TAUNTON HAS EXPERIENCED SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOWS ( SSOs ) FROM ITS WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEM. THE COLLECTION SYSTEM ALSO CONTAINS A SINGLE COMBINED SEWER OVERFLOW ( CSO )OUTFALL. THE ORDER REQUIRES THAT THE CITY CONTINUE TO EVALUATE AND REHABILITATE ITS WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEM WHICH SHOULD GREATLY REDUCE THE FREQUENCY AND VOLUME OF SSOs AND CSO. THE ORDER FURTHER REQUIRES THAT THE CITY EVALUATE THE POSSIBILITY THAT THE COLLECTION SYSTEM REHABILITATION WORK BY ITSELF WILL NOT ELIMINATE THE SSOs AND THE CSO. IN THAT CASE, THE ORDER REQUIRES THE CITY TO SUBMIT A PLAN AND SCHEDULE ADDITIONAL MEASURES (I.E. STORAGE AND PUMP BACK GENERIC BYPASS WITH HIGHFLOW MANAGEMENT, ETC.) TO BE DONE IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE COLLECTION SYSTEM REHABILITATION WORK TO ELIMINATE THE SSOs AND CS0.
