Brief Description of Project and Relevance to this Contract (include scope, size, and cost) General Engineering Services: <strong>Tetra</strong> <strong>Tech</strong>, as a subconsultant, is assisting the Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department (MDWASD) with the renewal, improvement, and process optimization of the South Dade water system, including its largest water treatment plant. The Alexander Orr, Jr. Water Treatment Plant (Orr WTP) is one of the largest water treatment plants in the southeastern United States. The Orr WTP treats Biscayne Aquifer water with lime softening, filtration, and disinfection. This project was established to identify and implement project needs to maintain efficient operation of the Orr WTP and system and the South Miami-Dade water treatment plants and systems, which provide potable water to much of Miami-Dade County. Task Authorization No.1 included preparing a facility assessment of the Orr WTP. We assisted in the preparation of the facility assessment completed in February 2010, which included the evaluation and recommendation of equipment repairs, replacements and/or improvements, associated planning-level cost estimates and a prioritization schedule of the identified facility needs for the Orr WTP. The purpose of the facility assessment was to produce a descriptive, prioritized schedule of required renewal and replacement (R&R) projects, capital projects, and operation and maintenance (O&M) projects to assist MDWASD personnel to continue to effectively operate the facility and meet permit requirements. Task Authorization No. 2 includes assisting with the development of the basis of design, construction contract documents, cost estimates, permitting, and construction phase services for the Orr WTP Lime Kiln Upgrade. Construction phase services will include bidding, construction administration, inspection, start-up and project close-out services. Task Authorization No. 9 includes assisting with the evaluation of available options to redirect the effluent flow from the Orr WTP’s Hyrotreaters® to the chlorine contact/settling basins. The analysis focuses on options that allow the Plant staff to place individual settling basin(s) and associated influent channel(s) out of service for maintenance and repairs. This study will result in a conceptual level design evaluation with associated planning level engineer’s opinion of Project Highlights • Provides renewal, improvement, and optimization for the majority of the MDWASD system • upgrading one of the largest and oldest lime softening treatment plants in the southeast United States • Project Value – $1,000.000 • Disciplines covered; Water, Wastewater, Electrical Engineer (Electrical/Instrumentation), Finance/Capital Planning probable construction costs for MDWASD’s consideration and direction for subsequent detailed design efforts and corresponding construction improvements, as applicable. Task Authorization No. 11, includes assisting with a detailed Process Optimization Study for the Orr WTP. This study will focus on providing a prioritized and phased recommended process improvement plan for this facility. Process equipment efficiency and anticipated life-spans optimization will include: • Improved performance of the lime softening process to optimize/reduce the quantity of treatment chemicals utilized. • Enhanced solids separation performance that may eliminate the need for “chlorine contact/settling basins”, improve filter run times, control filtered water turbidity and reduce overall solids handling requirements. • <strong>Inc</strong>reased control of the recarbonation process to reduce or eliminate the corrosion of contact structures. • <strong>Inc</strong>reased treatment process automation to optimize plant maintenance and improve process control to support potable water quality objectives. • Replacement of selected equipment that is approaching its useful service life or represents out-of-date treatment technology systems to improve process effectiveness that delivers operation and maintenance cost savings. 4 Page 36 F-1 FORM SF330 PART I
