SECTION 1. Introduction
1.1 Background The Town of Cave Creek (Town) is located in Maricopa County, Arizona and was incorporated in 1986. At an elevation ranging between 2,000 and 3,060 feet above sea level, the Town is home to a population of 5,015 people1. Bounded by unincorporated Maricopa Country to the north, Phoenix to the west and south, Carefree to the east, and Scottsdale to the southeast, the Town of Cave Creek encompasses approximately 29 square miles.
Figure 1-1 Location of Town
The Town recently abandoned their 0.233 million gallons per day (MGD) package wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), which was located on Rancho Mañana Boulevard in order to build a new water reclamation facility (WRF) that could better handle current and future projected flows. The new facility, Water Ranch, began operation in November 2010 is located along the north side of Carefree Highway at 44th Street, east of Cave Creek Wash, as shown in Figure 1-2. The previous package plant has been abandoned and a lift station was built at its location to pump all wastewater to the new facility.

SECTION 2. Existing Wastewater Infrastructure
2.1 Collection System Wastewater is largely collected via gravity sewer collection system. Some isolated portions of the system drain to a local lift station before being pumped to a nearby gravity section. Approximately 90% of the wastewater flows are ultimately routed to the Rancho Manana lift station before being pumped to the Water Ranch Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) constructed in 2010. The Water Ranch WRF has a current rated capacity of 0.71 MGD and is located along the north side of Carefree Highway and 44th Street. This plant is the sole wastewater treatment plant to service the Town of Cave Creek.
2.1.1 Gravity Mains The Town’s sanitary sewer system consists of 6 through 16 inch sewer lines and has three interceptors. The first is located within the right-of-way of Cave Creek Road and runs east to west by gravity to collect wastewater from commercial areas. The second interceptor also runs east to west and is located south of the first interceptor. This sewer line collects wastewater from the remaining commercial areas and a small residential area. The third interceptor, running south to north by gravity, collects wastewater from Town Hall north to Rancho Mañana Boulevard.
In 2010 as part of the Water Ranch project a 12in sanitary sewer was constructed along the north side of Carefree Highway to accept flows from the commercial areas along Carefree Highway and the forcemain discharge from the Rancho Manana lift station. The flows are ultimately conveyed to the influent pump station at the Water Ranch WRF.
2.1.2 Force Mains There are two force mains connecting small residential areas to the gravity sewer system. The connection points for this system are located at the Desert Creek Subdivision and on the Conestoga Trail. Pumps located at individual homes are used to deliver these flows to the sewer system. The force mains at this location were not included in the model network, however, sewer flows generated in those areas were routed to the closest manholes.
2.1.3 Dry Sewer Areas A majority of the Town still remains as dry sewer. However, a large portion (west of Cave Creek Wash) is planned to be sewered as contained within this document.

2.2 Lift Stations The Town is responsible for the operation and maintenance of three lift stations. One is located to the north of the abandoned WWTP and a second to the south of this site. The lift station to the north of the old WWTP pumps wastewater collected from the Rancho Manana subdivision to the old WWTP, while the lift station to the south pumps the remainder of the Town’s wastewater flows to the same location. With the construction of the new Water Ranch WRF, an additional lift station has been constructed so that flows enter the system as they always have but are then pumped from the abandoned site to the Water Ranch WRF.

The 12in PVC gravity sewer main enters the WRF at the southeast corner and combines with flows from the facility drain through an 8in PVC gravity drain in the influent pump station (IPS). This pump station includes a wet well, two submersible pumps, and a valve vault complete with check and isolation valves.
Large solids are removed from the influent stream via an in-channel rotary drum screen and then continue towards the grit removal system. Secondary treatment (nitrification and

