Committee recommends SCADA contract for Dane County Landfill Site 3
Summary
Committee recommended awarding a contract for SCADA and remote monitoring systems at Landfill Site 3 to implement remote alarms and monitoring of condensate, leachate and underdrain systems.
The Public Works and Transportation Committee recommended approval of a contract to furnish SCADA and remote monitoring controls for Dane County Landfill Site 3.
John (S3) explained the award is the formal contract following a previously approved bid waiver. "This is for the SCADA controls," he said, "So all your monitoring controls, remote monitoring, of all the systems at the new landfill, including condensate, leachate, remote monitoring, underdrain system, etcetera." The system will feed alarms back to a central IT location and use a phone‑tree escalation for different alarm types.
Committee members asked where alerts would report; John said alarms route to a central IT closet and then escalate according to the pre‑established call list until someone responds. The committee approved the recommendation and will forward it to the county board.
