ALLISON SUBDIVISION PHASE IV
WASTEWATER SYSTEM DESIGN REPORT
A. General
This design report will give an overview of the proposed sewer main extension for the 48.21 acre
development of Allison Subdivision Phase IV (Section 24, Township 02S, Range 5E, Plat J-
608A) located at the intersection of Arnold Street and S. 11th Avenue in Bozeman. Phase 4 of
the subdivision is split into Phase IV A, B, and Future. The developed area in Phase IV A will
be approximately 21.09 acres, with approximately 27.12. acres remaining in Phase IV B and
Phase IV Future. There will also be a future Phase V of about 48.65 acres that will drain into the
proposed Phase IV sewer mains. This report focuses on Phase IV A as well as including
calculations for full build out of the remaining Phase IV and Phase V areas. It is not anticipated
that any other future development outside of The Allison Subdivision Phase IV and V will flow
into the proposed mains, as they are within different City of Bozeman Sewer Drainage Basins
and/or serviced by other existing city mains.
The report includes a description of the proposed sewer main and design parameters. The
proposed Phase IV A improvements are anticipated to be constructed during 2020 and 2021.
Once the sewer mains are constructed and approved, the mains will become a part of the City of
Bozeman system.
The following references were used in the wastewater facilities design and capacity analysis:
a. COB Design Standards and Specifications Policy, 2004, Addendum #6
b. COB Modifications to Montana Public Works Standard Specifications (MPWSS), Addendum #3
c. City adopted MPWSS and Adopted Addenda
d. COB Wastewater Facility Plan, 2015
e. Circular DEQ- 2
f. City of Bozeman Zoning Map
g. City of Bozeman Infrastructure Viewer
The procedures and parameters outlined in the COB Design Standards and Specifications Guide
were used in the design of the sewer infrastructure for the proposed development.
B. Capacity Analysis
The subdivision falls in the Spring Creek Drainage Basin in Bozeman, MT. The capacity was
calculated for full buildout of the remaining phases, Phase IV and Phase V, of Allison
Subdivision, approximately 96 acres, as well as for the current Phase IV A, about 21.61 acres.
The effluent generated from the proposed subdivision will flow north into the existing City of
Bozeman sanitary sewer manhole located in Opportunity Way, then east in an existing 8” main,
eventually reaching the existing 10” main in S 3rd Ave. Future Phase V will also flow through
the Phase IV mains. An exhibit showing the proposed mains and existing mains near the project
is included in the appendix, as well as the 2015 Wastewater Facilities plan Sewer Basin Exhibit
which shows the City’s sewer infrastructure. It is not anticipated that any other future
development outside of Phase IV and V will flow into the proposed mains, as they are within
different City of Bozeman Sewer Drainage Basins and/or served by other existing sewer mains.
The wastewater demands from the proposed subdivision were estimated based on a per gross
acre basis for zoned areas. The wastewater loading densities per zoned areas were obtained from
Table V-1 of the City of Bozeman Design Standards and Specifications for R-1, R-2 and R-3
zoning. City of Bozeman's Design Standards specify an average daily flow rate of 730
gal/acre/day for R-1 development, 980 gal/acre/day for R-2 development, and 1,220 gal/acre/day
for R-3 development. The proposed sewer mains have been sized to flow at no more than 75-
percent of full capacity at peak hour conditions of full build out, and a Manning coefficient of
0.013 was used for PVC pipe.
The average daily flow based on the estimated wastewater flows is shown in Table 1 below, a
basin exhibit is included in the appendix:

Total 96.87 75,394
The infiltration was determined based on 150 gpd/acre multiplied by the acreage per the City of
Bozeman Design Standards. A peaking factor for the entire subdivision including future phases
was calculated based on the following formula:
Qmax / Qave = (18 + P0.5) / (4 + P0.5) (P = Population/thousands)
Based on a total flow of 75,394 gpd and a wastewater flow rate of 65 gpcd, the total equivalent
population is 1,160 persons. With this equivalent population, the peaking factor is 3.76. The
calculated peaking factor is included in the appendix of this report. The peak flow rate
anticipated from the development at full build out based on an average daily flow of 75,394
gallons per day, plus an infiltration rate of 150 gpd/acre is:
Peak Flow Rate = (Average Flow Rate x Peaking Factor) + Infiltration
Peak Flow Rate = (75,394 gpd x 3.76) + (150 gpd/ac x 96.87 ac) = 298,012 gpd
= 207 gpm
= 0.46 cfs
The proposed Allison Subdivision Phase 4 plus future phase peak design flow is 0.46 cfs or 207
gpm.