denitrification) is controlled by two sequencing batch reactors which fill, react, settle and clarify the wastewater. Waste activated sludge (WAS) is pumped to the sludge holding tanks before dewatering via a belt filter press to create sludge cake for landfill disposal.
Following secondary treatment and prior to the tertiary filters, SBR effluent is sent to equalization basins in order to minimize the hydraulic surges to the downstream processes.
Tertiary filtration is performed by cloth disc filters and followed by chlorination in the three chlorine contact basins. The plant has the ability to discharge directly to the adjacent Cave Creek Wash, for emergencies only. Should this discharge be required, the facility has the ability to dechlorinate the effluent prior to discharge.
2.4 Reclaimed Water Pipeline Once the water has been treated at Water Ranch, effluent is conveyed to the storage ponds located on the Rancho Mañana Golf course via an 8in ductile iron reuse forcemain. The reclaimed water forcemain transports the water along Carefree Highway to Cave Creek road, turns north on Cave Creek Road, turns west on Rancho Mañana Boulevard, turns north at the west side of the golf course maintenance facility then discharges into the storage ponds. The golf course utilizes the reclaimed water for irrigation purposes whenever it is needed. There is also a telescoping valve located inside of the reclaimed water wet well to create a point source discharge to Cave Creek Wash, which is located near the abandoned wastewater treatment plant site, within the Town limits. This discharge is permitted by the AZPDES permit was created to be used only in an emergency.
2.5 Existing Permits Water Ranch WRF meets Class A+ reclaimed water standards as stated in the Table 2-5. The golf course is the primary means of discharging effluent under reclaimed water permit. However, in case of emergency, WRF can discharge to the wash as permitted Arizona Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (AzPDES) Permit.

SECTION 3. Planning
3.1 Existing Service Areas The existing sewer system consists of approximately 230 acres of active sewer as well as approximately 260 acres of dry sewer. The existing active sewer service areas identified by the Town represent those areas that are currently connected to the existing sanitary sewer system, thus contributing flows to the WRF.
3.2 Population Projections Various population projects exist for the Town of Cave Creek. These sources include: Arizona Department of Economic Security (ADES), Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG), Town of Cave Creek (TOCC) 2005 General Plan and United States (US) Census. The data from these various sources are presented below compared to US Census population.
Figure 3-1 Population Project Comparison
As shown, the population projections presented in the TOCC 2005 General Plan very closely predicted the population for 2010 (approximately 1.874% growth per year). Therefore, these population projections will be used for the purposes of this report. Due to the fact that Carefree and Desert Hills areas do not have accurate population projections, the growth projection for Cave Creek will be utilized for these areas also.

Two population growth scenarios were considered. One with normal growth projection at 1.874% and another with accelerated growth of 3.75%. As seen in the Figure 3-1, if accelerated growth happens, than TOCC will see buildout capacity of 8600 units by 2022.
Table 3-1 shows the population projection for TOCC, Desert Hills, Carefree and combined of all system for both growth scenarios.

SECTION 4. Wastewater Loads
4.1 Wastewater Generation Rates Data received from TOCC was analyzed for the period between January 2012 and December 2012. Based on that data, Water Ranch WRF received total of 76.3 MG of wastewater for the year. As discussed in the Water Master Plan, 2 person per dwelling unit (ppdu) and 2.49 ppdu were considered throughout the report. Based on the number of sewer connection, it was determined that average wastewater generation per sewer connection was 400 gal/day. This equates to 200 gpcd and 160 gpcd for 2 ppdu and 2.49 ppdu respectively.
As discussed in the Water Master Plan, water demand is 250 gpcd and 200 gpcd for 2 ppdu and 2.49 ppdu respectively. This indicates wastewater to water (WW/W) ratio of 0.8. This ratio is used to determine wastewater projection for the future.
Figure 4-1 shows the wastewater flow variation throughout the year of 2012. As seen from the graph, high flows were recorded in late winter, early spring months while in summer months, wastewater entering the plants decreased.

For year 2012, wastewater generated by billing type is shown in the Figure 4-2.
Figure 4-2 2012 Wastewater Generated by Billing Type
As seen from the graph, wastewater generated is mostly from the residential units followed by commercial and restaurants.
4.2 Wastewater Projections As population continues to increase in the Cave Creek area, wastewater flows will also increase. As discussed earlier for planning purposes, the current population is assumed to be generating between 200 and 160 gpcd which correlates to 2 ppdu and 2.49 ppdu, respectively. By the year 2040, it is estimated that 50% of the newly added population will be connected to the sanitary sewer system.
Table 4-2 shows the projected population that will be connected to the sewer connection and contribute to the flows entering Water Ranch WRF and wastewater flows for 2 ppdu and 2.49 ppdu.

