Pumping Station (which would be converted to a low lifting station) to the Lynwood Collector. Flows throughout the sanitary sewer system were projected to the year 2060, which was based on growth projections as a high level approximation of potential growth beyond the current official plan boundary as provided by the City of Ottawa. The intent is to determine if substantial changes to proposed 2031 infrastructure needs would be required to accommodate the future projected flows.

Flow Scenarios

Following the technical advisory committee (TAC) meeting of November 2010, it was agreed that various flow generating scenarios would be modelled, with the results being considered in the evaluation of the servicing strategies. Spreadsheet calculations and a hydraulic model were used to estimate the sanitary sewer rates. The hydraulic model was developed for the City of Ottawa by Stantec under a separate assignment – Wastewater Collection System Dynamic Model – WEST (Stantec, August 2010). The flow generation scenarios resulted in an envelope of flow conditions calculated at key locations in the WUC study area that can assist in establishing and assessing the sensitivity and robustness of the alternative sanitary sewer servicing strategies. Different combinations of

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -7

wastewater flow generation parameters including residential rates, Industrial / Commercial / Institutional (ICI) rates, extraneous inflow and infiltration (I/I) flow values for existing and future growth, as well as consideration of design flow rates from other municipalities were used in the analysis. Three design scenarios were ultimately formulated, for which peak flows were calculated at key locations throughout the study area using a dynamic computer model. Table ES 1 lists the various parameters used in the generation of the design flow scenarios. Table ES 1: WUC Flow Generation Scenarios

The modeled flows were generated by loading the dynamic model with populations, load generating areas, dry weather flow generating parameters, wet weather flow generating parameters, and associated patterns. These same parameters are also used to estimate the 2060 peak spreadsheet flows by applying the residential flow pattern and January 2008 wet weather response I/I pattern to the estimated 2060 average residential flows and I/I areas. The difference between the two approaches is that the peak wet weather flow is considered under the spreadsheet approach, whereas timing, non-coincidental peaks, and flow routing are considered under the model approach. Through discussion with the TAC, Design Flow Scenario 1 was selected as the most appropriate loading scenario to use in evaluating the current and alternative servicing strategies for the 2031/2060 growth conditions since it is consistent with current design practices and produces results similar to the upset condition results of Design Scenario 3. Based on the GIS catchment loading data provided by the City for 2010 and 2031, the dynamic model was updated to ensure it includes the most accurate and appropriate data. In the table below a summary of the growth in the WUC is presented. For additional details on the growth estimation for 2060 as well as the areas anticipated for growth within the WUC see Appendix B (section 3.2 – Tables 3.1 to 3.3 and Figures 3.1 to 3.3).

These areas represent the amount of area that is (or is expected to) be developed within a catchment’s boundary. The difference between the gross and effective catchment area represents “open space”, or area that is not considered to generate I/I flows. The dynamic computer model was first run on the current configuration of the WUC wastewater collection system based on Servicing Strategy #1 that considers the Kanata West PS built and discharging flows into the Glen Cairn Trunk. The results of the three Design Flow Scenarios are tabulated in the Table ES 3 showing flow rates for each of the main components of the sewage collection system in the WUC, downstream to the Acres Road PS. The firm capacity of the existing sewer pumping station as well as the capacity of the existing trunk sewer in the current WUC wastewater collection system are based on different sources such as M.O.E. Certificate of Approvals, Operation/Maintenance Manual, previous studies and functional designs. The flow rates presented in the “Flow” column represent the result of the dynamic model application using the hydraulic Scenario 1 – for more information refer to Appendix B. The shaded cells in the table identify the components of the current sewer system that would be under capacity by the time of the projected growth in 2031 and / or 2060.

Evaluation of Alternative Servicing Strategies

The evaluation of the alternative servicing strategies was conducted following three steps: initial screening, technical screening and detailed evaluation and ranking. After the initial screening strategy #3 was abandoned since insufficient difference in elevation is available to allow the construction of a gravity sewer between the Hazeldean PS and the Lynwood Collector. Following the technical screening, seven (7) options were formulated to be further evaluated and ranked: 1. Strategy # 1: current Wastewater Master Plan.  Option 1A- (existing Wastewater Master Plan – Base)  Option 1B- Wastewater Master Plan plus divert sewer flows from the Stittsville / new Fernbank Trunk sewers to KW PS through a new Interceptor Sewer.  Option 1C- Same as 1B but allows for Hazeldean PS to flow by gravity to KW PS (lower elevation of the new Interceptor Sewer). 2. Strategy # 2: new gravity sewer from Hazeldean PS to existing Phase 1 of the North Kanata Trunk (NKT).  Option 2A- Gravity from Hazeldean PS to KWPS location to NKT.  Option 2B- Gravity from Hazeldean PS to KWPS location then to the Glen Cairn Sewer- install low lift PS. 3. Strategy # 4: convert Hazeldean PS to low lift station, new gravity sewer to the Lynwood Collector.  Strategy 4A- pumps flow to Eagleson Rd., then gravity sewer to the Lynwood Collector.  Strategy 4B - pumps flow to Eagleson R\d., then gravity sewer to the Lynwood Collector; in addition, divert flows form KW PS location to Hazeldean PS. The evaluation and ranking of the servicing options were conducted as per the categories and criteria already developed and applied to the City’s Official Plan update and to other City servicing plans. In total there are four categories:  Natural environment (20%);  Caring and Healthy Communities (20%);  Technical counting (30%);  Economy counting (30%). However, in consultation with the City’s project team the first two categories were abandoned since their scoring at this stage of the study would be subjective and wouldn’t have decisive or significant impact on the options ranking. Thus, overall it was determined that Technical and Economy are the categories that will decide on the preferred option for the present study.

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -11

A relative evaluation and ranking of the servicing options was for each criterion. The alternative servicing strategy options were rated as having High (3 points), Medium (2 points) and Low (1 point) scores compared to the other strategies For example, a high preference rating would indicate that the relative merit / impact of one option is superior to others under a particular criterion. The resulting scores were then weighted and summed to produce a total score for each option. Table ES 4: Option Evaluation Results

Overall, Option 1B scored the highest. The main advantages of the Servicing Strategy Option 1B compared to the other options are:  It is ready to be implemented: studies are already approved for most infrastructure needed by 2016, and thus, no significant delays for the developments in the area are anticipated;  Constructing a new interceptor sewer to off-load flows in the Stittsville Trunk sewer and the new Fernbank Trunk sewer from the Hazeldean PS to the Kanata West PS creates a more balanced sewage pumping system with two main stations that provides more control over sewer flows and system reliability, thus, lowering the risk for overflows and basement flooding during pump failure or extreme wet weather events;  Low capital cost and life-cycle cost As a result, Option 1B derived from the initial servicing Strategy #1 is considered the preferred solution for the WUC sanitary sewer servicing plan. In the following Table ES 5, the sewer flows corresponding for Option 1B under hydraulic Scenarios 1 and 3 are shown for each of the main components of the sewage collection system in the WUC, downstream to the Acres Road PS.

1 INTRODUCTION

The City of Ottawa retained the services of R.V. Anderson Associates Limited to undertake a study to evaluate the current wastewater servicing strategy, develop and evaluate alternative strategies if necessary to service the planned development in the West Urban Community (WUC) up to the year 2031. The servicing strategies were also to be assessed in the context of a longer-term (50-year) growth horizon based on estimates of potential residential and employment demands to test the system for flexibility to meet longer term servicing needs. This study is intended to determine the preferred servicing strategy, whether it results from the previously developed strategies, or from a completely new strategy. The study is being led by the Infrastructure Policy Unit, with direction being provided by a Technical Advisory Committee with representation from the Environmental Services, Infrastructure Services and Planning & Growth Management departments. The process being followed constitutes an internal review of wastewater master planning in the WUC that will be used by staff to update the time lines for project implementation, and to determine the extent of changes to the existing Master Plan projects which may warrant consideration in advance of the 2014 Infrastructure Master Plan (IMP) update. The results of this study will be presented in an information report to Planning Committee and Council in Summer of 2012. The scope of work was also to include the preparation of a dynamic computer model of the wastewater sanitary sewer system for the WUC to be used to assist RVA in determining the flows and planning horizons.

1.1 Background and Authorization

The current WUC wastewater servicing strategy consists of a complex system of pump stations, forcemains and gravity sewers converging at a single pumping station at Acres Road that pumps flows to the Lynwood Collector sewer that conveys drainage further downstream, and ultimately to the Robert O. Pickard Environmental Center (ROPEC) for treatment. The collection system, which drains to the Acres Road pump station, services the communities of Carp, Kanata, Stittsville, Munster, Richmond and Bells Corners. The study area encompasses approximately 8175ha (gross area) upstream of the Acres Road pump station, as shown in Figure 1-1. The current IMP approved by Ottawa City Council in 2009, identifies necessary sanitary infrastructure largely attributed to servicing the planned growth in Kanata and Stittsville. These infrastructure needs were, for the most-part, developed in separate master servicing studies prepared at the time the City was approving Community Development Plans for new communities like Kanata West and Fernbank. Although the infrastructure needed to service the growth areas is feasible, it has not been evaluated in conjunction with the existing infrastructure and planned infrastructure upgrades in the WUC, which may provide opportunities to improve the system as a whole and provide a more cost effective solution.

Hazeldean PS Acres Rd. PS

Figure 1-1: Location Plan In addition, there have been a number of overflows at wastewater pumping stations and flooding incidents reported in the WUC, most notably in July 2009, which has resulted in separate investigations being undertaken that have identified a number of recommendations aimed at reducing flood risk in the wastewater collection system. As the planned upgrades in the community relies heavily on the expansion of existing pump stations and the construction of a new pump station (Kanata West PS), the need exists to develop a high level sanitary servicing strategy for the WUC that minimizes, as much as possible, the risk to public safety and health.

1.2 Objectives

The objective of this assignment is to prepare a master wastewater servicing plan for the WUC to the year 2031, while considering projected growth to the year 2060. There are three (3) servicing strategies identified by the City to be developed further for the 2031 growth projection: 1. Servicing Strategy #1: Upgrades proposed in the Infrastructure Master Plan Update- Wastewater Collection System Assessment (Stantec, May 2009), considered as the base line.

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -16

2. Servicing Strategy #2: A gravity sewer from the location of the proposed Kanata West Pumping Station to the North Kanata Trunk Sewer with a gravity sewer extending from the Hazeldean PS, which is to be abandoned, to the location of the proposed Kanata West Pumping Station. 3. Servicing Strategy #3: A gravity sewer from the Hazeldean Pumping Station (which would be abandoned) to the Lynwood Collector. The evaluation of those strategies as well as the development of other strategies (with the definition of 2031 and 2060) was based on the development projections for lands within the approved Official Plan (OP) boundary provided by the City. The intent is to confirm that the current proposed infrastructure (Strategy #1) provides the best servicing strategy for the WUC, or identify if other servicing strategies (strategies #2, #3 or other) should be pursued. Opportunities for flow removal, diversions or other infrastructure work including replacement of pumping station with gravity trunk sewers that could reduce operation and maintenance (O&M), improve reliability or provide robustness to the wastewater collection system between Hazeldean PS, Kanata West PS and North Kanata Trunk /Acres Rd. PS will also be considered.

1.3 Scope of Work

The work will be completed in the following tasks:  Data collection and background review: collect and undertake a preliminary review of the available background reports, modeling documentation and the City’s development projection for the years 2031 and 2060, aerial mapping and the 1:2000 mapping, along with any relevant record drawings required;  Model input: collaborate with the City’s modeling group to review the model, its development and system configuration. The calibrated dynamic model of the WUC developed in PCSWWM by Stantec will be used in the 2031 and 2060 servicing strategy analyses.  Confirmation of design criteria and service levels: work with the City to confirm the design criteria and service levels that have been used for the City’s model and determine if they are still valid for this project. Consideration will be given to the City’s current design criteria, monitored flow data and extreme events.  Development and evaluation of servicing strategies and corresponding options for each strategy: develop in conjunction with the City PM and TAC, through a workshop, a list of criteria for use in the evaluation of the servicing strategies (for both initial screening, technical screening and for detailed analysis evaluation) and consequently the selection of a preferred strategy and option to service development in the WUC beyond 2031, along with a long list of servicing alternatives. Projected 2060 developments will provide a test of assessing adequacy of existing and proposed searching strategies.  Final report preparation: upon completion of the detailed evaluation, a draft report will be prepared and submitted to the City for review and comments. The report will include the technical memorandums, identified previously, integrated into the report and details of the evaluation

1.4 Previous Relevant Studies

Future wastewater needs for the communities in the City’s west end were previously studied and identified; however, most of those studies were investigating specific community needs

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -17 within the WUC and not all the communities as a whole. The following is a list of studies which have been completed regarding the sanitary sewer collection needs for different communities in the study area. A summary of these reports is included in Appendix A.

 Village of Richmond Water and Sanitary Master Servicing Study and Class Environmental Assessment Phases 1, 2, 3 & 4 (draft dated May 2010)

 Village of Carp Class Environmental Assessment for Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Upgrade / Expansion (dated May 2009)

 Infrastructure Master Plan Update – Wastewater Collection System Assessment (dated May 5, 2009)

 Fernbank Community Design Plan – Master Servicing Study

 Master Sanitary Servicing Plan – Kanata Lakes, Broughton & Interstitial Lands (2007)

 Signature Ridge Pump Station Feasibility Study Report (dated October 2006)

 Kanata West Master Servicing Study, Volume 1 of 2 (dated June 16, 2006)

 North Kanata Sanitary Sewer Infrastructure Upgrade Study, Functional Design Report (dated August 2001) The information provided in those studies combined with the current configuration of the existing sanitary sewer system provides the basis to confirm whether the proposed infrastructure is the best servicing strategy for the WUC or that exists the opportunity to identify other strategies which could include removal or diversion of sewer flows, replacement of pump stations with gravity sewer or modifications to pump stations to provide a collection system with reduced operation and maintenance costs, improved reliability and robustness. The present assignment consists of three (3) phases. The first phase examines on the existing wastewater collection system to identify its current configuration and condition (age, capacity, operating costs, etc.), and the constraints in the system (capacity threshold). The next phase provides the hydraulic modeling of the sewer system with respect to the development projection for 2031 and 2060. Different design criteria was determined based on the City’s current design guidelines, existing monitored flows and extreme events recorded in the area. The sewer flows from the modeling application are further used in the analysis of the proposed servicing strategies and for developing new strategies. The final phase of the assignment provides the detailed analysis of the servicing strategies, preparation of different options for each strategy and the evaluation and ranking process to determine the recommended option for providing the WUC with a reliable, robust and cost efficient sanitary sewer servicing plan.

