Capital Improvement Program Plan

Introduction
Kitsap County has prepared Wastewater Facilities Plans to address the wastewater infrastructure needs of Kitsap County for 20-year planning horizons. The Plan identified the following projects that encompass the four service areas of Manchester, Suquamish, Kingston, and North/Central Kitsap:

Suquamish Infiltration/Inflow (completed) Suquamish Wastewater Treatment Plant (completed) Sodium Hypochlorite System Improvements (completed) Bremerton Boulevard Improvements (completed) Pump Station 7 upgrade (completed) Pump Station 67 (completed) CKWWTP Phase I Improvements (completed) CKWWTP Rerating and Optimization Study (completed) Manchester Wastewater Treatment Plant (completed) Kingston Wastewater Treatment Plant and Outfall (to be completed 2000-2005) Poulsbo-area Pump Station and Conveyance (to be completed 2000-2005) Pump Station 24 (to be completed 2000-2005) CKWWTP Phase IIC Improvements (to be completed 2000-2005) CKWWTP Phase IIA Improvements (to be completed 2000-2005) CKWWTP Phase IIB Improvements (tentatively scheduled for 2006-2011) Pump Station 10 Improvements (to be completed in 2000) Navy Yard City Pump Station 75 Replacement (to be completed 2000 2001) Navy Yard City Collection System Improvements (to be completed in 2001) Munson Street Sewer Replacement (to be completed in 2001) Waaga Way Conveyance Improvements (tentatively scheduled for 2005-2010) Infiltration and Inflow- Silverdale, Manchester (tentatively scheduled for 2006-2011)

Of the projects not yet completed, there several which must be undertaken in the near term in order to perform needed repairs to existing facilities, update the facilities to current technology and codes, provide facilities which will meet regulatory mandated levels of treatment, and provide collection and treatment capacity for the short and long term growth of the community. The purpose of the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Plan is to define the wastewater capital program for the upcoming six-year period (2000-2005). This document breaks down the program into discrete projects and in a uniform format. By providing this level of detail, a baseline is established for the overall capital program and for each individual project, so that in the event of changes to project scope and schedule during design and construction, the impact on the overall plan can be assessed.

Eleven projects have been identified and presented in separate chapters of this plan. Progress reports are presented for the projects that are currently in the design and/or construction phase. Projects planned for the latter years of the capital program are developed to the level of detail available at this time. Included within the Program Summary chapter is a discussion of Kitsap Countys policies and procedures for implementing a capital improvement program. The development of the projects included in the CIP follows these policy guidelines. The passage of I-695 may impact the ability of the Wastewater Division to complete the projects identified in the Comprehensive Plan. The rate increases currently in place by resolution for the years 2000 and 2001 will enable the completion of the six projects presented in this six-year Plan; however, a rate increase for the year 2002 will be required to undertake the remainder of the capital projects and further rate increases in subsequent years will be needed for operations and maintenance work and bond repayment. The ability of the Wastewater Division to impose rate increases beyond the year 2001 will need to be determined by the courts.

Capital Improvement Program Policy

The Kitsap County Capital Improvement Program Policy established policies and procedures for implementing the CIP. This policy follows: Introduction This document will comprise the Kitsap County Public Works Department policy, procedures, and planning for capital improvement projects for the Wastewater Division and will be updated and improved annually to insure the successful planning for capital improvement needs. The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a six-year scheduling of public physical improvements, which are based on studies of fiscal resources, and the choice of specific improvements to be built. This plan encompasses a six-year period beginning with 2000 and ending in the year 2005. The plan will be reviewed and updated annually prior to the adoption of the next year's operating budget. Each year the first year of the program will be considered for incorporation into the preliminary budget for the next year. The program will be updated annually and will incorporate the following six-year period to make the capital program an on-going program. The CIP ensures that plans for facilities improvements are carried out; allows improvement proposals to be tested against a set of policies; schedules improvements that require more than one year to construct; provides an opportunity to purchase land before costs go up; provides an opportunity for long-range financial planning and management; offers an opportunity for citizens to participate in decision making; and contributes to better overall management of county facilities. The CIP plays an important role in financial planning and compliments the annual operating budget by evaluating needs and resources for certain projects several years into the future. The major terms associated with the planning are defined as follows: 1. Capital outlay or expenditure refers to any expenditure made to purchase a physical asset that costs $1,000 or more and is expected to provide service for a period of time greater than one year. Capital improvement is the construction, purchase, or major rehabilitation of physical structures. Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is the selection and multi-year scheduling of public physical improvements. Capital improvements budgeting is the annual process of deciding which public improvements listed in the CIP are to be funded and analyzing the various methods of financing such projects along with their impact on the annual operating budget. An important distinction between capital improvements budget and the CIP is that the former may become a part of the legally adopted annual operating

