Infiltration/Inflow Control Program
	Excessive infiltration and inflow (I/I) into the sanitary sewer system is a serious problem that contributes to sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) and basement backups (BBs). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Illinois EPA (IEPA) imposed special conditions in the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits issued for the District’s Water Reclamation Plants (WRPs) that requires tributary local separate sanitary sewer satellite entities to implement measures in addition to those required under the 1985 Sewer Summit Agreement if excessive I/I in the system causes or contributes to SSOs or BBs. Due to this mandate, the District incorporated an updated Infiltration and Inflow Control Program (IICP) that was developed with the help of an Advisory Technical Panel (ATP) into the Watershed Management Ordinance (WMO).
	The IICP is defined in Article 8 of the WMO.
		Article 8: Infiltration/Inflow Control Program (Incorporated into the WMO on July 10, 2014)
	The District and the ATP developed the Technical Guidance Manual (TGM) which serves as a technical reference to the IICP.