2 EXISTING WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEM

2.1 Study area and existing configuration

The area to be investigated in this study is part of the approved urban area as defined in the City’s current Official Plan and includes all communities west of Acres Rd. pump station: Bells Corner, Kanata, Carp, Stittsville, Richmond and Munster. Figure 2-1 below depicts the study area, the corresponding communities as well as the existing main components of the wastewater collection system: pump stations and trunk sewers. Currently the wastewater collection in those communities is serviced by 7 main pump stations:  Acres Road PS,  Hazeldean Road PS,  March Road PS,  Signature Ridge PS,  Stittsville PS,  Carp PS, and  Richmond PS. These stations convey wastewater flows from the various areas within the WUC to the main trunk sewers and eventually to the Acres Road pump station. The general servicing operation involves conveying flows from the rural communities of Carp, Munster, and Richmond to Kanata, where these rural contributions are combined with flows from the Stittsville, Hazeldean, Signature Ridge, March, Bells Corners, and Acres/Crystal Beach areas. However, the servicing of the WUC varies depending on the flow conditions at two specific locations: Village of Munster: under dry weather conditions, flows from the Village of Munster are conveyed to Acres Rd PS via Richmond PS, Glen Cairn Trunk, Tri-Township Collector and North Kanata Trunk. Under extreme wet weather flow conditions, contributions from Munster are stored locally and conveyed to Acres Rd. PS at a later time. Crystal Beach Pump Station: this pump station is only operational during extreme wet weather events, specifically when a diversion gate along the West Nepean Collector is closed. During dry weather conditions, flows from the Crystal Beach area are directed along the West Nepean Collector towards the Ottawa Interceptor sewer, the Ottawa Outfall sewer, and eventually to ROPEC. Thus, only during extreme events portions of the flows from Crystal Beach area are pumped to Acres Rd. pump station. In addition, each of the communities included in the study area are serviced by several other pump stations that conveys the wastewater flows to the main pump stations of the system:  in the Stittsville community there are 8 pump stations all discharging eventually into Stittsville Trunk sewer which is discharging at Hazeldean PS: Fairwind, Fringewood, Cedarow, Joseph Circle, Amberwood, Jackson Trail, John Street and Echowood pump stations all located west of Terry Fox Dr. and north of Abbott St. In addition, Hopeside Rd. pumping station which services Kanata South community along the east side of Eagleson Rd. (between Hazeldean Rd. and Fernbank St.) uses South Glaincairn Trunk sewer to discharge at Hazeldean PS.

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -19

 in Stittsville south community there is Friendly pump station discharging into Stittsville PS, which discharges further into Stittsville Trunk sewer and into Hazeldean PS.

Figure 2-1: Study Area  in Kanata north community there is Briarridge pump station discharging at March Rd. PS and from here through the March Rd. Collector the flows are conveyed to Watt’s Creek siphon into Tri-Township Collector and further downstream into North Kanata Trunk.  in the Carp community there is Donald Munro pump station discharging into Carp PS which discharges further into Marchwood Trunk sewer and finally into March Rd. PS.  in the Munster community, in the south, there is Munster 2 pump station discharging flows to Munster 1 pump station which discharges all flows from the community to

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -20

Richmond PS. From here the flows are pumped to Glen Cairn Trunk sewer near Eagleson Rd. and Hazeldean Rd. intersection. As seen above, the wastewater collection system in the WUC relies heavily on pumping stations and forcemains. Out of all the pump stations servicing the WUC, four (4) stations are identified to be critical to the collection system because in the event of failure a large urban area including several communities is at risk of flooding:  Hazeldean PS which services a significant area of the Kanata west and south, and Stittsville communities;  Signature Ridge PS which services a large area (approximately 592ha) north and south of HWY 417;  March Rd. PS which services Kanata north and Carp communities;  Acres Rd. PS which is where all WUC wastewater is collected and transmitted further south through two 1050mm forcemains into the Lynwood Collector. The service of all the pump stations in the WUC is complemented by a network of gravity sanitary sewers that collects and conveys the wastewater from consumers to the pump stations, and by several forcemains and gravity trunk sewers the wastewater is ultimately conveyed to Acres Rd. PS. The main trunk sewers of the system are:  Stittsville Trunk sewer receiving the flows from the pump stations servicing Stittsville community, and conveying them to Hazeldean PS.  Glen Cairn Trunk sewer receiving the flows from Hazeldean PS (including Kanata South area) and Richmond PS at Eagleson Rd. / Kakulu Rd. intersection, and conveying them further downstream to Tri-Township Collector;  Watts Creek siphon sewer receiving the flows from Signature Ridge PS (through Main Street Trunk), March Rd. PS (through March Rd. Collector) and other areas encompassed within the Kanata north communities. The flows are conveyed further downstream into the Tri-Township Collector.  Tri-Township Collector receiving the flows from all the above mentioned areas and discharging them into the North Kanata Trunk sewer;  North Kanata Trunk sewer conveying all flows from Tri-Township Collector downstream to Watts Creek Collector;  Nepean Collector servicing Bells Corner community and discharging into Watts Creek Collector, and  Watts Creek Collector conveying all flows from the WUC (from North Kanata Trunk and Nepean Collector) and discharging at Acres Rd. PS. From here the flows are pumps through two 1050mm diameter forcemains into Lynwood Collector.

2.2 Existing conditions and constraints

The study focuses on the main components of the sewer system in the core of the WUC, since they are critical for the system reliability. The condition of those key components currently includes several known capacity constraints located at different points in the system where upgrades are needed. For study purposes, the WUC wastewater drainage basin was divided into three parts or geographic areas:

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -21

 Acres Rd. PS and the corresponding infrastructure directly related to the station operation i.e. Overflow Chamber, Watts Creek Collector, Phase 1 of North Kanata Trunk and Tri- Township Collector;  Area serviced by March Rd. PS (including Carp community), Signature Ridge PS. and the corresponding sewer system mainly located north of Highway 417 and west of March Rd.;  Area currently serviced by Hazeldean PS and Glen Cairn Trunk (including Kanata West, Stittsville, Kanata South, Richmond and Munster communities); Below, the existing conditions of sewer trunks, collectors, pumping stations and adjacent infrastructure corresponding to each of the three parts of the WUC sanitary sewer system are presented based on information provided by previous studies (refer to section 1.4) and through communication with the City’s project team.

2.2.1 Acres Rd. – pump station and sewer trunks:

Tri-Township Collector: built in 1968, 1067mm diameter, 1240m long with 1803L/s capacity. Flows monitored in 2010 showed 1802L/s; over 40 years in service, appears to be in poor condition, under capacity and as identified in many previous studies, it needs to be replaced between the joint chamber TR 02100 and the TR 01000 at the North Kanata Trunk (approximately 1.2km). Regardless the sewer servicing strategy to be recommended, rehabilitation of the Tri-Township Collector must be part of it due to its poor condition. However, when this rehabilitation is to be implemented depends on the recommended strategy – the capacity of the sewer could be either increased by upsizing or freeing-up capacity by redirecting upstream sewer flows through other routes. Freeing-up some capacity will only delay the necessary replacement of the sewer but will provide additional time for budgeting and approvals. North Kanata Trunk – Phase 1: built in 2003, 1800mm in diameter, 940m long with 4050 to 4640L/s capacity. Flows monitored in 2010 showed 1802L/s; new trunk sewer with sufficient capacity to accommodate future development in the WUC. Previous studies identified the need to extend the North Kanata Trunk with Phase 2 from the upstream end TR 01000 to the March Rd. PS at Legget Dr. In this situation flows from Carp communities and some of the Kanata north lands will be diverted from the Watts Creek siphon freeing sufficient capacity in the siphon for future land development associated to Signature Ridge PS servicing. Watts Creek Collector: built in 1990 is a 1950mm diameter, 4100m long sewer pipe with 5418 to 6640L/s capacity conveying in 2010 approximately 1992L/s; provides sufficient capacity to accommodate future development in the WUC. Acres Rd. PS: built in late 80’s (1989) has 2700L/s current firm capacity, and the station recorded 2119L/s flows in 2010. The current station configuration provides the 2700L/s capacity with 4 out of 5 pumps running. In addition, the station’ Certificate of Approval allows for 3 more pumps to reach a maximum net station capacity of 4600L/s. In the light of the sewer flows projected for 2031 and 2060, the pump station will need to increase its capacity gradually in the following years. However, the upgrades will need to include the replacement of current pumps with more energy efficient pumps in order to avoid the supplementary replacement of the station power generators. Watts Creek Relief System: built in 1988 is a key component in the WUC sanitary sewer system operation, specifically in the Acres Rd. PS operation. This system comprises an Overflow Chamber, with a sluice gate operated manually, a 1350mm diam. overflow pipe at 0.2% slope and 2390L/s capacity, stop logs arrangement for maintenance of the sluice gate and

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -22 overflow monitoring system. The sluice gate appears to be in poor condition including the manoeuvring system showing a high risk of failure. Thus, upgrades to this Overflow Chamber are mandatory specifically to the sluice gate and the operating system – a new system with electronic actuator for the gate operation should be implemented. In addition, the ability to operate this gate from ROPEC should also be considered for implementation. Regardless the sewer servicing strategy to be recommended, the overflow chamber must be rehabilitated soon as this component is critical to the proper operation of Acres Rd. PS, the WUC sanitary sewer system and against the risk of basement flooding occurrences.

2.2.2 Area serviced by March Rd. PS and Signature Ridge PS:

Watts Creek Siphon: built in 1969, 900mm diameter, 410m long with 1014L/s capacity. Flows monitored in 2010 showed 863L/s; over 40 years in service, getting close to the trunk capacity. Future development on Kanata north, Carp community and lands north of HWY417 (associated to Signature Ridge PS and March Rd. PS) cannot be accommodated by the siphon. For this component, the recommendation is to increase capacity by either upsizing the siphon or freeing- up capacity by redirecting flows upstream through other routes. March Rd. PS and forcemain: built in 1976 have the current capacity at 480L/s and the flow in 2010 was recorded to approximately 326L/s. Approaching firm capacity, March PS was identified in previous studies (Signature Ridge PS – Feasibility Study Report 2006 and North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2, 2001) as a key constraint point in the system. The same studies identified the solution for this constraint – construction of a new gravity sewer North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 from the pump station to the existing Phase 1 of North Kanata Trunk, gravity connection of the Marchwood Trunk and the conversion of the pump station into a low lifting station. In this situation the upgrading of the station would be minimized – no capacity increase, no forcemain upsizing replacement. Consequently, the current forcemain would be decommissioned and additional capacity will become available in the Watts Creek siphon and the Tri-Township Collector. As a result, no sewer upsizing for Watts Creek siphon is needed and design and construction of the Tri-Township upsizing could be deferred. Signature Ridge PS and forcemain: built in 1992 with the current capacity of 140L/s and 54L/s recorded flow in 2010; 25 years in service, the pump station was recommended for capacity upgrade to 358L/s (Signature Ridge PS – Feasibility Study Report 2006). The upgrading includes pumps, valves, wet well, overflow and second forcemain installation. Currently the pump station upgrading is under design. Tendering and construction of the upgrades to station is expected in 2012/2013. Second forcemain installation is going to be coordinated with the proposed Campeau Drive expansion.

2.2.3 Area serviced by Hazeldean PS and Glen Cairn Trunk:

Glen Cairn Trunk: built in 1999, 1200mm diameter, 3460m long with 2988L/s capacity. In 2010 the monitored sewer flows showed 1128L/s; sewer trunk is in good condition, only 12 years in service, it is able to accommodate the future new Fernbank land development. Hazeldean PS and forcemain: built in 1976 with the current capacity 1225L/s (recently upgraded – 2010/2011) the pumping station has been over 35 years in service. The Infrastructure Master Plan Update (2009) recommends upgrading the pump station to 1550L/s capacity for the 2031 development growth projection and to approximately 1933L/s for the 2060 projection. Currently, two 600mm diam. forcemains are in service. A third, older cast iron; 400mm diam. forcemain is not in use because of poor condition and is not considered operational. To obtain the future required 1550L/s output capacity will require the construction of

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -23 a new 600mm diam. forcemain. An overflow to the Glen Cairn stormwater pond is to be constructed in 2012 – 2013. Most of the constraints identified above were already identified in previous studies and they are: Hazeldean PS, Signature Ridge PS, March PS, Tri-Township Sewer Collector, and construction of Kanata West PS to accommodate new development in the Kanata west community. In addition, in the Infrastructure Master Plan Update – 2009 (IMP), the cost for implementing some of the upgrades were estimated to approximately $43M and it includes the following:

North Kanata Trunk – phase 2 $8.5M Tri-Township replacement $4.0M Kanata West PS and forcemains $21.25M March PS conversion $0.95M Hazeldean PS upgrades $3.71M Upgrades to Signature Ridge PS and forcemain $4.3M

The study also estimated $2.5M for the construction of a new sanitary sewer trunk to accommodate the proposed Fernbank Lands development. This sewer is proposed parallel to the Stittsville Trunk sewer to discharge at Hazeldean PS and is to be implemented by 2012 / 2013.

3 MODELING SCENARIO SELECTION

3.1 Projected expansion and growth

The study area’s catchments were assessed and area, population, ICI, and employment summaries under various conditions identified in collaboration with the City are as follows: Table 3-1: Projected area expansion and population growth (includes Bells Corners and Carp)

3.2 Design Scenario selection

The Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meeting of November 2010 agreed that various flow generating scenarios would be modelled, with the results being considered in the model runs. These scenarios generation were to provide a solution envelope which would aid in establishing and assessing the sensitivity and robustness of a sanitary sewer servicing strategy. Different combinations of wastewater flow generation parameters including residential rates, ICI rates, extraneous I/I flows values for existing and future growth, as well as consideration of design flow rates from other municipalities were investigated. These scenarios represent the following: Scenario 1 – Use of monitored flows for existing and design values for future growth. Scenario 2 – Monitored values for existing and future growth. Scenario 3 – Monitored values of existing and future growth for residential and ICI and a 50% safety factor applied to existing and future growth for I/I rates. Table 3-2 below presents the design criteria used to create the three design scenarios for the analysis of the development strategies. Each scenario was used to estimate the sanitary sewer

flow rates in the West Urban Community for the projected population and development of 2031 and 2060.Initially, the calculations of the peak wet weather sanitary sewer flows were performed using a spreadsheet model which were then used in the calibration of a dynamic model to provide sewer flow estimation at different key locations over the WUC wastewater collection system. This model was developed for the City of Ottawa by Stantec under a separate assignment – Wastewater Collection System Dynamic Model – WEST (Stantec, August 2010). Table 3-2: WUC – Analysis of Design Flow Generation

The unit flow rates in Table 3-2 were used in a numerical hydraulic model based on the Strategy #1 servicing plan. The results of these three scenarios were tabulated in the following Table 3-3 showing flow rates for the main components of the sewer system between Hazeldean PS and Acres PS. Based on the GIS catchment loading data provided by the City for 2010 and 2031, the dynamic model was updated The flows were generated by loading the dynamic model with populations, load generating areas, dry weather flow generating parameters, wet weather flow generating parameters, and associated patterns. These same parameters are also used to estimate the 2060 peak spreadsheet flows by applying the residential flow pattern and January 2008 wet weather response I/I pattern to the estimated 2060 average residential flows and I/I areas. For additional details on the growth estimation for 2060 as well as the areas anticipated for growth within the WUC see Appendix B (section 3.2 – Tables 3.1 to 3.3 and Figures 3.1 to 3.3). The coloured cells in the table identify the component of the current sewer system that is under capacity by the time of the projected growth in 2031 or 2060. Scenarios 1 and 3 produced comparable flows that were more conservative than those produced by scenario 2. As a result, scenario 2 has been screened out from further consideration. Through discussion with the TAC, Design Flow Scenario 1 was selected as the most appropriate loading scenario to use in evaluating the current and alternative servicing strategies for the 2031/2060 growth conditions since it is consistent with current design practices and produces results similar to the upset condition results of Design Flow Scenario 3, which will be used as a stress test to determine if there are any revisions to the plan warranting consideration.