budget, whereas the longer-term program does not necessarily commit the Wastewater Division to a particular expenditure in a particular year. Capital Improvement Program Policies The intent of the CIP is to develop explicit long term planning to prolong or extend the useful life of the Wastewater Division capital assets or to develop new capital assets as deemed necessary by the long term plans. General CIP policies are as follows: 1. The CIP will emphasize maintaining existing infrastructure facilities such as buildings, operating systems, equipment, etc., before replacing or building new ones. Multi-year capital planning is required and upon approval will be systematically included in the capital budget process and funded appropriately. Capital expenditures will be prioritized through a set of project selection criteria for better examination of critically needed expenditures. The Wastewater Division will finance capital expenditures on a pay-as-you-go basis unless circumstances dictate otherwise. The Wastewater Division will maximize the use of outside funds and grants for capital expenditures.

Facilities Inventory The Wastewater Division inventories capital assets on an annual basis and has an ongoing preventive maintenance program for all equipment and facilities. This annual inventory of capital assets includes a determination of the current condition of capital assets; the most critical maintenance items needed to prolong useful life, and an estimate of useful life of each capital asset. Capital assets in critical need of major repair or replacement within the next six years as determined by this evaluation process will be included in the CIP. Financing Capital Expenditures The capital revenue sources which will be pursued to fund future capital budgets will include, but are not limited to, the following: 1. 2. 3. Grants/loans from public and private agencies. User fees. Utility Local Improvement District/Bonds - both by resolution and petition.

Developer extension of utility lines - to be reimbursed by later users where appropriate. Revenue Bonds.

Presentation to the Board of County Commissioners The Board will review the preliminary CIP annually to make any necessary additions, deletions or other changes as recommended by Board members, staff, and the public. Final Adoption by the Board of Commissioners Final adoption of the CIP by the Board will be made prior to the adoption of the annual budget. Amendment Process Amendments to the CIP could include the addition of projects which might arise as a result of unique opportunities, the unexpected availability of special funding opportunities, the deletion of projects deemed unnecessary or simple updates to reflect the most current project information. A proposed amendment would follow the same procedure as indicated for CIP adoption.

Explanation of Cost Estimates

The scope of each project has been broken down into the following components, defined as follows. Design Phase Engineering Services Costs include assistance during planning and permitting, environmental review, preliminary engineering, predesign, final design/contract documents, and assistance during bidding. For projects where an actual estimate of hours is not available, the various elements of engineering services are typically estimated as a percentage of total construction costs, according to industry standards. Engineering Services during Construction Costs include consultant service contracts for submittal reviews, responses to contractors requests for information, preparation of change orders, and field engineering required during construction. Typically the design phase engineering services contract covers engineering services during construction. Construction Management The costs shown are based on the anticipated manpower needed to manage the project construction for the expected duration of the project. Where the duration has yet to be fixed, 4-6% of the total construction value is used to determine the construction management amount. Construction management includes construction administration, inspection, testing, and field services. Construction Contract Where construction contracts have been established with the project broken down into logical components, estimates are assigned based on this contracting plan. For projects with less definition, costs are estimated based on unit prices for system components. For each construction contract identified, 8.1% is added for sales tax and a contingency amount of approximately 10% is dedicated to the construction estimate.

