Title: A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AGREEMENT Agenda Item #
BETWEEN THE CITY OF PUEBLO AND BLACK
& VEATCH CORPORATION FOR PROFESSIONAL
SERVICES ASSOCIATED WITH A WASTEWATER
TREATMENT PLANT MASTER PLAN
Department: WASTEWATER DEPARTMENT Date: OCTOBER 25. 1999
ISSUE
Should the City of Pueblo enter into an agreement with Black & Veatch for the
development of a wastewater treatment plant master plan.
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of the Resolution.
BACKGROUND
The City of Pueblo - Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) has been experiencing
slow, steady growth over the last ten years. The wastewater flow has increased to the
WWTP where it is now approaching 80% of its hydraulic capacity during the wet
months (July & August). Recently the growth rate has accelerated resulting in the need
to evaluate how to provide additional treatment capacity in the future. Black & Veatch
will assist City staff in developing a master plan for the WWTP. The plan will identify
solutions to the complex problems of meeting our wastewater service requirements. It
will be a long range plan that will optimize the existing and future capital investments as
to provide high quality and reliable performance, low operating costs, and flexibility in
responding to future changes within the regulatory environment and the community.
The WWTP Master Plan will serve as a "road map" for future improvements.
The project will be divided into two tasks. Task 1 will be the evaluation of the existing
WWTP. Task 2 will be the development and screening of expansion and operational
alternatives.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The cost for Task 1 will be approximately $48,640. The scope of work and cost for
Task 2 will be negotiated upon the completion of Task 1. Funds for the professional
services will be paid from the Wastewater Account 014 - 0400 - 435 - 000 - 030 -0020.
