Recommended Improvements Sample Clauses

The Recommended Improvements clause outlines a process for one party to suggest enhancements or modifications to a product, service, or process covered by the agreement. Typically, it specifies how recommendations should be submitted, reviewed, and potentially implemented, and may address whether the recommending party receives any recognition or compensation. This clause helps ensure that valuable suggestions for improvement are formally considered, fostering ongoing quality enhancement and clarifying the parties' roles in the innovation process.
Recommended Improvements. The City will reclassify North Hayden Island Drive as a truck/freight corridor into the site, and work with the Port to propose the corresponding Metro RTP amendments. The City will prepare and submit amendments to the RTP, removing the West Hayden Island bridge project from the RTP, and adding a new project to reconstruct North Hayden Island Drive consistent with its proposed freight classification, from BNSF Railroad to Main Street, including sidewalks, required stormwater improvements, and buffering treatments abutting residential property (Project 1, Map A). Details of the recommended improvements are described in column II. North Hayden Island Drive (NHID)is put on the RTP for a full reconstruction project. (Project 1, Map A) and NHID is reclassified. This includes: Roadbed/curb-to-curb - Rebuild N Hayden Island Drive roadbed to meet City street design standard and 20-year life cycle to accommodate increased heavy truck traffic based on the following conceptual cross-section dimensions: Two 12-foot travel lanes. One 12-foot center left turn lane that allows landscape median treatments were turn lanes are not provided. Two 6-foot bicycle lanes. Est. roadbed costs (less R/W): $11.5 million Include buffer treatments to mitigate impacts on the surrounding residents and commercial business operations, based on the following conceptual cross section dimensions: South side: 8 foot sidewalk and 6-foot furnishing zone. North side: 8-foot swale and 12-foot multi-use path. Est. buffer costs (less R/W): $9 million Est. range of additional R/W cost: $0.8 - $3.7 million (Specific design may vary as right-of-way cost and availability are evaluated) Range of Total Estimated Mitigation Costs (including buffer treatment): $21.3 - $24.2 million City and the Port agrees to split the local match estimated to be up to $5 million each Stage 1: If plan A has not been completed, and First Development Permit is submitted Threshold: First Port Development permit issued. Port agrees to extension of NHID on to site for X feet (including sewer, water extensions, R/W purchase) – following the roadway standards noted in stage 1 above (Project 2, Map A) Port agrees to fund up to $2 million for an enhanced maintenance within existing roadbed - 6-inch grind and inlay for construction impacts: (Project 3, Map A) Approx 5-8 years service life (confirm) This will include some pedestrian safety improvements (locations tbd) Potential cost savings with other infrastructure improvements (wate...

Recommended Improvements. ‌ The ultimate expansion strategy of the main WWTP includes modifying and expanding the existing plant to a 21.1-mgd ADWF MBR facility capable of producing Title 22 effluent for unrestricted irrigation use. The projected PWWF for the WWTP is 49.1 mgd and would require several hydraulic modifications in addition to modifications required for increased treatment capacity. General unit process modifications are presented in this section. The existing headworks facility would be modified for both screening and fat, oil, and grease removal. An additional mechanical screen would be required for the future peak flows while maintaining one redundant unit. In addition, fine screens with openings no greater than 2 mm would be required. An alternative location for fine screening could be after primary clarification. The secondary treatment system would be modified from a conventional activated sludge system to an MBR system in stages. The existing process train would be employed for ADWF up to 16 mgd, and those improvements would be retained for service for as long as they remain reliable. The proposed MBR improvements would be added to the system in subsequent expansion phases or at such time that either more restrictive discharge requirements mandate a change in treatment process or when the useful life of the existing process train has ended. During the period when two treatment trains are present (existing activated sludge and membranes), the effluent from each would be comingled prior to discharge; MBR effluent, which would be of better quality, could preferentially be diverted to either reuse or direct discharge, depending on the more stringent requirements for either use that are then in existence. The existing digester complex would be expanded to provide additional stabilization volume to maintain current solids disposal practices. Because the regulatory and public perception regarding land application of biosolids is anticipated to result in changes for obtaining a Class A biosolids product, it is recommended that the City investigate other RDD/110670009 (CLR4681.DOCX) 4-13 WBG030811023650RDD

Recommended Improvements. ‌ 4.5.1 Water Reclamation Facility for ▇▇▇▇▇ Hills‌ An MBR process would be the recommended plant process for the WRF to serve the ▇▇▇▇▇ Hills development, should the two-plant approach be selected. MBR systems are a proven technology with a comparatively smaller footprint and are capable of providing high- quality effluent for water reclamation. In addition, MBR systems can be modular and constructed to complement the development growth. Although secondary clarifiers and filters are not required for an MBR facility, auxiliary facilities are required that may not be required for other treatment technologies (for example, permeate pumps and backwash systems). While natural treatment was investigated as a treatment option, it was determined that a conventional filtration system would be required after the natural treatment system to achieve turbidity standards associated with Title 22 requirements for unrestricted reuse. In addition, the natural treatment system investigated herein includes an auxiliary oxygen injection system to enhance nitrification during the colder winter months. A headworks facility that includes both screening and grit removal is recommended for the WRF. An influent screening system that is more robust than a conventional screening system will be required to protect the membranes. The proposed system includes a dual screening system comprising both coarse screens with openings between 0.5 and 0.75 inch and fine screens with openings between 1 and 2 mm. The purpose of the coarse screens is to remove large debris that could damage or immediately blind the openings of the fine screens. Vortex grit removal would be located between the two screens with associated grit pump and classifying equipment. WBG030811023650RDD
