Home My WebLink AboutAdoption of the Wastewater Fund Capital Improvemen_14.pdf Commission Memorandum REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission FROM: Chris Kukulski, City Manager Anna Rosenberry, Finance Director SUBJECT: Adoption of the Wastewater Fund Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for FY14-18. AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Action MEETING DATE: November 26, 2012 RECOMMENDATION: Adoption of the Wastewater Fund Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for FY14-18. BACKGROUND: Each year, the City Manager is required to prepare a 5 Year Capital Improvements Plan and submit it to the Commission by December 15th. Staff met in November to develop the attached draft schedules. The Wastewater Fund CIP tracks the capital equipment replacements and construction projects for Wastewater Operations (collection system) and the Water Reclamation Facility. The largest change to the schedule is the desire to fund the WW29 – Energy Recovery (Methane Co-Generation) Project, beginning in FY14 with design/engineering work. It is believed that that project will yield operational savings after a relatively short pay-back period. These levels of capital expenditure are in line with our adopted rate models. 327 UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None. ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission. If the Commission is does not wish to adopt this schedule tonight, it can be scheduled for approval on a later agenda. FISCAL EFFECTS: This step in the process has no fiscal effect. Once adopted, the Capital Improvements Plan becomes the basis of the City Manager’s Recommended Budget for FY14.

This flusher vac truck is used daily to excavate around critical infrastructure i.e. fiber optics, gas, and electric lines in addition to flushing and vacuuming sewer mains. At time of replacement, this truck will be approximately 10 years old. The existing truck will be sold at auction. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Continue to use older vehicle which will be costly to maintain. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Increased reliability and safety for staff and wastewater operations. This piece of equipment eliminates costly repairs because we can avoid hitting utilities with a hoe and utilize the vacuum instead. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Annual Operating and Maintenance Costs: Operating and repair costs are expected to be lower than the existing vehicle. FUNDING SOURCES 100% Wastewater utility fund New Replacement Equipment Project FY17 FY18 339 CIP Project Fund Wastewater Fund PROJECT NUMBER WW27 DEPARTMENT WRF PLANT PROJECT NAME HDR Watershed Study and Stream Modeling FY14 $60,000 FY15 $60,000 FY16 $60,000 Unscheduled DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT Develop a comprehensive, multi-year watershed study and computer model for the East Gallatin River which would enable the City and DEQ to better determine stream load allocations and develop a more scientifically valid TMDL for the river segment we discharge to. This will require annual field sample collection, laboratory analytical work and detailed computer modeling using calibrated data. This multi-year study would consist of $45,000 in consulting and computer modeling fees for at least two fiscal years (FY14 and FY15) and stream sampling/lab fees of $15,000 each year. Craig recommends we should be prepared to continue this work beyond FY15 as necessary. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Not undertake this work and risk having to accept the TMDL and waste load allocations the DEQ has proposed in their original draft documents. This decision could greatly limit our ability to appeal future nutrient limitations and could result in non- compliance. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL This watershed study will greatly enhance the City’s understand of our impact on the East Gallatin River and enable us to more successfully negotiate future permit limitations with the DEQ. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED None, unless additional stream sampling is desired in subsequent years. FUNDING SOURCES 100% Wastewater Fund New Replacement Equipment Project FY17 $60,000 FY18 $60,000 340 CIP Project Fund Wastewater Fund PROJECT NUMBER WW28 DEPARTMENT WRF PLANT PROJECT NAME DESIGN PHASE II - WRF PLANT IMPROVEMENTS FY14 FY15 FY16 Unscheduled $5,230,000 DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT In January 2006 Morrison & Maierle Consulting Engineers completed a comprehensive Wastewater Facilities Plan. The plan recommends the City proceed with a 3-phased project schedule that includes the construction of the new Water Reclamation Facility (WRF), capable of handling our increased flows while also reducing the amount of Total Nitrogen discharged to the East Gallatin River. Phase two is expected to include one new primary clarifier, more BNR reactor basins, clarifiers, tertiary membrane filtration, liquid sludge storage tanks, anaerobic digestion, and an effluent re-use pumping station. The capacity expanding (impact fee eligible) elements are: bioreactor basins, clarifiers, and pumping station. It is possible that this phase of the project could be further divided into phase 2A and phase 2B, if necessary. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED A variety of treatment technologies and alternatives are presented in the January 2006 Wastewater Facilities Plan. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL 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 effluent that is in full compliance with the City’s MPDES discharge permit. Expansion of the Bozeman WRF is consistent with the City’s long-term need to accommodate rapid growth and economic development in the Gallatin Valley. