This percentage reflects only this particular contract. The overall completion percentage for the
wetland mitigation site, including berms, water control structures, etc., is 75%.
a. Subproject EP-1, Noland WWTP Wet Weather Improvements. This project involves
lining the 17 million gallon storage pond, which will allow it to be used for completely untreated wet
weather flows before they enter the treatment plant. At the current time, the storage ponds can only
be used for treated or partially treated water. This project will significantly reduce overflows, as peak
flows in excess of short term treatment plant capacity will be stored until the peak flow drops, and
will also prevent the biological treatment system from being inundated during the expected extreme
variations from normal flow to storm-related flow. The City received four bids on March 8; these bids
are under review.
b. Beaver Lake Watershed Nutrient Reduction Study. No change.
c. Subproject WL-7, Gregg Avenue Lift Station. This project involves a major upgrade to
the lift station at Gregg Avenue at Mud Creek, which is the focal point of lines WL-1 , WL-2, and the
beginning of WL-4. The renovated station will pump up to 19 mgd through WL-4 to the Hamestring
lift station. Bids open March 20. A preliminary version of the Council Agenda packet was attached to
the last Committee agenda for review and questions. In order to expedite the bid award, and if we
have a known contractor and the bid documents have no errors, Staff intends to send this to this
Committee for review as an out-of-cycle request before the next Committee meeting.
d. WSIP Farmington Area Work. Farmington submitted their request to ANRC for RLF
loan funds in February.
