Background/Explanation:
The SCBWRF utilizes a headworks structure and grit removal system that were installed as part of the 1993 and 1996 facility expansion respectively. The headworks screening and grit removal are important protective and preventative measures that reduce operation costs at the facility. The existing headworks and grit removal facilities had reached the end of their useful life and required replacement. Pinellas County Utilities selected the Design Build Team of Garney Companies, Inc. and Gresham Smith to design and construct the project. Phase 1 included the conceptual design development, diagrams and specifications. Phase 2 included developing the “not to exceed” lump sum price to permit and construct the project.
