Board of Public Works Meeting Date: June 22, 2017
Noelle Osborne, Plant Operations Supervisor
Wastewater Department
NWTF HVAC Upgrades Project
To approve the contract award for construction phase services for the HVAC
Upgrades project to Wright Pierce of Topsham, ME in the amount not to
exceed $52,907. Funding will be through: Department: 169 Wastewater;
Activity: Control Building HVAC Upgrades.
Wright Pierce Scope of Work and Fee.
The Wastewater Treatment Facility (WWTF) is in need of replacing four air
handling units that were originally installed during the 1972 or 1988 upgrades.
These units provide fresh air from outside that is either heated or cooled to
provide a comfortable working environment for plant personnel. Several of
the units have failed and are beyond repair.
Wright Pierce was contracted to design the upgrades to the HVAC system in
August 2016. Originally the project was to replace 4 major air handlers but
has since grown to include air conditioning and heating for 3 other offices, new
LED lights in the Admin building and new ceiling tiles to replace those being
demolished in the upgrade process.
The construction contract for this project was approved for award to the
Monadnock Building Company at the May BPW meeting.
Wright Pierce is ready to provide construction phase services promptly for this
project once approved. They have completed numerous HVAC projects in
many wastewater plants including some at the NWTF during past upgrades and
are well qualified for this work.
