JUSTIFICATION: (Attach additional pages if needed)
Durin routine scheduled maintenance on one of the two existing washer compactors, it was discovered
9
that the press mechanism was damaged; most likely due to a foreign object being caught in the
compaction mechanism. It was subsequently determined to be beyond repair by the manufacturer.
A technical evaluation was conducted by SPF Water Engineering. It was determined that the only
equipment that would be compatible with the existing control panel and screen configuration was the
ROTOMAP WAP by Huber Technology. The washer compactor is specialized solids separation
equipment and is available only through the manufacturer. The washer compactor works in conjunction
with our existing Huber Technology influent screens. Compatibility of equipment components,
accessories, and replacement parts are essential.
