The Anchorage Water and Wastewater Utility (AWWU) is soliciting proposals from qualified firms to render professional services for an updated Facility Plan for the Girdwood Wastewater Treatment Facility (GWWTF). The anticipated period of performance is six months from Notice to Proceed. The GWWTF is a tertiary (three-stage) wastewater treatment facility that operates under secondary treatment standards set forth in the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. The NPDES permit limits the loading of total suspended solids (TSS), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), and fecal coliforms to the Glacier Creek outfall. The facility receives wastewater from the Girdwood Community and incorporates grit removal, fine screening, activated sludge, secondary clarification, mixed media filtration, and chlorine disinfection. The Girdwood wastewater influent is unique in that it is low temperature, dilute, low strength, and is believed to contain large amounts of poorsettling glacial silt. The flows are also highly variable due to high levels of inflow and infiltration (I/I) and the transient/recreational nature of the community.
