Doc. No.:
301-00-CL-SPC-00013
CONTRACTOR: Rev. 0
2.1 GENERAL
All plant drainage and sewer systems shall be designed to meet local laws and regulations.
Items to be considered in the design include the following: incompatibility of wastewaters,
wastewater volumes and flows, fire protection and loss prevention, area topography, depth of
excavation, pumping requirements, and final disposal.
2.2 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Plant drainage and sewer systems shall be designed to be free flowing, to collect and convey
all wastewaters to their final disposition, and to prevent fire hazards from spreading from one
area to another.
Different types of wastewaters shall be segregated in order to reduce the size, complexity, and
costs of any treatment facility which must be required for managing these wastewaters before
final discharge from the site. For requirements relating to segregating wastewaters, refer to
Project Specification NFEF-64-87-PR-TS-NA-001, WASTE WATER SEGREGATION &
TREATMEN, NFEF-302-87-PR-DP-NA-001,DESIGN PHILOSOPHY OF WASTE WATER
SEGREGATION and NFEF-MG-87-PR-DP-NA-601, WASTE WATER SEGREGATION
PHILOSOPHY NFE MEG PROJECT.
Sewer line inverts shall slope continuously downstream throughout the system such that no low
points or traps are created in sewer lines.
Plant drainage and sewer systems shall include the following separate systems.
2.2.1 Clean Water Sewers (CWS)
Discharges to these systems include non-contact stormwater, roadways and access area
drainage, parking lot, roof drainage, landscape areas, walkways and possibly firewater.

contaminated wastewater streams, and possibly firewater. This system is composed of drain
hubs, laitches, catch basins, sumps, lift stations, manholes, and piping. Oily waters shall be
collected in oily water collection pit and be disposed by pumping and/or by vacuum to oily
water treatment facility.
2.2.3 Sanitary Sewers (SAN)
Discharges to these systems typically consist of wastewaters from toilets, showers, sinks,
floor drains in washroom and locker areas, and kitchen and cafeteria operations. Sanitary
Sewers shall not receive discharges from other sources. Sanitary sewerage shall be
conveyed to sanitary collection pit installed near each building and be disposed by pumping
and/or by vacuum to sanitary treatment facility.
2.2.4 Chemical Sewers (CHS)
Discharges to these systems typically consist of wastewaters containing chemical sustances

such as acid, alkaline, or amines.
Chemical liquid spills shall be lead to the collection pits located inside of the process area
through catch basins and manholes by underground sewer system. First flush volume of
stormwater or fire water contained chemical liquid spills shall be collected by collection pit,
but stormwater and fire water after first flush shall be diverted to Clean Water Sewer
systems. Refer to Project Specification Doc. No. NFEF-64-87-PR-DB-NA-001, EFFLUENT
AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT DESIGN BASIS.
Acidic or caustic waste lines shall not discharge to Oily Water Sewers unless the waste has
first been neutralized or treated to be compatible with the Oily Water Sewer materials and
non-reactive with the industrial waste. Method of neutralization or treatment will be specified.
Corrosive chemical floor drains and catch basins shall be piped to a chemically resistant
sump or Chemical Sewers. Floor drains and catch basins shall have chemical resistant
slotted covers or grates.
Drainage in Safety shower are shall be routed to Chemical Sewers.
2.2.5 LNG / LPG Spill Containment Sewer from Pool Fire Area
Pool Fire Area is an area where liquid spill is foreseen when LNG / LPG leakage occurs.
LNG / LPG spills shall be lead to the spill impounding basin located inside of the process
area through graded (Minimum 1/100) pavement and gutters via fire water discharge pit.
PROJECT:
Doc. No.:
301-00-CL-SPC-00013
CONTRACTOR: Rev. 0
One spill impounding basin may be connected with two (2) or three (3) pool fire areas by the
gutters. LNG / LPG liquid spill shall be collected in the spill impounding basin, while
stormwater and firewater shall be diverted to Clean Water Sewer (CWS) Systems. Refer to
Project Specification . 301-91-EL-DEC-00002, COMMON NFXP3 –CLASSIFICATION OF
HAZARDOUS LOCATION BASIS OF DESIGN.
3. DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
3.1 SYSTEM DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Plant drainage and sewer systems shall be able to convey the volumes of process
wastewater, Sanitary Sewer, dike drainage, stormwater, and firewater that are expected
during the operation of the facility. The quality of each wastewater stream shall be
determined, and each stream shall be segregated in accordance with the requirements of
Project Specification NFEF-64-87-PR-TS-NA-001, WASTE WATER SEGREGATION &
TREATMENT.
Plant sewer systems receiving process wastewater only shall be sized based on the
maximum design flowrate and the minimum pipe sizes given in Section 3.3.3.
For drainage and sewer systems receiving process wastewater, stormwater, and firewater,
the size of the oily Oily Water Sewers (OWS) and Chemical Sewers (CHS) shall be based
upon the maximum flow of continuous process wastewater plus stormwater, or the maximum
flow of continuous process waste water plus intermittent process water, whichever quantity
is greater. Minimum pipe sizes shall also meet Section 3.2.2 and 3.3.3.
Open ditches are acceptable for collection of non-contact stormwater.
Natural sheet runoff is acceptable from unused plant areas that are not contaminated.
Design of Sanitary Sewers (SAN) shall be based on the maximum design flowrate.
Sewer systems shall be be designed in flood conditions. Drainage and sewer systems shall
be designed to operate principally by gravity. Pipes shall be at levels and gradients to match
with design condition.
All ditches inside the process, utility and after area where operational access is granted shall
be covered with gratings or other means for safety purposes. LNG/LPG spill ditches shall
not be fully enclosed at any point. Where hazard exists (e.g. deep ditches), open ditches
along road shall be guarded against personnel or vehicle accidental ingress .

