<br />11. Springfield and Eugene rely on a combination of regional and local services for <br />the provision of wastewater services. Within each City, the local jurisdiction <br />provides collection of wastewater through a system of sanitary sewers and <br />pumping systems. These collection facilities connect to a regional system of <br />similar sewer collection facilities owned and operated by the Metropolitan <br />Wastewater Management Commission ("MWMC"), an entity formed under an <br />intergovernmental agreement created pursuant to ORS 190. Together, these <br />collection facilities (which exclude private laterals which convey wastewater from <br />individual residential or commercial/industrial connections) constitute the primary <br />collection system. <br /> <br />12. The primary collection system conveys wastewater to a treatment facilities system <br />owned and operated by MWMC. This system consists of an interconnected Water <br />Pollution Control Facility ("WPCF"), a biosolids facility, and a beneficial reuse <br />facility. <br /> <br />Policies <br /> <br />G.9 Wastewater conveyance and treatment shall be provided to meet the needs of <br />projected growth inside the UGB that are capable of complying with regulatory <br />requirements governing beneficial reuse or discharge of effluent and beneficial <br />reuse or disposal of residuals. <br /> <br />SUBSEQUENT FINDINGS AND POLICIES SHALL BE RENUMBERED <br />ACCORDINGLY WITHIN THIS CHAPTER <br /> <br />Chapter V Glossary <br /> <br />37. Public facility proiects: Public facility project lists and maps adopted as part of <br />the Metro Plan are defined as follows: <br /> <br />a. Water: Source, reservoirs, pump stations, and primary distribution <br />systems. Primary distribution systems are transmission lines 12 inches or <br />larger for Springfield Utility Board (SUB) and 24 inches or larger for <br />Eugene Water & Electric Board (EWEB). <br /> <br />b. Wastewater: Primary Collection System: Pump stations and wastewater <br />lines 24 inches or larger. <br /> <br />Treatment Facilities System: Water Pollution Control <br />Facility (WPCF) project, beneficial reuse project and <br />residuals project necessary to meet wastewater treatment <br />facilities system design capacities for average flow, peak <br />flow, biochemical oxygen demand and total suspended <br />solids so as to provide service within the urban growth <br /> <br />Appendix Ab Page6 <br />
