DC Combined Sewer System 1/3 of DC area is served by combined sewers (12,478 acres) 53 CSO outfalls 15 to Anacostia 10 to Potomac 28 to Rock Creek Three receiving waters Anacostia River Potomac River Rock Creek 7

Importance of the Anacostia River Anacostia – Native American Word (Anaquash) meaning village trading center Wetland loss, deforestation, and urbanization have significantly degraded the water quality of the Anacostia River Tidal waters flow 8.4 miles Joins Potomac at Hain’s Point for 108 miles Empties into the Chesapeake Bay 8
9
Environmental Benefits of the DC Clean Rivers Project CSO Reduction 96% Reduction in CSO Volume: Anacostia:2,142 to 54 mil gal/yr Potomac:1,063 to 79 mil gal/yr Rock Creek:49 to 5 mil gal/yr Number of Overflows Reduced: Anacostia:75 to 2/yr Potomac:74 to 4/yr Rock Creek:30 to 4/yr Water Quality Improvement Reduced nitrogen Bacteria levels will be lower, dissolved oxygen will be higher Trash/Floatables Reduction Trash/floatables from CSOs will be practically eliminated Flooding Relief in Northeast Boundary Area 98% Reduction in CSOs to Anacostia River 9
