Cleanwater Center (Recycle Yard and Carl Road Improvements Package)

Status: In Design

Expected Bid Date: TBD

Estimated Construction Cost: $2-3M

Project Goal: The purpose of this package is to provide additional parking and better lighting for WPCP employees and visitors, and to secure the facility with a fence and electronic gate at the entrance.

Project/Construction information:

Recycle Yard is located on the south side of Carl Road and adjacent to Recycle Hill, one of the City’s closed landfills. The major project elements for the Recycle Yard and Carl Road Improvements project include:

  • Recycle Yard Improvements – Residual municipal waste materials are present beneath the Recycle Yard (placed during landfilling operations at Recycle Hill). Because of the presence of the residual waste materials, paving of Recycle Yard must comply with the requirements to be defined by the Local Enforcement Agency (LEA) and the Regional Water Quality Control Board (Water Board), who share regulatory oversight responsibility for Recycle Hill. The paving and striping of the Recycle Yard will allow use of the Recycle Yard as a parking lot for City employees and visitors to the WPCP.

  • Carl Road Improvements – The improvements to Carl Road will include installation of security fencing and an electronic security gate at the entrance to the WPCP facility. Additionally, lighting will be installed at the Recycle Yard and along Carl Road.

Detailed design is currently underway. Development of the Bid Document submittal is scheduled for completion in 2021.