The above flow projections are solely based on increased flows due to population growth. There is the potential for additional commercial flow to be added to the collection system along Carefree Highway.
The CIP has captured this increase in total plant capacity (0.98mgd average annual day). In tracking plant flows and permitting of additional commercial in this area, Cave Creek will be able to adjust to these unknown impacts without exceed system capacity.
The collection system along Carefree Highway is adequately sized for this additional commercial flow up to the manhole where Estrado de Cholla dry sewer flows are proposed to be discharged. From that point into the plant, this gravity sewer needs to be upsized to 16” and is captured in the CIP.
4.3 Wastewater Peaking Factors Average wastewater flow projections were developed based on the above illustrated population projections and wastewater generation rates.
Peak hour flows were calculated based on the average wastewater generation and population served as described in the following equation (ADEQ Bulletin 11).
QMax/QAvg = 5.0/P1/6
Where: QMax/QAvg - Peak Hour Peaking Factor
P - Population in thousand
An analysis was performed for the population growth shown in the Table 4-2. As these calculations are empirical, it is important to notice that actual flow data can often provide better, more accurate information than these regulatory equations.
Also, smaller systems such as TOCC’s often require larger peaking factors to account for the increased potential of rapid changes in sewer flows.

SECTION 5. Model Development
5.1 Modeling Software Selection InfoSewer 7.6 wastewater modeling software distributed by Innovyze was used to model the wastewater collection system. An extended period simulation was used to model the dry weather and wet weather responses for existing and future scenarios over a 24-hour period with a time step of one minute. A Manning’s n coefficient of 0.013 was assumed for the entire pipe network. Demands were calculated for each parcel based on the number of dwelling units and planned zoning, and then those loads were applied to the appropriate nodes (manholes) within the hydraulic model.
5.2 GIS Database Various GIS datasets were developed to support the hydraulic modeling efforts, including ones for pipelines (i.e., gravity mains, forcemains), manholes, lift stations, and parcels. The following table lists the types of model data developed for each dataset.

Manhole Assignment
Information for the physical components of the model (e.g., pipelines, manholes, lift stations) were directly imported into the InfoSewer model. The parcel GIS dataset was used to apply hydraulic loads onto the model. Each parcel in the project boundary was assigned to a specific system manhole and identified as either connecting to the existing collection or connecting to the collection system in the future (e.g., dry sewered areas). Additionally each parcel was assigned a land use type of either residential, commercial, or vacant so that the appropriate wastewater generation rate and diurnal curve could be applied to the system from each parcel.
5.3 Data Sources Information from the previous wastewater collection system master plan was reviewed so the results of this master plan were consistent with and built upon previous efforts.
Record drawings of the existing collection system were used to apply information about the physical attributes (e.g., rim and invert elevations, lengths, pipe diameters) to the model.

