CONTRACT NO. 1051
CLEANING OF DIGESTION TANK NO. 2 AT THE ENCINA WATER
POLLUTION CONTROL FACILITY
STATEMENT OF THE MATTER: The Joint Advisory Committee for the Encina Water
Pollution Control Facility has approved advertising for bids for cleaning Digester
No. 2.
Recently, heavy rainfall and an overtaxed grit removal system have caused a substan-
tial new accumulation of grit in the digesters using up valuable capacity. At the
March 8, 1978 meeting of the JAC staff, the grit accumulation in the digesters was
discussed and there was general agreement that the digesters should be cleaned as
often as necessary to offset the grit build-up. Accordingly, both digesters should
be cleaned in the near future.
Since Digester No. 2 is scheduled to receive new mixing equipment in June, it would
be advantageous to clean it immediately prior to installing the system.
The estimated cost of the cleaning is $25,000. Funds have been set aside in Account
No. 12-117-2450 for the project.
