ATTACHMENT I EXISTING SOUTH LAREDO WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT

Transcription

1 ATTACHMENT I EXISTING SOUTH LAREDO WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT The existing South Laredo Wastewater Treatment Plant (SLWWTP), located at 309 Riverfront Road, has recently completed upgrading the plant capacity from 6.0 MGD to 12.0 MGD with the next phase to treat 18.0 MGD capacity to be completed in two (2) years. This RFQ will be initially for the 12.0 MGD with the final phase of the Operation Manual when the 18.0 Expansion is finalized. The SLWWTP treats wastewater with activated sludge Two Stage Anoxic Bio-Reactor Nutrients Removal Wastewater Treatment process. The treatment plant has the following process units: 1) Influent pump station; 2) Odor control unit; 3) Electrical building; 4) Headworks bar screen, grit trap, and odor control; 5) Aeration basins Anoxic and Aerobic zones; 6) Blower buildings; 7) RAS/WAS pump station; 8) Clarifiers; 9) Chlorine building; 10) Chlorine contact basins; 11) Non-potable water system; 12) Aerated Sludge Holding tank; 13) Dewatering building; 14) Septage Receiving Station; 15) Flow Meters; 16) Sampling; 17) Emergency diesel generators; and, 18) SCADA system. The recent expansion of the wastewater treatment plant included the replacement of the abandoned Extended Aeration activated sludge treatment process to the new Two Stage Anoxic Bio-Reactor Nutrients Removal Wastewater Treatment process. The new treatment process and the upgrading of the plant equipment require a new Operation and Maintenance Manual (O&M Manual), including the Standard Operation Procedures (SOP) for various process unit as mandated by the Texas Commission on Environment Quality (TCEQ). With this, the City is soliciting engineering consulting firms with extensive experience in Two Stage Anoxic Bio-Reactor Biological Nutrients Removal Wastewater Treatment process and preparation of O&M Manual in searchable Adobe Portable Document format (pdf) to submit Request for Qualification (RFQ) for this engineering service.
