Evansville
Water and
Sewer Utility (EWSU) - City of Evansville Septic Site Study
Owner - Evansville Water
and Sewer Utility (Evansville, IN)
Prepared a study to identify the location and condition of septic
sites within the Evansville city limits. A GIS based priority
ranking methodology was applied to septic sites and/or neighborhood
clusters of septic sites to plan for sewer extensions and effective
removal of septic systems. The scope included GIS based mapping
and proximity analysis showing the distribution of septic vs. sewer in
the City of Evansville, with informative base map overlays. GIS
mapping layers were developed. The study also included a report
along with priority ranking to bring sewer service to the identified
septic sites. The study will be used for planning efforts to
assist decision makers and staff to formulate more detailed plans and
action items.