Proposed Scope of Work

North Central Conveyance System Pump Station 24 SCOPE OF WORK Earlier planning documents identified three projects as being required to improve capacity and conveyance in the northern service area. The first project, Keyport Pump Station 67 and Gravity Collection, was completed by early 1998. The remaining two projects are needed to convey sewage flows from Poulsbo and to handle increased flows from the Pump Station 15 service area. The Pump Station 15 service area includes Lemolo, Keyport, Bangor, and the residential areas off of Highway 303 and Tagholm Road, which drain to the existing Pump Station 24. Previous studies tentatively identified the site of the chlorination facility off of Johnson Road, in Poulsbo, as the preferred location for the new Lemolo Pump Station (Pump Station 70). It was also assumed that the existing Pump Station 15 would be refurbished to provide the required increased capacity needed at that point in the system. Subsequent engineering evaluations established the existing Pump Station 24 site, located on the Brownsville Highway, as being better topographically suited and enabling the construction of a larger building footprint than the existing Pump Station 15. The comparison of the two sites is described below. Pump Station 15 Site Features:

The higher elevation of the Pump Sta. 15 site, relative to the Pump Sta. 24 site results in a higher pressure at the Lemolo underwater crossing The steeply sloping terrain surrounding the site would limit capacity to ll.0 million gallons per day (mgd). A capacity of 20.0 mgd is required for build-out conditions. The net positive suction head (NPSH) available at the existing facility is limited which may not allow competitive bidding The site, as improved, will be very congested and will allow for poor access to the building entrance and wet well The limited amount of submergence on the pump suction line in the wet well may create a vortex problem Most of the existing structure can be reused to house the new equipment, which results in a relatively lower construction cost

Pump Station 24 Site Features:

Pump Station 24 is located at an elevation lower than Pump Station 15, resulting in a lower

Capital Improvement Program Plan

pipe pressure at the Lemolo underwater crossing The ground surface surrounding Pump Station 24 is relatively flat and would be able to accommodate a building housing the larger capacity (20.0 mgd) pumps required at build-out conditions. The size and terrain of the site would provide better construction access than that provided at Pump Station 15 The pump specification will not be restricted by NPSH considerations The footprint of the building exceeds the property boundary, requiring the acquisition of additional property Additional costs will be incurred to modify the force main outside of Pump Station 15 Construction of Pump Station 24 eliminates the need for future construction of a pump station at Tagholm

The Pump Station 24 site was the recommended alternative based primarily on the ability to expand the pumping capacity in the future to 20.0 mgd, the minimization of crossing pressure on the underwater siphon and the elimination of a future Tagholm pump station. Construction began January 2000 at this site and is expected to continue through the spring of 2001. Pump Station 24 will initially house three 300 horsepower, 3,800 gpm pumps with a combined capacity of 11.0 mgd. As peak flow increases beyond this design capacity, the pumps will be upgraded to a total of four pumps with 450 horsepower motors, providing a combined capacity of 20.0 mgd. The pumps will be equipped with adjustable frequency drives for flow variation. It is assumed that flywheels will be utilized for surge control. The lower level of Pump Station 24 will consist of a pump room and wet well. The ground level structure will house the emergency generator, fuel system, odor control system, chemical storage tank, chemical metering system, nonpotable water system, and electrical equipment. The force main outside of Pump Station 24 will be rerouted into the pump station while the force main outside of Pump Station 15 will be modified to continue straight through to the Central Kitsap Treatment Plant.

