5 1- INTRODUCTION The Juneau Douglas Wastewater Treatment Plant (JDWWTP) is located about 1 mile south of town on the old mine tailings rock dump. It was designed and constructed in 1973 with the capacity to treat average daily flows of about 2.76 million gallons per day and peak daily flows of about 7.23 million gallons per day. It is an activated sludge system with grit removal in the headworks, two aeration basins, two secondary clarifiers, a ultraviolet (UV) light disinfection system and a disgester for treating and storing sludge prior to dewatering it with a belt filter press. The JDWWTP Site Plan Figure shows the JDWWTP Site and the location of the treatment units on the site.. With the plant nearing 40 years of age there is increasing interest in operation, maintenance and replacement costs for the plant. This report is a Facility Maintenance Evaluation Report that contains the following: Chapter 2 Replaced Equipment This chapter contains a summary of the equipment at the JDWWTP that has been replaced since the treatment plant was first constructed. It indicates that the City and Borough of Juneau (CBJ) has responsibly responded to issues of aging equipment over the years and has regularly replaced equipment that no longer performs as intended. Chapter 3 Equipment List, Maintenance Evaluation, Condition Assessment, Age and Estimated Useful Life This chapter contains a condition assessment and maintenance evaluation for each of the major wastewater treatment equipment items at the JDWWTP. It also contains a more inclusive table listing equipment at the JDWWTP, its age and an estimate of its remaining useful life. Carson Dorn Inc. Page 1-1

6 JDWWTP Facility Maintenance Evaluation Report Chapter 4 Equipment Maintenance Schedule, Staffing and Costs The chapter contains a summary of the maintenance activities, their required frequency, estimated labor hours to complete each activity and the estimated costs for the tasks. Chapter 5 Five Year Capital Replacement Chart The Five Year Capital Replacement Chart considers equipment with an estimated remaining useful life of 15 years or less and then estimates the annual costs based on the equipment failing within the next 15 years.

8 2 REPLACED EQUIPMENT The Juneau Douglas Wastewater Treatment Plant (JDWWTP) was designed and constructed in 1973 so many parts of the plant are over 40 years old. Assets at a waste water treatment plant can have estimated useful lives on the order of 30 to 40 years. So as expected, CBJ has begun the process of replacing some of the equipment at the JDWWTP that reached the end of its useful life and was no longer performing as intended. With equipment that has not been replaced and which regularly receives routine maintenance the useful life will keep being extended until the equipment item no longer performs as intended or becomes increasingly inefficient to operate. Original equipment items that have been replaced at the JDWWTP over the years include the following: Grit Removal Chain and Flight Control Building Auxiliary Pump No. 1 Control Building Auxiliary Pump No. 2 Clarifier No. 1 Drive, Sweep, Catwalk and Support Column Clarifier No. 2 Drive, Sweep, Catwalk and Support Column Return Activated Sludge Pump No. 1 Return Activated Sludge Pump No. 2 Belt Filter Press Water Booster Pump Unit Utility Water Booster Pump Drive Motor Wastewater Return Sump Pump No. 1 (currently out of service but soon to be replaced) It appears that CBJ has responsibly responded to issues of aging equipment over the years and regularly replaced equipment that no longer performed as intended. Carson Dorn Inc. Page 2-1

9 3 EQUIPMENT LIST, MAINTENANCE EVALUATION, CONDITION ASSESSMENT, AGE AND ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE All equipment will eventually reach the end of its useful life. Some equipment will reach this point sooner than others. For example a pump will wear out sooner if it is used more and will last longer if it is used less. The actual age of the pump is not as important as the amount of work the pump has done. There are many factors that will affect how much remaining life a given piece of equipment has. Factors such as poor installation, defective materials, corrosive environment and poor maintenance will shorten the useful life of a piece of equipment, whereas good installation, proper routine and preventative maintenance and a non-corrosive environment will tend to lengthen an equipment items life. Taking these factors into account and the age of piece of equipment, subjective opinions can be developed with regards to the estimated useful age of a piece of equipment. The following Table 1 JDWWTP Equipment List, Age and Estimated Useful Life is a summary of the treatment equipment units and other equipment at the JDWWTP along with its age and estimated remaining useful life.

