The Sewer Utility System The City owns and operates a sanitary sewer collection system consisting of approximately 200 miles of sewer pipelines and 31 sewer lift stations. The City's wastewater is conveyed to the Authority for treatment and disposal. The City's sewer utility is accounted for as a separate enterprise fund. The Public Works Services Department oversees management, maintenance and operation of the City's sewer collection system. The City's Engineering and Construction Division of the Community Development Department is responsible for the design and construction of capital improvements to the City's sewer collection system. Financial management of the City's Sewer Utility System is provided by the City's Administrative Services Department under which the Revenue Services Division is responsible for all City utility billing and collections, including processing of connection and facilities fees. Wastewater Flows The following table shows the City's recent average daily wastewater flows to the Authority. TABLE Al CITY OF REDWOOD CITY ANNUAL WASTEWATER FLOW 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 2019-20 Average Daily Flow (mgd) 6.4 7.8 7.2 7.7 7.1 Source: Silicon Valley Clean Water. The decrease in wastewater flow between 2016-17 and 2017-18 was largely due to a decrease in flow between January -February 2017 and January -February 2018 caused by several factors, including decreased rainfall during that period in 2018 and operational changes to the sewer system in 2017, such as the flushing of the City's recycled water system into the sewer system. Service Area and Customer Base The City's sewer enterprise provides wastewater service to most of the incorporated area of the City as well as some surrounding adjacent areas. The City also provides wastewater conveyance and treatment services to five sewer districts and a small sewer assessment district as discussed later on in this section.
