This is a service / maintenance or supply contract in Elizabethtown, New York. Contact the soliciting agency for additional information.

The Town of Willsboro owns and operates one sewage treatment facility located at 76 Gillilland Lane in Willsboro, NY. The plant collects all the wastewater from the Hamlet of Willsboro and discharges the effluent into the Boquet River, a tributary of Lake Champlain. The Willsboro plant has a membrane bioreactor ("MBR") treatment process with closed vessel UV disinfection that was constructed in 2019 in accordance with State Pollution Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) Permit 0239682 issued by the New York State Department of Environment Conservation (NYSDEC) The Towns WWTP has a modified secondary clarifier from the old treatment process that now functions as an equalization ("EQ") tank, but is limited to 24,000 gallons. The Town also experiences highly variable flows due to inflow and infiltration ("I&I") and the MBR is not able to keep up with the treatment demand. In 2023, there were (2) instances of partially treated overflows due to the small EQ volume capacity. Additionally, the MBR's cleaning maintenance process requires taking the MBR off-line to perform backwashing and cleaning; this can only be accomplished during extremely low flows. The Town requires an additional EQ tank and MBR cleaning tank that is sufficiently sized to address the scope of needs and maintain SPDES compliance. The Town further requires an expansion for their lab facilities to provide a longer term solution from the transition from the older RBC process to the new MBR process that requires more frequent and rigorous sampling and lab testing. Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprises (M/WBE) businesses and Section 3 businesses are strongly encouraged to participate in this project. The Town is an equal opportunity employer.
