Understanding Risk at Wastewater Treatment Plants in Tampa Bay During Extreme High-Precipitation Events

Improved understanding of environmental conditions causing sewer and stormwater overflows in the Tampa Bay region will be obtained by developing a risk model based on precipitation, storm surge, and water utility records. The model will then be used to predict future probability of overflow under accepted sea level rise scenarios.
