WATER & RESOURCE RECOVERY
CENTER
Operations and Maintenance
Overview
Operations and maintenance of the W&RRC consists of maintaining equipment and
records necessary to collect, pump, treat and dispose of the liquid wastes discharged
into the sanitary sewer system as required by state and federal regulatory agencies at
the lowest possible cost while still effecting appropriate maintenance programs for plant
reliability; operating and maintaining 14 pumping stations located in every section of the
City of Dubuque; Repair and maintain all equipment required for the successful and
efficient operation of the W&RRC. Keep essential spare parts in stock and maintain
records for effective operation of the W&RRC.
Center Operations
For FY15 the Water & Resource Recovery
Center (W&RRC) treated an average 7.697
million gallons per day (M.G.D.) or 2809 million
gallons for the year.
000 00
7.697 million gallons is equal to about 1400 semi-tanker loads of sewer water per day.
The average BOD or Biochemical Oxygen Demand was 28588 pounds of Oxygen per
day of which 27872 pounds was removed or about 97.5 percent removal.

Dubuque Water & Resource Recovery Center
$HOWING RETURN ON INVESTMENT
When water and "other stuff" go down the
drain in Dubuque, it ends up at the Water &
Resource Recovery Center, which processes
an average of of
wastewater per day!
That's the
equivalent of
entering the facility's
treatment system!
Pure -oxygen biological treatment
is used to clean the wastewater.
Then, anaerobic digesters use
helpful bacteria to convert the
wastewater sludge into a
lue's Water & Resource Recovery
r (WRRC), the City's wastewater
lent plant located on Julien
lue Drive, underwent a nearly $70
i facility upgrade that was
feted in 2013. At the time, it was
rgest capital improvement project in
the city's history. The new treatment
system has now been in operation for two
fiscal years so it's a good time to review
how this major investment is performing.
FROM BURNING WASTE (THE OLD PROCESS) TO
PRODUCING A USEFUL PRODUCT
12 %z tons of soil amendment (fertilizer) are produced PER DAY
That's an average of eight semi loads per week of useful
material created instead of being burned!
Thanks to the ability to produce electricity and operational efficiencies,
the facility's electricity demand has dropped by 70-75%, from 1000
kilowatts down to just 250-300 kilowatts.
ANNUAL ELECTRICITY $23% ®QO Because of these efficiencies and the plant now producing its own electricity, annual electricity
COST SAVINGS! ® V costs have dropped from $579,205 in fiscal year (FY) 2011 to $342,230 in FY2015.
ANNUAL FUEL -OIL $300 000 Before the facility upgrade, the bio -solids produced at the plant were incinerated. In FY2011, the City
COST SAVINGS! spent $300,000 on fuel oil for this activity at the plant. Because anaerobic digestion is now used,
incineration is not needed so the City was able to reduce operating costs by $300,000 per year!
ANNUAL STAFFING$69 000 Operating efficiencies of the WRRC now allow the plant to operate with one less employee, resulting
COST SAVINGS! ® in a cost savings of $69,000 per year.
$606,000 TOTAL ANNUAL OPERATING COST SAVINGS
ENEGY
ODOTION
The WRRC converts waste into
electricity and heat.The anaerobic digestion
process produces methane gas. The gas
is captured, cleaned, and burned to
power turbines that generate electricity.
The heat produced through this process is
used to heat the complex, and the
electricity produced is used to power the
facility. Currently, the facility produces
enough electricity to power approximately
300 households per day, which is 70% of the
electricity needed to operate the facility.
The WRRC is expected to be electrically
self-sufficient within two years.
The WRRC is producing more
methane than can be used at the
facility. The City is researching
methods to use this excess methane
to increase revenues and further
reduce operating costs.
A NEW AND ABOVE-AVERAGE
FACILITY FOR AVERAGE RATES
The operation of the Water and Resource Recovery Center and the $70
million upgrade made to the facility are supported through the sanitary
sewer user fees paid by customers. Dubuque's average household rate for
the current fiscal year (2016) is $36.96 per month. Although Dubuque has
one of the newest wastewater treatment facilities in the state, the average
monthly rate for the other 11 cities in Iowa with populations over 50,000 is
$34.30, just seven percent below Dubuque's rate. Davenport, Des Moines,
and Ankeny have higher rates with Ankeny's rate at $57.65 per month, 56
percent higher than Dubuque's rate.
The Water & Resource Recovery Center currently
operates at 60-65% of its capacity, which means
there is considerable capacity to meet
residential and industrial growth.
SUPPORTING LOCAL BUSI N ESSES & JOBS
Thanks to the facility upgrades, the WRRC now has the capacity to process
high-strength waste, which means the facility provides a critical service to
a variety of local businesses that produce high-strength waste through
their production or manufacturing processes. Local companies like Hormel,
Rousselot, and Western Dubuque Biodiesel can now take their waste
products to the WRRC to be processed. In fact, Hormel's cost per gallon for
treatment/disposal was reduced by 60%. Hormel previously hauled their
high-strength waste over 90 miles to Madison, Wis., every day.
The WRRC's ability to process these materials saves those companies the
cost of having to transport that waste to other locations for disposal and
makes Dubuque a more attractive location for business expansion and new
businesses.
Processing high-strength waste also produces revenue for
the City. The WRRC expects to generate $240,000 in
revenue through this activity this year.
REDUCED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
A new ultra -violet light disinfection process means the facility is no
longer introducing one ton of toxic chlorine gas into the environment
every week.
The wastewater treatment process results in the removal of 10 tons
of oxygen demand per day, which previously went into the Mississippi
River. Fish and other aquatic life especially appreciate this benefit!
The upgrade of the facility is one component of a 2011 consent
decree settlement between the City and the U.S. Department of
Justice and the Environmental Protection Agency.
The new process improves our local air quality and supports
Dubuque's goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 50 percent by
2030. The elimination of the incineration process has eliminated
harmful particulate matter being released into the environment.
The new facility uses 400 kilowatts less per year, which results in
4,715 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent NOT going into our
atmosphere. That's the equivalent of removing 693 cars
from the road every year or the reduction of 300 homes'
energy use.

Using electricity produced at the W&RRC
saves over $200,000 in avoided costs.
Level Four agreement has been reached
with Alliant Energy which will allow full

CENTER
(0 ‘... Goal: Environmental Integrity
Outcome #1: Maintain proper operation and maintenance of pumping stations
throughout the City of Dubuque to ensure that untreated wastewater is not
discharged to streets, storm sewers orcreekslrivers where citizens may come in
contact with this potentially dangerous material.
All pumping stations are connected with the W&RRC computer system to allow for real-
time monitoring of the operations of the stations. Stations are visited by the W&RRC
Maintenance staff at least weekly to check for proper operations. Three of the major
stations are checked daily during the work week. Three of the pumping stations have
permanently installed standby power generators and the others can be powered by the
three portable generators owned by the W&RRC. This capability along with the standby
generators at the W&RRC assures the businesses and citizens of the City of Dubuque
that even during power outages the W&RRC will continue to operate and provide
essential services to our citizens.
All operations staff to have at least Grade II Certification
Training is provided to employees of the W&RRC to equip all employees with the
required skills to successfully operate a complex technical facility, to maintain and
upgrade certifications required by IDNR and keep abreast of current regulations and
technologies. A higher level of training for all operators will lead to a more efficient
operation of the W&RRC.