The Allison Sub Phase 4 A total design flow is 18,896 gpd, and at a flow rate of 65 gpcd, this
equates to 298 persons. With this equivalent population, the peaking factor is 4.08. The
calculated peaking factor is included in the appendix of this report. The peak flow rate
anticipated from the development at full build out based on an average daily flow of 18,896
gallons per day, plus an infiltration rate of 150 gpd/acre is:
Peak Flow Rate = (Average Flow Rate x Peaking Factor) + Infiltration
Peak Flow Rate = (18,896 gpd x 4.08) + (150 gpd/ac x 21.09ac) = 80,260 gpd
= 56 gpm
= 0.124 cfs
The Allison Subdivision Phase 4 peak design flow is 0.124 cfs or 56 gpm. The sewer main size
for the development will be an 8-inch, based on minimum required pipe size and slope. An 8-
inch PVC sewer main at 0.4% slope has a capacity of 0.70 cfs at ¾ pipe depth which has
adequate capacity for the proposed peak flow of 0.46 cfs effluent generated from the 96-acre site.
Calculations are provided in the appendix of this report.
C. Proposed Collection System
PVC pipe meeting COB specifications will be used for all the sewer mains. The maximum
manhole spacing will be 400 feet for the 8-inch main with a manhole barrel size of 48-inches.
Manholes will be constructed according to COB specifications. All sewer services will be 4-inch
PVC installed at 2% minimum grade. Sewer services will connect into the main with in-line
gasketed wyes. A 4-inch sewer service with a grade of 2.0% can convey approximately 60 gpm
at 50% capacity. The sewer main will be located within a 60-foot wide Right of Way and
maintain a minimum separation of 10-feet from the proposed public water main.
D. Future Development Wastewater Demands
The full-buildout of the Allison Phase IV & V subdivision is anticipated to have a peak flow rate
of 0.46 cfs per the calculations above. The Allison Phase 4 & 5 developments lie within the
“Spring Creek” sewer drainage basin. A City of Bozeman sewer drainage basin exhibit taken
from the 2015 Wastewater Facilities Plan that shows the City’s sewer system is included in the
appendix. It is not anticipated that any other future development outside of Phase IV and V will
flow into the proposed mains, as they are within different City of Bozeman Sewer Drainage
Basins and/or serviced by other existing city mains. Therefore, the proposed 8” sewer main
improvements for the Allison Phase IV & V subdivisions are adequate to meet project and future
demands.
E. Downstream Capacity Analysis
The City of Bozeman has provided a letter indicating that capacity exists in the sewer collection
system to provide service for the subdivision. The letter is included with this report.
F. Groundwater, Soil Conditions, and Floodplain Information
According to an exploratory soil test pits on site, the soil consists of topsoil to a depth of 1.0’,
followed by lean clay (brown, medium stiff, silt lenses) to a depth of 7.5’, followed by well
graded gravel (multi colored, very dense to medium dense) to a depth of 17.0’. Groundwater
was observed in spring and summer of 2019 and 2020, and the highest (shallowest) groundwater
measurement was 3.17’ of the surface. The average seasonal high groundwater depth at the six
(6) wells was 5.32’ from the surface. Buoyancy calculations were conducted and indicate that the
proposed manholes are adequate for the design, buoyancy calculations are included in the
Appendix. The soil and groundwater found on site are suitable for this project.
Figgins creek borders the west side of the project and it has a FEMA delineated 100-year
floodplain. The proposed development will have restrictions on development in the floodplain
and creek setbacks. The proposed setbacks within the Phase IV A areas are displayed on the
Sewer Drainage Basin Exhibit included in the appendix.
G. Environmental Impacts
The proposed project is not anticipated to have any adverse environmental impacts. The
required Floodplain, 310, 318, and 404 permits have been obtained for the Phase IV A
improvements within the Figgins Creek areas. A SWPPP will be completed and put in place for
the Phase IV A project in accordance with City and State requirements. Future phases may
require additional permits, and they will be obtained in compliance with federal, state, and local
agencies as required.
H. Conclusion
As outlined above, the 8-inch sanitary sewer main serving Phases IV & V of Allison Subdivision
will have the capacity for the effluent generated the residential subdivision. In addition, there is
adequate capacity in the system to serve Allison Subdivision. This project will require the
approval of the City Engineer and MDEQ.
