Section 2 i Experience/Background Pahoa Solid Waste Facility 3D Rendering SAIC is now starting the design work on a brand new station (Ocean View) which is located in an under - served area at the south end of the Big Island. This facility will utilize many of the prototypical features developed for the four other stations. An article regarding the Pahoa station opening and dedication can be found at the following website: http://www.bigislandvideonews.com/2011/06/18/video-new-3-9- million-pahoa-transfer-station-opens/. Bow Lake Processing/Transfer Station King County Solid Waste Division King County, Washington is preparing its solid waste transfer system for solid waste export when the in - county Cedar Hills landfill closes in 2016. As part of this effort, the Bow Lake Transfer/Recycling Station requires a complete replacement and upsizing to 2,500 tons per day. As a result of our completion of the Station's initial facility master plan and subsequent updates, SAIC was selected to implement the design and construction of the replacement facility. Construction of the new facility is now entering the final year of a four-year phased construction process that was developed by SAIC so that the site could provide uninterrupted service to the County customers in that area of the county. The new 16-acre Station was designed to handle the prospective 2,500 tons per day of municipal solid waste and total annual customer traffic of 382,000 vehicles. The Station has separate recycling drop- off areas to accept scrap metal (no charge) and appliances, fluorescent lamps, wood waste, and yard waste (for a fee), as well as an area for a future household hazardous waste (HHW) facility. The Station operates 24 hours per day during the week and 12 hours per day on weekends. SAIC Energy, Environment & Infrastructure, LLC i 2-4
