HomeMy WebLinkAboutDRAFT - WW Impact Fee CIP Project Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) Construction – Name: Phase I Estimated$53.8 Million – Total, Phase I Cost: Wastewater Plant – WW04 FY07 – FY12 ProjectDate Number:Scheduled: Purpose: New Replacement Facility Equipment Project The existing plant has reached its original design capacity of 5.8 MGD. Current organic loadings (lbs of BOD) now exceed the plant’s original design capacity Description: for BOD by more than 20%. These critical loading parameters clearly point to the need for a major facility expansion. The City’s current MPDES (Montana Pollution Discharge Elimination System) permit includes a compliance schedule that requires us to begin removing total nitrogen and total phosphorous by September 2011 to meet interim Nutrient Standards set by the State Department of Environmental Quality. In order to meet the requirements of this schedule, the city needs to move forward with the construction of a WRF facility, as our existing facility is not designed to remove nitrogen & phosphorous. Bids received for the WRF facility on October 1, 2008 put the total project costs at a low of $65.7 Million (low bid) to a high of over $80.5 Million (high bid.) Because the low bid was so much higher than our estimate, the project has been scaled back but will still meet our permit requirements established for September 2011. Total adjusted project price is now estimated at $53.8 Million. Alternatives A variety of treatment technologies and alternatives are presented in the January 2006 Wastewater Facilities Plan. Considered: Advantages Major capital expansion of the Bozeman WRF will enable the City to meet its ever growing demand for wastewater services and still produce a high quality of effluent that is in full compliance with the City’s MPDES discharge permit. Approving Expansion of the Bozeman WRF is consistent with the City’s long-term need to this Project: accommodate rapid growth and economic development in the Gallatin Valley. Estimated Annual Operating & Maintenance Costs: Similar to existing plant operations costs. The Facilities Plan estimates a total of $1,439,360 annually including all Future labor, power, chemicals, equipment maintenance, and equipment replacement. Recurring Costs: Funding FY07 Design: Total $3.9 Million 67% Wastewater Utility Cash = $2.33 Million Sources: 33% Wastewater Impact Fee Cash = $1.57 Million FY09 & FY10 & FY11 Construction: Total $49.9 Million 67% Wastewater Utility = $33.5 Million 33% Wastewater Impact Fee Eligible = $16.4 Million Eligible* *We anticipate having a minimum of $13.1 Million available from Impact Fees through the end of the construction period. Impact fee collections during the construction period will be dedicated to construction of the project. The remainder of eligible construction costs would be recovered via debt service on the Utility Revenue Bonds, as money is collected in the Impact Fee Fund.

Description: Existing portions of this collector are not sized for anticipated future development and the new portions of this collector, which will need to be constructed with development, will need to be oversized to meet future needs. It is estimated that 70% of this project costs will be due to capacity expansion and will be eligible for Wastewater Impact Fees. The remaining 30% of the project costs will need to be provided by a developer contribution or other source. At this time, the City’s Wastewater Utility does not have a need to replace the existing facility; as such, no utility dollars are scheduled to be spent. Alternatives Limit future development in the area. Considered: Advantages of If constructed to the line sizes master planned in the City’s Wastewater Facilities plan, capacity will be provided for anticipating the long-term future Approving this growth in this area. Project: Estimated New Annual Operating and Maintenance Costs: Impact fees can not fund operating and maintenance costs. The city’s wastewater utility will pay for Future these costs, which are estimated to be a small increment of the city’s Recurring system as a whole.

Description: The lower portion of the existing sewer is at capacity. Additional capacity is needed to serve the future Bozeman Deaconess Hospital development and lands to the south. It is estimated that 70% of this project costs will be due to capacity expansion and will be eligible for Wastewater Impact Fees. The remaining 30% of the project costs will need to be provided by a developer contribution or other source. At this time, the City’s Wastewater Utility does not have a need to replace the existing facility; as such, no utility dollars are scheduled to be spent. Alternatives Limit development to only that capacity of the existing sewer. Considered: Advantages of This project will significantly increase the service area and capacity of the trunk sewer. Approving this Project: Estimated New Annual Operating and Maintenance Costs: Impact fees can not fund operating and maintenance costs. The city’s wastewater utility will pay for Future Recurring these costs, which are estimated to be a small increment of the city’s Costs: system as a whole.

This is an important connection for public safety purposes – allowing fire service to meet their response time requirements in areas where they currently cannot. The Wastewater infrastructure should be installed at the same time the street connection is made. Alternatives Do nothing and wait for development to connect the infrastructure. Considered: Advantages of Improved traffic flow and better emergency response to the local area. Approving this Project: Estimated New Annual Operating & Maintenance Costs: Future Recurring Costs: Funding 100% Wastewater Impact Fee – to be recovered by developer payback.

The plan recommends the City Description: proceed with a 3-phased project schedule that includes the construction of a new Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) that is capable of handling our increased flows while also reducing the amount of Total Nitrogen discharged to the East Gallatin River. Phase I of the Plant improvements are scheduled for FY07-FY11. This project is for the Engineering Pre-Design work and the Final Engineering Design work for Phase II of the project. This phase will include one new primary clarifier, more BNR reactor basins & clarifiers, tertiary deep bed filtration, liquid sludge storage tanks, anaerobic digestion, dewatering cake storage building and effluent re-use pumping station. The vast majority of the Phase II improvements are capacity expanding, and the project is estimated to be 100% impact fee eligible. However, once design work begins, we will be continually evaluating the impact fee eligibility of the features of the phase. Alternatives A variety of treatment technologies and alternatives are presented in the January 2006 Wastewater Facilities Plan. Considered: Advantages Major capital expansion of the Bozeman WRF will enable the City to meet its estimated demand for wastewater services and still produce a high quality of effluent that is in full compliance with the City’s MPDES discharge permit. Approving Expansion of the Bozeman WRF is consistent with the City’s long-term need to this Project: accommodate rapid growth and economic development in the Gallatin Valley. Estimated Annual Operating & Maintenance Costs: no estimates at this time. Future Recurring Costs: Funding 100% Wastewater Impact Fees Pre-Design: $899,891 Sources: Final Design: $4,328,477 . City of Bozeman Capital Improvements Plan FY11-15 Project Water Reclamation Facility – Phase I Debt Service Name: Estimated $4,870,000 Principal, plus accrued interest Cost: Wastewater Impact Fees – FY12- ProjectDate WWIF14unknown Number:Scheduled: Purpose: New Replacement Facility Equipment Project Total adjusted project price for the Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) construction of phase one is estimated at $53.8 Million. Description: Of that amount, $17.9 Million is for capacity expanding costs of construction. The impact fee account will not have enough cash on hand to pay the costs of construction when the facility is built. As such, impact fee revenues will be dedicated to pay the outstanding debt in future years, as fee revenues are collected. At this point, approximately $4.87 Million of impact fee eligible costs will be paid with a long-term loan (20 years, 3.75%) through the State’s Revolving Loan Fund. A debt schedule will be updated semi-annually with the amount of impact fee dollars that have been dedicated to debt payments until the full amount owed is paid.
