Approval of and authorization to execute a purchase order for (2) Wager Odor Control Units for the Sewer Odor Control Improvements Phase III (Project Number 2654620)

Utilities Department staff, in coordination with specialty sewer engineering companies, has been reviewing the apparent odors that are present along County Line Road in North-East Broken Arrow as well as along the Wagoner County Trunk line nearest the Broken Arrow Events Park. Through extensive investigations of the odors emanating from the sewer line, City staff have been able to determine several factors that contribute to the ever-present reported odor issues: Aging Infrastructure, Sewer System Orientation, and Biological Occurrences from Residential & Businesses. City Staff have developed a multi-phased plan to address and mitigate these issues though capital improvements, biological modifications, and odor scrubbing technologies.
This project is a continuation of previously approved odor control studies through smaller Wager Odor Control units placed in service in 2024 as well as the Phase II implementation of a fully sized odor control assembly placed nearest Hwy 51 on County Line Roadway. Both of these pilot units have proven largely successful in reducing not only the Odors in the area but improved the water quality within the sewer lines that helps to reduce the formation of odorous gases in the lines.
Phase III of the odor control improvements is being implemented in (2) separate locations to help with regional odors emanating from sewer lines, Broken Arrow Events Park and County Line Road and the Creek Turnpike. City Staff is recommending the placement of two additional units sized to match the needs of each area and attached to both the County Line Trunk Sewer and one to the Wagoner County Trunk main. Tentative placements are planned for Fire Station #3 and the north end of the Events Park near Chal...
