CPH ENGINEERS, INC.
This Agreement made on th0j�� dayof " between the CITY OF
SANFORD, FLORIDA (hereinafter called the C�' Y) an H ENGINEERS, INC. (hereinafter called
the ENGINEER), is mutually agreed upon and declared an authorized Amendment to an
Agreement dated December 7,1983, between the parties, herein setting forth the scope, terms and
conditions of the work herein authorized.
In case of any conflict between this Amendment and the aforementioned Agreement of December
7, 1983, this Amendment shall govern for the work described herein.
SECTION 1
1.1. Introduction
The existing primary treatment facility (headworks) at the Sanford North Water
Reclamation Facility consists of flow collection facilities for the City's wastewater
collection system, manual barscreens (1 -inch spacing), dual aerated grit chambers,
a stormwater bypass pumping station, and a mechanical barscreen (1/4 -inch
spacing). The system components, with the exception of the mechanical barscreen,
are approximately thirty (30) years old and need to be replaced due to
obsolescence, oxidation, reduced process eff iciency and odor control concerns. The
following is a brief discussion of the condition and problems associated with these
items:
1.1.1 Manual Barscreens
The manual barscreens are constructed of "cold -rolled" steel and are
severely oxidized. The bar spacing is quite large and is currently
inefficient in removing floatable materials and needs immediate
replacement.
1.1.2 Dual Aerated Grit Chambers
The dual aerated grit chambers (circa 1971) utilize a older technology
that is very inefficient, based upon the treatment technologies available
today, in removing the grit (heavy inorganic suspended solids) from the
raw wastewater stream. One of the major problems is that the grit is
passing through the existing aerated grit chambers and is accumulating
in the downstream pipes and structures thereby reducing their hydraulic
capacity and treatment efficiency.
Secondly, another major problem with the current aerated grit chamber
facility deals with the generation and release of odors from the aerated
grit chamber. The aerated grit chamber is also an "open air" structure
and utilizes an overhead clamshell mechanism to remove the grit from
the bottom of the structure. When the raw wastewater enters the grit
chamber facility, the turbulent action in the current treatment system
releases dissolved gases (hydrogen sulfide, mercaptans, skatoles, etc.)
into the atmosphere. This "open air" condition leads to the generation
of odors not only from the grit facility but also from the grit storage area.
These noxious odors then emanate from the facility and drift into the
downtown area and throughout the City (based on wind direction).
Construction of new grit removal and odor control facilities is critical to the
efficient operation of the water reclamation facility and the reduction of
secondary impact to the community associated with the release of
malodorous gases and aerosols into the community and environment.
1.1.3 Stormwater bypass pumping station
With the City's investment in the Vacuum Sewer Collection system in
1990, infiltration and inflow has been reduced significantly. The
stormwater bypass pumping station is an antiquated unit that was only
used during high flow periods prior to removal of the City's Combined
Sewer System and can be retired and removed. A newer gravity flow
system shall be employed to convey excessive flows from the collection
system to the detention ponds.
1.1.4 Mechanical Barscreen
The existing automatic, self-cleaning mechanical barscreen is
approximately three years old and was installed with a fine screen (1/4 -
inch) to remove very small floatable objects within the raw wastewater
stream. This unit is operating very efficiently and will be reused in the
new primary treatment system reconfiguration.
1.1.5 Flow Measurement
FIDEP regulations require the City to measure the flow of raw wastewater
entering the water reclamation facility (62-600, F.A.C.). The current
configuration of the treatment facility unit operations and processes
allows the City to measure the combined flow of the raw wastewater and
all process waters being returned to the primary treatment facility for
further treatment. The City has been cited by FIDEP in the last two
annual inspections with regard to this matter. The City has ensured the
FIDEP that steps would be taken in Fiscal Year 2001 to correct these
deficiencies through the design and construction of modifications to the
primary treatment system.
After careful evaluation of potential solutions, based on constructibility techniques,
operator requirements, operation and maintenance requirements, capital and
annual costs associated with the construction and operation of the primary
treatment facilities, and efficiency of operations, the Recommended Plan, which is
in accordance with the City's Comprehensive Plan and Master Wastewater Plan,
calls for the following improvements at the Sanford North WRF:
Construction of a New Influent Channel. Construction of a new concrete
influent channel at the southeast corner of the facility site. The influent
channel will collect all raw wastewater flows from the collection system and
will incorporate a "Parshall Flume" for the measurement of raw wastewater
flow to the Sanford North Water Reclamation Facility, thereby meeting the
FDEP mandated requirements. The existing mechanical barscreen will be
relocated from it current location into the new channel to provide removal of
all floatable objects in the raw wastewater. The new influent channel will
have a positive connection to the existing master lift station for conveyance
of the raw wastewater to the next unit operation in the treatment scheme.
Construction of Odor Control Facilities. Odor control facilities will be
constructed and attached to the new influent structure to collect and treat all
odor emanating from the degassification of the raw wastewater, thereby
reducing the risk of odor complaints by surrounding residences and
businesses in the area. A two-stage, chemically oxidizing scrubber and/or
inorganic biofilter will be used depending upon the area required for the
scrubber, the available area in the SE comer of the facilitiy and the total
capital and annualized operating costs of the systems.
Construction of a New Grit Removal Facility. A new "vortex" type grit
removal facility will be built immediately south of the current biological
treatment system. The new grit removal system will be constructed above
grade on a concrete slab and will incorporate corrosion resistant materials
(FRP or stainless steel) and will have no moving internal parts. Two grit
chambers will be constructed using air to provide mixing and removal of the
grit from the wastewater stream as well as removal of the grit from the
bottom collection hopper of the each grit chamber. Collected grit will be air-
lifted and pumped, as a slurry, to a grit washer and declassifier that will wash
and dewater the grit and then dispense this cleaned material into a covered
dumpster for final disposal. A common influent channel will allow
conveyance of the wastewater to either grit chamber as well as to the south
detention pond should high flow conditions prevail (gravity flow).
Demolition of the existing grit chambers ystem. All above -grade structural
steel used to support the clamshell mechanism will be removed and placed
inside the existing grit chamber. The existing grit chamber concrete walls will
be saw cut to a depth of two -feet below grade and will be pushed into the
existing grit chamber facility. Backfill will then be placed into the existing grit
chamber facility and the area will then be landscaped. An possible
alternative to demolition will be evaluated with the City. This alternative calls
for filling in the existing aerated grit chamber and pouring a 12 -inch thick
concrete slab over it. The existing structural steel could be reconditioned
and used as a supporting mechanism for seamless aluminum siding and
roofing, with some modifications, thereby turning the structure into either a
storage or maintenance building at a relatively low square footage cost.
* Electrical, Controls, Instrumentation and SCADA Improvements.
Stormwater Management system improvements around the newly
constructed areas will be incorporated into the design based on the MSSW
requirements of FIDEP.
Miscellaneous yard piping, paving and miscellaneous appurtenances and
ancillaries as required to provide the City with a fully operational, complete
and functional system that meets all of the Federal, State and BMP
requirements.
To maintain the project on schedule and meet the timetable set with FIDEP to
incorporate the changes, the project must proceed immediately at the Sanford North
WRF.
In addition to the new primary treatment system improvements identified above, the
Engineer will also provide professional engineering services associated with the
following miscellaneous treatment facility projects:
• Removal and Replacement of the Existing Hydropneumatic Tank
The Engineer will provide professional engineering services in association
with the removal of the existing hydropneumatic tank and replacement of the
system (tank ruptured); review of shop drawings for the "new"
