Introduction to Fairfax County’s ENR Program
• In August 2004, the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) proposed reduced nutrient waste load allocations for Virginia wastewater treatment facilities.
• These load allocations were then incorporated into the Virginia’s Phase I Watershed Implementation Plan for meeting the EPA Chesapeake Bay Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL).

![Page 9: Fairfax County’s Water Reuse Project · 2018-04-04 · Introduction to Fairfax County’s Water Reuse project • 2006 –The Development plan was complete, • 2007 - The water](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042114/5e90f96b069255698a64707d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Introduction to Fairfax County’s ENR Program
• To meet the load allocations, enhanced nutrient removal was required of all wastewater treatment plants serving Fairfax County to meet more stringent Chesapeake Bay water quality standards by January 1, 2011.
• Nitrogen effluent limit (3 mg/L) and Waste Load Allocation (WLA) of 611,900 pounds.

Introduction to Fairfax County’s ENR Program
• 2005 - To meet the load allocations, we needed a program that included:– choosing the best technology,
– avoiding resource shortages generated by neighboring utilities also facing major nutrient removal programs at the same time,
– spreading out capital needs,
– maximizing federal and state funding,
– and most importantly maintaining the facility’s permit performance through the needed upgrades.

Introduction to Fairfax County’s ENR Program
• 2005 - In response to these challenges, the team develped a ENR program that included numerous unique and innovative components:
– Expansion of Equalization Basins
– Upgrades to the Activated Sludge Basins
– New Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR)
• (Other Presentation Today.)
– New Water Reuse System
– Nutrient Trading

Introduction to Fairfax County’s ENR Program
• 2006 – As part of the ENR Program we had Greeley and Hansen (G&H) develop a plan for water reuse within Fairfax County.
• The plan included:– Potential Users – Water Quality Analysis– Design Flow– Existing Infrastructure – Potential Nutrient Reduction– Recommendations– Costs / Payback Period