3.3 Future constraints and issues

Based on the table above, the existing constraints previously identified are now addressed based on the sewer flow projections for 2031 and 2060 under Scenario 1. Using a standard linear extrapolation from 2010 to the projected years for each of the sewer components with capacity issues, the approximate time when those components are in need for capacity upgrading in order to accommodate the projected sewer flows were determined. Pumping Stations upgrades are required: - for Acres Rd. PS by no later than 2016 when the existing 2700L/s firm capacity will be reached. As mentioned before, upgrades for Acres PS involve replacement of the existing 4 pumps and addition of three new pumps; - Overflow Chamber upstream Acres Rd. PS rehabilitation by 2012 - for March Rd. PS capacity increase by no later than 2022 when the existing 490L/s firm capacity will be reached. However, the North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 is to be implemented by 2014, and thus, March PS will be modified to low lifting PS by the same time. - for Signature Ridge PS capacity increase by 2043. The upgrades to the 360L/s firm capacity are undergoing and are expected to be implemented by 2012 / 2013; - for Hazeldean PS capacity increase and construction of a third forcemain by 2021; - for Stittsville PS capacity increase by 2031/2032 since it will reach almost the existing firm capacity Trunk sewer capacity upgrades are required: - for Tri-Township Collector replacement and upsizing by 2017, provided that the NKT Phase 2 is implemented by 2014. - for North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 to be completed by 2014 - for March Ridge Trunk and Watts Creek siphon replacement and upsizing by 2026. However, since NKT – Phase 2 is to be implemented by 2014, all flows from March PS shall be then diverted directly to the NKT, and thus, significant capacity will be freed up in those trunks, avoiding therefore, upgrading in the near future.

4 SANITARY SEWER SERVICING STRATEGIES – ANALYSIS

4.1 Investigation approach

At the onset of this project, the City identified three (3) sanitary sewer servicing strategies to be assessed for the 2031 projection scenario. Additional strategies were to be developed following the investigation of these first strategies and finally they would in turn be used as a baseline to which further options were identified in order to provide servicing for 2060 development projection. The three servicing strategies are:

1. Servicing Strategy #1: Upgrades proposed in the Infrastructure Master Plan Update- Wastewater Collection System Assessment (Stantec, May 2009), considered as the base line. These upgrades include the following infrastructure work  Second phase of North Kanata Trunk sewer: approx. 2100m from MH tr01000 to Herzberg Rd. to the 1200mm diam. concrete pipe stub from March Rd. PS;  March Rd. PS conversion into a low lifting station, decommissioning of the stations forcemains, the March Rd. Collector and connection of the pump station to the North Kanata Trunk (second phase);  Kanata West PS and forcemains: new construction;  upgrades to Hazeldean PS: to accommodate additional flows from Fernbank Lands development;  upgrades to Signature Ridge PS and forcemains: include upgrades to the wet well, the pumps and the forcemains to support the proposed development proceeding in the immediate area;  replacement of the Tri-Township Collector: the existing sewer collector is too small to accommodate the expected flows from the projected developments (Fernbank Lands, area near Signature Ridge PS and new Kanata West PS)

2. Servicing Strategy #2: A gravity sewer from the future location of Kanata West Pumping Station to the North Kanata Trunk Sewer with a gravity sewer extending from the Hazeldean PS, which is to be abandoned, to the future location of Kanata West PS (see Figure 4-1). The purpose of this strategy is to minimize the number of pumping stations needed, Hazeldean PS, Kanata West PS (won’t be built anymore), Signature Ridge PS were to be eliminated. The main remaining pump stations for the servicing system would be March Rd. PS which will be upgraded as per the Strategy #1 and Acres Rd. PS which also will need to be upgraded based on the new projected flows for 2031 and 2060 growth. The upgrades identified in Strategy #1 for March PS as well as North Kanata Trunk (phase 2) are still the same for this strategy.

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -29

Figure 4-1: Servicing Strategy #2 – general plan

3. Servicing Strategy #3: A gravity sewer from the Hazeldean PS (which will be abandoned) to the Lynwood Collector (see Figure 4-2). This strategy was also identified as reliable development for the sanitary sewer system since Hazeldean PS will be decommissioned and a significant sanitary sewer flow (approx. 39% of the existing Acres Rd. PS capacity) will be diverted directly to Lynwood Collector. Thus, capacity upgrades for Acres Rd. PS could be avoided. In the future, if the elevations between the Hazeldean PS and Lynwood Collector would allow the construction of a new gravity sewer, there is an opportunity to convey sanitary sewer flows from Kanata West PS and Signature Ridge PS via gravity sewers (dash arrows in Figure 4-2). However, March Rd. PS upgrades together with the North Kanata Trunk (phase 2) still need to be implemented.

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -30

Figure 4-2: Servicing Strategy #3 – general plan

The strategy evaluation process included three steps:

 Initial screening: determine whether the alternative servicing strategies are hydraulically feasible - a ”go-no go” assessment. If they were feasible, then the alternative strategy was considered further in the second step, and if not, the alternative strategy was discarded from further analysis – but only after the strategies were re-examined to determine if minor modifications to the strategies could make them feasible. Furthermore, refinements and variations of the alternative servicing strategies were developed with the objective of enhancing the performance of the individual strategies.

 Technical screening: first a brief analysis was conducted in order to determine the possible routes (corridors) available for sewer trunks and forcemains – location, construction, risks, and social / environmental impact. Once the preferred corridors were identified, several servicing options were formulated for each strategy based on the sewer flows projected under modeling Scenario 1. For each option a brief evaluation was performed with respect to risks, construction methods, impact on capital cost, future operation and maintenance costs, phasing of the construction, and also with respect to requirements for approval from different agencies, EA investigation and property acquisition requirements (or sewer easement requirements).

 Detailed evaluation and ranking: the options of each strategy were ranked against each other as per the established evaluation criteria that includes environmental and social

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -31

impact, technical capacity (phasing flexibility, short-term and long-term reliability, and implementation time-frame) and economy (capital cost, life-cycle cost, and operation and maintenance costs).

4.2 Initial screening

For the initial “go – no go” analysis, the hydraulics of the proposed strategies were investigated at a high level to identify if the existing elevation of the outlets and the ground surface considered for each strategy would allow the implementation of the proposed infrastructure work.

4.2.1 Initial Screening Strategy #1

Strategy #1 is based on infrastructure proposed by previous studies. Two significant gravity sewers are proposed in this strategy and are briefly reviewed below:

 North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2: March Rd. PS is to be converted into a low lift pumping station discharging into a 1200mm diam. concrete pipe stub left between the pump station and Herzberg Rd. / Legget Dr. intersection. The pipe invert at the intersection is 70.45m and the length to NKT (TR01000 invert 67.00m) following the alignment already determined in the North Kanata Sanitary Sewer Infrastructure Upgrade Study (2001) is approximately 2100m. Thus, the slope is approximately 0.16% which is within the City’s Sewer Design Guidelines.

 Replacement for the Tri-Township Collector from the joint chamber with Glen Cairn Trunk and Watts Creek sewer siphon to the North Kanata Trunk (NKT) at the upstream end (TR01000). The collector is in poor condition and its current diameter (1050mm) cannot provide enough capacity for near future flow increase. The collector will be replaced by a larger size pipe following the same alignment. It could be replaced at the same current elevation or at a deeper elevation. Regardless the servicing strategy recommended for implementation at the end of this assignment, the Tri-Township Collector is recommended to be replaced at a deeper elevation to create an opportunity in the future for the decommissioning of the Watts Creek sewer siphon;

The rest of the infrastructure work proposed in Strategy #1 refers to upgrades to sewage pump stations and construction of a new pumping station and forcemains (Kanata West PS). Thus, Strategy #1 is considered further in the technical screening where different options will be formulated.

4.2.2 Initial Screening Strategy #2

This strategy minimizes pump stations by building a gravity sewer to convey sewage flows from south to north, specifically from the location of Kanata West PS (KW PS) to the NKT – Phase 1 at the upstream end (MH TR01000). For the purpose of this investigation a few possible routes for the new gravity sewer were considered. For example, from the location of KW PS following the Maple Grove Rd. alignment through to Eagleson Rd. and from here following the alignment of the Glen Cairn Trunk sewer and Tri-Township Collector to NKT. Another route was considered from the location of KW PS to Eagleson Rd. via Katimavik Blvd. Table 4-1 below shows the anticipated invert at the KW PS location as determined in previous studies for Kanata West lands (i.e. Kanata West Master Servicing Study, Volume 1 of 2 – June 16, 2006) and the existing invert at the upstream end of the NKT.

However, as mentioned before, for this strategy the investigation checked the possibility of building a gravity sewer from Hazeldean PS and respectively from Signature Ridge PS to the location of Kanata West PS. In this case the inlet invert at Kanata West PS as determined in previous studies might need to be deeper in order to accommodate both mentioned gravity sewers. Table 4-2 below indicates the minimum elevation of the inlet at KW PS corresponding to minimum slope gravity sewers (0.1%) from Hazeldean PS and Signature Ridge PS as well as the recommended values to provide enough allowances to permit design and construction of the sewers.

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -33

4.2.3 Initial Screening Strategy #3

This strategy diverts a portion of south Kanata to the Lynwood Collection Sewer. It proposed a gravity sewer to convey sewage flows from west to east, specifically from Hazeldean PS to the Lynwood Collector. For the purpose of this analysis three locations were considered for connection to Lynwood Collector: MH LC01700 the upstream end, MH LC01000 at Greenbank St. and MH LC00700 at Woodroffe Dr. Table 4-3 below shows the inlet invert at Hazeldean PS compared to the sewer collector invert at the three proposed connection points.

4.2.4 Development of Additional Strategies

Strategy #1 and #2 are considered feasible but Strategy #3 is a “no go” case. However, a new Strategy #4 was formulated instead and further investigated. The concept of this strategy includes modification to Hazeldean PS and forcemains to pump into a new gravity sewer that will convey the sewer flows from the station to the Lynwood Collector, with the station servicing as a low lift station. Table 4-4 below shows what invert is required at the Hazeldean PS outlet in order to have a gravity sewer at a minimum 0.1% slope connecting into the Lynwood Collector respectively to the three connection points. The proposed inverts also include allowance for the inherent drops in the maintenance holes along the trunk sewer routes.

In addition, future upgrades will only involve the pumping capacity.  a significant sewer flow will be diverted from the Glen Cairn Trunk; therefore, providing more capacity for future development in the Kanata west lands.  the same sewer flow will also be diverted from Acres Rd. PS, thus, avoiding pumping capacity upgrades in the near future. In conclusion, there are three servicing strategies considered for further analysis: Strategy#1 following the Infrastructure Servicing Master Plan Upgrades – study, Strategy #2 that conveys through a gravity sewer trunk flows from Hazeldean PS to the North Kanata Trunk via the location of the Kanata West PS and Strategy #4 where flows from Hazeldean PS are pumped into a new gravity sewer trunk to discharge into the Lynwood Collector.

4.3 Technical Screening – Development of Servicing Options

4.3.1 Sewer Corridors Investigation

The following represents a brief analysis of possible routes to be used for alignment of the proposed infrastructure in each strategy. The corridors are ranked based on the constructability issues (i.e. right of way width, road configuration – street lights poles, sidewalks, grass boulevard etc.), risk of social and environmental impact (corridors through parks, bicycle paths, next to highways, traffic characteristics), requirements for approval and property purchase, and they were considered as follows: - low: when construction of the sewer trunk will involve significant safety issues related to construction procedures, traffic control, operation and maintenance, significant social impact during construction and operation of the trunk, and will require approvals from several different agencies (RVCA, DFO, NCC) and acquire large easements from different owners (NCC, MTO, or private);

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -35

- medium: when construction does not pose significant issues, but there are some concerns and potential high risk of social and environmental impacts, requires approval from different agencies, and large easement purchase from different owners; - high: when construction does not pose significant issues, there is low risk for social and environmental impacts, and there is a minimum requirement for approvals and property purchase.

Sewer Corridors for Servicing Strategies #1 and #2

In Figure 4-3 below, several sewer corridors were identified between Hazeldean PS, Kanata West PS location and North Kanata Trunk. Those corridors are considered for servicing options related to Strategy #1 and #2. Out of those corridors, two were ranked lowest in our list due to the many challenges and risks they would add to the sewer trunk construction, and thus, not considered further in the options analysis:  Corridor #6 (north side of HWY 417) since involves working next to a highway with insufficient area for a safe construction environment (access and egress from construction site, traffic safety and control, etc.), crossing a highway bridge (Kanata Ave.) and crossing a pedestrian overpass. Other issues and risks involve operation and maintenance procedures as well as property ownership (most likely to be located on MTO property) and easements to be acquired  Corridor #10 (March Rd.) because of the relation to the other corridors; it is actually in a valid location for a sewer trunk, even though it involves working on a heavy traffic City arterial road with several intersections and ramps to/from HWY 417. On the east side of March Rd., there is a good 8m width between the outer asphalt traffic lane and the property limit where the trunk could be installed. However, this corridor is only linked to corridor #6, and there is no other opportunity yet identified to be used in conjunction with other corridors; Regarding Strategy #1, the routes for the proposed new sewers were already investigated and approved. For example, North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 as per the North Kanata Sanitary Sewer Infrastructure Upgrade Study (August 2001), the replacement of the TTC will take place under the same alignment and the forcemains for Kanata West PS will follow Katimavik Blvd alignment to Eagleson Rd where it connects into the Glen Cairn Trunk (Kanata West Master Servicing Study – 2006). With respect to Strategy #2, there are several possible routes for gravity sewer from Hazeldean PS to KW PS location and to the North Kanata Trunk. From Hazeldean PS to the KW PS location there are corridors #1, #7 and #8 that could be used. Corridor #1 is approximately 500m longer than corridor #7 and approximately 1000m longer than corridor #8 but is located on the City’s right of way along Terry Fox Dr. and Maple Grove Rd. Both corridors #7 and #8 are located on private land, thus requesting land acquisition. However, with respect to sewer constructability corridors #7 and #8 are preferred depending on the strategy and the corresponding potential options because they present several advantages compared to corridor #1:  there is no traffic disruption expected, thus, significant reduction in cost;

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -36

 based on the calculated inverts and ground surface elevations, a gravity trunk sewer will most likely be installed by open-cut on both corridors #7 and #8 while on corridor #1 a large portion would be installed by tunnelling due to the fact that Terry Fox Dr. towards Maple Grove Rd. is gaining in elevation. Therefore, significant reduction in cost is expected for using corridor #7 or #8;  both corridors are located on lands already proposed for development (surrounding KWPS area and the Fernbank lands), thus, a gravity sewer trunk can be integrated as part of those developments. For the routes from Kanata West PS location to the North Kanata Trunk, the recommended corridors are #3 through Maple Grove Rd. alignment to Eagleson Rd. and #9 which is the current alignment for Glen Cairn Trunk and Tri-Township Collector. Even though Katimavik Blvd. (corridor #4) presents a better route from Terry Fox to Eagleson Rd. due to low traffic disruption during construction (large grass boulevard on the north side), corridor #3 was recommended because based on the calculated inverts and ground surface elevations, a gravity trunk sewer would be installed by tunnelling regardless the route taken and corridor #4 (Katimavik Blvd.) is approximately 700m longer, thus adding significant cost to the construction.

