About this file
This Project Understanding document pertains to the Western Region Wastewater Treatment Facility (WRWWTF) Electrical Building & Resiliency Improvements Progressive Design-Build project administered by Palm Beach County Water Utilities Department (PBCWUD) in Belle Glade, Florida. The project scope encompasses the design and construction of two new electrical buildings, a new outdoor enclosure housing two 1000 KW diesel generators, demolition of existing operations and electrical buildings, conversion of an existing DIW MCC building to storage, relocation of process and non-process piping, powerline relocation or underground installation, and construction of a new rain garden. All new electrical buildings and the outdoor enclosure must be elevated 1 to 3 feet above the Base Flood Elevation to address the facility's historic issues with compound flooding, structure settlement, and groundwater infiltration. The design phase is expected to be completed within 12 calendar months of the Notice to Proceed issuance for Phase 1 Services, with timely project delivery identified as critical importance.
The anticipated project budget is $20 million, though this figure is presented as an estimate for reference only and should not be considered a guarantee or binding cost commitment. The Design-Build Entity selected will assume full responsibility for permitting, design, construction, commissioning, training, and handover of all components to deliver complete and operable electrical buildings compliant with all applicable regulations. PBCWUD is seeking a Design-Build partner demonstrating a proven track record in performing as a fully integrated team, completing similarly sized projects, establishing competitive pricing, delivering innovation, meeting or exceeding schedule and budget requirements, obtaining required permits, achieving regulatory compliance, and maintaining plant operations throughout the project duration. Small Business Enterprise participation is not applicable to this project.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
WESTERN REGION WASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITY PHASE 2
ELECTRICAL BUILDING & RESILIENCY IMPROVEMENTS
PROGRESSIVE DESIGN-BUILD
WUD PROJECT NO. 26-014R, PACKAGE IDENTIFICATION NO. GL04
PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA
Project Background
The Western Region Wastewater Treatment Facility (WRWWTF) is located in the City of Belle Glade, Florida. Palm Beach County Water Utilities Department (PBCWUD) took ownership of the WRWWTF in 2013. The facility was built in 1970s and is experiencing compound flooding, structure settlement and groundwater infiltration. In response, PBCWUD commissioned a feasibility study to determine the most appropriate course of action to undertake. Based on the findings from the investigations PBCWUD has elected to construct two (2) new electrical buildings, add new emergency generators at the WRWWTF and demolish the existing operation/electrical buildings.
Project Scope
The Project scope includes the design and construction of the following key components:
• A new Main Electrical Building located south of the existing Operations Building and west of Oxidation Basin No.1 consolidating the electrical equipment from several existing rooms/buildings
• A new DIW Electrical Building (located between the existing DIW pump station and the DIW Pad) replacing the electrical equipment within the existing DIW electrical building and consolidating the existing VFDs DIW pump (presently positioned outside in unconditioned space) into the proposed building complete with air-conditioning.
• A new Outdoor Enclosure west of New Main Electrical Building with two (2) 1000 KW diesel generators inside.
• Demolition of the existing Operations Building/electrical building
• Demolition of the existing main generator building
• Conversion of existing DIW MCC building to a storage building
• A new rain garden at the demolition site of existing operation building
• Relocation of process and non-process related piping.
• Relocates existing overhead powerlines or bury underground powerlines.
• New electrical buildings and outdoor enclosure need to be constructed 1ft to 3ft above the Base Flood Elevation (BFE).
• Process improvements
As reference and for information only, documentation pertaining to the WRWWTF Electrical Buildings will be made available Figure No. 1 (see below) depicts a conceptual layout of the proposed project.