14 3.1 HEADWORKS The primary purpose of the headworks area is removal of grit and other debris from the influent. The grit chain and flight and the circular grit collector are old but with the repairs that have been made over the years appear to be operating with no obvious problems. The auger monster screening system was installed in 2010 and also appears to be operating with no obvious problems. HEADWORKS BUILDING This building has a wood rafter roof and the roof doesn't appear to have any significant issues. The concrete foundation has a large "crack" that showed up shortly after construction in the 70's. Repairs have been made to the crack and it appears to be performing satisfactorily and there are no signs of leakage. CBJ regularly inspects the crack to make sure there are no leakage issues. The following treatment equipment items are evaluated in the following pages: GRIT CHAIN AND FLIGHT The grit chain and flight conveys grit that has settled in the circular grit removal chamber up a concrete conveyor trough and deposits the grit into a dumpster for subsequent disposal GRIT COLLECTOR, CIRCULAR The circular grit chamber provides a quiescent area for grit in the waste water influent to settle. The circular grit collector has a rake arm that slowly rotates in the collector and moves settled grit to a steeply inclined concrete slope where the grit slides down to the trough for the chain and flight where it is removed AUGER MONSTER The auger monster is an inclined screen that removes debris such as rags, strings and other materials that may form large rope mats in the treatment process. The debris is removed by the screens and the auger conveys the debris to a dumpster for subsequent disposal.

16 3.1.1 GRIT CHAIN AND FLIGHT AGE: 1YR CHAIN AND FLIGHT, 41 YRS DRIVE MOTOR AND GEAR REDUCER CONDITION: THE GRIT CHAIN AND FLIGHT WERE INSTALLED DURING INITIAL CONSTRUCTION OF THE JDWWTP. IT APPEARS THAT REGULAR MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN PERFORMED ON THE UNIT AND THAT DESPITE ITS AGE THE MOTOR AND GEAR REDUCER ARE STILL OPERATING SATISFACTORILY. THE FLIGHT AND CHAIN WERE REPLACED IN THE LAST YEAR AND SO SHOULD PROVIDE MANY YEARS OF SERVICE, ALTHOUGH IT WAS REPORTED THAT THE MANUFACTURER WILL NO LONGER BE PROVIDING REPLACEMENT PARTS. CONSEQUENTLY REPLACEMENT OF THE UNIT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED WHEN IT NEXT STARTS TO REQUIRE MAJOR MAINTENANCE. IN THE MEANTIME, CBJ IS COMMITTED TO HAVING REPLACEMENT PARTS PROFESSIONALLY MANUFACTURED UNTIL OVERALL UPGRADES TO THE GRIT REMOVAL SYSTEM IS REQUIRED ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE: CHAIN AND FLIGHT YRS, MOTOR AND GEAR REDUCER 5-15 YRS REPLACEMENT OF THE FLIGHT AND CHAIN ADDRESSED THE MOST SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM WITH THE GRIT CHAIN AND FLIGHT. IT CAN REASONABLY BE EXPECTED THAT THE MOTOR AND GEAR REDUCER WILL PERFORM AS REQUIRED FOR ANOTHER 5-15 YEARS WITH CONTINUED REGULAR MAINTENANCE. HOWEVER DUE TO ITS AGE, DURING REGULAR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS SPECIAL ATTENTION SHOULD BE PAID TO ANY OVERHEATING ISSUES, EXCESSIVE VIBRATIONS OR UNUSUAL SOUNDS AS THEY MAY INDICATE EMINENT FAILURE OF THE UNIT. GRIT CHAIN AND FLIGHT

