A sewage system configured for wildfire emergency response, comprising:
- a wastewater reclamation and reuse subsystem comprising:
- a plurality of septage interceptor tanks receiving raw sewage from one or more parcels in a wildland urban interface and producing a primary effluent;
- one or more secondary treatment facilities receiving the primary effluent from the septage interceptor tanks and producing a secondary effluent;
- one or more tertiary treatment facilities receiving a portion of the secondary effluent from the secondary treatment facilities and producing a tertiary effluent;
- one or more non-potable water reservoirs, including one or more seasonal water storage and one or more seasonal aquifer recharge dispersal sites;
- a pressure sewage system configured to deliver the primary effluent, the secondary effluent, and the tertiary effluent, wherein at least a portion of the secondary effluent and the tertiary effluent is stored in the one or more non-potable water reservoirs and at least a portion of the tertiary effluent is stored in one or more operational storage sites;
- a water supply distribution and wildfire defense subsystem receiving a potable water supply and a non-potable water supply from the wastewater reclamation and reuse subsystem, the water supply distribution and wildfire defense subsystem comprising:
- a plurality of individually separable water distribution zones,
- wherein the water distribution zones comprise a service connection at each of the one or more parcels and in between adjacent water distribution zones in proximity thereto,
- an auxiliary high-pressure non-potable water supply;
- a buffer zone irrigation network distributed around the one or more parcels;
- a wildfire defense network;
- a plurality of data processing devices communicatively coupled through a network, each of the data processing devices comprising one or more processors, a network adapter, and a memory storing instructions executable by the one or more processors to:
- receive device data and environmental data from the data processing devices and receive third party data;
- detect, based on the device data, the environmental data, and the third-party data, one or more precursors to a wildfire emergency in and/or around the one or more parcels;
- issue control signals which positively control and operate both the wastewater reclamation and reuse subsystem and the water supply distribution and wildfire defense subsystem by actuating one or more:
- zone isolation valves to direct or block flow between water distribution zones;
- pressure-reducing valves at service connections to regulate pressure;
- pumps to deliver non-potable water from the non-potable water reservoirs to the buffer zone irrigation network and/or the wildfire defense network;
- and foam surfactant injection systems of the wildfire defense network,
- wherein the control signals are selected according to a ruleset that maps the detected one or more precursors to at least one of the foregoing actuations to provide a proportionate response in advance of, and in real time during, the wildfire emergency.