Proposed Scope of Work

North Central Conveyance System Pump Station 70 SCOPE OF WORK As part of the SEPA environmental review process, a total of five alternatives are being evaluated by the City of Poulsbo and Kitsap County, to determine the preferred option of conveying sewage flows from the City to the Central Kitsap Wastewater Treatment Plant. The final EIS is expected to be distributed by May 2000. The preferred alternative currently consists of the following project elements to be constructed by Kitsap County Public Works:

Pump Station 70 Force main from Pump Station 70 to Johnson Road Chlorination Facility (existing) Modifications to existing sewer lines through Lemolo Modifications at the Johnson Road Chlorination Facility Modifications in Keyport (including elimination of Pump Station 16)

Pump Station 70 would be constructed on the upper portion of a parcel at 17152 Lemolo Shore Drive or on the north side of Highway 305 across from Johnson Road. Lemolo Shore Drive bounds the property to the north by SR 305 and to the south. A house that would continue to be used as a residence occupies the lower portion of the lot. Kitsap County purchased this property in 1999. If the property on the north side of Highway 305 is selected, the Lemolo Shore property would be sold and another site purchased. Pump Station 70 would be a custom designed pump station with two submersible pumps, two dry well pumps, pump motors, electrical equipment, and other appurtenances required for pumping wastewater. The capacity of the pump station would be 6.0 MGD. Construction of Pump Station 70, modifications of the force mains from this pump station to the Johnson Road Chlorination facility, and the demolition of Pump Station 16 would require excavation of approximately 10,000 cubic yards of earth, of which about half would be used onsite for backfill and the remainder disposed of offsite. A diesel engine, backup generator system would provide standby power to the pump station in case of a failure at the main power source. To minimize the impact to the adjacent residence, the pump station would look like a house with clapboard siding, and the site would be landscaped to blend in with the residential character of the surrounding area. The emergency generator would be in its own room on the north side of the pump room, away from the adjacent residence. The exhaust pipe from the generator would be designed to look like a chimney. The odor control unit would be installed on top of the wet well behind a wood screen wall to give the visual appearance of an enclosed patio deck. The fuel storage tank would be installed behind a textured concrete block wall, with an open top and exterior siding to blend in with the rest of the pump station.

The pump station would be provided with two separate odor control systems. The first is an activated carbon scrubber unit and the second is a sodium hypochlorite injection system. Approximately 4,000 gallons of sodium hypochlorite, which is similar to household bleach, would be stored within the Pump Station 70 building. The sodium hypochlorite would be kept in fully sealed tanks that have secondary containment (a concrete sump that could hold the entire contents of a tank). The loudest noise source would be the emergency generator. Noise mitigating design features would include duct silencers for the radiator cooling air and silencers for the combustion gas exhaust. Acoustical panels would be installed on the generator room wall to absorb noise radiating from the emergency generator. Acoustical panels would also be installed in the motor room ground level to absorb noise generated by the adjustable frequency drives. The odor control system, which would be located within an open top screen wall area, would be equipped with a slow-speed fan motor installed in an acoustical enclosure to reduce the amount of noise generated from this source. A magnetic flow meter would be installed in the discharge piping to measure pump station flow. An analog flow signal would be transmitted by the telemetry system back to the Central Kitsap Wastewater Treatment Plant. A new 6-inch water main from the City of Poulsbo would provide water to the pump station to serve the pump mechanical seals, sodium hypochlorite dosing, fire sprinklers, emergency eyewash/showers, and provide pump station washdown water. Pending the outcome of the environmental review process and permitting, construction is planned to begin in September 2000.

Narrative Scope of Work and Project Issues

Central Kitsap Wastewater Treatment Plant Centrifuge Installation, Phase IIC SCOPE OF WORK The required upgrade and expansion work at the CKWWTP has been divided into four separate projects due to the need by Public Works to match the outlay of capital costs with the timing of revenue generation from new sewer connections and monthly sewer revenues. The projects are described as follows: Contract I. Completed in 1997. Included a new aeration system, associated power/blower building, refurbishment of the secondary clarifiers, construction of UV disinfection, and pump and drive replacement. Contract IIC. Currently underway. Includes biosolids dewatering improvements (new centrifuge, polymer system, sludge pumps, building modifications), new hypochlorite facility for odor control, and elimination of existing chlorine gas facilities. Contract IIA. Planned to start 2003. Includes liquid stream improvements (new headworks, aerated grit removal, primary clarifiers, secondary clarifiers), and one new digester. Contract IIB. Planned to start 2006, depending on funding. Includes new primary clarifiers, new dissolved air flotation thickening units, a second centrifuge, and process water system. The Centrifuge Installation project began in January 2000 and is expected to be complete by December 2000. The existing plate and frame filter press used for sludge dewatering is outdated and requires laborintensive operation and maintenance. The existing equipment also has no back up in the event of equipment malfunction. The centrifuge installation project consists of providing one sludge dewatering centrifuge to supplement the existing plate and frame press. Associated work will include structural changes necessary to the solids handling building to accommodate the installation of the centrifuge equipment, a new polymer feed system, odor control equipment, and adjustments to the existing electrical, mechanical, and piping systems. Other plant work that will be accomplished as part of this contract includes modifications to the septage degritting facilities and installation of mixers in the existing aeration basins to allow operation with an anaerobic selector.

