Carmina Wood Design  Project No.:  23-4121  Date:  5/18/2026
  80 Silo City Row, Suite 100  Project Name:  Multifamily Development
  Buffalo, NY 14203  Project Address:  1475 Orchard Park Road - Town of West Seneca
  (716) 842-3165  Subject:  Sanitary Sewage Pump Station Design
  FAX (716) 842-0263  Sheet:  1  of  1

Sanitary Sewage Demand Calculations:

  Proposed Apartments
  220 gpd/unit  x  25 units  =  5,500 gpd

  Average Site Sanitary Flow:  =  5,500 gpd

  Peak Site Sanitary Flow:  =  22,000 gpd
  PF =  4.0

  * assume flow over  18 hour period

  Peak Site Sanitary Flow:  =  20.4  gpm

  8" inlet into pump station invert:  670.68

  Forcemain invert at tie into downstream sewer:  676.55

  Pump chamber diameter:  5  ft  (  147 gal/ft)

 Storge required:
  * use filling time of  30 minutes  @  20.4 gpm  (peak flow)

  Storage required =  20.4 gpm x  30 mins  =  4.16 ft
  147 gal

  Top of pump station:  682.40
  Inlet & Alarm:  670.68
  2 pumps on:  670.18  (inlet minus 0.5 ft)
  1 pump on:  669.68  (2 pumps on minus 0.5 ft)
  pumps off:  665.52  (1 pump on minus storage required)
  Bottom of station:  664.27  (pumps off minus 1.15 ft)

  Total depth:  18.13  ft

Cleansing velocity:

  Using a  3 inch forcemain, find flow for min 2 fps cleansing velocity

  A=  0.05  ft2

  2
  Q=VxA=  2 fps  x  0.05 ft  =  0.09817 cfs =  44.1  gpm
