Analysis

The City of Grand Prairie landfill owns and operates a Type I landfill equipped with an active gas collection and control system that extracts the generated landfill gas from the landfill for combustion via flare system.  The original system was installed in 2000 and has been maintained and updated as necessary over the years.

 

At this time, replacement of the header, additional wells and flare skid updates are needed to improve the flow of gas to both the flare and to the gas-to-energy facility. 

 

This contract will provide for design, permit level drawings, permit modification through the TCEQ, construction documents, construction management and quality assurance.

 

Financial Consideration

Funding for the contract for the design of upgrades for the landfill gas collection and control system is available in the Solid Waste Capital Projects Fund (502792), WO #08804201-03 (Gas to Energy Construction).
