The location of <br />this room in close proximity to the high service pump room, mechanical room, and generator <br />room provide for short conduit and wire runs. <br />Mechanical Room <br />This room contains the make-up air, dehumidification, and HVAC equipment. The location of this <br />room on an outside wall provides space for air louvers. <br />Blower Room <br />The blower room contains the filter backwash blower. The backwash blower provides air which is <br />used to help clean the filter media during a backwash. <br />Office/Control Room/Lab <br />An office/control room/lab is provided for operators to have a SCADA computer to monitor and <br />control the water system. A lab sink and desktop analyzer will be provided to allow operators to <br />monitor water quality. The office is located in the front of the building next to the entrance, and <br />has lots of windows for natural light. <br />Generator Room <br />A standby generator will be located in the generator room. The generator is capable of running <br />the water treatment plant in the event of a power outage or possibly for peak shaving (peak <br />shaving requires additional emissions compliance). The service entrance and automatic transfer <br />switch are located in this room. Two exterior walls are provided for intake and exhaust louvers. <br />Upper revel <br />The upper level is depicted on the Upper Level Floor Plan in Appendix F. The upper level <br />consists of filters and walkways. Windows will be provided in the filter room to allow for natural <br />lighting. Walkways will be provided around the filters to allow the plant operator to inspect the <br />operating conditions of the filters. Control panels (fixed or mobile) will be provided to allow the <br />operators to manually initiate backwashes from the upper level. <br />Clearwell <br />A clearwell is located adjacent to the gravity filter treatment facility. The clearwell provides <br />storage and operational flexibility (the box shown on Figure 1 A in Appendix F represents 1 million <br />gallons of underground storage). This storage is necessary to (1) maintain a volume of water for <br />backwashing filter cells, (2) to provide the flexibility to treat water at a rate different than the raw <br />water pumping rate, and (3) to provide additional storage for the distribution system. <br />To provide operational flexibility and to supplement system storage, a 1 million gallon clearwell is <br />the minimum size recommended. <br />FEASIBILITY STUDY RAMSY 154354 <br />Page 31 <br />
