EXHIBIT 1 INDIAN RIVER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES WEST REGIONAL WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT (WRWWTP) ANAEROBIC TANKS ODOR CONTROL SYSTEM DESIGN GENERAL t The West Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant (WRWWTP) is located at 8405 8th Street Vero Beach, FL 32960. Construction on the West Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility expansion begun in July of 2007 i and completed in May of 2010. The facility includes a pretreatment structure with two (2) screens, and grit chambers and a 1000 CFM odor control system, a 5-stage Biological Nutrient Removal (BNR) system reusing the existing tankage and adding new tankage, conversion of the system to use diffused air, adding two additional clarifiers with final total of four, three new effluent filters final total of four, additional 1 chlorine contact basins, additional rotary drum thickeners, a new single stage 2500 SCFM chemical scrubber for existing aerated sludge holding tanks, additional pumps, piping, chemical feed systems and 1: controls. i Although, the initial design and construction of the Wastewater Plant included Odor Control equipment for areas of the plant that normally are expected to generate odors, recently, adjoining neighbors have expressed concerns about odors from the plant. Subsequently, an odor evaluation at the plant was conducted which recommended additional odor control measures. The recommendations included design of cover system for the anaerobic tanks with a dedicated odor control system. Additional odor abatement for the grit dumpsters and a landscape buffer along the eastern boundary were also recommended. The scope of work also includes some minor additional improvements at the plant and is described below. Following is a list of anticipated improvements: • Provide flat aluminum covers for the anaerobic tanks. • Provide an odor control system located by the NW corner of the anaerobic tanks. • Provide an approx. 21'X24'X15' prefabricated building enclosure around the grit equipment with odor control (min. 12 air changes/hour). • Provide an air release valve on the raw sewage influent FM upstream of the 24' influent meter. • Provide a canopy over the sludge odor control chemical pumps • Modify foul air piping at the pretreatment to divert the foul air from the existing sludge area odor control system to the new odor control system. • Provide Landscape screening buffer along eastern boundary and temporary irrigation system. Atkins will provide design and construction services related to the above described improvements which will include the flowing specific tasks. SCOPE OF WORK This scope of work N\ ill specifically include the following tasks: TASK l -FINAL DESIGN The final design will include the following subtasks: Task 1.1 -Construction Plans CONSULTANT will prepare 24"X36"drawings for the above described improvements. The drawings will include plan views, sections, and details (mechanical, structural and electrical disciplines).
