WWTF Upgrades

Springdale Water Utilities (SWU) partnered with Garver to implement a multi-phase improvement plan to upgrade at the Springdale Wastewater Treatment Facility. Phase I includes construction of several new facilities to meet an increased targeted capacity and treatment criteria that was outlined in a peak flow study completed in 2019. The Phase I improvements, currently underway, include increasing the design and peak flow pumping capacity, two new 150-foot diameter final clarifiers, rehabilitation of the four existing and aged 120-foot final clarifiers, new mixed liquor splitter box, RAS/WAS pumping upgrades, effluent flow measurement improvements, water reuse improvements, electrical improvements, additional backup power, and SCADA improvements for monitoring and control.

Bids were received in the summer of 2022. Crossland Heavy Contractors submitted the low bid in the amount of approximately $51.4 million. With Garver’s option of probable construction at approximately $54.4 million, this represents a good value for SWU. SWU, Garver and Crossland Heavy have already value engineered approximately $2 million in savings. In addition, SWU has secured an ARPA grant in the amount of $5 million to further reduce the impact to ratepayers. Construction is schedule to be complete in late 2024.