17 3.1.2 GRIT COLLECTOR, CIRCULAR AGE: 41 yrs CONDITION: THE GRIT COLLECTOR WAS INSTALLED DURING INITIAL CONSTRUCTION OF THE JDWWTP. IT APPEARS THAT REGULAR OIL CHANGES AND GREASING HAVE BEEN PERFORMED ON THE UNIT. DESPITE ITS AGE THE MOTOR AND GEAR REDUCER ARE STILL OPERATING SATISFACTORILY. ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE: 5-15 YEARS OUTSIDE OF SOME COSMETIC ISSUES ON THE MOTOR AND GEAR REDUCER (RUST), THERE ARE NO OBVIOUS MAINTENANCE ISSUES WITH THE GRIT COLLECTOR. IT CAN REASONABLY BE EXPECTED THAT THE UNIT WILL PERFORM AS REQUIRED FOR ANOTHER 5-15 YEARS WITH CONTINUED REGULAR MAINTENANCE. HOWEVER DUE TO ITS AGE, DURING REGULAR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS SPECIAL ATTENTION SHOULD BE PAID TO ANY OVERHEATING ISSUES, EXCESSIVE VIBRATIONS OR UNUSUAL SOUNDS AS THEY MAY INDICATE EMINENT FAILURE OF THE UNIT.

18 3.1.3 AUGER MONSTER AGE: 4 CONDITION: THE AUGER MONSTER SCREENING SYSTEM WAS INSTALLED TO REMOVE DEBRIS THAT WAS FORMING BALLS OF STRING AND OTHER DEBRIS THROUGHOUT THE PLANT. THE UNIT IS RELATIVELY NEW BUT IS ALREADY SHOWING SIGNS OF THE CORROSIVE ENVIRONMENT EVIDENT IN THE HEADWORKS AREA. THE MAINTENANCE WORK ORDERS FOR THE AUGER MONSTER HAVE BEEN UPDATED TO INCLUDE ALL THE RECOMMENDED SERVICE SUCH AS INSPECTING AND CLEANING THE SPRAY WASH AND AUGER, AND CHECKING THE AUGER DRIVE ASSEMBLY. ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE: YEARS OUTSIDE OF SOME COSMETIC ISSUES ON THE MOTOR AND GEAR REDUCER (RUST), THERE ARE NO OBVIOUS MAINTENANCE ISSUES WITH THE AUGER. IT CAN REASONABLY BE EXPECTED THAT THE UNIT WILL PERFORM AS REQUIRED FOR ANOTHER YEARS WITH CONTINUED REGULAR MAINTENANCE. AUGER MONSTER

19 3.2 CONTROL BUILDING The Control Building houses the main office (including the Antero equipment maintenance computers and software), motor control center, laboratory, break room, a storage garage and the auxiliary pumps. The auxiliary pumps in the Control Building were replaced in 2012 and so are expected to perform for many years. The Antero facility maintenance software system is outdated and CBJ is evaluating more robust alternatives for replacing the management system. In the meantime the Antero software appears to be performing satisfactorily and will continue to be used to generate maintenance work orders for the equipment at the JDWWTP until it is replaced. CONTROL BUILDING This building has a brick exterior and metal beam and wood rafter roof with hot tar waterproofing. The Control Building and its roof do not appear to have any significant issues. Each of the following treatment equipment is evaluated in the following pages: AUXILIARY PUMPS NO. 1 AND NO.2 The Auxiliary Pumps are used for variety of purposes including draining the aeration basins, pond supernatant return, waste sludge and scum pumping. They were replaced with new pumps in 2012 and are performing satisfactorily ANTEROR MAINTENANCE DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM The Antero maintenance management system was installed in 1991 and consequently is old and outdated. CBJ is considering alternative maintenance management software that may provide additional features for equipment maintenance and management. Until such time as new software is purchased and installed, CBJ will continue to use the Antero system for generating maintenance work orders for equipment at the JDWWTP.