Sewer Corridors for Servicing Strategy #4

Similar to corridors for Strategies #1 and #2, in Figure 4-4 several sewer corridors were identified between Hazeldean PS and Lynwood Collector for the servicing options related to Strategy #4. The main constraints identified for this strategy are related to the fact that sewer infrastructure has to cross federal land (approximately 2.0km of sewer is located on NCC property and on a heavy forested and swamp landscape) and HWY 416. Out of those corridors, two were ranked lowest in our list due to the many challenges and risks they would add to the sewer trunk construction, and thus, not considered further in the options analysis.  Corridor #5 is considered low – proposing to use the Hydro easement nearby Hazeldean PS to install the new sewer trunk from the pumping station to Richmond Rd. The easement is not wide enough through the residential area to provide a safe distance from the Hydro power towers and the private properties adjacent to the easement.  Corridor #6 is considered low – along Robertson Rd. and Richmond Rd. a new sewer trunk would be possible to install even though some higher costs could be triggered by traffic control issues since both streets shows heavy traffic and several intersections with traffic lights to cross. However, this corridor is disregarded due to the eastern end where the proposed sewer trunk would have to cross HWY 416. At this location the highway is approximately 10m lower than the ground elevation on both sides and very difficult ground condition encountered during the highway rehabilitation would make the crossing very difficult and very expensive. For the section from Hazeldean PS to the intersection Richmond Rd. / West Hunt Club Rd., the preferred corridors are #1 and #3. Corridor #4 is entirely on the City’s right of way, however, it is approximately 1km longer and will involve traffic disruption and social impact since is going through the main urban way of the Kanata south community. This will significantly increase the construction cost compared to corridors #1 and #3 where no traffic disruption is anticipated. Corridor #3, however, crosses NCC lands, which in turn implies some additional costs and scheduling to produce a federal EA, obtain approvals and sewer easement acquisition. For the following section from Richmond Rd. / West Hunt Club Rd. intersection to the Lynwood Collector, three corridors were investigated: #8, #9 and #10 Corridors #9 and #10 provide the connection to Lynwood Collector at Greenbank Rd. and Woodroffe Ave and are located on the City’s right of way. Compared to #8, they are respectively 0.7km and 2.7km longer. Corridor #8 is approximately 1.9km long, however, by using this route approximately 1km of the Lynwood Collector section needs be replaced which will add significant cost to the construction due to sewer bypass and easement size issues. Further in the option development for Strategy #4, corridors #9 and #10 are considered.

4.3.2 Servicing Options for Strategy #1:

In developing different servicing options for this strategy, our investigation assessed the distribution and direction of the sewer flows in the system, specifically between Hazeldean and Kanata West PS. Regarding the Kanata north lands, Carp and lands serviced by Signature Ridge PS, the preferred servicing solution is the modification of March PS (low lifting station) and the construction of the North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2. As a result, significant current and future sewer flows are diverted from the Watts Creek siphon providing enough capacity for future development of the land serviced by Signature Ridge PS. In addition, the Tri-Township Collector needs to be replaced regardless of the sewer configuration upstream since it is nearing its capacity. Therefore our focus is on the area south of HWY 417, in the Kanata West, Stittsville, Fernbank and Kanata South lands. Currently the main pump station in this area is Hazeldean PS with a firm capacity of 1225L/s (achieved - 2010/2011) and a future capacity need of 1533L/s (for 2031) and 1933L/s (for 2060) as per the sewer flow projections under modeling Scenario 1. The Kanata West PS, as proposed in the Kanata West Master Servicing Study – 2006 should have a 765L/s capacity. The Hazeldean PS ultimately would be 2.5 times larger in capacity than Kanata West PS. In order to create a more balanced system, two servicing options aside from the initial Strategy #1 option were developed. The net effect is to reduce flows to the older Hazeldean PS and create a more robust system. Option 1A: This initial servicing option based strictly on the previous Infrastructure Master Plan Update recommendation (Figure 4-5), and includes the following infrastructure components: 1. Construction of North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 (from March PS to North Kanata Trunk) 2. March PS upgrades (conversion into a low lifting station) 3. Replacement of Tri-Township Collector between Glen Cairn Trunk and North Kanata Trunk; 4. Signature Ridge PS upgrades (overflow / wet well / forcemain); 5. Hazeldean PS upgrades (capacity increase / third forcemain) 6. New Kanata West PS (KW PS) including forcemains; 7. Fernbank Trunk sewer to Hazeldean PS

Two additional options (1B and 1C) were produced for this strategy and they are based on a new gravity interceptor sewer, and interceptor chamber used to divert flows from the Hazeldean PS to the KW PS. The rational for this interceptor sewer is to control and divert portion of sewer flows from the Stittsville Trunk and future Fernbank Trunk to the Kanata West PS, avoiding the additional need of upgrades to Hazeldean PS and third forcemain (item 5 in the above list is removed for Options 1B and 1C). In addition, depending on the configuration of the interceptor sewer (i.e. larger size, deeper installation) it creates the opportunity for a future gravity sewer from Hazeldean PS to KW PS to Tri-Township Collector.

Option 1B was created to avoid additional upgrades to Hazeldean PS. Thus, the new interceptor sewer and the diversion chamber will have to convey, at a minimum, the flow difference between the current capacity of the pumping station (1225L/s) and the future pumping flows projections – at least 312L/s up to 2031 and 712L/s up to 2060. In this case, the recommended size for the new sewer would be 975mm in diameter installed at 0.15% slope which will provide approximately 900L/s capacity. The connection at the KW PS would then be approximately 87.64m elevation, which is about 1.14m above the anticipated inlet invert of 86.50m (Kanata West Master Servicing Study – June 2006). Capacity of the KW PS and forcemains would be increased to 1920L/s. A recent study conducted by Stantec under a separate cover analyzed and detailed the routing of the proposed interceptor sewer and the flows to be diverted from the Stittsville / new Fernbank Trunk sewers to KW PS as well as the potential of decommissioning some of the local sewage pumping stations in the west area of the KW PS. For more information refer to West Urban Community Sanitary Sewer Servicing. Technical Memorandum – Stantec, May 2012. The study selected for the new interceptor sewer four routes from the Stittsville / new Fernbank Trunk sewers located on Trans Canada Trail to KW PS (Figure 4-7). Based on discussion with various developers and/or their representatives about where each of the developments in the area is in terms of planning, approval or construction process, several sub-routes were developed for each of the four routes initially selected. Based on the results of the study that analyzed several sewer flow diversion, the impact on KW PS future configuration, the impact on Hazeldean PS future configuration and HGL control, as well as of the cost associated with each sub-route, the City staff considered sub-route R4-C as the preferred option for the new interceptor sewer. This option includes the following:  two diversion chambers: on the Stittsville Trunk and on the new Fernbank Trunk (Street A / Trans Canada Trail intersection)  interceptor sewer of 900mm diam. at 0.18% slope (approximately 800L/s capacity) for approximately 2220m to Trinity Development (north of Hazeldean Rd.)  interceptor sewer of 975mm diam. at 0.16% slope (approximately 905L/s capacity) for approximately 600m to Maple Groove Rd, and  upsize existing Maple Groove sewer to 1050mm diam. at 0.2% slope for approximately 220m to KW PS. The solution also proposed two gates for each chamber to limit and/or divert all flows to either KW PS or Hazeldean PS. This configuration will provide the most flexibility to operating the system under all conditions. This interceptor sewer route provides additional interim residual capacity at the Hazeldean PS and also flexibility in operation of the Hazeldean and KW pumping stations. Based on the projection flows for 2031, capacity increase of the KW PS and forcemains will be required. The estimated capital costs (including 50% contingency and engineering) for proposed interceptor sewer are $6.21M with additional cost to KW PS at $1.48M and KW PS forcemains at $1.14M. The estimated capital costs (including 50% contingency and engineering) for the third Hazeldean PS forcemain which would no longer be required are $7.40M. As a result, further in our analysis, Option 1B will include the new interceptor sewer from the Stittsville and new Fernbank Trunk Sewers to KW PS as per the route R4-C identified in Stantec’s Technical Memorandum (May 2012)

Option 1C uses the same idea as Option 1B but it takes into perspective the future configuration of the entire WUC wastewater collection system. This option proposed the construction of a new similar Interceptor Sewer and Chamber to divert sewer flows in excess of the Hazeldean PS capacity of 1225L/s to KW PS but with the possibility that in the future an overall gravity sewer system to be implemented from Hazeldean PS to KW PS to Tri-Township Collector. In order to facilitate this option, the diversion must take place closer to the Hazeldean PS compared to Option 1B. The new Interceptor Sewer will be designed to convey all the sewer flows from the Hazeldean PS projected for 2060. As previously identified in section 4.3.1 in the Technical Screening, corridor #7 (Figure 4-3) or similar to route R2 shown in Figure 4-7 (approximately 2700m), is considered the preferred alignment for the new interceptor sewer, which would be sized to 1500mm in diameter and installed at 0.1% slope. The connection to KW PS would be approximately 2.5 to 3m deeper than previously anticipated (from 86.50m to approx. 83.60m) such that in the future other gravity sewers could be put into service connecting Hazeldean PS to the Interceptor Chamber and KW PS to the Tri-Township Collector. This way, a gravity sanitary sewer system from Hazeldean PS to Acres Rd. PS would be created and both Hazeldean and KW pumping stations would be decommissioned. Another advantage of this option could be the fact that the new proposed inlet elevation for the KW PS will allow in the future to build a gravity sewer from Signature Ridge to discharge at KW PS location, and thus, decommissioning the former pumping station. Overall, both Option 1B and 1C provides a better, more reliable and robust sewer system than option 1A. In addition, Option 1C allows in the long term for switching from a sewage pumping system to a gravitational sewer system. However, implementing one of these options will imply modifications to the proposed KW PS: firm capacity will need to be increased (from the current approved capacity of 765L/s to at least 925L/s and 1420L/s corresponding respectively to 2031 and 2060 projections) in the near future (by 2022 / 2023) and in particular for option 1C the pumping station inlet invert would need to be deeper and has to be implemented now during the design of the pump station. For both options, however, additional increase in capacity for Hazeldean PS and the construction of the corresponding third forcemain are not required anymore. All three options will be further investigated with respect to impact on the environment and communities, short term and long term reliability as well as construction cost, life cycle cost and operation and maintenance costs.

4.3.3 Servicing Options for Strategy #2:

From the concept of this strategy (gravity sewer from Hazeldean PS to North Kanata Trunk via Kanata West PS location, and elimination of the Hazeldean PS, Signature Ridge PS and also avoiding the construction of Kanata West PS), two options were developed for the WUC sanitary sewer system. Option 2A (Figure 4-8) which includes the following infrastructure components: 1. Construction of North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 (from March PS to North Kanata Trunk) 2. March PS upgrades (conversion into a low lifting station) 3. New gravity trunk sewer from the KW PS location to North Kanata Trunk (6860m); thus replacing the Tri-Township Collector; 4. New gravity trunk sewer from Hazeldean PS to KW PS location (3250m); 5. New gravity trunk sewer from Signature Ridge PS to KW PS location (1820m) WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -46

6. Signature Ridge PS upgrades (overflow / wet well / forcemain); 7. Hazeldean PS upgrades (capacity increase) 8. Fernbank Trunk sewer to Hazeldean PS As seen, upgrades to Signature Ridge PS and Hazeldean PS are still part of the option since the construction of the corresponding gravity sewers (points 4 and 5) will not be finished before the time when those upgrades are needed. Ultimately this option will eliminate Hazeldean PS and Signature Ridge PS and will avoid the construction of Kanata West PS, thus providing a gravity sewer spine from south to north across the WUC. However, construction of the new gravity sewer from the location of Kanata West PS all the way to North Kanata Trunk – 6.9km, needs upfront capital and to be finished by the end of 2016 when the Kanata West PS is anticipated to be commissioned. The construction cost requires a significantly higher investment compared to the construction of Kanata West PS (including the corresponding forcemains) because the new gravity sewer will be mainly built by tunnelling – approximately 4.9km of tunnel out of the total 6.9km. In addition the time frame for implementing this option is very tight because new studies are required: EA study, sewer easement widening, preliminary design, detailed design etc. would take approximately 2 years and the actual construction of the sewer would take approximately 2-3 years which most likely is over the 2016 infrastructure need. These delays may not be acceptable in light of current development commitments. Option 2B (Figure 4-9) was developed as a phasing solution for the gravity sewer construction of Option 2A. This option proposes a first phase for the construction of a shorter gravity sewer through tunnelling (3.1km) from the location of KW PS to Eagleson Rd. and a new low lifting PS there to discharge flows into the Glen Cairn Trunk. In addition, the Tri-Township Collector must also be replaced as part of this first phase. The second phase includes the construction of another trunk sewer from the low lifting PS on Eagleson Rd to the new Tri-Township Collector. Thus, the PS on Eagleson Rd. will be decommissioned. The advantage of this option compared to Option 1A is that there are less costs needed up front and Glen Cairn Trunk which is a new sewer (only 12 years in service) will be used for at least another 35 years when it will reach its capacity. At that time, the second phase will need to be implemented which provides the City with plenty of time for budget planning.

4.3.4 Servicing Options for Strategy #4:

Investigating this strategy further, critical constraints were identified with respect to the initial form presented in section 4.2.4.: conversion of Hazeldean PS into a low lift station and construction of a gravity sewer outlet from the pump station to Lynwood Collector. Investigating the cover depth associated with the construction of this gravity sewer along the corridors identified in section 4.3.1., determined that the construction of this sewer will be almost entirely by tunnelling (depths ranging between 15m and 26m). In this situation, the construction cost for over 10.5km of tunnelling is excessive with respect to the options of the other strategies, and thus other options were ought to be examined.

Maintaining the same concept of Strategy #4, two options, 4A and 4B were developed. Option 4A (Figure 4-10) concept is as follow: Hazeldean PS will not be modified, however the sewage flows will be only pumped to Eagleson Rd. (instead of Glen Cairn Trunk), and from Eagleson Rd. a gravity sewer will be built to Lynwood Collector following the same corridors as previously determined. The difference from the initial concept is that at Eagleson Rd. the gravity will be at a much higher elevation such that only approximately 3.2km out the total 10.5km of the gravity sewer are required to be built by tunnelling, which decreases the cost and the time for implementing this option.

The infrastructure components included in this option are: 1. Construction of North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 (from March PS to North Kanata Trunk) 2. March PS upgrades (conversion into a low lifting station) 3. Replacement of Tri-Township Collector between Glen Cairn Trunk and North Kanata Trunk; 4. Signature Ridge PS upgrades (overflow / wet well / forcemain); 5. New Kanata West PS (KW PS) including forcemains; 6. Hazeldean PS upgrades (capacity increase / forcemains from the pump station to Eagleson Rd. to discharge into a new gravity sewer; see point 8); 7. Fernbank Trunk sewer to Hazeldean PS; 8. New gravity trunk sewer from Eagleson Rd. to Lynwood Collector (via West Hunt Club Rd., and Greenbank)

Option 4B (Figure 4-11) developed further Option 4A to include sewer flows from Kanata West land development. This option includes the following infrastructure: 1. Construction of North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 (from March PS to North Kanata Trunk) 2. March PS upgrades (conversion into a low lifting station) 3. Replacement of Tri-Township Collector between Glen Cairn Trunk and North Kanata Trunk; 4. Signature Ridge PS upgrades (overflow / wet well / forcemain); 5. Hazeldean PS modification and upgrades (capacity increase/ forcemains from the pump station to Eagleson Rd. to discharge into a new gravity sewer; see point 8 and deepen the pump station inlet to accommodate flows from Kanata West) 6. Fernbank Trunk sewer to Hazeldean PS;

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -50

7. New gravity trunk sewer from Eagleson Rd. to Lynwood Collector (via West Hunt Club Rd., and Greenbank); 8. New gravity trunk sewer from KW PS location to Hazeldean PS;

Option 4B was intended to divert all flows south of HWY 417 – Stittsville, Kanata West, Kanata South, future Fernbank lands and some of the lands north of HWY 417 that are serviced by Signature Ridge PS to Hazeldean PS and from there to Lynwood Collector at Greenbank Rd. The Signature Ridge PS will be decommissioned and Kanata West PS will not need to be built.

