SPRING VALLEY — Engineer Larry Good provided information about combined sewer overflows during a public hearing held prior to the Spring Valley City Council meeting on Monday. Most likely, it won’t likely be the last meeting to discuss the issue.

“We will most certainly be back to talk to the council,” Good said.

While the city has been working to separate its sanitary and storm sewers, there are still 9 points of overflow from the combined sewer system during periods of heavy rain. The wastewater treatment plant can handle a maximum of two million gallons of water per day of combined flow, and anything beyond that is bypassed to the aerated lagoon.
