EXHIBIT D
SCOPE OF WORK
Project Description/Purpose:
The Northeast Wastewater Treatment Plant will be constructed near the intersection of 1 -10 and
State Hwy 146 in northeast Harris County. The ultimate plant capacity is 16 MGD, with the
construction sequenced into four -- 4 MGD increments. The City has acquired a 44 acre site
bordered on the north by a 100 -foot Union Pacific rail yard, a 50 -foot wide CenterPoint Energy
Transmission Tower right -of -way and a 50 -foot wide Texas Eastern Products pipeline right -of-
way. The eastern boundary is adjacent to an active Union Pacific rail line, while the southern
boundary is Cedar Bayou Tidal in the Trinity-San Jacinto Coastal Basin. The western boundary
is undeveloped land suitable for commercial and residential development. A wooded 150 -foot
wide buffer zone has been reserved around the perimeter of the property occupying
approximately 23 acres. The ultimate 16 MGD wastewater treatment plant will occupy
approximately 12 of the remaining 21 acres of site.
The City of Baytown was issued a permit for Phase I construction by the Texas Commission of
Environmental Quality (TPDES Permit No. WQ0010395010). The permit provides for an
average daily flow of four (4) MGD with a 2 -hr Peak Flow of 13,889 gpm and an effluent quality
of 20 mg/l BOD -5 and 20 mg/I TSS. Phase I is designed to accommodate a population of 40,000
people, which includes existing population diverted from the East District Plant Service Area and
new growth in the I -10 and Highway 146 corridors. It is anticipated that when the off -site sewer
facilities are completed in 2007 that the new Plant will receive approximately 1.0 MGD of
diverted flow.
The proposed wastewater treatment plant will consist of an on -site lift station and a headworks
structure consisting of a mechanical bar screen and aerated grit chamber. A conventional
activated sludge process provides biological treatment followed by clarification and disinfection
with chlorine, with final treatment being de- chlorination prior to discharge. Excess sludge
generated in the treatment process will be aerobically digested and dewatered on site for off site
disposal.
