population projections prepared by the Department of City Planning, which in turn used the 2000
Census. A summary table for the 2045 projected flows and loads at each WPCP in New York
City is presented in Table 1-5 below.

1.3.1 Port Richmond
Future flows and loads were evaluated and used as a basis of design for the Port Richmond
WPCP. Table 1-6 shows the projections for the year 2045 for Port Richmond, which served as
the design year and the peak loads.

Flow and load peaking factors were based on representative plant-specific work at the East River
WPCPs during the development of the LISS BNR program. Table 1-7 shows the peaking
factors used in this analysis.