However, there are many constraints and issues with this option. First, it involves a large up front capital in a very short time frame: Kanata West PS needs to be built by 2016, which means the gravity sewer (~10.3km) from Eagleson Rd. to Lynwood Collector and the gravity sewer (~3.1km) from the KW PS location to Hazeldean PS has to be in place by 2016. In addition, Hazeldean PS inlet needs to be modified (deepen) to be able to accommodate flows from Kanata West lands. There is no study done to date for the routes of those two gravity sewers as presented in Figure 4-11. They are crossing different types of lands (private and/or NCC land, MTO, MNR etc.) which will involve approximately 2.5 to 3 years for studies (EA studies, requirements and approval from different federal agencies and owners, preliminary studies, and design) and around 3.5 to 4 years to build them.

Secondly, in this configuration the Hazeldean PS becomes the main pump station in the WUC sanitary sewer system turning the existing trunks and collectors (Glen Cairn Trunk, North Kanata Trunk, and Watts Creek Collector) as well as Acres Rd. PS into components with considerable space capacity which may increase the future operation and maintenance needs in the system. Currently the existing trunks and collectors in the system, excepting Tri-Township Collector have enough capacity to sustain the future development in the WUC up to 2060. Acres Rd. PS with minor upgrades could easily provide capacity for the 2060 growth projections. Thus, there is a significant existing capability of the system that will not be used to its full potential.

In Appendix C sewer calculation with respect to each of the options investigated above are provided as well as a sewer flow table (Table C-1) similar to Table 3-3 (modeling results for the sewer system / pumping stations and trunk sewers) which includes each of the options and the resulting flows in the existing components of the WUC sanitary sewer system that are not modified or abandoned.

4.4 Evaluation and ranking of sanitary sewer servicing options

4.4.1 Evaluation Categories and Criteria

At a functional design / EA level of assessment, the evaluation and ranking of the servicing options considers:  Natural environment counting for 20% of the scope and evaluating with respect to the impact on local terrestrial systems, on local aquatic systems and to the long term impact on ecological processes;  Caring and Healthy Communities counting for 20% of the scope and evaluating with respect to the disruption to community, compatibility with planning policies and to the impacts to archaeological / heritage values;  Technical counting for 30% of the scope and evaluating with respect to the short-term reliability, the long-term reliability and the redundancy requirements;  Economy counting for 30% of the scope and evaluating the servicing options with respect to capital cost and the operation and maintenance costs, the life-cycle cost and the readiness for implementation. However, in consultation with the City’s project team, it was determined that for the first two categories, scoring at this stage of the study would be too subjective and wouldn’t have decisive or significant impact on the options ranking. For example, all servicing options are using the same corridors in the core of the WUC between Hazeldean PS and North Kanata Trunk: same alignment for North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2, same sewer easement for Tri-Township Collector replacement or new gravity sewer trunk, same corridors for forcemains or gravity sewers from or to Kanata West PS. Therefore, impact on terrestrial and aquatic systems as well as disruption to community will be very close the same for all of the options or not significantly different. Options 4A and 4B due to the sewer route from Eagleson Rd. to Lynwood collector crossing NCC lands which also include some marsh area might score less for impact on aquatic system but might score high for disruption to community. Thus, overall it was determined that Technical and Economy are the categories that will decide on the preferred option for the present study.

4.4.2 Servicing Options Ranking

Technical – Reliability As mentioned under this category, the evaluations focus on the short-term and long-term reliability. Short term considers the level of risk during construction and commissioning during each stage of implementation of a servicing option and the ability to meet growth needs. Risk over a long-term system considers failure and the ability to mitigate risk through Operation and Maintenance practices and contingency planning. For Options 1A, 1B and 1C the short-term reliability is considered high since there is a low risk for delays in construction or commissioning the proposed infrastructure. Forcemains for all the pump stations (new and upgrades) will be constructed under standard open-cut method (2.4 to 3m deep), and gravity sewers (Options 1B and 1C) will also be constructed open-cut deeper this time but in field with no delays from traffic disruption, or social impact. As per the City’s sewer guidelines, all sewage pumping stations require overflow provision to reduce the possibility of basement flooding should a pump station suffer loss of capacity. However, Options 1B and 1C reduce the potential for overflows by providing an inter-connection

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -54

(interceptor sewer) between the Hazeldean PS and the KW PS. Thus, over long-term reliability, Option 1B and 1C would score higher than 1A. Options 2A, 2B and 4B show low short-term reliability due to the fact that there is a high risk associated to the construction of the proposed infrastructure. Tunnelling is required for the construction of the main proposed infrastructure and construction progress is highly dependent on the ground condition, thus, there might be a high risk of delaying the commissioning of the infrastructure on time for the development requirements. In addition, for all these three options, the time frame for approval is very tight as mentioned in the earlier screening. Option 4A, shows great short-term and long-term reliability since Kanata West PS could be built on time, and the gravity sewer from Eagleson Rd. to Lynwood Collector could be built at a later date. However, a new pump station and approximately 10.5km of gravity sewer need to be built which will have a significant impact on capital costs and life-cycle cost (see table below). In terms of long-term reliability, Options 2A and 2B will score high since eventually three pump stations are eliminated from the system: Hazeldean PS, Signature Ridge PS and the proposed Kanata West PS. Option 4B could also score high since Signature Ridge PS is to be decommissioned and Kanata West does not need to be built anymore. Economy - Capital Cost and Life-Cycle Cost Estimates In the table below, the capital cost estimates for each option presented include 50% for engineering and contingency. However, the values presented in the table do not show what and when the infrastructure components for each option are to be implemented. Details of the cost calculation based on construction method, diameter of pipes and pump station upgrades as well as the year when different components for each option are to be implemented, major upgrades as well as full replacement (i.e. for pump station life cycle) are presented in Appendix D. Table 4-5: Capital Cost Estimation of Servicing Options*

The life cycle cost analysis is based on the following parameters: 1. Life span for - sewer trunks = 100 years, with upgrades (lining) or replacement at the end; - forcemain = 75 years, with upgrades (lining) or replacement at the end; - pumping station = 40 years with major upgrades at 25 years; 2. Operation and Maintenance costs for - sewer trunks = 0.2% of Capital Cost (CC) – more realistic than 5.0% considered in RMOC Wastewater Master Plan 1997

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -55

- forcemain= 0.2% of CC – more realistic than 5.0% considered in RMOC Wastewater Master Plan, 1997 - pumping station = 2.5% of CC – based on the operation & maintenance cost and electricity cost values received for the last two years for March Rd. PS, Signature Ridge PS and Hazeldean PS (see Table D-2 in Appendix D). This value is slightly smaller than 3.6% used in Stantec’s Kanata West Master Servicing Study 2006 3. Pump Stations major upgrades are based on the Infrastructure Master Plan Update and are considered to be 40% of the pump station full replacement capital cost (see Appendix B for more details) 4. Financial parameters: - annual average discount interest rate = 5% - similar in Stantec's Kanata West Master Servicing Study 2006 - annual average inflation interest rate = 2% - similar in Stantec’s Kanata West Master Servicing Study 2006 - combined interest inflation factor = 2.94% - similar in Stantec’s Kanata West Master Servicing Study 2006 The results of the life-cycle cost analysis in more detail are also presented in Appendix D (Tables D-3 to D-5) where values for different discount rates are also shown for sensitivity analysis. In the Table below the Net Present Value at year 2012 using a 5% discount interest rate is presented for each option. Table 4-6: Life-Cycle Cost Analysis of Servicing Options*

Servicing Option Evaluation For each criterion, the alternative servicing strategy options were rated as having High (3 points), Medium (2 points) and Low (1 point) scores compared to the other strategies. For example, a high preference rating would indicate that the relative merit / impact of one option is superior to others under a particular criterion. The resulting scores were then weighted and summed to produce a total score for each option.

The results of the evaluation indicate that the current servicing strategy that relies on pump stations and forcemains generally ranks higher than the gravity servicing strategies. Overall, Option 1B scored the highest. The main advantages of Servicing Strategy Option 1B compared to the other options are:  This option is ready to be implemented: studies are already approved for most infrastructure needed by 2016, and thus, no significant delays for the developments in the area are anticipated;  Constructing a new interceptor sewer to off-load flows in the Stittsville Trunk sewer and the new Fernbank Trunk sewer from the Hazeldean PS to the Kanata West PS creates a more balanced sewage pumping system with two main stations that provides more control over sewer flows and system reliability, thus, reducing the risk for overflows and basement flooding during pump failure or extreme wet weather events. In addition, compared to Option 1A, it provides opportunity for decommissioning several pumping stations located in the Stittsville community (i.e. John Street PS, Joseph Circle PS, Amberwood PS, Fringewood and Fringewood North PS, etc)  Low capital cost life-cycle costs As a result, Option 1B, derived from the initial servicing Strategy #1 is considered the preferred solution for the WUC sanitary sewer servicing plan.

4.5 Modeling Scenario 3 results for Option 1B

The following Table 4-8 shows the impact on the infrastructure components of the projected flows from 2031 to 2060 based on modeled results under Scenario 1 and 3. The intent is to

 Richmond PS as anticipated, needs capacity increase under Scenario 3 by 2027;  Stittsville PS, as identified previously needs capacity increase by 2031/2032 (regardless of the hydraulic scenario considered);  Hazeldean PS remains at the current capacity (1225L/s) until 2031 and further to 2060 depending on how much flows are to be diverted through the new interceptor sewer to KW PS;  Kanata West PS needs capacity upgrade for pumps and forcemains under both scenarios by 2022 / 2023 to function for the 2031 projected flow; depending on the upgraded capacity; a second increase might be required for the 2060 projected flow.  Signature Ridge PS as identified previously, only under Scenario 1 would need capacity increase by 2043  Acres Rd. PS projected flows slightly exceeds the station’s approved firm capacity (4600L/s) when compared to the 2060 projections flows under both scenarios. It is recommended that flows to the station be monitored and assess the need for further changes. With respect to the trunk sewers, the Glen Cairn Trunk and the North Kanata Trunk, both show minor needs for increased capacity for the 2060 flow projections. The March Ridge Trunk will be able to meet flows to 2060 without an increase in capacity, based on the March Pump Station modifications to a low loft and the installation of the North Kanata Trunk - Phase 2. Capacity increase will be required in the upstream section of the Penfield and Main Street Sewer before 2060.

4.6 Enhancement Opportunities for Option 1B

Option 1B provides the WUC with the preferred sanitary sewer servicing strategy. A number of additional opportunities exist that would allow enhancement to the system in order to provide future flexibility for sewer flows and management of the system. These include:  Lowering the Tri-Township Collector to allow for the removal of the Watts Creek Siphon and for future gravity sewer to tie-in if necessary.  Move KW PS to Palladium Drive allowing lower overflow.  Upgrades to Acres Road PS (replacement of existing pumps and additional new pumps for capacity increase) and rehabilitation of the overflow chamber (new sluice gate, electronic actuator, level monitoring and access gate control from ROPEC) The following provides additional discussion on each enhancement:

4.6.1 Lower Tri-Township Collector

As identified from the beginning (section 2.2.1), the Tri-Township Collector is in poor condition and needs to be replaced. However, the replacement could be done by lowering the invert of the new collector starting at the junction of Glen Cairn Trunk / March Ridge Trunk / Tri-Township Collector in order to allow in the future removal of the Watt’s Creek siphon from the March Ridge Trunk. In addition, lowering the Tri-Township Collector replacement could provide opportunity for future gravity sewer to tie-in. For example, if Glen Cairn Trunk sewer would need to be upsized in the future, a deeper trunks sewer could be installed, thus, providing opportunity for other

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -59 gravitational sewers upstream to tie-in, i.e. gravitational sewer from KW PS. Further detailed investigation during the design of the Tri-Township Collector replacement would be required to better refine the elevation of the new invert. The cost to lower the sewer to allow for future gravity sewer to tie-in was estimated to $1,000,000 and has been carried in the cost estimates shown in this report.

4.6.2 Move KWPS to Palladium Drive

Moving the KWPS to Palladium Drive from the proposed Maple Grove, downstream along the Carp River may allow for a lower overflow elevation. As the Carp River is a very low sloped river, an assessment would be required to determine how much the proposed overflow could be lowered. The distance between the two roads is about 500m and may cost more due to deeper trunk sewer installation than the shallower twin forcemains. This change could be assessed in further detail at the design stage to determine if the cost and flexibility outways the reduced risk due to a lower overflow.

4.6.3 Acres Road Pumping Station

The Acres Road PS current capacity is 2700 l/s based on 4 out of 5 pumps in operation. The station has the capacity to add three more pumps for a total of 8 pumps. The stations configuration has two 1050mm diameter forecemains and backup power is provided by two generators (air cooled 1300kw). In assessing the existing pumps and backup power, each generator can only run three pumps which will not provide the future required capacity. In order to run four pumps on each generator, keeping the same type of pumps, the generators would have to be upsized and therefore changed to a water cooled system. It is uncertain if the area water system has the capacity to meet the cooling needs of the generator when in operation, this would need to be confirmed. Another option to consider may be to change out the pumps. The current pumps have been in operation for approximately 22 years and are nearing the end of their normal life expectancy. Also, the stations existing capacity requires increasing and thus the need for more pumps or more efficient pumps now available due to technology changes over the last two decades. An example of this would be to install 3-CT3531ITT pumps in the dry pit by replacing existing pumps on each forcemain. Each set of three pumps would only require 680KW of back up power so a fourth pump could be added to each existing generator. Thus, as the pumps require changing in the near future, the new pumps would negate the need to change the backup generators. It is also anticipated that the future pump efficiencies should allow the station to pump more than the 4600 l/s existing capacity as shown on the certificate of approval. In assessing the forcemains, 5200 l/s can be pumped through the two forcemains keeping the velocity below 3 m/sec (max. as per city design guidelines). The estimated capital costs to change each of the pumps out is:  $300,000 for materials  $50,000 for installation For eight pumps, total capital cost is estimated at $2.4 million. If a 50% contingency and engineering is added ($1.2 million) the cost is $3.6 million. Modifications are also required on the Watts Creek Sewer to allow for flows greater than 2000L/s to be recorded. This may involve raising the monitors, provision of new monitors or WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -60 type or system modifications. The extent of necessary modifications will require further investigations. It must also be noted that the Watts Creek overflow chamber may require upgrades to the operating gate if more reliance is put on this overflow. It is also noted that the capacity of this overflow will not have the capacity of a fully flowing Watts Creek Sewer. Further investigation as to the impacts of this limitation on potential systems flooding and impacts is recommended. However, rehabilitation of the existing sluice gate including the operation system, access control and monitoring levels is estimated to approximately $250,000.

4.7 Cost and Phasing Schedule

The table below lists the key components of the preferred wastewater servicing strategy, the cost of the key components (in 2012 dollars) and the anticipated schedule for the commissioning of the key components. The schedule has been estimated based on the modeling results. It is recommended that flow monitoring be undertaken to confirm actual flows and to make the necessary adjustments to the noted timelines for commissioning the key components of the servicing strategy.

