Title
Carbon Replacement at the Northwest Water Reclamation Plant for the Water Resources Department (District 1)
This contract will provide a qualified contractor to replace the carbon in the two odor control tanks for the activated sludge basins at the Northwest Water Reclamation Plant. Carbon is used to remove odors and particularly H2S from the air. The work will include removal and proper disposal of existing carbon and installation of the new carbon in the carbon tanks. The goal is to replace the carbon in the two odor control tanks during the summer of 2013. The existing carbon beds have been prepared (raked) and the head-loss is being carefully monitored. If the carbon cannot last until this summer, the awarded vendor may be asked to move up the replacement project.
Water Resources and Purchasing recommend awarding the contract to the lowest, responsive and responsible bidder, Carbon Activated Corporation, at $58,150.
