Specific Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP)

The State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) adopted Order Number 2006-0003-DWQ, the Sanitary Sewer Systems Waste Discharge Requirements (WDRs), which requires all federal and state agencies, municipalities, counties, districts and other public entities that own or operate a wastewater collection system greater than one mile in length to develop and implement a system specific Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP).

The SSMP documents how an agency manages its wastewater collection system. The SSMP prepared by the City of South El Monte is in compliance with the Waste Discharge Requirements (WDR) and documents the City’s system specific plans and programs to operate, maintain, and manage its wastewater collection system. The 2015 SSMP serves a five-year update to the City’s 2010 SSMP so that the City can remain compliant with SWRCB Order Number 2006-0003-DWQ.
