Package 5: DCCM completed field investigation and final design services to replace the existing 69th Street wastewater treatment process instrumentation and controls for the entire wastewater facility. Work included the replacement of flow meters, analyzers, pressure and level instruments, pneumatic and electrical control valves, electrical conduits, and control panels for the lift station, headworks, flow distribution controls, oxygen reactors, clarifiers, return activated sludge and waste activated sludge pump stations, sludge thickeners, and an odor control system.

Package 6: DCCM provided a preliminary engineering study, including filter pilot testing and evaluation of new tertiary filter technology to replace the existing sand filters at the 69th Street WWTP. DCCM worked with the City of Houston to procure a new filter system. The final design included modifying the existing treatment facility infrastructure and adjusting the hydraulic profile to fit the new filter system, a new electrical system with instrumentation, and control systems. The existing sand filter system was demolished and replaced with a Kruger disc filter system. The new disc filter system is rated for an average of 220 million gallons per day and a peak flow of 440 million gallons per day, making it Texas’s largest tertiary filter system installation.
