AGENDA TITLE: Receive Update on Emergency Condition at White Slough Water Pollution Control
Facility Digesters No. 1 and No. 2
MEETING DATE: March 18, 2015
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Receive update on emergency condition at White Slough Water
Pollution Control Facility Digesters No. 1 and No. 2.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility (WSWPCF) has four
covered anaerobic digesters that serve the purpose of breaking
down sewage sludge that enters the plant. On July 16, 2014,
Council declared an emergency condition in response to concurrent roof failures on Digesters No. 1 and
No. 2. Public contract code requires Council to review the emergency action at its next regularly -scheduled
meeting and each regularly -scheduled meeting thereafter until the emergency is terminated.
The completed Digester No. 2 roof structure is installed and work to begin start up procedures is underway.
Digester No. 2 is expected to be placed in service the last week of March.
Digester No. 1 work will begin immediately after Digester No.2 is placed back in service. Digester No. 1 will
be emptied and cleaned so the existing roof can be removed.
The procurement and construction schedule reflecting project milestones is provided below. The work is
progressing on the original schedule, and there is no substantial change from last report.
