Cleanup and Cooperation. 1.0 This factor reflects the extent to which a discharger voluntarily cooperates in returning to compliance and correcting environmental damage. A multiplier between 0.75 and 1.5 is used, with a higher multiplier when there is a lack of cleanup or cooperation. In this case, the Discharger responded to each spill in a manner that is reasonable and prudent, and as expected for a sewer district of its size. The Discharger appropriately followed its Sanitary Sewer Overflow Response Plan, a component of the 2019 Sewer System Management Plan, as is expected of a discharger enrolled in the SSS WDR. Therefore, a neutral multiplier of 1.0 is assigned.