5 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The existing wastewater collection system servicing the West Urban Community consists of a complex system of pumps and gravity sewers converging on a single pump station at Acres Rd. With respect to growth considerations, separate master servicing studies have been conducted for communities within the WUC, and although the proposed works are feasible they have not been evaluated as being part of a system and there may be opportunities for improvement. Thus, it is necessary to confirm that either the current strategy, that remains reliant on new or existing pump stations, is maintained or is there a better option that could possibly reduce the vulnerability of pump stations during wet weather flow conditions, the operation costs, and improve the system reliability. RV Anderson Associates Limited (RVA) was retained to undertake this assignment to evaluate developed servicing strategies or to develop new strategies if necessary to service the planned development in the WUC up to the year 2031 and as far as 2060. Three servicing strategies were identified by the City for investigation: 1. Servicing Strategy #1: Upgrades proposed in the Infrastructure Master Plan Update- Wastewater Collection System Assessment (Stantec, May 2009), considered as the base line. 2. Servicing Strategy #2: A gravity sewer from the location of the proposed Kanata West Pumping Station to the North Kanata Trunk Sewer with a gravity sewer extending from the Hazeldean PS, which is to be abandoned, to the location of the proposed Kanata West Pumping Station. 3. Servicing Strategy #3: A gravity sewer from the Hazeldean Pumping Station (which would be abandoned) to the Lynwood Collector. This study provided the following: 1. Identify constraints to growth in the existing sanitary sewer system. 2. Assess the hydraulics of the system; a hydraulic modeling application was developed and used with respect to the growth projection for 2031 and 2060. Design criteria were determined based on the current City’s design guidelines, existing monitored flows and records of extreme wet weather events in the area. 3. Develop new strategies and evaluation and ranking process for the recommendation of the preferred sewer servicing option.

Existing Constraints:  with respect to the main sewer trunks in the system: o Tri-Township Collector needs replacement due to its current reduce capacity; o Watts Creek sewer siphon appears close to reach its full current capacity; however, if planned North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 (a new gravity sewer from March Rd. PS to the upstream of North Kanata Trunk- Phase 1) is implemented, significant capacity would be freed up from the Watts Creek sewer siphon;

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -63

 with respect to the main pumping stations: o Acres Rd. PS needs pump upgrades (replacement by more energy efficient pumps) and capacity upgrades (three extra pumps); o March Rd. PS to be converted into low lifting station once the North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 is implemented; o Signature Ridge PS needs upgrades – wet well, pumps and forcemains, and o Hazeldean PS needs upgrades – pump capacity and a third forcemain;

Hydraulic Modeling scenario The hydraulic model was run based on the proposed servicing Strategy #1 considering Kanata West PS built and discharging into Glen Cairn sewer Trunk. Different combinations of parameters including residential rates, ICI rates, extraneous I/I flows values for existing and future growth as well as design rates from other municipalities were investigated and three scenarios were formulated. Scenarios 1 and 3 produced comparable flows more conservative than scenario 2 which was discarded from further consideration. Ultimately, Scenario 1 was selected as the most appropriate to carry through the investigation of the servicing strategies for the 2031/2060 conditions. The design criteria used for the Scenario 1 modeling application is presented in the table below. Table 5-1: Flow generation Scenario 1

Year Residential Rate ICI Rate I/I Rate Existing Future Existing Future Existing Future (L/c/d) (L/c/d) (L/ha/d) (L/ha/d) (L/ha/s) (L/ha/s) 2031 200 350 20,000 50,000 Jan 2008 Design (0.28) Scenario 1 2060 200 350 20,000 50,000 Jan 2008 Design (0.28) Based on the modeling results, projected flows for each of the main components of the sewer system between Hazeldean PS and Acres Rd. PS as well as for other components in the system were pointed out at different key locations throughout the system. As a result, the existing constraints previously identified were reviewed and a time frame for upgrades was formulated: - for sewer trunks: Tri-Township Collector to be replaced by 2015, Watts Creek sewer siphon to be upgraded by 2027; however, the construction of North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 is estimated to be completed by 2014 including modifications at March PS (convert into a low lifting PS), and thus the capacity constraint in the sewer siphon will be eliminated and the time for replacement of the Tri-Township Collector pushed to 2017. - for pumping stations: upgrades to Stittsville PS by 2031/2032, upgrades to Hazeldean PS by 2021 (current firm capacity at 1225L/s ), upgrades to Signature Ridge PS by 2043 provided that 360L/s firm capacity is implemented by 2012, conversion of March PS by 2014 and upgrades to Acres PS by 2016.

Investigation and detailed analysis of the servicing strategies

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -64

Initial screening of the proposed servicing strategies identified Strategies #1 and #2 feasible, and Strategy #3 not feasible due to insufficient vertical drop from the Hazeldean PS inlet elevation to the invert of the connection point at Lynwood Collector (which was considered at upstream end, or at Greenbank Rd., or at Woodroffe Ave.). However, a new Strategy #4 was formulated instead: Hazeldean PS to pump sewer flows to Eagleson Rd. from where a new gravity sewer will convey the flows to the Lynwood Collector. The next screening was conducted to determine possible sewer corridors available for the sewer trunks and forcemains associated with the servicing strategies based on location, construction, risks and social/environmental impacts. Several corridors were identified common for all the strategies including infrastructure works in the core of the WUC. Once the preferred corridors were identified, seven specific options were formulated. The evaluation and ranking of the servicing options were conducted as per categories and criteria previously applied to different City servicing master plans. The evaluation focused mainly on the short-term and long-term reliability, and on the capital costs and the life-cycle cost analysis of the options. Overall, Option 1B scored the highest, and thus, considered the preferred solution for the WUC sanitary sewer servicing plan. This option comprises the following infrastructure components including the time line for their completion: 1. Construction of 1200 mm dia. 2100 m long North Kanata Trunk – Phase 2 from March PS to the end of Phase 1 of North Kanata Trunk including connection of Marchwood trunk to allow gravity flow and bypassing March PS. To be completed by 2014. 2. March PS upgrades (conversion into a low lifting station) including abandonment of the existing forcemain along March Road to be completed by 2014. 3. Replacement and lowering (to allow for future elimination of Watts Creek sewer siphon) of 1650 mm dia. 1230 m long Tri-Township Collector between Glen Cairn Trunk and the end of Phase 1 of North Kanata Trunk to be completed between 2014 – 2017. 4. Signature Ridge PS upgrades Phase 1 (overflow/wet well) to be completed by 2013 and Phase 2 (twining of forcemain) by 2017 to be coordinated with the proposed Campeau Drive expansion. 5. New Kanata West PS (KW PS) including forcemains by 2016 6. Fernbank Trunk sewer to Hazeldean PS to be completed by 2013. 7. New gravity trunk sewer – Interceptor Sewer, and Interceptor Chamber – from the Stittsville / new Fernbank Trunk sewers to KW PS (approximately 3040m long) by 2021 The advantages provided by this option compared to the other options are:  It is ready to be implemented, thus, no significant delays for the developments in the WUC are anticipated;  By building the new interceptor sewer between Stittsville and new Fernbank Trunk sewers and Kanata West PS will allow to divert sewer flows from Hazeldean PS and will create a better control over the operation of the sewer flows and provide robustness to the system and reliability during pump failure occurrences and extreme wet weather events.  There is no need for capacity upgrade at Hazeldean PS or for the construction of a third forcemain up until 2060;  Low capital cost and life-cycle cost.

WUC- Wastewater Collection System FINAL Master Servicing Plan - Study Report JULY, 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page -65

The estimated costs for Option 1B (which includes a 50% mark-up to contingency and engineering) is $58,880,000.00 and including upgrades to the Acres Rd. PS and to the Watt’s Creek overflow chamber the estimated cost is $62,860,000.00. During this review of the WUC wastewater system, a range of issues with the Acres Road PS were uncovered that warrant a more detailed assessment to identify the full scope of operational improvements and upgrades, in addition to capacity upgrades to service future growth. The detailed assessment of the Acres Road PS would need to investigate the following:  Modifications to the flume and overflow structure located upstream of the Acres Road PS along the Watts Creek Relief Sewer;  Modifications to the SCADA system to enable reliable monitoring of inflows  Recommendations concerning the timing of changing over the existing pumps; the addition of pumps required for growth; and any upgrades required in the emergency back-up power generators. Moreover, additional issues have been identified that warrant consideration when the City proceeds with the imminent design assignments for the Kanata West PS and Fernbank Trunk Sewer. The preferred location and configuration of the Kanata West PS may warrant adjustment due to a number of issues related to the future widening of Maple Grove Road in the vicinity of the PS. The conceptual designs of the Fernbank Trunk Sewer and associated chambers at the inlet to the Hazeldean PS that had been developed in the Fernbank MSS and the Glen Cairn Flood Investigation should be coordinated and adjusted to be consistent with recommendations of this study.

A. Previous Relevant Studies

1.A.1 Village of Richmond Water and Sanitary Master Servicing Study and Class Environmental Assessment Phases 1, 2, 3 & 4 (draft dated May 2010)

Description This Master Servicing Study (MSS) was prepared by Stantec as part of the Class Environmental Assessment for the water and sanitary servicing for the village of Richmond, located within the City of Ottawa. The purpose of the MSS was to provide recommendations for the long term servicing requirements for existing and future potential development within the entire village boundary. A Schedule “C” Class EA was conducted for both the water and sanitary servicing components. During Phase 1 & 2 of the Class EA process, an evaluation of several alternative servicing solutions was undertaken for water and sanitary servicing. During phase 3 of the EA process, an evaluation of several design concepts alternative for the preferred solutions was carried out for water and sanitary servicing. The summaries of the preferred alternatives for each phase are presented in this memorandum.

Phase 2: Wastewater Servicing Preferred Sanitary Servicing Solution The recommended solution for servicing the entire village is to expand the existing collection system and continue to pump the wastewater to the City’s central wastewater treatment facility (ROPEC). This solution includes options A-D (Figures 5-10 to 5-13 in Stantec’s draft report, May 2010) as briefly described below.

 Connection to Central Collection Systems – Existing, infill and future growth  Option A – Upgrade and expand Richmond PS, twin existing 500mm diam. forcemain with a 900mm diam. forcemain.  Option B – Upgrade and expand Richmond PS, twin existing 500mm diam. forcemain with a 500mm diam. forcemain and construct a new booster station on the existing 500mm diam. forcemain.  Option C – Upgrade and expand Richmond PS, abandon existing 500mm forcemain and construct two new 600mm diam. forcemains.  Option D – Abandon the existing Richmond PS facility and construct a new PS, biofilter and two new 600 mm F/M

Phase 3: Wastewater Servicing Design Concept Preferred Sanitary Servicing Solution Design Concept

WUC- Wastewater Collection System Appendix A Master Servicing Plan – Study Report May 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page 2

Wastewater servicing for the village of Richmond will be provided by the existing Richmond Pump Station which will be upgraded to accommodate all planned development within the Village. The preferred solution design concept consists of the following: . Upgrade/ expand the existing Richmond pump station; . Retain the existing 500mm diam. forcemain, but replace the segment that has broken in the past for increased reliability; and, . Construct a second 600mm diam. forcemain.

The costs of the upgrades to the gravity collection system and the pump station are estimated to be $23 M.

1.A.2 Village of Carp Class Environmental Assessment for Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Upgrade / Expansion (dated May 2009)

Description The purpose of this study was to select the preferred water and sanitary servicing upgrades / expansions required to support the projected growth within the Village of Crap as identified in the 2004 Community Development Plan. The study also includes improvements required to provide water service to the Carp Airport development. The project is being undertaken following Schedule B of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Report. Land Use The existing village population is approximately 1600 people. It is projected that the full build-out of the village will occur by 2033 and the population will grow to 3,574 people and a total of 6.42ha of ICI development will exist in the village (excluding the Carp airport development). The Approved Draft Plan of Subdivision for the Carp Airport lands includes 329 dwelling units with a corresponding population of 1,119 people and 18.6ha of business park commercial area. Sanitary Servicing The projected growth in the village according to the Community Development Plan (CDP) will result in an increase in sanitary flows in the collection and pumping systems. The current capacity of these systems are sufficient to handle a portion of the projected increased flows. The preferred solution to the Carp wastewater system includes emergency overflows at both sewage pumping stations, twinning existing forcemains, upgrading existing pumps and undersized sewers including a section of Hines Road trunk sewer in Kanata. The following table (Table 3-7 of this study report) summarizes the preferred wastewater infrastructure upgrades / expansions to accommodate the full development expected in the Village:

Upgrade the Lynwood Collector d/s of the Acres forcemain connection (1km-2100mm dia.)

Conclusion Existing Conditions Under existing conditions the sanitary trunk sewer system outside of the greenbelt is generally adequate with sufficient capacity available. However, the following sections of the sewer were identified as undersized: . Tri-Township Collector – From the junction of the March Ridge Trunk and Glen Cairn Trunk to the future connection of North Kanata Trunk . Cumberland Collector – From Wilson Avenue to the junction with the Orleans- Cumberland Collector The status of the sanitary pumping stations was analyzed as well. Under existing conditions, the following two stations were found to be undersized: . Richmond Pumping Station . Hemlock Pumping Station Future Growth Two modeling scenarios were considered in analyzing the future build-out level growth within the current urban boundary: . Existing and Future Development under Existing Monitored Parameters . Future Development under Design Parameters with Existing Development using Monitored Parameters In addition to the constraints identified under existing conditions, the following section were also identified as constraints warranting further analysis: . Tri-Township Collector (Upstream of the North Kanata Trunk Junction) . Conroy Road Collector . Green creek Collector (South) Development Scenarios

WUC- Wastewater Collection System Appendix A Master Servicing Plan – Study Report May 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page 5

Development Scenarios for both intensification and expansion type growth were analyzed up until 2061:

 Scenario 1 – Intensification within the Urban Boundary  This may not be the growth strategy to pursue.

 Scenario 2 & 3 – Expansion Outside of the Urban Boundary  In short-term, the expansion beyond the urban boundary would be accommodated.  In long-term, major upgrades to the existing collection system and construction of a new east-west trunk in the south-end of the City and a new trunk sewer in the east end of the City would be required.  Either a second treatment plant may be necessary or growth would be restricted.

1.A.4 Signature Ridge Pump Station Feasibility Study Report (dated October 2006)

Description This report detailed the feasibility analysis for increasing the capacity of the Signature Ridge Pumping Station (SRPS) based on projected development demands in the community. Eight (8) alternatives were identified and assessed according to a standard evaluation criterion under four general topics: the natural environment, the caring and healthy community, technical considerations and the economy.

Preferred alternative To provide for the predicted flows from the development area, the existing station will require expansion beyond its current capacity of 140L/s up to 300L/s. The following components form part of the preferred option to meet the demands predicted based on future development needs: . Provide a second wet well and pumps; . Expand remote control building; . Provide a second force main; . Reconfigure sewers outside of wet well; . Modify surface portion of wet well or remove. Also, the following downstream infrastructure upgrades are required: . Rehabilitate 1300m of Tri-Township Collector; . The second phase of the proposed north Kanata and conversion of the March Pump Station to a low lift station; and . 120m of Penfield sewer providing additional capacity. The estimated total cost of this alternative is $16,660,000.

1.A.5 Kanata West Master Servicing Study, Volume 1 of 2 (date June 16, 2006)

Description The Kanata West Master Servicing Study serves as an update to the 2002 Concept Plan prepared by FoTenn Consulting. The Objective of this study is to provide a macro level servicing plan for the KWCP (Kanata West Concept Plan), identifying an internal servicing scheme which takes into account changes in land uses and development densities.

