The paper assesses the environmental risks of the impact of sewer networks on the whole of the environment components such as atmospheric air, soils and water environment as a prerequisite for sustainable urban development. An algorithmic support for the analysis of environmental risks that occur during operation or in case of emergencies in sewer networks has been developed. The risk assessment was performed for 11 sewer shafts in Kharkiv based on field measurements: for atmospheric air, according to four environmentally hazardous gaseous substances generated in sewer networks; for water environment and soils, according to 12 indicators and pollutants. A high level of environmental risk to atmospheric air has been found in three shafts. Environmental risks to the water environment and soils are imposed by phosphates and synthetic surfactants.s [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