Doc. No.:
301-00-CL-SPC-00013
CONTRACTOR: Rev. 0
3.2.1 Stormwater Flow
A. The Method - The method used in the design of stormwater sewer systems is
commonly referred to as the Rational Method. The Rational Formula used to determine
the design flow is as follows:
Q = 0.00278 CIA (Sl units)
Q = CIA (Customary units)
Where:
Q: the peak flowrate at the particular point in the sewer under consideration,
m3/s (ft3/s).
C: the runoff coefficient for the catchment area. This coefficient is the ratio of
the amount of runoff flowing from the catchment to the total amount of rainfall
that falls on the catchment area, dimensionless.
I: the design rainfall intensity for the calculated time of concentration, mm/h
(in./h).
A: the size of the catchment area contributing runoff to the sewer, hectares
(acres).
The Design rainfall intensity “I” shall be 21 mm/hr (25-year, 90min. duration) for
collections of contact-storm water such as oily contaminated drains and chemical
contaminated drains, and 33 mm/hr (25-year, 45min. duration) for non-contact storm
water collections as shown in TBD1108, ONSHORE PROJECT DESIGN DATA and
shall be constant without consideration of time of concentration or rainfall duration.
PROJECT:
Doc. No.:
301-00-CL-SPC-00013
CONTRACTOR: Rev. 0
Exception may be allowed to downstream main line using IDF curve (Fig-1), if time of
concentration is more than 1 hour, subject to COMPANY approval. A 25-year return
period shall be used.
B. The Runoff Coefficient – Runoff coefficients vary from 0.5 to 1.0, depending upon the
following factors: slope and irregularity of the catchment, type and permeability of the
catchment soils or materials of construction, degree of soil saturation, and type
and extent of vegetation present in the catchment.
Typical values for runoff coefficients are listed below.
Roofs 1.00
Asphalt or concrete paving 1.00
Macadamized (sprayed) roadways 0.70
Stone, Gravel 0.50
Bare offsite area or tank farms:
Clay soils 0.70
Sandy soils 0.60

Grassy areas:
Clay soils 0.50
Sandy soils 0.50
All area including future space shall be accounted for in the drainage design
C. Computations – Computations shall be set up in tabular form with values of catchment

areas, runoff coefficients and overland, and design rainfall intensity shown for each
area. Care shall be taken to ensure that the correct combination of areas is chosen to
yield the maximum flow.
D. Detention – Detention method that will reduce the flowrate into the sewer system
may reduce sewer size. Runoff discharge into sewers may only be reduced by
impounding the runoff in tank farms, impoundments, or tanks if approved by
COMPANY.

