BACKGROUND:
Background
The existing three basins of submerged membrane units at the Eastern Water Reclamation Facility have reached their useful service life of 10 years. These membranes are critical components of the facility’s advanced wastewater treatment system, which is designed to meet regulatory discharge limits set by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). To ensure compliance with FDEP standards and proper operation of the facility, City staff recommends replacing the existing membranes with thirty six (36) new MRM200 Kubota membrane units. MKI Services, Inc. has submitted a proposal dated October 13, 2025, to provide all labor, equipment, and materials necessary for the removal of the existing membranes, cleaning of the tanks, delivery, installation of the new units, and start-up services. The total project cost is $1,644,286, which is below the budgeted amount of $1,650,000.
