This document presents the 2010 System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance (SECAP) Update for Little Rock Wastewater. Building upon the original 2002 SECAP, its primary purpose is to evaluate the impact of completed projects, validate the need for remaining improvements, and develop a Capital Improvement Plan to eliminate overflows and achieve compliance with the Consent Administrative Order and Settlement Agreement by 2016. Key objectives include updating city-wide wastewater flow monitoring, refining the existing hydraulic model to identify capacity deficiencies, analyzing pump station and Wastewater Treatment Plant operations for efficiency, developing budget estimates for required capacity improvements, recommending inflow/infiltration reduction measures, and determining capacity requirements for future growth.

This document outlines Amendment No. 2 to the 2010 Sewer Evaluation & Capacity Assurance Plan (SECAP) Update for the Little Rock Water Reclamation Authority (LRWRA). The amendment proposes significant updates to mitigate Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSO) and achieve compliance by 2023. Key strategies include replacing planned wet weather storage facilities with a 'Find It / Fix It Program' focused on inflow/infiltration reduction in critical drainage areas, and implementing a revised rainfall analysis compliance framework based on a '2-year, 10-day' precipitation return period. The goal is to enhance system efficiency, ensure asset renewal, and establish a clear, enforceable mechanism for environmental compliance.

The Little Rock Water Reclamation Authority's (LRWRA) 2026 Strategic Plan outlines a roadmap to protect public health and the environment by providing high-quality, reliable wastewater service. Key initiatives include maintaining NPDES permit compliance for its treatment facilities, implementing an integrated Asset Management/Preventive Maintenance Program, and supporting growth in its service area. The plan is guided by critical success factors in quality, public outreach, asset management, organizational development, financial stewardship, and regulatory compliance, with a focus on infrastructure replacement, new facility construction, and operational maintenance.
