SUBJECT:
Authorization to Sell andlor Scrap Package Wastewater Treatment Plant
BACKGROUND
During the height of the drought in March 1991, the City purchased a surplus "package
wastewater treatment plant". The reason for purchasing this package plant was to supply treated
wastewater for construction needs during the drought. However, because drought conditions
began to ease and available water was less costly than the high costs associated with reclaimed
treated water from this unit, this package plant was not put into operation. The plant was and is
currently stored at the City's Lester J. Berglund Water Treatment Plant.
FINDINGS
Since the City does not have any current or future plans to use this thirty-year old package
wastewater treatment unit, and since the space it occupies at the Berglund Water Treatment Plant
will be needed for materials storage associated with the scheduled construction upgrades to the
water treatment plant, staff recommends the sale andlor scrap of this unit to an interested party.