Narrative Scope of Work and Project Issues

Kingston Wastewater Treatment Plant SCOPE OF WORK The scope of work for the Kingston project, as identified by the Kingston Wastewater Facilities Plan (Brown and Caldwell, March 1995) and Addendum (CH2M Hill, 1998), focuses on providing sewer service to the existing urban growth area. Due to the status of the growth management and planning process, several of the components of the originally defined project have been delayed. The project as currently defined consists of the replacement of the existing wastewater treatment plant in Kingston and pumping facilities for the conveyance of sewage from the existing plant to the site of the new facilities. The existing facility is at capacity, and the equipment is aging and requires replacement to improve performance and reliability. CH2M Hill is currently in the process of preparing a supplemental Environmental Impact Statement and an Engineering Report for the project. Both documents should be finalized by February 2000. Construction of the new plant is scheduled to begin September 2000. The new facility will replace the existing plant and will be designed to meet the current user capacity requirements and long term capacity projections through advanced site planning. For the purpose of establishing the scope of planned improvements, the following components are assumed to be included: The plant will be initially sized for the current UGA population flow projections, with a flow capacity of 292,000 gpd ADF and 1.34 mgd PDF. The site will be planned for the addition of future tanks and structures for expansion to the year 2045 flow projections, with a flow capacity of 1.04 mgd ADF and 5.06 mgd PDF. The planned secondary treatment plant will include construction of an oxidation ditch and circular clarifiers for the activated sludge process. Influent screening and degritting will precede the secondary process. Solids handling will be limited to temporary storage and thickening equipment for haul to the Central Kitsap Wastewater Treatment Plant for additional treatment. Effluent will be UV disinfection. Following are proposed treatment plant components: A. The headworks consist of vortex separators ahead of the oxidation ditch for grit removal and a rotary screen for the removal of floatable materials.. B. A process building will be constructed to enclose the influent screening and grit removal, odor control equipment and UV disinfection equipment. The size of the process building will be sufficient to enclose the equipment needed for the year 2015-flow capacity and provide room for

expansion.

C. The secondary process chosen for the Kingston site includes construction of an oxidation ditch and two secondary clarifiers. The site plan will be organized to provide sufficient space for a second oxidation ditch and additional clarifier units. D. Sludge handling facilities will be limited to provisions for temporary sludge storage and thickening for truck haul to the Central Kitsap plant. On-site storage volume has yet to be evaluated, but it is assumed minimum storage will be provided. Covered storage tanks will be provided with below grade equipment galleries for aeration equipment and pumps. E. Primary three-phase power will be extended to the site and a new power transformer and primary power distribution center will be constructed to meet the year 2000 plant size, with provisions for expansion to the year 2020 requirements. F. Standby Power facilities will be constructed and sized to provide emergency power to the occupied buildings, to run essential process equipment, and to provide a central standby power supply for the remote pump stations (if feasible). G. A separate operations building will be constructed to house the plant control equipment, instrumentation and alarms, electrical distribution inclusive of the main primary power switchgear, transfer switches, motor control center, step down transformers, and local distribution panels. The Operations building shall also contain the offices, showers, toilets, a locker room, a day room, a maintenance shop, and a laboratory and storage space. H. Site development is assumed to be limited to clearing the area designated for the plant construction. Site improvements include provisions for on-site storm water treatment and detention storage, perimeter site fencing, site security lighting, low maintenance landscaping, and asphalt pavement access road and parking areas. I. Onsite utilities will include potable water extended from the Kingston Water system for domestic and fire use, plant non-potable reclaimed water system for wash down purposes, site storm water collection for drainage of impervious areas, a site tank drainage system, and operations building sewer collection. A new pump station (Pump Station 71) will be located at the site of the existing treatment plant in order to reroute flows to the new treatment plant site. It will convey all wastewater flows from within the existing Kingston service area, plus the flows from currently unsewered areas lying north of the Kingston downtown core, to the new treatment plant. Special consideration of mitigating measures have been taken in the design of Pump Station 71 because the site of the existing treatment plant is being acquired by the Kitsap County Parks Department and the land turned into a public park. For this reason, public restrooms have been incorporated into the structure.

