This contract is to provide for on site collection and off site lab analysis of wastewater and sludge samples. All sampling and analysis must be completed in accordance with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) rules and regulations regarding lab analysis of wastewater samples. The physical plant is located at the VANJ Healthcare System 151 Knollcroft Road Bldg.141 Lyons, NJ 07939. The facility at Lyons consists of an extended aeration, activated sludge wastewater treatment plant with a variable design capacity of 200,000 to 1,000,000 gallons per day (GPD), serving a medical center population of approximately 1,800 patient, staff and visitors. The present actual flow is 80,000 (GPD). The plant process flows through and consists of two aeration tanks, two Clarifiers, two sand filters, a Copper removal system and an outflow where final disinfection is done by ultraviolet lights (UV) before discharge to a receiving stream. In addition to the plant pumps and blower equipment, backup power is supported by a 300kw emergency generator.
