The project includes the addition of a phosphorus removal system with pumping station, new UV disinfection facilities, improvements to secondary treatment systems, grit and screenings improvements, primary settling tank improvements, new odor control systems, upgrades to the existing sludge pumping systems, new chemical systems, installation of new sludge thickening and septage receiving equipment, a new generator, process and control building improvements, drainage and site improvements, and solar PV. The estimated cost of the project is $36 million and will be funded through the State Revolving Fund (CWSRF-3990). The deadline for submitting SOQs is August 20, 2015 at 2:00 PM EST.

The Town of Grafton has not identified any incumbent vendors or current contractors for this project, and there is no information provided about existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration.
