Project Description
The City of Bend will be using federal Clean Water State Revolving Funds through the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality to design and install replacement mechanical appurtenances in the City’s Water Reclamation Facility’s (WRF) Primary Clarifiers. This City project is part of a series of capital projects to maintain or improve critical treatment units at the City’s WRF. The project consists of designing and installing mechanical appurtenances in Primary Clarifier No. 1 and No. 2. The current mechanical appurtenances have exceeded their remaining useful life and have become an asset of reactive maintenance. Replacement safeguards the continued performance of the primary treatment process at the WRF.
Current Project Status
The City awarded a construction contract in October 2023. Since then the City’s contractor has been working on the procurement of the segmented rake arms and bridges. The City anticipates the rake arms and bridges to be delivered to the site in the fall of 2024, with installation following shortly thereafter.
