Construction is well underway at the city\u2019s new $21.8 million Wastewater Treatment Plant.<\/p>\n
Bryce Davis has only been the city administrator of Eagle Grove for a little less than two months, but a busy 59 days it has been. When Davis went to work in his new role on December 26, 2017, he knew there were a lot of great things happening in this community, and he\u2019s proud to say there is even more on the way.
\nWastewater Treatment Plant \u201cWe are currently under budget,\u201d Davis said of the Wastewater Treatment Plant under construction on the northeast side of town.
\nThe projected $21.8 million – 25 acre (with extra land around for future use if needed) project is also right on schedule for construction, according to Davis.
\nThus far, a $26,000 Change Order has been submitted for a Control Power Transformer and affiliated items to complete the circuit in the generators which are required by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR).
\nTheir purpose is to prevent environmental spills should there ever be a power outage.
\n\u201cThese types of change orders are expected though. It\u2019s a big project,\u201d Davis said.
\nAs of last week, the selector walls for Oxidation Ditch #1 were poured, the solids processing building had all walls poured, and half of the aerobic digester walls were poured. The headworks wetwell foundation slab is also poured, and they expect the walls to be poured this week sometime, weather permitting.
