RMOW council has awarded a $1 million contract to replace and refurbish four aging sedimentation tanks over the next two years at Whistler’s Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP).
The WWTP is equipped with two primary sedimentation tanks and two equalization tanks, designed to remove solids and organic matter from wastewater. At the end of their lifespans, a complete overhaul and replacement of some of the tanks’ components is required.
The contract, awarded to CHB Services Ltd., is worth $1,044,290, 23 per cent lower than the only other eligible bid.
Work is slated to begin in May. The project is expected to be completed by September 29, 2026. The tank replacement work will be scheduled to minimize adverse impacts on the WWTP process.
