Moriah Presentation on WW Master Plan: Moriah presented a packet on infrastructure assessment, data collections, identification of needs and long-term strategies for our Wastewater Master Plan. The last Wastewater Master Plan was done in 2008. In relation to Act 605, master plans will be done every 5 years along with rate studies. Major system improvements like the treatment plant facility are included in the planning, along with funding expectations for the master plans projects. A list of upcoming dates were included in the packet for workshops and additional meetings for planning of outreach, education and recommendations to Council to adopt the WW Master Plan. August 19th will be the next special meeting for the Capital Improvement Plan and to recommend the Master Plan to Council.

WW Master Plan by Crist Engineers: Craig Johnson with Crist Engineers presented the Bryant Wastewater System Master Plan. 8 technical memorandums were developed from objectives and goals, hydraulic updates, biosolid management, initial planning and evaluation, lift stations and force mains to scada evaluations. Population projections, planning of future areas of growth, dry and wet weather simulations were performed, and cost-effective capital improvements recommended. Near Term, Mid-Term, and Long-term needs were presented for the next 20 years. Breakdown of moneys were shown in our facilities, approximately half is in the treatment plant.

Hydraulic Models were shown along with capacity restrictions where areas of improvement would be needed were addressed. WWTP design flow was discussed from current flow, to peak flow, to peak wet weather flow rate and EQ basin drainage. WWTP alternatives were evaluated for the aging areas of the treatment plant.
