Background/Discussion As discussed on May 7, 2018, staff has finalized details for the extension of the public sewer system along the Great Northern Trail (GNT) to accommodate a permanent connection of a leachate pipeline from the Elk River Landfill to our sewer collection system. This permanent connection is required to be complete for continued disposal of landfill leachate from the Elk River Landfill to Elk River's public sewer system as detailed in their current Special Discharge Permit. The project will install a new publicly-owned lift station near the intersection of the GNT and 221" Avenue and associated forcemain to the existing collection system located near Meadowvale Elementary School. It will further include a parking area off of 221"Avenue that will serve the new lift station and support 10 public parking spaces for GNT users. Elk River Landfill will extend a private leachate pipe line from their site directly to the new public lift station near 221"Avenue. This pipeline will also be placed,via the attached License Agreement, along the GNT right-of-way. The agreements set for approval are the required documents detailing the responsibilities for Elk River Landfill to deliver the project. Upon approvals with this action,installation of the improvements will begin in early June and last through the summer months of 2019. The construction of the pipeline will require closing of segments of the GNT this summer. We will work with the contractor to assure these closures are minimized and use our communication channels to notify users. Financial Impact All improvements will be paid for by Elk River Landfill,Inc. Details in the attached Utility Installation Agreement identify costs that are to be reimbursed. The agreement further details the Sewer Access Charge that will be paid by Elk River Landfill over a 5-year period. The 2019 rates for leachate treatment are established in the current Special Discharge Permit between Elk River Landfill and the city. The rates for treatment in future years have been established in the Utility Installation Agreement.
