Request for Proposals for Ferric Sludge Removal Services At the Us 421 Water Treatment Plant

Description: Seeking proposals from qualified contractors to provide Ferric sludge removal services. The initial service will involve the removal of approx. 700,000 to 1,000,000 gallons of ferric sludge, or up to a budget of $150,000, for hauling and liquid land application. The primary goal of this project is to create additional disposal capacity for waste generated by our water treatment plant processes. Sludge removal: remove between 700,000 to 1,000,000 gallons of Ferric sludge from our lagoon system; the sludge must be dewatered prior to hauling, ensuring that a higher proportion of sludge is removed compared to water, optimizing efficiency. Dewatering process: propose and implement a dewatering solution that will maximize sludge removal while minimizing the transportation of excess water. Disposal: haul and apply the dewatered sludge to appropriate land application sites in compliance with local, state, and federal regulations.