20 AUXILIARY PUMPS NO. 1 AND NO. 2 ANTERO MAINTENANCE DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM JDWWTP CONTROL BUILDING SITE PLAN

21 3.2.1 AUXILIARY PUMPS NO. 1 AND NO. 2 AGE: 2 yrs CONDITION: THE AUXILIARY PUMPS WERE REPLACED WITH NEW PUMPS APPROXIMATELY 2 YEARS AGO AND SO ARE IN RELATIVELY NEW CONDITION. REQUIRED MAINTENANCE IS BEING PERFORMED ON THEM ON A REGULAR BASIS. ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE: YEARS THE PUMPS ARE ESSENTIALLY NEW AND WITH PROPER REGULAR MAINTENANCE CAN BE EXPECTED TO LAST BETWEEN 30 TO 40 YEARS. AUXILIARY PUMPS NO. 1 AND NO. 2

22 3.2.2 ANTERO MAINTENANCE DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AGE: 23 yrs CONDITION: CBJ currently uses version (a 2008 version) of the Antero maintenance software tracking program, a product by AllMax Software. The most current version of Antero is (a 2014 version), more than a dozen revisions newer. While AllMax does support the antiquated CBJ version of Antero, it is suspected that such support will soon dissipate. Additionally, as Antero is primarily a maintenance software program, it does not incorporate many components of a full-featured asset management/equipment replacement program needed to effectively run CBJ Wastewater Utility (WWU) operations. Further, Antero has no GIS connectivity or internet based components which would enable the use of mobile devices and/or field real-time updates/inputting throughout the facilities. As such, CBJ WWU is currently examining more robust software alternatives to implement for system-wide asset management and maintenance programming. ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE: 3-5 YEARS The Antero maintenance software system is outdated and CBJ is evaluating more robust software alternatives. As such the remaining useful life is estimated to only be 3-5 years.

23 3.3 CLARIFIERS The clarifier s main purpose is to allow activated sludge to settle in the clarifiers and clean supernatant to be discharged from the plant as treated effluent. The settled activated sludge is either returned to the aeration basins to ensure adequate concentrations of microorganisms are maintained in the aeration basins for treatment of the waste water or the settled sludge is wasted to the sludge digester for treatment and disposal. The clarifiers were replaced in 2006 and there are no obvious problems with the clarifier operation. The return activated sludge pumps were replaced in 2009 and there are no obvious problems with the return activated sludge operation. The waste activated sludge pumps are still the original pumps and have been maintained since There does not appear to be any operating problems with the waste activated sludge pumps, but due to their age they should be carefully monitored. CLARIFIER BUILDING The Clarifier Building is showing signs of significant corrosion and should be considered for replacement. However, there is nothing in the building that appears to require immediate attention. Although it does not affect plant operation some of the doors are showing some aging and should be considered for replacement. The following treatment equipment items are evaluated in the following pages: CLARIFIERS NO. 1 AND NO. 2 The clarifiers receive mixed liquor from the aeration basins containing significant concentrations of suspended solids and microorganisms. The clarifiers allow the suspended solids and microorganisms to settle into a sludge blanket on the bottom of the clarifier and clear supernatant is allowed to flow over an effluent weir for final disinfection and discharge from the treatment facility RETURN ACTIVATED SLUDGE PUMPS NO. 1 AND NO. 2 The return activated sludge pumps are used to return microorganisms from the clarifiers to the aeration basins to maintain the necessary quantity of microorganisms needed to treat the sewage influent WASTE ACTIVATED SLUDGE PUMPS NO. 1 AND NO. 2 The waste activated sludge pumps are used to remove excess microorganisms from the clarifiers to the sludge digester when the quantity of microorganisms in the aeration basins becomes greater than the desired amount.