Sanitary Servicing Study Recommendations The preferred wastewater servicing plan for the Kanata West area provides a flexible cost effective servicing scheme allowing for phased construction of the new wastewater infrastructure. This is achieved by making use of residual capacity and maximizing the potential existing infrastructure. The ultimate servicing scenario increases the efficiency of the City’s overall wastewater system by minimizing the number of new pumping stations and facilitating the ultimate decommissioning of up to eight existing public and private pumping stations and one siphon. The major features of this plan (illustrated on Drawing S-1 of the Kanata West Master Servicing Study Report) are the following: . An upgraded Signature Ridge Pumping Station (SRPS) to service all the KWCP lands north of the Queensway, the existing urban area north of the Queensway currently proposed to drain to the SRPS, and the Broughton/Richardson Interstitial lands. . A single new pumping station and forcemain located south of Maple Grove Road and west of the Carp River. The Signature Ridge Pumping Station is currently not equipped with catastrophic failure in the form a gravity overflow. A hydraulic analysis of the proposed sewer system demonstrated that catastrophic protection can be provided by gravity. The new pumping station ultimately services all the KWCP south of Highway 417, the lands south of the 417 originally tributary to the SRPS, and the lands in the Village of Stittsville, along Hazeldean Road which are currently unserviceable by gravity to the Stittsville Sanitary Sewer System. This new PS is also designed to accommodate the decommissioning of up to eight small public and private pumping stations along Hazeldean Road without deepening the Kanata West system (refer to Figure 4.2-1, 4.2-3 and 4.2-4. in Appendix 4.3 of this report for more details).

1.A.6 North Kanata Sanitary Sewage Infrastructure Upgrade Study, Functional Design Report (Dated August 2001)

Description The main trunk wastewater collection system in North Kanata had no longer capacity to accommodate future growth projected for the community. Furthermore, much of the infrastructure has been subject to corrosion or is otherwise in need of repair or replacement. The main objectives of this study were as follows:  Review the alternatives for upgrading the wastewater collection system for the North Kanata area in consideration of updated growth projections and current system conditions;

WUC- Wastewater Collection System Appendix A Master Servicing Plan – Study Report May 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page 7

 Revise the Master Plan recommendations as required;  Prepare a preliminary odor and corrosion control plan;  Meet the Phase 1 and 2 requirements of the provincial Class Environmental Assessment process for municipal projects;  Address preliminary Federal Environmental Assessment requirements; and  Develop the preferred solution to meet the needs of the study area conveying flows to 2021 based on current estimates.

Preferred Solution The following lists the main components required to meet the service needs in the Study area. The Study concluded that the required infrastructure should be designed to convey build-out flows.  Construct an 1800mm dia. sewer 1000m long from tr01000 to wa03000 to provide the capacity to meet the projected flows. Connect existing Tri-Township Collector to the NKT at tr01000 and abandon the downstream section of the Tri-Township Collector. (this work has been completed)  Construct the first 200m of 1200mm dia. NKT on Legget Drive. This is required to accommodate the 2001 upgrade of Legget Drive. The infrastructure connecting the Marchwood Trunk, forcemain and overflow must be constructed at the same time. (this work has been completed)  Construct the NKT from Legget Drive to tr01000 which crosses under Carling Avenue to coincide with the upgrade of the Kizell Drain culvert, to meet projected flows at the March Pumping Station. At the same time convert the station to a low lift and finalize connections to the NKT. The March Forcemain and March Road Trunk would then be abandoned. Along the new NKT a gravel access road would be constructed.  The Odor and Corrosion Plan is a combination of O&M modifications and monitoring of the sewers in the WUC. As the effect of the Glen Cairn Biofilter is still under investigation, it must be noted that this plan is preliminary in nature and revaluated as data continues to be collected. As such, the plan recommends further monitoring at strategic locations in the WUC, completion of a system wide OCC plan, continued swabbing of forcemains, modify pumping rates to flush forcemains, chemical addition at the Carp Pumping Station, and the installation of a jumper at the March Ridge Siphon.  The Tri-Township Collector (tr01000 to tr02200) will require rehabilitation (relining).  In addition to these sewers, a number of maintenance items are required at the March Pumping Station and Watts Creek Siphon due to deterioration.

1.A.7 Master Sanitary Servicing Plan - Kanata Lakes, Broughton & Interstitial Lands

Description Stantec was retained to undertake a high level review of the suggested master sanitary servicing plan for the Broughton and Interstitial Lands. Observations were also made on the

WUC- Wastewater Collection System Appendix A Master Servicing Plan – Study Report May 2012 RVA 102174 City of Ottawa Page 8

impact of the development of these lands on downstream infrastructure including the Signature Ridge Pumping Station (SRPS), the Kanata North Lands and Kanata Lakes Sewer, as well as the Main Street and Penfield Sewer within the North Kanata Trunk Sewer system.

Conclusion Drainage Area Splits Due to topography of the area, servicing the entire area with a unique outlet towards the Kanata Lakes development area is not possible. A portion of the sanitary servicing area must be directed towards the Signature Ridge Pumping Station. Signature Ridge Pumping Station ▪ Upgrades to the SRPS beyond 300 L/s may not be necessary; ▪ On-going monitoring of flows and assessment of actual flow conditions should be an integral component of a staged upgrading plan for the SRPS ▪ The use of a second forcemain as a means of providing extra capacity should be evaluated. Main Street/Penfield Drive Sewer

Isolated capacity constraints were identified in the Penfield Drive Sewer under future development conditions, however following further assessment it was found that these constraints do not result in the generation of an elevated hydraulic grade line that would lead to basement flooding concerns.

Kanata Lakes Trunk Results of the hydraulic modeling of the system show that allocation of 140 L/s of the Interstitial Lands slated flows from the SRPS to the Kanata Lakes Sewer do not result in surcharging of this trunk sewer. Overall North Kanata Servicing Downstream capacity constraints were found to be consistent with the findings of previous studies under full build-out conditions and no additional areas are determined to be affected. Local Servicing A preliminary review of the sewer profiles and existing topographies suggested that the local sewers within the study area have sufficient capacity to convey the peak design flows. The HGL in the sanitary trunk sewer along Terry fox Drive shows that the HGL under emergency overflow conditions at the SPRS would surcharge to the ground at several locations along Terry Fox Drive. Given expected HGL’s and assuming typical basement depths and the appropriate freeboard, basements should not be permitted where the ground elevation is below 0.97 m. Regardless, it is recommended that the City direct the developers to investigate alternative scenarios which would mitigate the risk of surface spills and/ or basement flooding in the area.

1.A.8 Fernbank Community Design Plan - Master Servicing Study

Description To provide wastewater service to the Fernbank CDP lands, a sewer capacity analysis and pump station evaluation was completed. The analysis considers background growth and planned wastewater modifications from the 2009 Draft Infrastructure Master Plan. The purpose of the evaluation was to: . Identify where capacity constraints exist within the sewershed . Recommend feasible design solutions where constraints exist . Project timelines to implement municipal wastewater upgrades

Summary and Recommendations  The North Kanata Trunk has adequate capacity to build-out  The Tri-Township Collector is undersized for both existing and future design flows; this sewer needs to be upgraded given the development pressure throughout the west urban community.  The Glen Cairn Trunk has adequate capacity to build-out  Hazeldean pump station upgrades  The planned third submersible pump will be required by 2012.  A subsequent capacity upgrade will be required by 2016 to replace four pump and impeller units  Actual flow monitoring at the station is recommended to determine when the upgrades are required  An overflow can be constructed at the Hazeldean Pump Station into Cell 1 of Monahan Constructed Wetlands for protection of homes should a catastrophic failure occur at the pump station.  When Kanata West Pump Station comes online, wastewater from both Kanata West and a portion of the Stittsville area near Hazeldean Road will be routed away from the Hazeldean pumping station  The south Glen Cairn Trunk has adequate capacity to build-out.  An alternative analysis of the internal Fernbank wastewater system found that conveyance of all sanitary drainage to the Hazeldean Pump Station was the preferred solution.  The Fernbank CDP lands will be entirely serviced using free-flow gravity sewers. A new trunk sewer within the Hydro One easement will provide a wastewater outlet that discharges into the Hazeldean Pumping Station.

1.0 Introduction & Objective

The West Urban Community (WUC) sanitary sewer system consists of a system of gravity sewers, pumps and forcemains all converging at a single pumping station at Acres Road. The WUC collection system services the communities of Carp, Kanata, Stittsville, Munster, Richmond and Bells Corners (see Figure 1-1). The infrastructure needs in Kanata and Stittsville were developed in separate master servicing studies, prepared by the respective proponents. Although the infrastructure needed to service the growth areas is feasible, it has not been evaluated in conjunction with the existing infrastructure and planned infrastructure upgrades in the WUC, which may provide opportunities to improve the system as a whole. In addition, there have been a number of overflows and flooding incidents at the wastewater pumping stations in the WUC. As the planned upgrades in the WUC rely heavily on the expansion of existing pump stations and the construction of a new pump station, the need exists to develop a servicing strategy for the WUC that minimizes, as much as possible, the risk to public safety and health. The objectives of this assignment were to revise and update the existing dynamic sanitary sewer modeling tool and assess the existing infrastructure within the WUC with the goal of facilitating the development of an ultimate servicing strategy for the WUC.

The capacity assessment for this assignment was completed using the dynamic model tool developed by Stantec (August, 2010) as part of the City of Ottawa’s Wastewater Collection System Dynamic Model assignment. The inputs to this network assessment tool were revised and updated based on City of Ottawa updated sanitary catchments to represent existing (2010), buildout (2031), and beyond buildout (2060) loading scenarios.

This report provides background information on the general approach to the original modeling tool developed by Stantec in 2010, discussions regarding adjustments or updates made to the modeling approach, as well as present the various scenarios considered and identifies existing network constraints generated based on this assignment.

2.0 Model Development Background

The dynamic model developed for this WUC assessment is an update to the model developed by Stantec for the City of Ottawa’s Wastewater Collection System Dynamic Model assignment (August, 2010). The 2010 model was prepared using PCSWMM 2010 Standard and was developed by expanding on the steady state ‘trunk sewer’ model prepared by Stantec as part of the Infrastructure Master Plan Update (May, 2009). These models were built based on wastewater infrastructure details taken from the City’s GIS databases and operation and maintenance (O&M) manuals in the case of pump stations.

The following subsections provide summaries of how the initial dynamic model was developed. The reader is directed to the Wastewater Collection System Dynamic Model – WEST (Stantec, August 2010) report for further details and discussion on how the original modeling tool was developed and calibrated, as well as to view complete calibration and model scenario results.

Note that Section 3.0 of this report will present the updates made to the model, as well as any modifications to the approaches used to represent the WUC sanitary network.

2.1 DEVELOPMENT DETAILS

2.1.1 Pump Stations

Operations information for the 22 pump stations modeled was obtained from the Pumping Station Pump Capacity Assessment (Stantec, September 2009). Wet well dimensions were used to develop wet-well storage relationships, which were input into the model. Pump curves, float levels, pump sequencing and forcemains details were also input into the dynamic model to simulate the system response at each of the following pumping stations:

• Acres Road • Briarridge • Carp • Crystal Beach 1 • Cedarow • CWM Carp • Donald B. Munro • Echowoods • Fairwinds • Friendly • Fringewood • Hazeldean • Hopeside • Jackson Trails • John Street • Joseph Circle • March • Munster 1 2 • Munster 2 2 • Richmond • Signature Ridge • Stittsville

1 The Crystal Beach Pump Station is only operational during extreme wet weather events. It is included in the wet weather flow simulations; however it is omitted from the dry weather flow simulation. The Crystal Beach Pump Station

kma v:\01-634\active\1634_01026_wuc_wastewater_analysis\planning\report\final\may 2012 rev\rpt_wucww_rev may 2012.docx 2.1 WEST URBAN COMMUNITY (WUC) WASTEWATER COLLECTION MODEL DEVELOPMENT & SYSTEM CAPACITY ASSESSMENT Model Development Background May 11, 2012

is only operational when the diversion gate at manhole MHSA01767 is closed and flows are redirected from the West Nepean Collector during extreme wet weather events.

2 The Munster 1 & Munster 2 Pump Stations are only operational during the dry weather simulation. These pump stations are removed from the wet weather simulations as the flows are diverted to a local storage facility during extreme wet weather events.

2.1.2 Flow Diversions/Control Structures

There is one (1) flow diversion structure in the WUC collection system and it is located downstream of the Signature Ridge Pumping Station. The diversion structure is designed to restrict the flow into the Kanata Lakes Trunk to 140L/s. To model the diversion structure, a control was set that restricts the flow into the downstream Kanata Lakes Trunk to a maximum of 140L/s. In addition, a side weir was added to initially direct all flows to the Kanata Lakes Trunk until the depth of flow in the sewer reaches the weir sill elevation at which time flow will be allowed to flow to the Main Street/Penfield Drive sewers.

2.2 MODEL CALIBRATION

The model was initially calibrated by applying City of Ottawa generated water consumption rates and diurnal patterns specific to the west-end for the current system configuration as supplied by the City of Ottawa’s engineering and planning groups. At each step of the model calibration process, the project’s Technical Advisory Committee (which included staff from various City departments) provided feedback and direction on the calibration process and assessment method.

The model was loaded with the residential sanitary rate, which was applied to the population totals within each of the sub-catchments, to establish the average dry weather flow (DWF) within the individual sub-catchments. The weekday and weekend water consumption patterns were applied to the average DWF to simulate the varying diurnal DWF response within the study area. The consumption rate used to simulate the current wastewater generation was 200L/person/day.

PCSWMM does not allow the user to apply multiple average flows and diurnal patterns to the same manhole. This functionality would be useful to more accurately simulate the residential responses, and the institutional, commercial, and industrial (ICI) responses within each of the sub-catchments. Alternatively, if an ICI pattern were provided, a combined pattern and average flow could be generated by pro-rating the percentage of ICI and residential area within a sub- catchment; however, the non-coincident peaking of residential and ICI flows would create a dampened pattern. Given the limitations in the model’s capabilities and in the data provided, it was decided that the relatively limited ICI contributions would not be modeled separately, but rather would be accounted for in the GWI contributions as a constant inflow.

2.2 kma v:\01-634\active\1634_01026_wuc_wastewater_analysis\planning\report\final\may 2012 rev\rpt_wucww_rev may 2012.docx WEST URBAN COMMUNITY (WUC) WASTEWATER COLLECTION MODEL DEVELOPMENT & SYSTEM CAPACITY ASSESSMENT Model Development Background May 11, 2012

Running the model with the City of Ottawa provided water consumption rate and diurnal patterns provided preliminary results at all of the monitoring locations throughout the study area. The modeled results were compared to the monitored results and the difference in the average flows was assumed to account for the ground water infiltration (GWI). The GWI flow was divided by the total number of dwellings in the tributary area to establish a GWI rate per lateral, which was multiplied by the number of dwellings within the individual sub-catchments.

To calibrate the wet weather model response the dry weather scenario model was used and a wet weather flow (WWF) pattern applied. The pattern was developed by subtracting the monitored DWF response from the monitored response during a rainfall event to estimate the WWF. The WWF pattern was divided by the total number of dwellings in the tributary area to establish a unitless WWF pattern per lateral, which was multiplied by the number of dwellings within the individual sub-catchments.

2.2.1 Flow Generation

Flow monitoring records from 2004-2009 were provided from the City for seven (7) monitoring locations within the study area:

• Acres Road Flume

• Upstream of the Hazeldean Pump Station

• Upstream of the March Pump Station

• Upstream of the Signature Ridge Pump Station

• Upstream of the Stittsville Pump Station

• Upstream of the Richmond Pump Station

• Upstream of the Carp Pump Station

The City provided Stantec with monitoring data for dry weather periods, as well as for the two (2) wet weather calibration events: September 9, 2004 and January 8, 2008. Level data within the wet wells at each of the pump stations listed above was also provided for these events.

2.2.2 Average Dry Weather Flow & Patterns

Periods of consistent dry weather flow from between 2004-2009 were analyzed to obtain the average dry weather flow rates at all 7 monitoring locations. The average dry weather flow values were used to approximate the GWI and to complete the dry weather calibration. Figure 2.1 is provided as an example of this analysis and shows the results from the Hazeldean pump Station.

