Many municipalities in Ontario continue to grow at a rapid pace and a deeper understanding of wastewater system capacity is needed to accommodate growth and a changing climate. This webinar will focus on two programs that are designed to help municipalities manage finite wastewater system capacity and both programs have started to gain wider implementation across southern Ontario. First, new subdivision (I/I) prevention promotes engineering best practices for new developments and Civica will focus on innovative flow monitoring techniques to prevent current and future I/I. Second, a developer-led I/I reduction program will be presented, which takes a “net-benefit” approach to create system capacity through I/I reduction.

OUTLINE:
• Definition of Problem
• Determining System Capacity
• How to Get Started for New Developments
• Options Available if Capacity is a Concern
• Case Studies/Examples
• Lessons Learned from Ongoing Programs
• Summary
• Q&A

Panelists

EDWARD GRAHAM:
PRESIDENT & CEO - CIVICA

Edward has 30 years of Municipal Water Resources and software engineering experience, focusing on wastewater and stormwater drainage infrastructure. His experience includes drainage system capacity management master planning, program development, and specific technical analysis and analytics. Examples include municipal-wide monitoring program design and integration, project-specific and city-wide model development, sanitary sewer Inflow and Infiltration reduction, storage attenuation, and developing software to analyze the hydrology and hydraulics, collect and analyze the data, and convert this to useful information for making decisions about the systems.

MATTHEW MALONE:
VP, BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT - CIVICA

Matthew Malone has accumulated a wealth of experience in the areas of wastewater and stormwater capacity assessment and management, with a high level of expertise in capacity management, stormwater management, flow monitoring, and inflow and infiltration (I/I) programs. Matthew’s previous experience as a Project Manager for the Region of Peel’s Infrastructure Planning and Asset Management group allowed him to gain insights into the key challenges faced by municipalities managing water/wastewater assets.
