Aeration system upgrades expected to achieve guaranteed utility cost reductions totaling 206,482 kWh per year; qualify for utility company incentives of approximately $55,000; maintenance and operational cost reductions estimated at $5,000 annually. Challenge Wishing to replace equipment at, or nearing, end of life expectancy and avoid imminent capital costs that would result if the aging equipment remained in service, the City of Lynnwood Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) sought a collaborative team to help address and prioritize items on its Capital Improvement Plan. Objectives for the upgrade project included reducing energy costs by using more e&cient equipment and improving processes, maximizing operational e&ciencies and lowering maintenance costs. Desired upgrades would
