BACKGROUND: Biosolids are the finished product from the wastewater treatment process. Prior to 2012, these biosolids were disposed of in landfills. In 2012, the City implemented a heat drying process that eliminates harmful organisms found in untreated wastewater turning the biosolids into Class A organic based fertilizer that is sold for public use. The main piece of equipment in this process is the Thermal Dryer. In 2013, the BMS processed approximately 20,200 wet tons of biosolids creating nearly 2,500 tons of fertilizer. This drying process saved the City nearly $950,000 in landfill costs and brought in approximately $43,000 in revenue from fertilizer sales last year. DISCUSSION: The Thermal Dryer drum rotates and is supported by two large bearings. The bearing housing on the discharge end of the Thermal Dryer has prematurely failed and is cracked. The City received a quote from the sole source provider AIT Services, Inc. for all the necessary repair parts including bearing, bearing housing, gaskets, etc. in the amount of $48,300.00 plus tax. Because AIT Services, Inc. is the sole source provider, staff recommends approving a bid waiver to purchase the parts needed to repair the Thermal Dryer. BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT: Funds are available in the Wastewater Treatment Plant CIP - Plant Pumps and Equipment. Mailing Address: 113 W.