Maricopa County GIS data were obtained and used so that parcels connected under the existing and future collection system scenarios could be identified. The County GIS parcel dataset also included information on the land use type of each parcel. The land use data was used to apply the appropriate wastewater generation rates (i.e., residential or commercial) as hydraulic loads to the model.
5.4 Modeling
5.4.1 Collection System 5.4.1.1 Gravity Main
The modeled gravity mains within the Town’s collection system were assessed to determine the system capacity over a 24-hour period. The depth-to-diameter ratio (d/D) was calculated for each gravity main segment (i.e., manhole to manhole) for each minute over the model simulation. Upon completion of the model run, the maximum d/D experienced during the day is recorded for each gravity main segment. This value is used to assess the capacity of each gravity main segment. 5.4.1.2 Force Main
The information used to model the Town’s forcemains, included pipe diameter, pipe length, and Hazen-Williams friction factor. The flow from the connected lift station is modeled over the simulation period of 24-hours. The velocity and headloss is calculated for each time step (i.e., each minute) of the simulation. Graphs showing the output of the calculated velocity and headloss are reviewed so that these values remain within expected and acceptable ranges.
5.4.2 Lift Station Under the existing conditions scenario, three lift stations were represented in the model (i.e., 54th Street LS, Rancho Manana LS, and Stagecoach Pass Estates LS). The wetwell dimensions, pumping capacities, and pump level controls were applied to each lift station to convey the wastewater entering the station through the associated forcemains to the terminating gravity manhole.
Under the future conditions scenario, the 54th Street LS and the Rancho Manana LS continued to operate as defined in the existing conditions scenario. The Stagecoach Pass Estates LS was deactivated and flow which had been entering that station was allowed to flow by gravity through the proposed dry sewered area. A proposed lift station to the north of Carefree Highway and northeast of the Water Ranch WRF was modeled to convey the flow from the dry sewered areas directly north of Carefree Highway to the 12” gravity line running along the same highway. Additionally, the proposed lift station at 24th Street and Carefree Highway was modeled to convey the flow from the dry sewered areas west of Cave Creek to the wastewater treatment plant.

5.4.3 Elevations Elevation data is critical to the accuracy of a hydraulic model of a gravity collection system. The hydraulic capacity of the components of the system is directly related to their respective invert and rim elevations. Rim elevations, invert elevations, pipe diameters, and lengths used for each pipeline and manhole in the sewer model were taken from record drawings so that the model accurately represented the available system information.
5.4.4 Operational Information A residential flow rate of 200 gallons per capita per day was used for the modeling process under existing conditions. After analyzing total residential flows, the commercial flow rate was calibrated against the flow records on hand from the wastewater treatment plant. This ensured total flows entering the plant in the model accurately reflected actual flow data recorded.
For the modeling process under future conditions, the residential flow rate was calibrated against the expected 2040 population of 4540 connected to the sewer collection system. The same commercial flow rate per acre under existing conditions was utilized for future conditions.
Typical residential and commercial diurnal curves were applied to the flows originating from each parcel based on the recorded land use for that parcel. Implementing diurnal curves in an extended period simulation allows flows from individual parcels to be modeled and represented over the course of the day to investigate how peak flows during the day combine and the impact that has on the capacity of each component in the system.
Additional hydraulic loads were applied to the collection system model to analyze the effect of wet weather and inflow and infiltration (I/I). The volume of I/I entering the collection system was determined to be 114,000 gpd based on an analysis of the flows entering the wastewater treatment plant over the year. This volume of I/I was distributed evenly across the collection system and applied to the model using a typical rainfall dependent I/I curve. The I/I curve represents the sudden influx of flow during a storm event from inflow (e.g., flow through manhole covers, cross connections) and the prolonged entry of flow into the system from infiltration (e.g., groundwater entering the system through cracks and pipe joints). The peak of the storm event was aligned with the peak of the diurnal curve in the model simulation to evaluate the system capacity under the “worst-case” situation for this modeled wet weather event.
5.4.5 Model Calibration Results for dry and wet weather scenarios under existing conditions were calibrated against the flow records at the wastewater treatment plant. This was done to analyze the accuracy of the wastewater generation rates and diurnal curves applied as loads to existing scenario. Once the calibration efforts of the existing flows was complete and a level of confidence in the applied wastewater generation rates was reached, the same generation rates were applied to future scenarios.

