This agreement provides funding to the city of willard, missouri to implement its project for a water systems treatment upgrade as directed in the 2023 consolidated appropriations act or as identified in an approved technical correction if one has been approved for this project.activities:the activities to be performed are part 1 of the proposed project will upsize the existing 10-inch DIP force main segment to 16-inch with new DIP and/or PVC pipe installed in the same trench and/or parallel to the existing force main. The existing 14-inch force main segment will be replaced with new 16-inch DIP pipe installed in the same trench as the existing force main unless existing 24-inch steel casings in bored sections prohibit upsizing to 16-inch in which case IT will be replaced 14-inch DIP having a higher-pressure rating than the existing PVC pipe. Multiple sewage combination air valves will be installed on the new force main to prevent air locking and relieve negative pressures during operation. Flow metering equipment will be installed to monitor and report flow volume conveyed to springfield for treatment and billing purposes. Part 2 of the project will upgrade the existing '94' lift station by reconfiguring the station from duplex to triplex pump operation to increase the station's firm capacity from approximately 1,500 GPM with one pump operating to approximately 2,900 GPM with two pumps operating in parallel including upgrading related station piping and electrical systems. Electrical system upgrades will include upsizing the station electrical service entrance conductors and switchgear, standby power generator and automatic transfer switch, and installing vfds and hydrostatic level controller to operate the pumps and match incoming flows.subrecipient:no subawards are included in this assistance agreement.outcomes:the anticipated deliverables are to upgrade an existing sewage lift station and replace and upsize its associated force main to increase pumping capacity and reliability to convey wastewater from the city of willard to the city of springfield's sewer system for treatment, which are expected to lead to eliminating frequent ruptures from occurring in the long force main and increase pumping capacity to provide reliable sanitary service to the community, mitigate environmental and health concerns due to pipe ruptures and associated ssos, and allow willard to continue to regionalize with springfield for wastewater treatment for 6,344 citizens of city of willard, missouri.
