    Strategic, scalable outreach for non-dispersible products
    Justin Waples

    In the San Francisco East Bay Area, the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (Martinez, Calif.) collection system of approximately 30,000 manhole structures, 2500 km (1540 mi) of pipe, 19 pump stations, and a 204,400-m3/d (54-mgd) capacity wastewater treatment plant. With the rapidly growing market for disposable wipes and other allegedly flushable products, Central San became increasingly concerned about the impact to infrastructure, cost to mitigate, and staff time required to deal with their increased use. When flushed, wipes can contribute to sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) and affect the treatment process and become a hassle to dispose of after treatment. In 2012, with only a shoe-string budget, Central San commenced a targeted outreach initiative to help address the burgeoning non-dispersibles issue and the associated overflows in its collection system.
