Description Extend or add new belt conveyor form the end of the existing conveyor to the loading area over the truck bay. Project includes a truck hopper loader so staff can keep the presses in operation while bumping the truck. Justification The conveyor currently collects the biosolid from the belt filter press and take to to a shaftless screw auger that lift the biosolids up to discharge over the truck bay. It has been found that when we operate all three presses, the screw auger cannot keep up with the volume of biosolids delivered by the conveyor. By including the truck hopper loader, staff can keep the presses in operation while bumping the truck which make the belt filter presses operation more efficient.

Budget Impact/Other Current auger conveyor will not keep up with solids generated from more than two belt filter presses which limits out ability to dewater biosolids, and repairs takes at least one business day to make, which also limits our ability to dewater biosolids. The estimated impact on the operating budget is negligible.
