of Santa Ana <br />Section 8: System Evaluation, Capacity Assurance <br />and Capital Improvements <br />(g)Identify system assets vulnerable to direct and indirect impacts of climate <br />change, including sea level rise, flooding and/or erosion due to increased <br />storm volumes, frequency, and/or intensity; wildfires; and increased power <br />disruptions. <br />Capacity Assessment and Design Criteria: The Plan must include procedures to <br />identify system components that are experiencing or contributing to spills caused <br />by hydraulic deficiency and/or limited capacity, including procedures to identify <br />the appropriate hydraulic capacity of key system elements for: <br />(a)Dry-weather peak flow conditions that cause or contribute to spill events <br />(b)The appropriate design storms) or wet -weather events that cause or <br />contribute to spill events, <br />(c) The capacity of key system elements, and <br />(d)Identify the major sources that contribute to the peak flows associated with <br />sewer spills. <br />The capacity assessment must cover: <br />(a) Data from existing system condition assessments, system inspections, system <br />audits, spill history, and other available information; <br />(b) Capacity of flood -prone systems subject to increased infiltration and inflow <br />(III), under normal local and regional storm conditions; <br />(c) Capacity of systems subject to increased III due to larger and/or higher - <br />intensity storm events as a result of climate change; <br />(d) Increases of erosive forces in canyons and streams near underground and <br />above -ground system components due to larger and/or higher -intensity storm <br />events; <br />(e) Capacity of major system elements to accommodate dry -weather peak flow <br />conditions, and updated design storm and wet -weather events; and <br />0) Necessary redundancy in pumping and storage capabilities. <br />Prioritization of Corrective Action: The findings of the condition assessments and <br />capacity assessments must be used to prioritize corrective actions. Prioritization <br />must also consider the severity of the consequences of potential spills. <br />Capital Improvement Plan (CIP): The CIP must include the following items: <br />(a) Project schedules including completion dates for all portions of the CIP; <br />(b) Internal/external project funding sources for each project, and <br />NOR <br />
