Assumes additional <br />basement floor space is not required. Includes funds for landscaping in vicinity of thickeners. <br />Justification: Provides additional capacity for WAS thickening and, along with addition of primary thickening, <br />,• will help to eliminate the need for additional digester capacity. <br />Project Driver: Additional capacity to provide WAS thickening with one unit ofFline at WWMW upper limit flow <br />projections. Nitrification required by the NPDES permit and increasing wastewater flows and <br />loads generates more WAS solids: Provide ability to conduct recuperative thickening so that <br />- need for additional digestion volume can potentially be deferred. <br />Project Trigger: Exceeding solids and hydraulic loading rate design criteria. The latest evaluations of need for <br />Waste Activated Sludge thickening indicates a need by about 2012 or later. After the secondary <br />treatment modifications are completed and operational for a time, the timing of need for this <br />project should be reevaluated. <br />Project Type: 100% Capacity <br />Estimated Project Cost: $3,391,000 (2012 dollars) <br />Expected.
