LOI and has invited Fox Chapel to submit a grant application by
June 30, 2024. LSSE submitted both GROW Grant applications to
ALCOSAN on June 26, 2024. ALCOSAN requested additional
information for the GROW Applications. LSSE transmitted letter to
ALCOSAN indicating the Borough’s intent to submit a GROW
application for Cycle 10 for the 2023 Lining Program (excludes
2024 Hemlock Hollow Lining due to post construction flow
monitoring costs).
▪ Lining completed on Old Mill Road was combined with the Old Mill

A memo summarizing flow data collected in 2023 has been drafted. To be
reviewed with the Borough in February 2024. LSSE issued 2023 Flow Data
Review Memo dated February 28, 2024. On October 8, 2024, LSSE moved
the Hemlock monitor to the MM-L-09 site in response to comments from

is being collected for previously submitted GROW Grant applications.
o Interceptor H&H Model Update: A Service Order Authorization (SOA)
was submitted to the Borough on February 22, 2023 related to updating the
hydrologic and hydraulic (H&H) model and sanitary sewer alternatives
analysis based on contemporary flow data collected over the past 10 years.
Flow data analysis has been initiated. Recalibration and alternatives
analysis are complete. This model was utilized for the Old Mill upgrades,
for GROW Grant Applications, and for current/future sanitary sewer
projects.
o ALCOSAN Regionalization: Interceptor takeover review ongoing in
Allegheny County. ALCOSAN considering taking over certain interceptor
sewers in the County, approximately 185 miles is being discussed. Meeting
with ALCOSAN /AECOM held on Friday, July 7, 2015 to discuss
regionalization discussion for multi-municipal sewers. ALCOSAN held a
series of regionalization outreach meetings, the last week in September
2018. ALCOSAN hosted a meeting in regards to Regionalization and
GROW Grants on October 27, 2021. Issues with the modified transfer
agreement were discussed. Potential next step would be to focus on
Guyasuta Interceptor agreement first if conflicts regarding park property
can be resolved. ALCOSAN met with LSSE to review status of all LSSE
clients’ interceptor takeovers and provided most recent packet of
information for each that has been provided to the Boroughs and
Townships. ALCOSAN is aware of the Borough’s concerns with the
agreement. A meeting to be scheduled to update status with the Solicitor
and Borough Staff and then with Council in the summer months. No
Change.
o Shady Lane / Delafield Stream Removal Project: The Army Corp is
taking the lead on the project. ALCOSAN and the Army Corp recently
executed an agreement to move this project to the design phase. This
agreement arranged for ALCOSAN to use a portion of their 25% project
match to fund design costs. An A/E Firm was selected but the fees requested
were over the amount budgeted. The project is now being considered a
separation project. 30% Design Drawings from USACE were provided by
ALCOSAN on July 24, 2023. No Change.
