In 2019 the Engineering and Construction Department negotiated a Professional Consultant Agreement with HDR Engineering, Inc. to do bench-scale evaluation of treatment technologies capable of reducing impacts of MIB and geosmin on treated water taste and odor. The negotiated amount was $333,405.00.
