Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Town of Canton, Connecticut, acting through its Water Pollution Control Authority, is requesting the submittal of a Statement of Qualifications from engineering firms for services to prepare a Wastewater Facilities Plan of the Town’s Water Pollution Control Facility (WPCF) and wastewater collection system. It is the Town's intent to hire an engineering firm with significant experience in wastewater treatment and collection system evaluation, planning, permitting, design and construction phase engineering services. The Statement of Qualifications will be reviewed and some or all of the firms may be requested to attend an interview to further clarify the proposer's qualifications, project understanding and approach. The scope of services will be negotiated with the successful respondent. However, it is expected that the Wastewater Facilities Plan will address these major areas of study over a 20-year planning period: • Define existing and future flows and loads. • Determine current and future unit process capacity. • Determination of performance and/or capacity deficiencies or problems. • Estimation of current and future needs. • Evaluation of alternatives to address needs. • Review of the Town's current Sewer Service Area Map and identify updates, if needed, to accommodate future sewer extensions and for consistency with the most recent State of CT and Town Plans of Conservation and Development. • Evaluation of Infiltration/Inflow (I/I) with recommendations to address concerns. • Evaluation of climate change resiliency.