THEY ARE ALREADY SHOWING SIGNS OF THE CORROSIVE ENVIRONMENT EVIDENT IN THE CLAFIFIER AREA WITH RUST ON THE DRIVE UNITS. THE CLARIFIERS ARE BEING REGULARLY MAINTAINED. ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE: YEARS THERE ARE NO OBVIOUS MAINTENANCE ISSUES WITH THE CLARIFIERS AND IT CAN REASONABLY BE EXPECTED THAT THE UNITS WILL PERFORM AS REQUIRED FOR ANOTHER YEARS WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE. TYPICAL CLARIFIER DRIVE MECHANISM

26 3.3.2 RETURN ACTIVATED SLUDGE PUMPS NO. 1 AND NO. 2 AGE: 5 YRS CONDITION: THE RETURN ACTIVATED SLUDGE PUMPS ARE RELATIVELY NEW HAVING BEEN REPLACED ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO. WHILE THE SUBMERSIBLE PUMPS WERE NOT VISIBLE, RECORDS SHOW THEY ARE BEING PULLED AND INSPECTED ON AN ANNUAL BASIS. ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE: YEARS THERE ARE NO OBVIOUS MAINTENANCE ISSUES WITH THE RAS PUMPS AND IT CAN REASONABLY BE EXPECTED THAT THE UNITS WILL PERFORM AS REQUIRED FOR ANOTHER YEARS WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE. DISCHARGE PIPING FROM THE RAS PUMPS APPEARS OLD AND SHOULD BE REGULARLY MONITORED FOR LEAKS. RETURN ACTIVATED SLUDGE SUBMERSIBLE PUMP SUMP

27 3.3.3 WASTE ACTIVATED SLUDGE PUMPS NO. 1 AND NO. 2 AGE: 41 YRS CONDITION: THE WAS PUMPS WERE INSTALLED DURING INITIAL CONSTRUCTION OF THE JDWWTP. IT APPEARS THAT REGULAR GREASING HAS BEEN PERFORMED ON THE UNIT. DESPITE ITS AGE THE PUMPS ARE STILL OPERATING SATISFACTORILY. ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE: 5-15 YEARS OUTSIDE OF COSMETIC ISSUES ON THE MOTOR, THERE ARE NO OBVIOUS MAINTENANCE ISSUES WITH THE WAS PUMPS. IT CAN REASONABLY BE EXPECTED THAT THE PUMPS WILL PERFORM AS REQUIRED FOR ANOTHER 5-15 YEARS WITH CONTINUED REGULAR MAINTENANCE. HOWEVER DUE TO THEIR AGE, DURING REGULAR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS SPECIAL ATTENTION SHOULD BE PAID TO ANY OVERHEATING ISSUES, EXCESSIVE VIBRATIONS OR UNUSUAL SOUNDS AS THEY MAY INDICATE EMINENT FAILURE OF THE UNIT. WASTE ACTIVATED SLUDGE PUMP MOTOR

28 3.4 AERATION BASINS In the aeration basins the raw sewage is mixed with microorganisms resident in the basin and returned from the clarifiers. Under proper conditions of mixing and aeration the microorganisms use the organic material in the raw influent for reproduction and respiration. The microorganism bodies and the material that adheres to them are heavier than water and so will sink in the clarifiers. This sinking material is the activated sludge blanket in the clarifier. The mechanical surface aerators in the aeration basins have been maintained since 1973 but they have not been replaced. There does not appear to be any operating problems with the aerators, but due to their age and the corrosive environment, the platforms for their motors have significant deterioration. CBJ is replacing the platforms and access walkways to the surface aerators in the aeration basins. AERATION BASIN BUILDINGS The Aeration Basin Buildings are showing signs of significant corrosion and should be considered for replacement. However despite their appearance, there is nothing in the buildings that appear to require immediate attention. The concrete foundations appear to be in good condition however the concrete stairs have exposed rebar and should be replaced for operator safety. The following treatment equipment items are evaluated in the following pages: AERATION BASIN AERATORS 1, 2, 3, AND 4 The aeration basin aerators consist of large electric motor driven mixers on floats. These aerators keep the oxygen level in the aeration basin high enough to encourage the growth of aerobic microorganisms and ensure mixing within the basin to reduce dead spots where oxygen levels may be low or where solids may settle out.

