SUPPLEMENTAL STATEMENT

(by J.D. Dumelle):

This case revolves on the Petitioner’s program of trans-

ferring the outlet for

a street drainage inlet from the 30”

combined

sewer

to the 48” storm sewer.

An inspection of Petitioner’s Exhibit 8C shows what

appears

to be another existing street inlet just west of the

manhole at the intersection of Main and Hickory streets.

If this inlet could also be reconnected to the 48” storm sewer

and disconnected from the 30” combined sewer then downstream

basement backups might be relieved,

at least in part.

There may be other street drainage inlets along

Main

Street north of Hickory Street that could also be reconnected

to the storm sewer and removed from the combined sewer.

The

village of Lombard should check this low cost possibility

of reducing damage and danger from basement backups in this

area.
