Wastewater Treatment Facility Improvements, Horseshoe Bend, Idaho

This project includes design and construction management for improvements of the existing wastewater treatment facility including the construction of two geomembrane lined lagoons, lift station improvements, an influent screen, an aeration system, a UV disinfection system, a laboratory/control building, and related improvements. This project is being funded through Rural Development, Idaho Community Development Block Grant, and City funds.



Wastewater Treatment Lagoons, Duckweed System (Lemma Grids) Snake River Lagoon, Fruitland, Idaho

This project consisted of the design and construction of a wastewater treatment facility which incorporated innovative technology. This included implementation of improvements designed to reduce total suspended solids being discharged into the Snake River. This technology consisted of installing a Geotechnical grid system over the lagoons and growing duckweed in each cubicle of the grid. Project Completion Date: 1992.


Wastewater System Improvements Project-Emmett, Idaho

The City of Emmett owns and operates a wastewater treatment lagoon to treat its municipal wastewater, and the biological characteristics of the lagoon are inadequate to treat the hydraulic and chemical make-up of the influent flows. The performance of the waste-water treatment facility has caused multiple violations of the City's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit with respect to biochemical oxygen de-mand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), ammonia, and pH levels. Holladay Engineering analyzed existing flow, chemical, and biological data and gathered new flow data to determine the cause of poor treatment performance. High hydraulic loading from groundwater influent to the sewer system as well as the biological characteristics of the lagoon are reducing treatment performance. Several facility upgrades were analyzed and a recommendation was made to eliminate wastewater permit violations.


Ultraviolet Disinfection Pilot Study Project-Middleton, Idaho

Holladay Engineering designed and implemented an ultraviolet (UV) disinfection pilot study for the City of Middleton. The pilot study was completed to provide proof of concept and performance for scale-up design of a UV disinfection system for treatment of lagoon effluent. Tasks included design of wastewater testing protocol, selection of pilot UV equipment, sampling, data analysis, generation of supportable conclusions, report generation, communicating project findings with local regulators, and scale-up design. Data analysis was focused on the effects of process parameters on inactivation of fecal coliform bacteria.