The pump station will consist of a wet well/dry well arrangement so that the discharge piping can be fitted with flywheels for surge control. Very low initial flows together with high pumping head drive the sizing of the station and force main. The current peak flow at the existing treatment plant is approximately 300 gallons per minute. Pumps required for the projected future design flow of 1,630 gallons per minute (2.34 gpd) would be so greatly oversized for the initial low flows that their operation would be unsatisfactory at the lower flow. Similarly, constructing the force main sized for the ultimate flow will result in very low initial velocities and aggravate solids deposition and odor formation in the force main for many years until flows increased. A preliminary analysis indicated that installing an initial pumping capacity of 350 gallons per minute (0.5 mgd) and a 6-inch force main would accommodate initial flows, provide an allowance for flow increase, and function acceptably. A parallel force main (10-inch and 12-inch depending on which alternative is implemented) and increased pumping capacity will be needed in the future. The existing Pump Station 41 will also require some modifications. Pump Station 41 is an existing factorybuilt pump station located on the shores of Appletree Cove. It has a rated firm capacity (with the largest pumping unit out of service) of 240 gallons per minute and currently conveys about up to 85 percent of all flow to the existing treatment plant. The pump station will continue to pump up to the existing treatment plant site after the plant has been replaced by Pump Station No. 71. The pump station currently receives its electrical power supply from the existing wastewater treatment plant but the power source will be changed to Pump Station 71 when that facility is built. The projected peak-hour flow to this pump station is greater than twice existing capacity of the pump station. Although the pumps and motors would have to be replaced to enable the pump station to handle the long-term projected peak hour flow, the capacity of the station will be increased to 350 gpm by replacing the impellers of the existing pumps.

Narrative Scope of Work and Project Issues

Kingston Outfall SCOPE OF WORK Studies pertaining to the Kingston Treatment Plant outfall were conducted by Public Works in 1997 for the purpose of developing and evaluating a range of options for improving discharge conditions. It was discovered at that time that the outfall pipe had been broken during dredging operations associated with the construction of ferry terminal improvements being undertaken by the Washington Department of Transportation. The dredging and breakage of the line occurred sometime between 1989-1990. The break occurred approximately 300 feet offshore at a depth of about 20 feet MLLW. A contract has been negotiated and signed between Public Works and Washington State Ferries for the design and construction of a new outfall. CH2M Hill has completed an evaluation for the selection of a preferred alignment for the new pipe that will relocate it away from future dredging activities. The selected discharge depth of 165 feet will obviate the need to establish a closure zone for shellfish harvesting which would have necessitated that the County purchase the geoducks within the closure zone. Preliminary design and design of the new outfall is scheduled to be complete by February 2000. The preliminary design work is summarized in the Kingston Replacement Outfall Engineering Report (CH2M Hill, January 2000) and includes a geoduck survey, underwater documentation of the condition of the seabed along the preferred alignment, and mitigation planning for impacts, if any, to geoduck beds and eelgrass stands. Environmental permitting will involve coordination with and approval from the Department of Ecology, Kitsap County Shorelines Management, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the Washington State Department of Natural Resources. Construction is anticipated to last about six months and is presently scheduled to occur between June and December 2001. Washington State Ferries has agreed and is under contract to pay for the portion of the outfall that will replace the length of outfall disrupted by the dredging. Kitsap County is pursuing grant monies from the Washington State Department of Ecology for the remainder of the project cost.

