REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
BOZEMAN WATER RECLAMATION FACILITY SOLIDS HANDLING EXPANSION
INTRODUCTION
The City of Bozeman (“COB”) requests proposals from consultants qualified to provide professional engineering
services to expand the solids handling facility at the Bozeman Water Reclamation Facility (WRF). The solids
process at the WRF consists of: primary clarification; primary sludge gravity thickening and fermentation;
primary sludge anaerobic digestion; secondary clarification; secondary sludge rotating screen thickening; scum
collection and dissolved air floatation/thickening; secondary sludge and scum anaerobic digestion; and screw
press thickening of digested solids. The solids process feeds primary sludge in series through anaerobic
digesters No. 1 and No. 2. Primary sludge is then combined with thickened secondary sludge and scum in
aerobic digester No. 3. Digester 3 solids are dewatered through a single screw press to form a sludge cake
product that is routed on an overhead conveyor belt to the bed of a haul truck housed within an enclosed truck
bay. The cake is then hauled off to Logan Landfill for final disposal.
The existing solids handling building is a two‐level structure consisting of basement and main‐level spaces. The
basement is generally occupied with solids process piping, digester gas piping, a heat exchanger, high‐strength
waste tank, pumps and I&C equipment. The main level of the building houses secondary sludge rotating screen
thickeners, coagulant storage and feed system, and a single screw press. Current solids handling capacity is
limited by the output of the single screw press. In the event of the screw press malfunctioning, or it being down
for routine maintenance, solids continue to accumulate in the digesters leaving limited time to put the screw
press back online before digester overflow. Lack of screw press redundancy is the Achilles heel of the plant.
This project seeks to increase the solids handling capacity through the addition of a second/redundant screw
press. The existing solids handling building must be expanded to provide sufficient space to place and operate
this equipment. Additional building expansion space is also desired to shelter the two trucks used in rotation to
collect and haul sludge cake to the landfill.
With the expansion to the solids handling building, the HVAC system of the building needs evaluation and
upgrade. The existing building HVAC is designed to operate as a 55degF space during cold weather periods. The
existing building also suffers from inadequate ventilation, which is likely due to an imbalance in makeup and
exhaust air to and from the building. This condition is believed to pull makeup air from the building drain
system, which has produced elevated concentrations of hydrogen sulfide in the main building space. These
HVAC issues must be corrected with the building expansion, including upgrading the system to operate as a
68degF space during cold weather periods.
The budget available for design and construction is $1,500,000. Attached to this RFP to aid in proposal
preparation are process diagrams and design criteria for the existing WRF facility.

Task 1 – Pre‐Design Investigation Phase
Consult with COB to define and clarify requirements for the project, including design objectives and constraints,
space, capacity, and performance requirements, flexibility and expandability, and any budgetary limitations, and
identify available data, information, reports, facilities plans, and site evaluations. Prepare a report which will, as
appropriate, contain schematic layouts, sketches, and conceptual design criteria with appropriate exhibits to
indicate agreed‐to requirements, considerations involved, and Engineer’s recommended solution(s). For each
recommended solution, Engineer will provide the following: opinion of probably construction cost, proposed
allowances for contingencies, the estimated total costs of design, professional, and related services to be
provided by Engineer.
Task 2 – Preliminary Design Phase
Conduct any necessary field investigation and survey and prepare preliminary design phase documents
consisting of final design criteria, preliminary drawings, outline specifications and written descriptions of the
project. Based on information contained in the preliminary design phase documents, prepare a revised opinion
of probable construction cost and assist with tabulating the various cost categories which comprise total project
costs.
Task 3 – Final Design Phase
Obtain any necessary approvals from governmental authorities having jurisdiction to review or approve the final
design. Prepare final drawings and specifications, construction contract documents and bidding related
documents and make any necessary adjustments to the opinion of probable construction cost.
Task 4 – Bidding or Negotiating Phase
Assist COB in obtaining bids for the project, attend pre‐bid conference, prepare and issue Addenda as
appropriate to clarify, correct, or change the issued bidding documents. Review bids and Contractor references
and qualifications for performing the work and provide a recommendation to COB for contract award.
Task 5 – Construction Phase
Consult with COB and act as COB’s construction representative as provided in the construction contract. Provide
the services of a resident project representative for extensive observation of the Contractor’s work. Receive,
review, and determine the acceptability of any and all schedules that Contractor is required to submit to

acceptability of the Work thereunder. Claims, disputes and other matters relating to the acceptability of the Work or the
interpretation of the requirements of the Contract Documents pertaining to the performance and furnishing of the Work and
claims under The General Conditions of the Construction Contract in respect of changes in the Contract Price or Contract
Time will be referred initially to ENGINEER in writing with a request for a formal decision in accordance with this
paragraph, which ENGINEER will render in writing within a reasonable time. Written notice of each such claim, dispute
and other matter shall be promptly reported and copied to the OWNER.
10.9.2. When functioning as interpreter under paragraphs 10.8 and 10.9.1, ENGINEER will not show partiality to
OWNER or CONTRACTOR and will not be liable in connection with any interpretation or decision rendered in good faith
in such capacity. The rendering of a decision by ENGINEER pursuant to paragraphs 10.8 and 10.9.1 with respect to any