30 3.4.1 AERATION BASIN AERATORS 1, 2, 3, AND 4 AGE: 41 CONDITION: THE MECHANICAL SURFACE AERATORS HAVE BEEN IN OPERATION FOR OVER 40 YEARS IN A HARSH ENVIRONMENT. MAINTENANCE HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN PERFORMED ON THE AERATORS AND THEY APPEAR TO BE OPERATING SATISFACTORILY. HOWEVER ACCESS TO THE AERATORS HAS BEEN RESTRICTED IN RECENT YEARS DUE TO THE CONDITION OF THE METAL AERATOR PLATFORMS. DUE TO THE LIMITED ACCESS REGULAR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS ARE NOT BEING PERFORMED. RECOMMEND REPAIRING THE WALKWAYS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO ALLOW ACCESS TO THE AERATORS FOR MAINTENANCE. CONSTRUCTION PLANS ARE BEING DEVELOPED FOR THE REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF THE CATWALKS AND PLATFORMS. REPAIRS ARE SCHEDULED TO BE COMPLETED BY FALL ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE: 5-15 YEARS THERE ARE NO OBVIOUS MAINTENANCE ISSUES WITH THE AERATORS. IT CAN REASONABLY BE EXPECTED THAT THE UNITS WILL PERFORM AS REQUIRED FOR ANOTHER 5-15 YEARS WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE WHICH MAKES REPAIRING THE WALKWAYS EVEN MORE CRITICAL. DUE TO THEIR AGE, SPECIAL ATTENTION SHOULD BE PAID TO ANY OVERHEATING ISSUES, EXCESSIVE VIBRATIONS OR UNUSUAL SOUNDS FROM THE AERATORS AS THEY MAY INDICATE EMINENT FAILURE OF THE UNIT. TYPICAL AERATION BASIN AERATOR

31 3.5 UV SYSTEM The UV system uses ultraviolet light to inactivate fecal coliform bacteria in the effluent. The UV system was constructed in There does not appear to be any operating problems with the UV disinfection system. UV BUILDING The UV building structurally seems fine but there are some issues with the insulation. It appears that the vinyl coating in some locations has degraded and moisture has made it to the outer skin and condensed. The insulation in places needs to be removed and replaced. The inside face of the building skin should be checked to make sure it hasn't been damaged by the moisture. The following treatment equipment items are evaluated in the following pages: UV SYSTEM BANK A AND BANK B Two banks of UV lights are used to treat the effluent with ultraviolet light. This inactivates the fecal coliform bacteria in the effluent preventing them from reproducing.

33 3.5.1 UV DISINFECTION BANK A AND BANK B AGE: 15 YRS CONDITION: THE UV DISINFECTION SYSTEM IS A NEWER COMPONENT OF THE PLANT HAVING BEEN CONSTRUCTED ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO. THE UV CHANNEL AND THE BANKS OF LIGHTS ARE REGULARLY CLEANED. THE LAMPS ARE BEING REPLACED ON AN ANNUAL BASIS. ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE: YEARS THERE ARE NO OBVIOUS MAINTENANCE ISSUES WITH THE UV DISINFECTION SYSTEM. IT CAN REASONABLY BE EXPECTED THAT THE UNITS WILL PERFORM AS REQUIRED FOR ANOTHER YEARS WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE. UV DISINFECTION SYSTEM

