Title
Authorizing the appropriation and expenditure of $145,000 from the Water Replacement Fund for Four Ultra Violet (UV)254 Meters; authorizing the Mayor to accept bids and award contracts for Four UV254 Meters; and declaring an emergency.
Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
The Collins Park Water Treatment Plant Laboratory has determined that monitoring organic carbon levels is an extremely effective tool for optimizing treatment during periods of poor raw water quality. In addition, tracking organic carbon significantly enhances ozone process control and overall treatment performance.
To support this objective, the installation of four in-line UV254 analyzers is necessary. These meters will continuously monitor organic carbon levels at key process locations: raw water, settled water, post-ozone, and finished (tap) water. Continuous monitoring at these points will provide real-time data to improve operational decision-making, strengthen process control, and maintain consistent water quality.