The City of Ottawa’s diurnal pattern was applied and the modeled results compared to the monitored data to develop catchment specific diurnal patterns upstream of the flow monitoring sites. This was done by applying corrective factors to the peaks of the original City of Ottawa pattern. The corrective factors were approximated by dividing the target peak factors (from monitoring) by the preliminary modeled peak factors.

2.2.2.2 Average Dry Weather Flow – Residential Contribution

The average residential DWF was estimated using the populations in the catchments and an average DWF rate of 200L/person/day. The rate is based on residential water usage records in the Kanata area and was provided by the City for use in the model.

2.2.2.3 Groundwater Infiltration (GWI)

The model was run using the diurnal patterns, the average DWF rates, and the GWI estimated contributions. These GWI contributions were estimated to be the difference between the monitored average DWF (see Figure 2.5 ) and the model generated average dry weather flow. In the model, the GWI is represented on a flow per service connection basis. This approach assumes that the total number of water meters is representative of the total number of service connections. A GWI rate per lateral was calculated by dividing the total GWI rate by the total water meter count in the monitored catchment area and applied to the individual sub- catchments.

2.2.2.4 Industrial, Commercial and Institutional (ICI) Contributions

The average DWF from the ICI areas was estimated using the number of employees in the catchments and an average DWF rate of 85L/employee/day. The rate is based on employment water usage records outside of the Greenbelt and was provided by the City for use in the model.

The Hazeldean area is one of the more established, or built out, areas within the WUC. Using the average dry weather flow rate of 85L/employee/day provided by the City for ICI lands outside of the Greenbelt, the average ICI DWF within the Hazeldean catchment was estimated to be 11L/s, and represents 4% of the total calculated average DWF of 277L/s at this location. Given the limitations in the model’s capabilities, it was decided that the relatively limited ICI contributions would not be modeled separately, but rather would be accounted for in the GWI contributions as a constant baseflow.

2.2.3 Wet Weather Flow

The model was calibrated for two significant wet weather events: the rainfall event of September 9, 2004 and the snowmelt event of January 8, 2008. Monitoring records for the 7 flow monitoring locations were provided by the City for both wet weather events. Removing the monitored dry weather flow contributions from the monitored wet weather flow provides an estimate of the wet weather infiltration/inflow (I/I) contribution. Figure 2.6 provides an example of this wet weather I/I separation procedure.

Figure 2.6 Hazeldean Wet Weather I/I Separation (September 9, 2004 Event)

The approach taken to distribute the wet weather infiltration was similar to that used for the GWI; whereby a unit wet weather I/I hydrograph was generated based on the number of service connections within the catchment. This was done by dividing the wet weather I/I hydrograph by the respective total number of water meters within each of the 7 flow monitoring catchments (see Figure 2.7 ). The unitless hydrograph was then applied to the appropriate catchment and was multiplied by a scaling factor, representing the number of laterals within the sub-catchment.

2.3 CALIBRATION RESULTS

2.3.1 Dry Weather Flow Calibration results

Following the calibration efforts, a comparison of the modeled and monitored flow results at all 7 calibration locations was completed. The modeled average DWF flows were found to be within 1.4% to 13.2% of the monitored values and with the exception of Acres Road the peak DWF flows within 0.3% to 19.4% of the monitored values. The modeled DWF volumes were found to be within 1.5% to 12.8% of the monitored values. Tables 2-1 and 2-2 provide a summary of the dry weather calibration results. In review of the calibration results, the project team considered the level of accuracy obtained based on the level of effort applied within an acceptable range for a hydraulic model to be used as a long term planning tool.

2.4 GENERAL DISCUSSION

The previous subsections provided a summary of how the original dynamic model was developed. The majority of the discussion and results presented is from the Wastewater Collection System Dynamic Model – WEST (Stantec, August 2010) report. Effort has been taken to condense the content of the August 2010 model development report to the most pertinent information relevant to the WUC Wastewater Collection Model Development & System Capacity Assessment assignment.

3.0 WUC Model Development

The WUC system capacity assessment task was completed by updating the existing City of Ottawa PCSWMM model and running it under various loading scenarios. The model updates were based on directions and updated GIS data provided by the City.

3.1 MODELLING APPROACH MODIFICATIONS

Certain modifications were made to the model loading approach. The ultimate purpose of all of the modifications was to generate a model loaded with the data of the highest levels of confidence that would provide the results needed.

3.1.1 Switch to Area based Inflow & Infiltration (I/I) Loading

The original PCSWMM model developed for the City was loaded on a per lateral basis for ground water and wet weather infiltration (GWI & WWI). During the initial data manipulation and initial model runs, both lateral and net area based loading approaches were considered. The lateral based approach employs a distribution of flows based on the number of laterals in a particular catchment. The area based loading approach is a broader approach that considers the gross area of a particular catchment and the application of uniform loading across the entire catchment area.

Under existing conditions runs, the model findings tracked well, however under buildout conditions (2031) there were often large discrepancies in the flow generation. The reasoning behind this was found to be that the densities of the catchments with regards to laterals/area varied throughout the study area. Furthermore, the current City of Ottawa Sewer Design Guidelines provides GWI and WWI design rates on an area basis. To minimize the risk of confusion regarding which rates are used, and also to simplify the assessment, the loading approach for GWI and WWI was switched to an area based approach.

3.1.2 Pump Station Operation Simplification

The pump stations located throughout the WUC were originally created by using wet well, pump operation characteristics, and forcemain details. The goal was to set up the pump stations with as much detail as possible such that they would function as their respective designs specified.

For the WUC system assessment, this approach was greatly simplified such that pump stations are setup as “ideal” stations. Essentially, the stations pass the inflow they see downstream, disregarding how the station would operate in actuality. This was done for two reasons:

• The pump station behavior in the original model was at times inaccurate due to the required level of detail needed to properly represent pump stations. Many of the pump

kma v:\01-634\active\1634_01026_wuc_wastewater_analysis\planning\report\final\may 2012 rev\rpt_wucww_rev may 2012.docx 3.1 WEST URBAN COMMUNITY (WUC) WASTEWATER COLLECTION MODEL DEVELOPMENT & SYSTEM CAPACITY ASSESSMENT WUC Model Development May 11, 2012

stations contained within the WUC contain relatively long forcemains with many gradient transitions. There are also various valves located along these forcemains. Although effort was spent imputing these details in the original model, the simulation results often did not track the equivalent design sheet findings.

• The purpose of the WUC system capacity assessment is to revise the ultimate servicing strategy for the entire WUC. Conceptually, this would require all intermediate pump stations to be allowed to convey their inflow downstream to the receiving infrastructure, as all pump stations would be assumed to have sufficient capacity to do so. Setting the model up in this manner allows the identification of undersized pump stations by comparing their existing/future capacities against the simulated existing/future flows. This also allows ultimate bottlenecks to be identified in the wastewater collection system as flows would not be “held up” by undersized pump stations.

3.1.3 Signature Ridge, Kanata West, and Future ICI Loading Approach

The original model accounted for ICI contributions by applying a greater amount of GWI. This was done due to the limited amount of ICI generation in the majority of the subcatchments. While reviewing the model results at the Signature Ridge pump station, Kanata West pump station, and under future conditions, it became evident that flows were being under- approximated using this approach. To correct for this, secondary “ICI generation” nodes were introduced for these areas. These nodes are easily identified in the model as they have been given the prefix “ICI” for existing ICI generation or “FUT_ICI” for future ICI generation.

This modification to the ICI load generation approach was important to introduce specifically to the Signature Ridge and Kanata West areas as these areas are slated to develop primarily as ICI lands. As such the simplified approach taken for the majority of the remainder of the WUC study area was not as appropriate for these areas.

3.2 DATA BASE UPDATES

GIS catchment loading data updates were provided by the City for 2010 and 2031 scenarios. These were in turn used to associate loads to the dynamic model. The City also provided “beyond buildout” catchments projected outside of the existing WUC boundaries to represent potential growth up until the year 2060.

3.2.1 2010 & 2031 WUC Database Summary

Updates to the catchment loading properties were provided at the beginning of the WUC system capacity assessment. These updates were made to ensure the model was loaded with the most accurate and appropriate data. Tables 3.1 and 3.2 are provided as a summary of the data used to load the hydraulic model. Figure 3-1 shows the boundaries of each of the catchments referenced in the tables below.

3.2.2 2060 WUC Growth Projections

This assessment also considered growth beyond “buildout” (2031) to the year 2060. Projections for this time frame were provided by the City for four (4) large clusters within the WUC study area (see Figure 3-2 & Table 3.3). The projections provided are very approximate in nature as it is admittedly challenging to project how, as well as what type of, growth will occur so far in to the future. The contributions from these areas were considered when assessing the existing infrastructure network and establishing 2031/2060 servicing alternative strategies.

4.0 Loading Parameters & Scenarios Selection

4.1 LOADING PARAMETER SELECTION & GENERATION

In collaboration with the City, the project team selected loading parameter combination strategies, with the goal of providing the most appropriate flow estimations. The dry weather flow parameters were maintained from the previous City of Ottawa’s Wastewater Collection System Dynamic Model assignment carried out by Stantec in 2010. The wet weather parameters where taken from the Jan 2008 wet weather event. The following sections describe the loading parameters and scenarios selection process in further detail.

4.1.1 Dry Weather Flow Generation Parameters

The model was loaded with the dry weather flow parameters using the same approach as described in Sections 2.2.2.2 and 2.2.2.4 of this report. Table 4.1 provides a summary of these rates which were based on City of Ottawa Sewer Design Guidelines as well as monitored values.

4.1.1.1 Groundwater Inflow/Infiltration (GWI) Rates

As discussed in Section 3.0 the loading approach for GWI rates was modified for the WUC assignment. These rates are now based on an area basis, and are provided in Table 4.2.

4.1.2 Wet Weather Flow Generation Parameters

The January 2008 wet weather event was selected for the wet weather flow parameters as the responses to it were more critical than that of the September 2004 event. The event response summaries for the pump stations where flow monitoring data was provided are show in Table 4.3 . The model was setup and run under various scenarios using a combination of January 2008 event and City of Ottawa Sewer Design Guideline rates.

The assessment of the existing infrastructure was based on the historical monitored responses to the extreme wet weather event of January 2008, as well as the current City of Ottawa Sewer Design Guidelines. The Sewer Design Guidelines are provided as constant rates though, and to apply them as such in the dynamic model would remove the benefit of using such a model. To accommodate both the dynamic nature of the model as well as the City Guideline based rates, design events were generated by pro-rating the monitored January 2008 event response rates (see Table 4.4) such that their peak I/I rates matched with the City of Ottawa Design Guideline rate of 0.28L/ha/s. This approach resulted in an increase, or a decrease, in the applied wet weather I/I rate depending on the location, as shown in Figures 4-1 through 4-7. It should be noted that the monitored dry weather groundwater based infiltration values were assumed constant and were based on flow monitoring data provided.

4.2 SCENARIO SELECTION

Following the technical advisory committee (TAC) meeting of November 2010, it was agreed that various flow generating scenarios would be considered in the model runs. These scenarios were to provide a “solution envelope” which would aid in establishing the sensitivity of the sanitary infrastructure. From these initial assessments, a preferred set of parameters were to be selected for further assessments.

Following this approach, a number of initial combinations of parameters were selected and evaluated:

Scenario 1

• Existing – Monitored Dry Weather Flow + January 2008 Wet Weather Response

• Future – City of Ottawa Sewer Design Guidelines (I/I - 0.28L/ha/s, Residential Generation - 350L/c/d, ICI Generation - 50,000L/ha/d)

Scenario 2

• Existing – Monitored Dry Weather Flow + January 2008 Wet Weather Response

4.6 kma v:\01-634\active\1634_01026_wuc_wastewater_analysis\planning\report\final\may 2012 rev\rpt_wucww_rev may 2012.docx WEST URBAN COMMUNITY (WUC) WASTEWATER COLLECTION MODEL DEVELOPMENT & SYSTEM CAPACITY ASSESSMENT Loading Parameters & Scenarios Selection May 11, 2012

• Future – Monitored Dry Weather Flow + January 2008 Wet Weather Response

Scenario 3

• Existing – Monitored Dry Weather Flow + January 2008 Wet Weather Response x 1.5

• Future – Monitored Dry Weather Flow + January 2008 Wet Weather Response x 1.5

5.0 Model Results – Existing Infrastructure

Detailed analysis of existing (2010) and buildout (2031) flow conditions were undertaken, and the results from the three scenarios were compared. The results of these three scenarios were tabulated for key locations and are provided in Tables 5-1a and 5-1b , as well as presented on Figure A-1 through A-6 found in Appendix A .

5.1 2010 & 2031 EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE DEFICIENCIES

Although there are limited deficiencies with the existing infrastructure, there are nonetheless a few locations that produce problematic results. These areas are visible in the figures presented in Appendix A.

5.1.1 Tri-Township Collector

Under all scenarios the Tri-Township Collector shows signs of capacity issues.

5.1.2 Signature Ridge & Kanata West

The infrastructure provided in the model draining to these pump stations was based on the design reports for these areas. There are various differences in the design flow generation rates between the reports and the approach taken in this assessment. The drainage areas upstream of these stations are highly ICI in nature and these generation rates can vary substantially. These differences account for the capacity issues identified under the 2031 scenarios. It should be noted that these difference do not result in elevated HGL results.

5.1.3 Stittsville Trunk

Under the 2031 scenarios capacity issues are identified along the Stittsville trunk. Under scenarios 1 and 2, these issues are very minimal and stretch one link of conduit. The issue is a little worse under scenario 3 loading conditions. There are no HGL issues apparent under any of the loading scenarios, and therefore the issues seen along this stretch of network are not deemed significant.

5.1.4 Richmond

Under the 2031 scenarios capacity issues are identified downstream of the industrial lands expected to develop to the south of the village and drain along King Street. The infrastructure in the model is based on the Richmond EA which used a significantly lower ICI generation rate than that used in this assessment. There are no HGL issues apparent under any of the loading scenarios, and therefore the issues seen along this stretch of network are not deemed significant.

This bottleneck results in an elevated hydraulic grade line that causes surface flooding downstream of the Watt’s Creek siphon. For the purposes of this assignment, this lost flow has been conveyed downstream such that the ultimate flows downstream of this problematic location are appropriate and representative.

5.2 2060 FLOW GENERATION

The 2060 growth areas provided by the City were assessed without being represented in the existing infrastructure conditions models. The project team decided upon this approach as the allocation of these catchments was a task that was deemed more appropriately combined with the optimization and generation of the WUC infrastructure scenarios. Nonetheless, the catchments were assessed and the flow generation characteristics were calculated as shown in Table 5-2.

5.3 PREFERRED SCENARIO SELECTION

During our project team meeting with City staff on April 20, 2011, a comparison of the scenario results showed that scenarios 1 & 3 produced comparable flows that were more conservative than those produced by scenario 2. As a result, scenario 2 has been screened out from further consideration.

Scenario 1 has been selected by the project team as the most appropriate loading scenario to carry though to the preferred servicing strategy task for the 2031/2060 conditions as it is consistent with current design practices and produces results similar to the upset limit condition results of scenario 3.

The development of the preferred servicing strategy was undertaken by the project team using the scenario 1 generation approach.

For Option 1B, the station capacity is increased from 760L/s to 1250L/s, and thus, the cost is updated to $11,385,000 as per Stantec’s West Urban Community Sanitary Sewer Servicing - Technical Memorandum (submitted May 2012). For the capital cost calculation we have considered an additional allowance under contingency which consists of: Engineering = 20.0% City staff (field) = 5% Contingency = 20.0% Project Management = 5% Total contingency and engineering = 50.0%
