What is a Combined Sewer Overflow?
NYC’s sewer system is approximately 60% combined, which means it
is used to convey both sanitary and storm flows.
When the sewer system is at full capacity, a diluted mixture of rain water and
sewage may be released into local waterways. This is called a combined sewer
overflow (CSO).
65% to 90% of combined sanitary & storm flow is captured at treatment plants.

What is a LTCP and CSO Consent Order?
Long Term Control Plan (LTCP)
identifies appropriate CSO controls to achieve applicable
water quality standards
consistent with the Federal CSO Policy and Clean Water Act
CSO Consent Order
an agreement that settles past legal disputes without
prolonged litigation
requires DEP to develop LTCPs and mitigate CSOs

Flushing Creek Drainage Area
Flushing Creek is located in north-
central Queens and discharges into
Flushing Bay
Over 500 acres of the watershed
tributary drain to fresh water Meadow
and Willow Lakes
Flushing Creek is classified by New
York State DEC for secondary contact
recreation
Class I – Boating and Fishing
DEP wet-weather discharges include:
3 CSO Outfalls
5 Stormwater Outfalls

Green Infrastructure in New York City
Green Infrastructure (GI) collects
stormwater runoff from impervious
surfaces, such as streets and roofs,
reducing flow to sewers
2012 Consent Order requires GI
investments over 20 years
$1.5 billion budgeted for GI Citywide to
manage 1” of stormwater runoff from
10% of impervious combined sewered
areas by 2030
DEP will meet this goal through:
• Area-Wide Contracts
• Public Property Retrofits
• Grant Program for Private Property Owners
• Stringent Detention Rule for New Development
Permeable Pavers
Green Roofs
Bioswales
(right of way green infrastructure)
18
GI Opportunities for Private Property Owners
Green Infrastructure Grant Program: DEP provides funding for the design and construction costs of green
infrastructure on private property in combined sewer areas of the City.
Green Roof Tax Abatement:The City provides a one-year property tax abatement for private
properties that install green roofs. The abatement value is $5.23 per
square foot (up to the lesser of $200,000 or the building’s tax liability)
and is available through March 15, 2018.
2012 Stormwater Rule:In 2012, DEP amended the allowable flow rate of stormwater to the
City’s combined sewer system for new and existing development. Site
Connection Proposals may include green infrastructure technologies
to meet the new allowable rate.
19
Planned Green Infrastructure in Flushing Creek
Area-Wide GI Contracts:
• TI-022 – Geotechnical investigations
are complete
• TI-011 – Geotechnical investigations
are underway
• TI-010 – Design will begin this
fall/winter
PS 185Q:
• Construction began September 2015
• Rain garden and synthetic turf field
for “Schoolyards to Playgrounds”
project with TPL/SCA/DOE
Flushing Town Hall:
• In construction
• Rain garden and swales with the
Department of Cultural Affairs
.
20
Flushing Creek Preferred Alternative
Recreational Season Disinfection (May 1st – Oct. 31st)
*TI-010 – Disinfect at Influent Screens and DC5
*TI-011 – Disinfect at Regulator 9
TI-010 TI-011
Benefits
• Provides disinfection of
tank bypass flows
• Minimizes footprint as
disinfection equipment
can be installed at
existing site
• Utilizes gravity, no
effluent pumping
• Maximizes use of
existing infrastructure
• Cost effective; no
retention tank needed
Challenges
• May require control
structure at end of
outfall
• Potential residual
chlorine issues
• Potential impacts due
to street work
• May require control
structure at end of
outfall
• Potential residual
chlorine issues
• May require site
acquisition
Construction $2 Million $5 Million
O&M Cost $350,000 per Year $300,000 per Year
*Note: Provisions for floatables control to be
evaluated and included in the design for both TI-010
and TI-011.

Results in CSO Reduction and
Addresses Legacy CSO Odor Issues
Waterbody/Watershed Facility Plan (WWFP) Recommended
Implementation of Three Grey Infrastructure Projects:
1) Divert Low-Lying Sewers / Raise Weir BB-02
2) Regulator Modifications
3) Environmental Dredging of Flushing Bay
49
1) Divert Low-Lying Sewers / Raise Weir BB-02
Divert low-lying sewers in the vicinity of Bowery Bay WWTP
and raise the weir at regulator BB-02
• Estimated Cost
= $5.6 Million
• Construction Completion
= December 2016
• Current Status
= In Construction

2) Regulator Modifications
Bowery Bay high level
interceptor regulator
modifications at 5
regulators: BB-R4, BB-R5,
BB-R6, BB-R9, and BB-R10
• Estimated Cost
= $41.4 Million
• Construction Completion
= June 2018
• Current Status
= Design Completed

3) Environmental Dredging of Flushing Bay
Removal of CSO related sediments
that are exposed at low tides
Dredge Area = 17.5 acres
Dredge Quantity = 91,600 cubic yards
Post-Dredge Depth = 4 feet below mean
lower low water
Removal of deteriorated piles and
abandoned Pier head at Pier 2
• Estimated Cost = $38.8 Million
• Current status = Design Completed
