Evaluated the service areas of the lift stations to size the new force mains and design replacement mains. Replace 6,100 feet of 8-inch and 10-inch force main.

Lift Station 139 Force Main Replacement, City of Orlando, FL. Tetra Tech is providing preliminary engineering, final design, permitting, bid assistance and construction administration for the replacement of the force mains between Lift Station 139 and Boggy Creek Road. The project includes approximately 5,400 LF of 24-inch force main to be installed within an easement.

The project includes open cut of herbaceous wetlands and coordination with other utility owners who share access to the easement.

Water Conserv I WRF Consolidation Study Performed a present-worth cost evaluation to estimate capital costs for improvements associated with the two options for planning the future of the Water Conserve I WRF. Tetra Tech recommended the City refurbish, upgrade, and expand the WC1WRF and subsequently operate this facility well into the future.

State Revolving Fund (SRF) Facilities Plan. The City requested and obtained funding for seven projects through the State Clean Water SRF Program. Prepared alternative analysis, cost estimates, implementation plan, capital financial plan and other documentation required to meet FDEP requirements for funding of $66 million in loans for the seven projects.

Water Conserv II WRF Filter Study. The City’s Water Conserv II Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) has a permitted design capacity of 21 MGD on an annual average daily flow (AADF) basis. The City planned to stress test the facility and expected to increase the permitted capacity to 25 MGD. The existing filtration at the Water Conserv II WRF consisted of six traveling bridge sand filters that had been in service for approximately 30 years. Due to the age and condition of the filters, as well as performance considerations, the City wanted to replace the traveling bridge sand filters with deep bed sand filters similar to those installed at the City’s Iron Bridge Regional WRF. The City retained Tetra Tech to identify acceptable approaches to address the challenges associated with this concept (space constraints, hydraulic profile considerations, maintenance of treatment during construction, and potential presence of soils unsuitable for support of the proposed structures) and to establish a capital budget for implementation of the proposed improvements.

The scope of services was divided into two steps: an initial evaluation to develop the basis of design, sizing of the filters, and filter layout location, followed by development of the feasibility study, which included conceptual drawings, piping layout, construction sequencing and cost.

To visualize the new system’s layout in an existing structure, the Tetra Tech team created a series of three-dimensional models using the Revit® software. Tetra Tech also provided permitting, bidding, and construction assistance.

Skyview Utilities Water and Wastewater Improvements. Tetra Tech was chosen to provide engineering support for the replacement and rehabilitation of approximately 23,000 linear feet of gravity sewer piping and 78 associated manholes, as well as the demolition of the existing Skyview WWTP.

Northeast Water Transmission System – Southern Route. The Tetra Tech project team provided route planning, preliminary design, surveying, final design, permitting and construction administration services for 228 linear feet (LF) of 8-inch water main, 57 LF of 12-inch water main, and 21,706 LF of contiguous 30-inch water main. Over 8,000 LF of the 30-inch water main was installed, by directional drilling, in the public road right-of-way for Fish Hatchery Road. Over 200 LF of 30-inch HDPE water main was for a non-perpendicular crossing of Fish Hatchery Road. Approximately 54 LF of 48-inch steel casing was installed by boring and jacking methods for crossing State Road 33A with a 30-inch ductile iron water main.

T.B. Williams WTP Filter Improvements. Tetra Tech was chosen to perform this project based on the team’s experience working on previous improvements to this 51 MGD plant. The previous project involved evaluation of the gravity filtration and chemical feed systems at the plant. Tasks associated with the project included upgrading the backwash system from surface water agitation to the combination air/water, installing media retaining effluent launders, and recoating basin interiors.

Northwest Wellfield Wetlands Monitoring.

Permit issuance conditions for the WUP require that an ecological monitoring program be established for the wellfield property in order to detect any effects that groundwater withdrawals from the wellfield may have on the onsite wetlands. Tetra Tech staff has been responsible for the bi-annual monitoring events since 1993. This consists of individual monitoring programs for vegetation, soil subsidence, water levels, and general vegetative trends. Vegetative monitoring includes the use of meter square plots to analyze the subcanopy and groundcover, as well as observe general trends in the canopy. Tetra Tech also performs photographic monitoring at each wetland within the wellfield.

City of Lakeland Edgewood Irrigation Well Improvements. The City of Lakeland owns and operates the Edgewood Irrigation well that provides irrigation water to the Cleveland Heights Golf Course.

The Edgewood Irrigation Well Improvements project included the demolition of the existing well building, the exiting pump and motor, and the existing electrical equipment. A new well pump and motor, discharge piping, building, and electrical service were constructed as part of the improvements. Services provided by Tetra Tech included preliminary design, final design, permitting, bidding and construction administration.

Aquifer Performance Test. As required by Special Condition 5 of the City’s consumptive use permit, Tetra Tech was retained by the City of Lakeland to design, conduct, and analyze the data from a long-term aquifer performance test at the City’s Northeast Wellfield.

Although an APT had been conducted in 1989 at the wellfield, and the CUP issued for 9 MGD average and 16 MGD maximum daily flow, the SWFWMD did not accept the results of the 1989 APT were correct, due to the short-duration of the test (which they had approved) and the wet conditions prior to starting the test. The SWFWMD therefore required the City to run another test, and determine the hydraulic properties of the Upper Floridan aquifer, and the leakance value of the confining units that overly the Upper Floridan aquifer.

A 7-day constant rate discharge test was conducted, and ten wells located throughout the 880 acre wellfield and completed into the Upper Floridan, intermediate, and surficial aquifers were monitored before, during and after the constant rate test. Electronic data loggers programmed to sample the water levels at one second up to one hour intervals were installed in the monitor wells, such that a detailed record of pre-pumping, pumping, and recovery data could be collected in sufficient quantity to use several methods of analysis.

Rainfall monitoring was also included, but none occurred during the test.
