SLIDE 6 Introduction to the Village of Oak Lawn Sewer S ystem
- Oak Lawn incorporated in 1909
- Approx 55,000 Residents
- 8.5 Sq M iles
- Sanitary Sewers installed M id-
Century
- Separate Sewer Systems
- Pipes are mostly clay

SLIDE 7 Hydraulic M odeling and Flow M onitoring
Create a Sanitary Sewer M aster Plan—A Roadmap
– Comprehensive model of the entire system – Rainfall and flow data measured and integrated – Three Hydrograph Method

SLIDE 9 Hydraulic M odeling and Flow M onitoring
- Identify potential problem areas
- Prioritize use of limited funds
CSWEA-2014 Collection Systems Conference
SLIDE 10 Cleaning and T elevised Inspections
- Development of 2012 Program
- Use M aster Plan to identify two areas at most risk
– Clean and Inspect approximately 16,600 lf of pipe in projected
future problem areas
– Inspect approx 100 manholes – Time of Project –
8 working days
– Average 2,075 ft / day
– Analyze inspections and develop rehabilitation plan
CSWEA-2014 Collection Systems Conference
SLIDE 11 Cleaning of Sanitary Sewers and T elevised Inspections—Prioritization of Rehab
– Risk of collapse / sinkholes – M ajor structural damage – M ajor infiltration potential
– Some infiltration potential – Structural damage likely to degrade to major
damage
– M ineral deposits – Fine roots – Hairline cracks, small sags

SLIDE 26 Develop Plan for 2013 Rehabilitation
- Select rehabilitation methods to repair approx 10,000 ft of
pipe
– Options for pipe repair:
- pipe replacement
- slip lining
- CIPP
- Spot repairs
- Short liners
- Break in tap repairs (LCR)
- Lateral Grouting
CSWEA-2014 Collection Systems Conference
SLIDE 27 Develop Plan for 2013 Rehabilitation
- Select rehabilitation methods to rehab approx 50 manholes
– Options for manhole repair:
- Raising M anhole Lids
- Chimney Seals
- Chemical Grouting
- Cementitious Resurfacing
- Concrete Surfacing at M anhole/ Liner Interface
- Pipe Seals

SLIDE 34 Execute 2013 Rehabilitation
- Repair approx 10,000 ft of pipe and Rehab approx 50
manholes based on 2012 inspections results
- Clean and Inspect 10,000 additional ft of pipe and inspect
approx 100 additional manholes (two additional sewersheds)
- Provide unit cost rates that the Owner can use to authorize
rehab of newly inspected pipes and manholes
- Repair newly inspected pipes and manholes

2014 Rehabilitation Work
SLIDE 64 Creating a Sustainable Funding Source
- 2012-2013 work was funded by Build America Bonds
- The Village recognized the need for a sustainable funding
source
- Benchmarking against similar communities showed that a
reasonable sewer rate increase was warranted
- The funds from this increase are accounted for separately
in a fund allowing 1-2% of the system to be rehabilitated annually.
- Spend approx $1M per year
CSWEA-2014 Collection Systems Conference
SLIDE 65 Summary
- The Village of Oak Lawn has successfully initiated a
comprehensive annual sanitary sewer rehabilitation program that is effective and sustainable.
- The efficiency of the program increases with each year by
building upon specifications and improvements of prior years.
- T
- date, Oak Lawn has rehabilitated more than 20,000 linear
feet of pipe and 150 manholes, and is currently preparing for the next phase of rehab starting in Summer 2014.
SLIDE 66 Lessons Learned
- Emphasize the importance of the contractor walking the site
- Hold a mandatory Pre-bid.
- Communicate early and often with homeowners
- Use LCR in combination with short liners
- Have a protocol set up for resident issues