SECTION 6. Future Wastewater Infrastructure
6.1 Future Collection System As most of TOCC Town Core is developed and currently has sewer, most of the future collection systems will be developer driven. As such, these future facilities will more than likely be provided by the individual developer, reviewed and approved by the Town.
Future developments within the TOCC service area should be applied to the model provided by this report to validate no impact to upstream and/or downstream facilities.
6.1.1 Gravity Main Current modeling of the gravity collection system shows that the existing system does not exceed 0.5 d/D and maintains greater than 3ft of freeboard in the manholes under wet-weather flow events.
Future modeling of the gravity collection system reveals 3,600lf of 8in and 3,800lf of 12in piping that needs to be upsized to maintain d/D ratios less than 0.8 under future wet-weather scenarios. However, while these sections of gravity sewer do result in full-pipe conditions, the upstream and downstream manholes still maintain a freeboard greater than 3ft. These sections of pipe are shown in the CIP for upsizing to provide a conservative capacity in these areas of the system.
6.1.2 Force Main The existing forcemains are operating within their design conditions and show no cause for upsizing. Repairs or rehabilitation may be required as these pipes tend to experience H2S corrosion.
6.1.3 Extending sewer main within Town’s Limit Extension of the sewer main within the Town’s limit shall be review on a case-by-case basis. However, Appendix A illustrates the current d/D (flow depth / pipe diameter) within the Town’s collection system. Typically sewers have available capacity until the d/D reaches 0.80.
6.1.4 Connecting Dry Sewered to Town Sewer Main Currently there are not any plans to connect large sections of existing Town residents/commercial to the gravity sewer system as long as their septic systems keep functioning. However, this document has evaluated the addition of these areas to the collection system and treatment plant and find no major issues regarding system capacity.
The modeling and CIP provides for infrastructure to connect sewer to the following dry-sewered areas:
- Estado de Cholla
- Hidden Valley
- Town annexed areas west of Cave Creek Wash

6.2 Future Lift Stations Current dry sewered areas to the west of Cave Creek are depicted in Appendix A. These two areas represent approximately 4 square miles of land. Utilizing the 2010 US Census figure of 132 people per square mile, the anticipated flow rate at 100 gpcd from these two future areas is estimated to be 52,800 gpd.
Sufficient topography exists in these particular areas to gravity flow the sewer to a potential lift station site near Carefree Highway and 24th Street. Approximately 13,000lft of 6in forcemain would then be constructed to convey the lift station flows to the Water Ranch WRF.

6.3 Future Wastewater Treatment Plant The current capacity at Water Ranch is 0.71 MGD. It is recommended that existing facility be expanded to when the flows at the facility reaches 80% of its rated capacity. Based on projections previously described, this threshold will be reached in the years between 2022 and 2037, depending on the growth of the service area. For the purposes of conservative planning, this expansion has been schedule for 2022. At that time, an additional 0.30 MGD process train needs to be added. According to projections, this capacity should be able to support the system through 2040.

6.4 Future Reclaimed Water Pipeline The TOCC currently disposes of the reclaimed effluent generated at the Water Ranch WRF via a forcemain to the Rancho Manana golf course. A brief review of the reuse pump data provided within the Water Ranch O&M suggests that the existing reclaimed effluent pumps will be capable of pumping approximately 1MGD through the 8in forcemain given the following estimates:
- Total Forcemain Length = 27,000 ft
- Elevation Change = 200 ft
Current effluent flow meter data at the WRF indicates that the facility is currently discharging on an annual average basis approximately 0.25 MGD, therefore the existing pumps and forcemain will be sufficient for many years of service. When the Cave Creek population reaches 8,600 (buildout), the WRF influent flow is estimated at 0.884mgd. If the additional 100,000gpd is realized for future commercial, the estimated effluent flow will be 0.98MGD.

6.5 Future Reclaimed Water Reservoir The TOCC is currently not pursuing any future storage reservoirs regarding WRF effluent.
6.6 Future Recharge and Recovery Facilities As reclaimed water flows continue to increase, the TOCC will begin to explore the options of utilizing an Underground Storage Facility (USF) to obtain recharge credits for the effluent not used at the golf course.
The installation of a vadose zone well has been programmed into the CIP for year 2023 after the WRF expansion is completed.
6.7 Future Permits The following future permits are anticipated as being required:
- Groundwater Recharge:
o Underground Storage Facility (USF) from ADWR
o Water Storage Permit (WSP) from ADWR
o ADWR Recharge Well Drilling Permit
- WRF Expansion
o Aquifer Protection Permit (APP) major modification for flow increase
o Arizona Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (AZPDES) major modification for flow increase
TOCC should maintain their current AZPDES, APP and Reuse Permits in compliance with ADEQ as these permits are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain. Furthermore, ADEQ has initiated increased scrutiny regarding regulatory compliance and enforcement.