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Annual Operating & Maintenance Costs: no estimates at this time. FUNDING SOURCES Total Design Cost: $5,230,000. We estimate the majority of the project costs are related to regulation and maintenance issues and would be borne by the Utility Fund. Half are related to capacity expansion, and would be borne by Impact Fees. 50% Wastewater Fund, 50% Wastewater Impact Fee Fund. New Replacement Equipment Project FY17 FY18 341 CIP Project Fund Wastewater Fund PROJECT NUMBER WW29 DEPARTMENT WRF PLANT PROJECT NAME ENERGY RECOVERY (METHANE CO-GENERATION) PROJECT FY14 $50,000 FY15 $350,000 FY16 $2,200,000 Unscheduled DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT Consistent with the goals of the City’s Climate Action Plan & Sustainability Programs, the Bozeman WRF staff and Public Works Director recommend we move forward with our proposed investigation and installation of a methane recovery and co- generation system. This system will produce an average of 175 kW of electricity and 974,000 BTU/hour of thermal output using a generator powered entirely by WRF digester gas. This project has the potential to save the City at least $180,000 in electricity costs and substantially lower the carbon footprint of the new Bozeman WRF. This project would be implemented in 3 phases including (1) a feasibility / cost effectiveness study, (2) project engineering / design and (3) the purchase and installation of appropriate technology for the co-generation of electricity at the Bozeman WRF. FY14: Project Feasibility Study. FY15: Project Engineering Design. FY16 Equipment Purchase and Installation ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Continue to flare our digester methane gas. Micro-turbines and fuel-cells have been analysed and continue to be possible alternative energy recovery technologies for this project. Our research to date suggests the most proven technology currently available to help us accomplish our energy recovery goals is likely to be a GE Jenbacher internal combustion engine and heat recovery system. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Current plant waste gases will be captured and utilized to reduce plant operating costs. The project has an estimated net dollar savings of $230,000 per year. It supports the City's Municipal Climate Action Plan goals. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Once construction is funded, this project results in an estimated net dollar SAVINGS of $230,000/year. FUNDING SOURCES Wastewater Fund, other grants or community partners. New Replacement Equipment Project FY17 FY18 342 CIP Project Fund Wastewater Fund PROJECT NUMBER WW30 DEPARTMENT WRF PLANT PROJECT NAME REPLACE DIGESTER MIXERS FY14 $42,000 FY15 FY16 Unscheduled DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT The Bozeman WRF needs to replace two defective/failing digester mixers. This equipment is essential to the operation of the existing anaerobic digesters. These digesters contain a total of 4 draft tube mixers, two of which have already been replaced. Our plan would be to purchase one replacement mixer in FY13 and the final one in FY14. The new EIMCO draft tube mixers will replace the defective OTI micers we are currently using. Our original OTI mixers have been plagued with multiple bearing failures, seal failures, oil lubrication system failures and almost constant propeller fouling. There are currently only two mixer manufactureers in the world that manufacture this type of draft tube mixer. Therefore, in order to replace these defective OTI mixers, we must order our replacement mixers from a sole source vendor. This vendor is EIMCO Technologies, in Salt Lake City. They are the only manufacturer capable of fabricating a replacement mixer which will mount directly to our existing digester draft tubes. EIMCO model #RDT-V 7.5 Hp mixer assembly. Installed project cost for each: $41,000. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Continue to remove, disassemble and rebuild our defective mixers annually. This is not cost-effective and is not a sustainable option. The annual cost to rebuild one unit is approximately $15,000 plus extensive staff time. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Digester methane which is currently wasted will be captured and utilized to reduce plant operating costs. The project has an estimated net dollar savings of between $180,000 and $230,000 per year. This project fully supports the City's Municipal Climate Action Plan goals. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Once construction is funded, this project will result in an estimated net dollar SAVINGS of at least $180,000 per year. FUNDING SOURCES Wastewater Fund, other grants or community partners. New Replacement Equipment Project FY17 FY18 343 CIP Project Fund Wastewater Fund PROJECT NUMBER WW31 DEPARTMENT WRF PLANT PROJECT NAME Replace Lift #1 Pump FY14 $19,000 FY15 FY16 Unscheduled DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT Replace one 30+ year old wastewater pump in Lift #1. These pumps are used to lift and return the overflow wastes from our Dissolved Air Floatation (DAF) tank back to the head of the plant for treatment. These old, obsolete pumps should be replaced with new, energy efficient submersible pumps. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Continue to use the old, unreliable, high maintnenace pumps currently in service ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL The DAF is a critical system that is used to thicken waste activated sludge. New pumps for our DAF will greatly enhance the mechanical reliability of this system and increase operating efficiency ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED None - new pumps will be more energy efficient and should lower operating costs. FUNDING SOURCES 100% Wastewater Fund New Replacement Equipment Project FY17 FY18 344 CIP Project Fund Wastewater Fund PROJECT NUMBER WW32 DEPARTMENT WRF PLANT PROJECT NAME WRF Fishing Access - Latrine FY14 $10,000 FY15 FY16 Unscheduled DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT The City has contractually agreed to install a latrine at the new FWP fishing access site located along the north property boundary of the Water Reclamation Facility. This new access site was built to provide the public with access to the East Gallatin River ajacent to the new WRF. This work was undertaken in conjunction with the recently completed upgrade to the WRF but no funding for the latrine was included in the original project. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Delay the installation of this latrine. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL This latrine will enhance user-friendliness of the new FWP river access site. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED None - FWP has agreed to fund the maintenance and operation of the latrine.
