The above life cycle cost summary shows that the NeV of Options 1,2, 3,4, 5,<br />

and 6a are all within approximately 20 percent of each other, with Option 2<br />

(decommission Blackbum WWTP and transfer all flows by gravity sewer to<br />

the Lansdowne Road WWTP) having the lowest overall cost. All options<br />

involving the installation of a mechanical secondary treatment plant at the<br />

<strong>Blackburn</strong> site (Options 6b, 7a and 7b) have a significantly higher cost than the<br />

flow transfer options.