34 3.6 SLUDGE DIGESTER Waste sludge from the clarifiers is pumped to the sludge digester to hold the sludge until it is ready to be processed for disposal. There is some reduction of volatile solids due to respiration of the microorganisms in the waste sludge. The mechanical surface aerator in the sludge digester basins has been maintained since 1973 but it has not been replaced. There does not appear to be any operating problems with the aerator, but due to its age and the corrosive environment, the platforms for the motors has significant deterioration. CBJ is replacing the platform and access walkway to the surface aerators in the sludge digester. SLUDGE DIGESTER BUILDING The Sludge Digester Buildings is showing signs of significant corrosion and should be considered for replacement. Parts of the roof have rusted to the point where the vent stack is in danger of collapsing into the digester. We suggest the vent stack be removed so that it doesn t fall into the digester. The concrete foundations appear to be in good condition. The old concrete stairs with exposed rebar have been replaced with new metal stairs. The following treatment equipment items are evaluated in the following pages: SLUDGE DIGESTER AERATOR The sludge digester aerator consists of a large mixer on floats. This aerator keep the oxygen level in the aeration basin high enough to encourage the growth of aerobic microorganisms and to ensure mixing within the basin to reduce dead spots where oxygen levels may be low or where solids may settle out.

36 3.6.1 SLUDGE DIGESTER AERATOR AGE: 41 CONDITION: THIS MECHANICAL SURFACE AERATORS HAVE BEEN IN OPERATION FOR OVER 40 YEARS IN A HARSH ENVIRONMENT. MAINTENANCE HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN PERFORMED ON THE AERATOR AND IT APPEARS TO BE OPERATING SATISFACTORILY. ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE: 5-15 YEARS THERE ARE NO OBVIOUS MAINTENANCE ISSUES WITH THE AERATOR. IT CAN REASONABLY BE EXPECTED THAT THE UNIT WILL PERFORM AS REQUIRED FOR ANOTHER 5-15 YEARS WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE. DUE TO IT'S AGE, SPECIAL ATTENTION SHOULD BE PAID TO ANY OVERHEATING ISSUES, EXCESSIVE VIBRATIONS OR UNUSUAL SOUNDS FROM THE AERATOR AS THEY MAY INDICATE EMINENT FAILURE OF THE UNIT. AERATION BASIN AERATOR SIMILAR TO SLUDGE DIGESTER AERATOR

37 3.7 BELT FILTER PRESS The belt filter press and its associated equipment, the hydraulic pressure pump and the wash water booster pump were constructed in The belt filter press has been regularly maintained and there does not appear to be any operating problems with the belt filter press or its associated equipment. INCINERATOR BUILDING 2 ND FLOOR (BELT PRESS LOCATION) The belt filter press is located on the second floor of the Incinerator Building. The decommissioned sludge incinerator is also located in the Incinerator Building. The main structural steel for the belt filter press area is hot dip galvanized steel and appears to be in good shape. There is some trim between the concrete curb for the room and the exterior walls that is showing signs of significant corrosion and should be considered for replacement. The following treatment equipment items are evaluated in the following pages: BELT FILTER PRESS Sludge is pumped to the belt filter press from the sludge digester. Polymer is added to the sludge to form a floc that holds together under pressure. The belt press consists of two belts that pass over rollers. Sludge is applied between the two belts and as the belts pass over the rollers the sludge is squeezed between the belts to force out water. The belt press can increase the percent solids in the sludge from about 2% up to about 15% solids BELT FILTER PRESS BOOSTER PUMP The belts on the belt press are continuously washed to keep them free from solids. The belt filter press booster pump increased the water pressure so that the belt cleaning is more effective BELT FILTER PRESS HYDRAULIC PRESSURE PUMP The belt filter press hydraulic pressure pump provides power for the belt tensioning system and for the belt drive motors.

