Authorization
REQUEST: Utility Department Requesting Approval to piggyback off of Toho Water
Authority's contract with Shelley's Environmental Systems to haul Domestic
Wastewater Residuals.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this Board item is to request approval to piggyback off of Toho
Water Authority's contract with Shelley's Environmental Systems to haul the City
of Winter Springs Domestic Wastewater Residuals at a cost of$0.03 per gallon.
CONSIDERATIONS:
This agenda item is needed to continue to meet the solids disposal
requirements of the City's wastewater operational permit.
Shelley's
Environmental Systems and their disposal site are currently listed on our DEP
operating permits as our residuals hauler and disposal site. They also renew our
Agriculture Use permits annually with the DEP as required by State regulations.
The bid with the Toho Water Authority is consistent with costs other
utilities are paying for sludge hauling. The contracted hauling cost will be $.03 per
gallon for liquid residuals which ranges from 1 %to 4% solids content. An
estimated 5,000,000 gallons ofliquid sludge will be hauled this year.
FUNDING:
The annual budget for solids hauling is $170,000 in the Utility Department
line code 3600- 54320.