Narrative Scope of Work and Project Issues

Central Kitsap Wastewater Treatment Plant Plant Expansion, Phase IIA SCOPE OF WORK The design of Phase IIA improvements are approximately at the 80% completion level. It is expected that the finalization of design will begin mid-year 2002 and that the project will be bid in the summer of 2003. Construction is expected to continue through December 2004. The Phase IIA improvements consist of the following work elements: A. Headworks and Primary Sedimentation.

New influent junction structure. Replace the existing headworks with a new headworks sized for the new 10.8 mgd ADF. Headworks odor control facilities New aerated grit removal facilities. Primary pump gallery.

The above facilities are needed to allow for better influent control, reduce odors associated with the headworks, and to provide for effective removal of influent debris, rags, and grit which is presently not possible within the existing facility components. B. Aeration and Secondary Sedimentation.

Outfall Modifications. Within the CKWWTP Facilities Plan, capacity restrictions and potential problems with meeting dilution requirements for future flows were identified. The existing outfall piping hydraulics were rated at a limiting capacity of 23 mgd. An allowance for replacement of piping at areas where the flow restriction occurs was identified in the Facilities Plan cost estimates. For the purposes of this capital plan, an allowance has been included for offsite outfall pipe improvements or diffuser modifications. It is anticipated that further engineering analysis will better define the scope. An allowance for construction of the on-site facilities to include an outfall junction structure and 550 ft. of 60-inch reinforced concrete pipe are included and incorporated into the Central Kitsap Expansion Contract improvements.

Pump Station 10 Improvements SCOPE OF WORK The Central Kitsap Wastewater Facilities Plan identified Pump Station 10 as an undersized station that had a firm capacity less than the expected Peak Dry Weather Flow. Anticipated additional uses of the County Fairgrounds property in the near future necessitates the implementation of temporary measures to accommodate peak flows. Under the project, a 20,000-gallon overflow tank would be installed adjacent to the existing pump station wetwell. Peak flows that exceed the existing pump capacity would flow into the new tank and stored until low flow periods. Pump Station 10 Improvements include:

A 20,000 gallon fiberglass or coated concrete storage tank Overflow and return piping A 4-inch gate valve to control return flow Control float and associated electrical equipment to signal overflow condition

Proposed Scope of Work

Navy Yard City Pump Station 75 Replacement SCOPE OF WORK In 1996, the County began collecting assessments for capital improvements from Navy Yard City customers. Sufficient funds are now available to address problems identified in a 1994 report assessing the condition of the collection system and known deficiencies in the transmission system. Pump Station 75, located immediately south of the Bremerton Wastewater Treatment Plant requires replacement. The existing packaged station does not meet the Department of Ecologys requirements for reliability, having neither an emergency generator nor an overflow storage tank. Additionally, access to the pump station wetwell is very restricted and dangerous, limiting cleaning operations, which results in odor control problems.

The new pump station will have two 750 gpm submersible pumps situated in a concrete wetwell. Odor control for the pump station will be either an activated carbon scrubber system or a passive bio-filter system. Back up power will be supplied by a 60 kw diesel emergency generator installed in a weatherproof steel enclosure on a concrete pad. Electrical equipment will be installed in a free standing NEMA-12 enclosure, also mounted on a concrete pad. The pump station will be remotely monitored via a radio telemetry system.

