SUBJECT:
Authorize Engineering Agreement with CP&Y, Inc., in the Amount of$993,774.00 for the Process
Evaluation and Engineering Design for Capital Improvements to the Biosolids Dewatering Processes at the
Village Creek Water Reclamation Facility, Provide for Additional Project Costs for a Total of$1,133,774.00
and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance (COUNCIL DISTRICT 5)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:

Sewer Capital Projects Fund in the amount of$1,133,774.00 from available funds; and
2. Authorize the execution of an Engineering Agreement with CP&Y, Inc., in the amount of$993,774.00
for process evaluation and engineering design of capital improvements to the biosolids dewatering
processes at the Village Creek Water Reclamation Facility.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Fort Worth owns and operates the Village Creek Water Reclamation Facility (VCWRF), a 166
million gallons per day (MGD) plant, comprised of primary, secondary and tertiary treatment, chlorine
disinfection and de-chlorination.
The VCWRF produces anaerobically digested biosolids, which is further processed at the Biosolids
Dewatering and Processing Facility, located two miles north of VCWRF. The processing and disposal of
biosolids is currently operated under contract to Renda Environmental Inc. Overall, the Biosolids
Dewatering and Processing Facility includes the onsite liquid storage, dewatering with five Andritz belt
filter presses (BFP), lime application, stabilized biosolids pad storage and final disposal by land application
to agricultural lands in the area. The BFP and all the ancillary equipment is housed in a pre-engineered
metal building.
The Biosolids Dewatering and Processing Facility is operated 24 hours per day, 7 days a week, with two
12-hr shifts. During normal operating conditions, three to four BFPs are needed to process digested
biosolids, however, many times per month all five BFPs are needed to meet dewatering demands.
Current dewatering operations is neither sustainable nor reliable and there is no flexibility for equipment
breakdown or scheduled preventative maintenance.
CP&Y, Inc., has been selected as the consulting firm to evaluate, recommend and design additional
dewatering process improvements at the Biosolids Dewatering and Processing Facility. They will evaluate
centrifuge, screw press and BFP dewatering technology options from both economic and noneconomic
perspectives, determine the optimum configuration within the plant site, develop an engineering plan,
followed by detailed design plans and specifications for bidding. CP&Y, Inc., is proposing to perform the

necessary work as needed for the Biosolids Dewatering Process Capital Improvements for a fee not to
exceed $993,774.00.
