c) Intermittent periods of increased use because of
training activities or other personnel mobilization exercises
common to military installations. Training activities or other
mobilization exercises will create short-term increases in
domestic wastewater and, potentially, industrial flows. These
intermittent activities may result in the peak wastewater flows
and loads. Facilities should be designed to handle routine
variations in flow and load from training and other routine
exercises in a manner to ensure acceptable performance and
reasonable O&M costs. For example, an equalization system may
provide flow and load dampening to accommodate these significant
variations. Facilities will not be designed to accommodate peak
surges resulting from emergency mobilizations.
d) Intermittent periods of reduced use. Low flows can
also be a problem. Therefore, design the wastewater facility to
operate efficiently over a range of flows (for example, provide
parallel trains that can be taken out of service, etc.).
e) Changes in requirements or the installation's
mission. Designs should include provisions for expansion,
contraction, or other modification because of more stringent
effluent requirements or installation mission changes. Make
efforts to maximize operational flexibility.
3.3.3
Wastewater Loadings. Wastewater loadings are typically
calculated based on the projected flows and wastewater pollutant
concentrations and are expressed in pounds per day (lb/d)
(kilograms per day [kg/d]). Where possible, determine loadings
by analyzing the wastewater to be treated or similar wastewater.
3.3.3.1
Domestic Wastes. Every effort should be made to use
measured data in planning and designing for wastewater flows.
As a last resort, if no wastewater data are available, use the
typical concentrations for domestic wastewater from WEF MOP 8,
