Council hires engineers to prepare phosphorus reduction plan under state rules
Summary
Kewanee authorized an engineering agreement with Crawford, Murphy & Tilly to prepare a phosphorus-reduction plan for the wastewater treatment plant after the State of Illinois imposed new phosphorus limits; council approved the resolution 4-0.
The City of Kewanee voted July 13 to hire Crawford, Murphy & Tilly, Inc. to prepare a phosphorus reduction plan for the wastewater treatment plant required by the State of Illinois.
City staff emphasized this requirement is separate from earlier discussions about chloride and that the state is placing strict new limits on phosphorus in treated wastewater. The resolution to authorize engineering services passed unanimously, 4-0.
Staff said the engineering work will identify design options, timelines and potential costs so the city can apply for available low-interest loan funds offered by the state for compliance. No specific contract dollar amount or timeline was provided in the meeting minutes.
