City of ~ <br />Ell{ River <br /> <br /> <br />June 30, 1993 <br /> <br />Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />Otsego City Hall <br />13474 NE 95th Street <br />Otsego, MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: JOINT SEWAGE TREATMENT PLAN <br /> <br />Dear Council Members: <br /> <br />Construction cost for an expansion project of this capacity would probably be about six million <br />dollars. If the joint sewage treatment plan is implemented, the plant's capacity would be <br />increased to 2.55 MGD and the construction would cost an additional one million dollars. Other <br />costs include the sharing of existing facilities, metering and sampling of Otsego's sewage, and <br />redesign and administration fees as shown in the attached Exhibit. Total construction cost for <br />Otsego would probably be $1,500,000 without taking into account the collection system and lift <br />stations for sewage conveyance. The subsequent sewage treatment charge would probably be <br />$2.00/1,000 gallons for the first year (1995) and would be subject to adjustment each year. <br /> <br />Design of the WWTP expansion has begun due to the fact that the existing facilities appeared to <br />reach the critical operational capacity earlier this year. All of our treatment units had to be <br />operated in order to control the effluent quality. The joint plan will inevitably delay the project <br />schedule and may potentially cause the existing plant to violate effluent standards. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />P.O.
