摘要

The City of Richmond has nearly a thousand miles of aging sanitary sewer with many segments located near urban streams. Like many older cities, much of Richmond's larger sewers were laid along stream corridors in order to utilize existing topography to minimize sewer depths and reduce the need for pumping stations. When the sewers were originally installed, they were believed to be located a safe distance away from stream banks (parallel sewers) or below the active stream bed (sewer crossings). However, continued development and urbanization in City watersheds have contributed to the instability of many of the City's streams, which have widened and incised over the years. In some areas the horizontal and vertical changes in stream geometry have resulted in exposing once-buried sewers, increasing the risk of failure and discharge of pollutants to surface waters. Over the past several years, the City has had a handful of sewer failures at creek crossings that have required emergency repairs. These instances have been very costly for the City to address and have further polluted City streams that are already impaired. To protect water quality and address its infrastructure vulnerability along unstable urban stream corridors, the City has recently initiated a city-wide sewer creek crossing assessment program. The purpose of the program is to assess the condition of both the sanitary sewer system and the stream bed and banks in the vicinity of the crossings to determine the risk of failure and identify remedial actions for repairing sewer systems and stabilizing streams. The first phase of this program consisted of a desktop analysis using the City's GIS to identify creek crossing locations and perform field inspections for crossings with a higher risk of failure based upon existing topographic and historical information. The following criteria were used to assign risk values: 1. Primary criteria a. Depth of cover b. Length of sewer pipe in stream c. Percentage of sewer pipe in stream d. Pipe diameter e. Pipe material 2. Secondary criteria a. SSO history b. Service call history 3. Additional criteria a. Proximity to roads/easements b. Parcel type/ownership c. Surface cover Inspections of both sanitary infrastructure and stream stability were performed for all high-risk areas identified in the desktop analysis. Sanitary inspections consisted of topside assessments of shallow manholes and exposed pipe, pole cam video inspection of deep manholes, and pole cam video inspection of roughly 30 feet of upstream and downstream buried sewers. The assessments focused primarily on structural defects, indications of infiltration and inflow, and physical location of sewer infrastructure within/along streams. During the field investigation phase, 186 crossings were evaluated along 29 different streams, 158 manholes were inspected, and 160 sewers were inspected using a pole cam. The field investigation revealed that 20% of the crossings had exposed pipe and 60% of the exposed pipes were observed to have structural defects such as erosion of pipe supports, pipe cracks and fractures. Pole cam inspections revealed that just over half of the buried sewers had some type of structural defect and 55% were observed to have sediment and debris buildup in the pipe. Additionally, just over 50% of the manholes inspected were observed to have structural defects such as concrete spalling, loose/broken frames, and wall damage, and roughly 20% were observed to be impacted by channel erosion.
