Section 7:14A-23.3 - Projected flow criteria

(a) The values specified below are to be used in computing the projected flow to wastewater conveyance and treatment facilities and when making an application for a treatment works approval pursuant to N.J.A.C. 7:14A-22. The specific measurement unit listed for each category shall be used as the basis for the projected flow. No additional provisions for inflow and infiltration are required. For the purposes of design only, other values, proposed by the design engineer, through actual water usage data, may be accepted at the Department's discretion, with an appropriate safety factor. However, all determination concerning whether or not any specific project requires a treatment works approval and/or sewer ban exemption shall be based upon the projected flow criteria established below. These criteria are not mandated to be used by sewerage authorities as a basis for establishing local user fees and/or connection fees.

In the event that a facility is not covered, the applicant shall propose the projected flow based upon operation of similar facilities or best professional judgment. The Department reserves the right to accept, modify or deny the proposed flow values.
