Project No. 23505

Project Start Date: Summer 2022FY20 WTP Sludge Disposal Imp

Estimated Completion Date: TBD

Project Manager: George Brant 703-771-6743

Project Description: This project replaces 18 year old equipment with an efficient solution for accumulating, mixing and removing Water Treatment Plant (WTP) sludge. The current process of mixing, storing and maintaining WTP sludge is inefficient due to excess energy consumption and manual labor. The improvement will install modernized equipment and save labor and energy expenses at the WTP.

Project Updates:  As of June 2024 - A preliminary engineering report has been completed. As part of the 3R project, the sludge tank mixing system will be replaced in 2025. Additional improvements such as enhanced sludge and water separation equipment for disposal of sludge will be evaluated in Fiscal year 2030 as there is no funding for this project until then.
