sump volume
My sump, although small, can handle the amount of water that would drain in the case of a power shut-off. I have tested it many times. It's just that it couldn't handle all the water in the 4" by 48" overflow area if I were to remove the durso pipe, (which I learned when I installed it incorrectly, {thankfully it was a very slow drain & the sump didn't overflow}).

The sump (75 gallon tank) is going to be set up so that it will be able to accomodate an extra 30 gallons which should cover both back flow and the overflow boxes.

I have ball valves on my drains
 Comes in pretty handy when you need to do modifications below the bulkhead. |

That's the only useful purpose for them there. The problem still exists, it's easy to forget that you left them closed.
