HOME CONTACT US BECOME A MEMBER Design-Build Project In October 2006, the City of Clovis awarded the design, construction, and long-term operations of a new $37-million 2.8-mgd ST/WRF to CH2M HILL. The new ST/WTF will fulfill the City of Clovis area growth needs and provide highly treated recycled water. The project earned multiple industry awards. Clovis Sewage Treatment and Water Reclamation Facility (CA) The City of Clovis solicited proposals for the design, construction, and operation of a new Sewage Treatment/Water Reuse Facility capable of 2.8 mgd average daily flow (expandable to 8.4 mgd) with 10 years operations and maintenance (O&M). The process design must reliably meet or exceed its goal for cost, effluent quality, aesthetics, and environmental impact. Additionally, the design must handle uncertainties in the influent load to the ST/WRF and future expansion needs. CH2M HILL developed a solution to reliably meet the City s goals using proven process solutions in combination with innovative solids reduction technology.

In addition to MBR, Siemens Cannibal solids reduction process has been incorporated into the new ST/WRF. The Cannibal process greatly reduces solids production with consequent capital and operating cost savings. It virtually eliminates biosolids production, which eliminates the need for expensive dewatering and digestion equipment and associated costs. Design and construction of the treatment plant began in late 2006 and was substantially completed on June 5th The facility is designed to blend in with the residential and business community. Architectural features include prairie-style architecture, water features, and extensive landscaping and screening to minimize visual impact. The facility also includes extensive odor control, including reuse of odorous air within the treatment process and biofilters The project was delivered on budget with zero lost time incidents in over 150,000 man-hours completed to date. CH2M HILL is operating and maintaining the facility, chemicals, capital maintenance repair and replacement, membrane maintenance and replacement, residual solids disposal, and guaranteed maximum energy usage through Project is an Award Winner The Clovis project has been honored with numerous industry awards, including: 2008 Environmental Business Journal Wastewater Project Merit Award American Academy of Environmental Engineers Design Honor Award for Excellence Finalist, Global Water Intelligence s 2009 Water Reuse Project of the Year 2009 Award of Merit from the WateReuse Association Design-Build Institute of America Excellence Award for Projects over $15 Million info@waterdesignbuild.org Copyright 2013 Water Design-Build Council Policies Terms facebook.com/waterdesignbuildcouncil Join Our List Website by Smart Solutions Maryland Web Development 2 of 2 7/20/14, 11:04 PM

The wastewater treatment/water reuse facility, commissioned by Clovis, Calif., will relieve the demand on underground and surface water supplies and will provide recycled water for irrigation, especially as the region s population continues to grow. The $40 million facility will begin operations in March. Clovis partnered with CH2M HILL to build this facility with innovative technology, which makes it a great neighbor, provides recycled water and also reduces costs throughout the life-cycle of the equipment, says Dave Jones, CH2M HILL Vice President. The EBJ Business Achievement Award honors the commitment the city has shown to the environment and its citizens.

Membrane bioreactors provide the opportunity for better automation, reduced facility size and treatment performance. Additionally, the patented Cannibal sludge reduction system will reduce the amount of biosolids significantly and is the largest application of the technology to date in California. The design-build-operate contract was a departure from Clovis normal customary procurement method and provided opportunity to consider investments over the life of the contract. The single-source alternative helped overcome current market conditions to finance the project at a competitive price. CH2M HILL OMI will operate the facility for 10 years and provide support for potential second and third phase expansions that would increase the daily capacity to 8.4 mgd. Other noteworthy features include reduced physical presence, advanced odor treatment, landscaping and Prairie-Style architecture to create a neighbor-friendly treatment plant. The EBJ Business Achievement Awards are awarded annually for projects that support the environmental industry. CH2M HILL won in the technology merit: water/wastewater category.
