Additional equalization volume is required to provide the ability to continue consistent facility performance. This project was identified in the 2019 WWTP Facility Plan update and consists of constructing one 75-FT diameter tank which provides 395,000 gallons of additional equalization basin storage. Design of the 75-FT diameter EQ tank will include considerations for future conversion to a primary clarifier anticipated for the year 2030. Once the 75-FT diameter tank is converted to primary clarification (in the future), the existing rectangular clarifiers adjacent to the existing EQ basin will be modified for additional equalization basin capacity.
