McCoy Waste Water Treatment Plant. These upgrades include:•Influent Wet Well: Replace mixing system (submersible mixer) equipment to keep contents well mixed in the wet well at the Headworks Building.•Extended Aeration (Oxidation Ditch) Process: Construct an oxidation ditch for an average dailyflow of 1.32 MG based on the WWTP flow analysis calculations performed and previously provided by USACE and approved by Ft. McCoy DPW. The oxidation ditch is designed to provide biological treatment.•Return Activated Sludge (RAS) Pumps: Remove and replace with properly sized RAS pumps to accommodate Oxidation Ditch based upon solids balance and applicable design criteria.•Waste Activated Sludge (WAS) Pumps: Remove and replace with the appropriate size and numbers of WAS pumps based on applicable design criteria for solids.•UV Disinfection: Replace the existing UV disinfection system with a more energy efficient system that also incorporates automatic chemical/mechanical sleeve cleaning. Install solid plank grating overthe UV lamps to prevent personnel exposure to UV light.•Post Aeration System Improvements:•Install additional air diffusers or replace existing diffusers in UV disinfection tank channel to increase effluent DO levels.•Install an automatic DO control system to help ensure effluent DO limit is always met. The new DO system will be designed to turn on one or additional existing blowers if DO is too low or turn off blowers if DO is adequate.•Allow capability to reuse the existing three blowers located in the Mechanical building for providing air for the diffusers.•New "Bio-solids Pumps/Blowers Building: Construct a new building to house the blowers for theconverted Aerobic Digester and the new RAS and WAS pumps and control systems. The new "Bio-solids Pumps/Blowers Building" is sized to accommodate all the piping and equipment components.•New Final Clarifiers Sludge Draw-off: Remove existing final clarifier sludge draw-off provisionsand replace with rapid sludge draw-off clarifier mechanisms. The rapid sludge draw-off clarifier mechanisms are recommended for use with the RAS high flow rates that are required to be returned to the Oxidation Ditch.•Complete the integration of the converted Aerobic Digesters and associated components andequipment into new building ("Bio-solids Pumps/Blowers Building") including necessary site work and utilities interface.•Influent Gate Power Actuator - Add electric or pneumatic power actuator for operation of influentgate upstream of fine screen in Headworks Building.•Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) System(s) - Provide PLC system(s) for all new process equipment control and provide control/feedback loop to existing Control Building for eventual integration (by others) into future supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) underdevelopment at Ft.
