Project Title:
Industrial Customer Expansion - Treatment Plant Expansion & Enhancement(ICE-TEE)

Project Description:
Project Description: The Carrollton Utilities (CU) Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant's current average daily flow is around 1 MGD. To protect the public and environment and to provide service to current and future customers, CU is evaluating the WWTP to determine what improvements would need to be made to increase the capacity of the facility. The first option considered was to optimize the current treatment capacity by studying the treatment process and the characteristics of the waste stream being treated. Therefore, CU will be updating its current 201 Facilities Plan. One of the goals will be to optimize the effectiveness of the process and efficiencies that can be gained by rehabbing, replacing, or renewing of the existing equipment. The project will explore replacing the headworks grinders with a screening system, rehabbing the lagoon liners, replacing the bio-tower media and the distribution arms, renewing the clarifiers and non-potable water system, and adding a UV bank, along with other miscellaneous improvements as identified in the updated Facilities Plan. Increasing the flow capacity by 1 MGD is the lofty goal of the project, but the ancillary benefit is a newly updated and more efficient nearly 20-year-old plant. Also included is increasing the flow capacity along the U.S. 42 Corridor in Carroll County. The existing industries along this corridor have been increasing the flow they are discharging into our system and additional new users have been added since the existing 6" forcemain was constructed and it has now reached capacity. CU will add nearly 15,000 LF of 10" forcemain. The majority of the new forcemain will be in the road right-of-way; however, there will be approximately 5,000 LF in a new easement. Additional components include increasing the emergency storage at the Ghent regional pump station and upgrading SCADA communication at the pump stations along the route.

Need For Project: Briefly describe how this project promotes public health or achieves and/or maintains compliance with the Clean Water Act or Safe Drinking Water Act:
CU is working to be proactive with our treatment and collection of wastewater. The plant expansion will ensure that the plant maintains compliance with the Clean Water Act and the states treatment requirements. Improvements to the collection system will allow the other existing pump stations to operate more efficiently and effectively. These improvements will also prevent the other pump stations from potentially overflowing and causing an SSO.

Project Alternatives:

Alternate A:

Note: If project includes the construction of a new treatment plant or upgrade to existing plant, please explain regionalization options here.

No action - CU's existing plant is still under its average daily flow capacity and the existing 6" forcemain is operating.  However no action is just kicking the can down the road.

Alternate B:

Full-scale expansion of the WWTP - The project as proposed is a good alternative, both economically and logistically, compared to adding new components to the plant.  The original design allowed for an additional lagoon, bio-tower and clarifier however the cost would more than 4x the proposed improvements.

Green Infrastructure:

Green stormwater infrastructure includes a wide array of practices at multiple scales that manage wet weather and that maintains and restores natural hydrology by infiltrating, evapotranspiring and harvesting and using stormwater. On a regional scale, green infrastructure is the preservation and restoration of natural landscape features, such as forests, floodplains, and wetlands, coupled with policies such as infill and redevelopment that reduce overall imperviousness in a watershed. On the local scale, green infrastructure consists of site and neighborhood-specific practices, such as:

Component		Cost
Item 1:	Implementation of green streets.
Item 2:	Wet Weather management systems for parking areas.
Item 3:	Implementation of comprehensive urban forestry programs.
Item 4:	Stormwater harvesting and reuse.
Item 5:	Downspout disconnection.
Item 6:	Comprehensive retrofit programs designed to keep wet weather discharges out of sewer systems.
Item 7:	Establishment or restoration of riparian buffers, floodplains, wetlands or other natural features.
Item 8:	Management of wetlands.
Item 9:	Purchase of land or easements on land that has a direct benefit to water quality.
Total Cost:

* Indicates a business case may be required for this item.

If any box(es) above are checked, please describe each below.

Water Efficiency:

The use of improved technologies and practices to deliver equal or better services with less water. Water efficiency encompasses conservation and reuse efforts, as well as water loss reduction and prevention, to protect water resources for the future. Examples include:

Item 2:	Installing any type of water meter in previously unmetered areas (can include backflow prevention if in conjunction with meter replacement).
Item 3:	Replacing existing broken/malfunctioning water meters with AMR or smart meters, meters with leak detection, backflow prevention
Item 4:	Retrofitting/Adding AMR capabilities or leak equipment to existing meters.
Item 5:	Developing water audit and conservation plans, which are reasonably expected to result in a capital project.
Item 6:	Recycling and water reuse projects that replace potable sources with non-potable sources (Gray water, condensate, and wastewater effluent reuse systems, extra treatment or distribution costs associated with water reuse).
Item 7:	Retrofit or replacement of existing landscape irrigation/agricultural systems to more efficient landscape/agricultural irrigation systems (rain and moisture sensing equipment)
Item 8:	Water meter replacement with traditional water meters.*
Item 9:	Projects that result from a water audit or water conservation plan.*
Item 10:	Storage tank replacement/rehabilitation to reduce water loss.*
