5. Measure peak inflow during wet weather conditions by either the MCES metering system or by temporary monitoring equipment installed in the sanitary sewer system. 6. A, Initiate an III financial assistance surcharge program, starting in 2008. This program will allow MCES to surcharge communities to collect revenue for the community to use for solving its III problem. B. Allow communities with III reduction in place to continue with their programs and not participate in MCES's surcharge program. This will allow communities to undertake activities for III reduction using local funds, as long as those funds are equal to or greater than the surcharge program funds, MCES will work with communities with either option (A or B) to help solve their III problem on a case by case basis. 7. Limit increases in service within those communities where excessive III jeopardizes MCES's ability to convey wastewater without an overflow occurring. MCES will work with those communities on a case by case basis. 8. Limit future increases in service within those communities that have not met their III goal(s), starting in 2015, until the problem is solved. MCES will work with communities not meeting goals on a case by case basis 9, Institute a wastewater rate demand charge program, starting in 2015, for those communities that have not met their III goal(s), and are not actively working to do so, to help defray the cost of providing attenuation within the MDS to recover the capacity lost to their excessive III. MCES will continue to review communities and work with them on a case by case basis. 10. Work with the Public Facilities Authority to make funds available for IIIimprovements. 12