from catchment area to adjacent catchment area, ditches and other units to prevent potential
flooding and spread of fire.
As a minimum:
A. Sublaterals shall be designed for a minimum of 500 gpm (110m3/h) from each catch
basin.
B. Laterals and mains within process and loading areas shall be sized to handle the

and a 50% load increase for impact unless otherwise specified.
For rigid pipe, a bedding factor based on the method and class of bedding selected, pipe
crushing strength based on the three edge method, and a safety factor of 1.5 for the
applicable ASTM pipe material standard shall be used to establish the safe supporting
strength (design load) of the pipe.
For flexible pipe other than ductile iron, a bedding constant and modulus of soil reaction based
on the method and class of bedding, a pipe stiffness based on a parallel-plate loading test,
and safety factor of 2 applied to the critical deflection limit for the applicable ASTM pipe
material standard shall be used to establish the design deflection limit of the pipe.
For ductile iron pipe, the minimum pipe thickness/strength shall be according to ASTM A 746
or AWWA C151/A21.52 for the laying condition selected, or shall be based on a maximum
design deflection of 3 percent and design ring bending stress of 48 psi (330 Mpa) using the
modulus of soil reaction, and deflection and bending coefficients based on the method and
class of bedding selected.
6.3 LINE PROTECTION
PROJECT:
Doc. No.:
301-00-CL-SPC-00013
CONTRACTOR: Rev. 0
Under roadways and vehicle-trafficked areas, sewer lines requiring protection shall be
encased in a concrete envelope or in a sleeve providing a 75 mm (3 in.) minimum total
clearance. Subject to COMPANY approval, these lines may be covered with a load-bearing
steel plate or concrete slab as an alternative to concrete envelope or sleeve. Verification of
such alternative means of protection shall be the responsibility of CONTRACTOR.
6.4 TESTING
6.4.1 General
All sewer systems shall be water tested before backfilling for water tightness.
Backfilling shall only proceed after COMPANY approval of sewer tests has been
obtained by CONTRACTOR.
Testing shall be carried out from manhole to manhole. Short branch drains connected
to a main sewer between manholes shall be tested as one system with the main sewer.
Long branches shall be tested separately from manholes.
6.4.2 Water Test
CONTRACTOR shall prepare a method statement and program for all drain and sewer
water tests and obtain approval of COMPANY prior to proceeding with such tests.
CONTRACTOR is responsible for the supply of all water required for tests and for its
disposal on completion of testing.
Drains and sewers shall be subjected to an internal pressure test with a head of water
at least 3 m (10 ft) above the crown of the pipe at the high end, but not more than 6.1
m (20 ft) at the low end. Steeply graded sewers shall be tested in stages if the 6.1 m
(20 ft) maximum head limitation would be exceeded shall the whole section be tested
at the same time. A standpipe shall be employed to ascertain that the specified head is
obtained.
Since some piping materials absorb more water than others, and some piping
configurations trap more air at the joints than others, an allowance can be made by
adding water to maintain the test head for appropriate periods. The test shall commence
approximately one hour after filling the pipe with water.
The loss of water over a period of thirty (30) minutes shall be measured by adding water
from a measuring vessel at 10-minute intervals and noting the quantity required to
maintain the original water level. For this test, the average quantity added shall not
exceed 0.98 liter per an hour per a hundred (100) meters linear distance per centimeter

of nominal internal sewer diameter (0.2 gallon per hour per 100 linear feet per inch of
nominal internal sewer diameter). However, if local codes are more stringent, they shall
be followed.
Pipe leakage that causes a drop in the test water level will be apparent by the change
in the water level in the standpipe. Any leaks visible during water testing shall be
corrected. Defective parts of the sewer system being tested shall be removed, replaced,
and re-tested.
Sewers failing leakage testing shall be repaired to the satisfaction of COMPANY.
