agreement with Multatech Engineering, Inc. for the design of a digester gas fired engine/generator at
the Village Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant, using the methane gas produced by the plant
processes The additional engine or turbine generators will be capable of generating approximately
60% of the electrical power required by the plant. Currently, the excess methane gas is "flared "
Solar Turbines, Inc. will install the two new 5.2 MW turbine generators and associated equipment. The
general construction contractor (awarded under a separate M&C) will be responsible for the modifications
to the existing engine generator room of the blower building
On February 10, 2000, the following bid was received