42 3.8 SLUDGE FEED SYSTEM The sludge feed system consisting of the sludge feed pump, sludge grinder, polymer mixers and the polymer feed pump were constructed in The pumps and polymer system have been regularly maintained and there does not appear to be any operating problems with the sludge feed pump or its associated equipment. INCINERATOR BUILDING BASEMENT (SLUDGE PUMP AND SLUDGE GRINDER LOCATION), 1 ST FLOOR (POLYMER MIXERS AND POLYMER FEED PUMP LOCATION) The sludge feed system is housed in basement of the sludge incinerator building. The concrete and main structural steel for the sludge feed room appears to be in good shape. The following treatment equipment items are evaluated in the following pages: BFP SLUDGE FEED PUMP The BFP sludge feed pump transfers liquid waste sludge from the sludge digester to the belt press. The pump is a progressive cavity pump that is controlled by variable speed drives so that the rate at which sludge is applied to the belt press can be controlled SLUDGE GRINDER The sludge grinder macerates the sludge before it is pumped to the belt press to make sure that there are no lumps or clumps of material that would interfere in the operation of the belt filter press POLYMER MIXER NO. 1 AND NO. 2 Polymer is made in batches by adding a liquid or dry concentrated polymer to water and then blending the mixture. The polymer is typically made in advance so that it has the opportunity to rest before it is added to sludge POLYMER FEED PUMP The polymer feed pump is a progressive cavity pump that is controlled by a variable frequency drive so that the amount of polymer added to the sludge can be carefully controlled to ensure the sludge can be dewatered to the maximum extent possible.

48 3.9 WASTEWATER RETURN SUMP PUMPS The wastewater return sump pumps were constructed in The pumps have been regularly maintained but despite regular maintenance, one of the pumps has failed. CBJ is in the process of replacing both sump pumps. INCINERATOR BUILDING BASEMENT (SUMP PUMP LOCATION) The sump pumps are housed in basement of the sludge incinerator building adjacent to the sludge feed pump. The concrete and main structural steel for the room appears to be in good shape. The following treatment equipment items are evaluated in the following pages: WASTEWATER RETURN SUMP PUMPS NO. 1 AND NO. 2 The wastewater return sump pumps are submersible pumps that were used to return supernatant from the ash pond when the incinerator was in operation and currently returns filtrate from the belt filter to the plant headworks.

51 3.10 UTILITY WATER PUMPS The utility water pumps were installed in 1990 and one of the drive motors was replaced about 3 years ago. The pumps have been regularly maintained and appear to be operating satisfactorily. INCINERATOR BUILDING BASEMENT (UTILITY WATER PUMP LOCATION) The utility water pumps are housed in basement of the sludge incinerator building adjacent to the incinerator. The concrete and main structural steel for the room appears to be in good shape. The following treatment equipment items are evaluated in the following pages: UTILITY WATER PUMPS NO. 1 AND NO. 2 The utility water pumps are end suction centrifugal pumps that pump treated plant effluent to a non-potable water system. This system is used to provide pressurized water for items such as spray bars in the clarifiers and spray nozzles for the auger monster.

54 4 - EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE, STAFFING AND COSTS The CBJ uses Antero Maintenance Data Management Software for maintaining all equipment at the JDWWTP. Over 500 Work Orders were generated and completed in 2013 for maintenance of equipment at the JDWWTP. Despite regularly completing the work orders, there is great variability in entering data into the completed work orders such as the employee that the completed the work and the hours necessary to complete the task. There are also tasks that staff know need to be done for which no work orders are generated. Replacing the UV lamps is an example of a task for which there is no work order. There are also no work orders for maintenance of the sludge grinder, although there is one for inspecting the sludge grinder controller. The completed work orders under the Antero maintenance system were reviewed and compared to the operation and maintenance manuals to develop the following Table 2, JDWWTP Maintenance Schedule, Staffing and Costs. The Table contains the maintenance activity, frequency required, estimated labor to complete the activity, annual total labor for each activity and costs for maintaining all equipment at the JDWWTP. Antero appears to be an older program for managing maintenance activities at the JDWWTP but it is still functional. It is the same software package that is used for maintenance at Juneau s other major waste water treatment plant the Mendenhall Plant. CBJ is evaluating other more robust facility management software systems for implementation. The CBJ Wastewater Utility currently staffs 3 full-time wastewater treatment operators at the Juneau-Douglas Wastewater Treatment Plant (JDTP) for system operations and preventative maintenance work orders. Additional resources are provided by staff, from Carson Dorn Inc. Page 4-1