Navy Yard City Collection System Improvements SCOPE OF WORK In 1996, the County began collecting assessments for capital improvements from Navy Yard City customers. Sufficient funds are now available to address problems identified in a 1994 report assessing the condition of the collection system and known deficiencies in the transmission system. Identified as a priority 1 project in the 1994 report, the sewer main along Charleston Beach Road exhibits numerous area of structural failure. Because the mains are installed at minimum depths, the poor structural integrity of the pipe poses significant danger to the roadway above. In addition, the condition of the pipe allows a significant amount of infiltration, which results in penalty payments to the City of Bremerton for sewage treatment. The existing 8 concrete sewer main will be replaced from manhole J11-3002 to manhole J11-3007 with PVC pipe. All side sewers will be replaced from the main to the right-of-way line. Side sewer cleanouts with covers will be installed for each sewer service. Navy Yard City collection system improvements include:

Replacement of 860 L.F. of 8-inch concrete sewer pipe with PVC pipe Replacement of 575 L.F. of 6-inch concrete side sewer pipe with PVC pipe Replacement of 6 manholes Installation of 23 side sewer cleanouts with covers Restoration of concrete pavement and sidewalks

Proposed Scope of Work

Munson Street Sewer Replacement SCOPE OF WORK Television inspection of sewers in Silverdale revealed significant tree root intrusion in the concrete sewer main and side sewers along Munson Street. Although the County routinely injects root-dissolving foam into the sewers to remove roots, the sewers in Munson show structural damage resulting from the intrusion. The television inspection indicate numerous areas of pipe cracking and joint dislocation. Root intrusion into side sewers has resulted in several blockages and one sewage overflow in the last two years. Under this project, sewer mains and side sewers would be replaced from manhole L17-1015 to cleanout L17-1018C. Side sewers would be replaced from the mainline to the right-of-way margin and covered cleanouts installed for each service. Munson Street sewer replacement includes:

Replacement of 925 L.F. of 8-inch concrete sewer pipe with PVC pipe Replacement of 285 L.F. of 6-inch concrete side sewer pipe with PVC pipe Replacement of 3 manholes and 1 cleanout Installation of 19 side sewer cleanouts with box covers Asphalt roadway and gravel shoulder restoration

Proposed Scope of Work

Waaga Way Conveyance Improvements (Design) SCOPE OF WORK Identified in the 1994 Central Kitsap County Wastewater Facilities, construction of the Waaga Way conveyance improvements will provide capacity for increased flows from the southern portion of the Central Kitsap service area. In order to provide this capacity, a new pump station, interceptor sewers, and force main will be installed. The new pump station will be located north of Waaga Way along old County Road #239. The station will be equipped with pumps and variable speed drives capable of conveying an estimated year 2015 peak design (PDF) of about 21.7 mgd. The pumping station structure, however, will be sized to accommodate pumping units capable of conveying an estimated ultimate PDF of approximately 25.5 mgd. The pumping station will receive sewage from the entire southern service area through a new 54-inch influent sewer. This gravity sewer will have the flow capacity to convey estimated 50-year flow rates, and will do so at velocities high enough to keep wastewater solids in suspension. The influent sewer will extend from Waaga Way to the pumping station in the same easement occupied by the existing 24-inch diameter pipeline. Consideration was given to continue use of the existing pipeline from the proposed Waaga Way Pump Station site to the Central Kitsap Wastewater Treatment Plant as the force main for the Waaga Pump Station. The 30-inche diameter portion of the pipeline (there is a short 24-inch ductile iron section at its upstream end) is made mostly of fiberglass-composite material. Currently the pipeline is pressurized to about 40 pounds per square inch gage (psig), based on the estimated 1991 PDF. If this pipeline is used as a conventional force main, the steady state discharge pressure will be about 55 psig for a 2015 PFD of 21.7 mgd. Surge-related pressures could be as high as 155 psig. Fiberglass pipe is more prone to rupture than cast iron or steel pipe. Given the relative material strength and the range of operating pressures, use of the existing pipeline as a force main is not recommended. Considering the key role this pipeline will play in the southern sections conveyance system, a new force main will be constructed to replace the 30-inch existing pipeline. The new force main will be 24-inch diameter and be made of an appropriate force main material, such as mortar-lined ductile iron pipe. The existing 30inch force main will either be abandoned in place, or connected in parallel with the new force main to serve as a backup. Only project design work for this project is contemplated for the current planning period.
