Subject:

The Black River WWTP requests approval to enter into an agreement with Professional Engines Inc. to upgrade the facility’s existing gas engine throttle control system. The current pneumatic (air-controlled) system presents limitations in precision, reliability, and data tracking. The proposed upgrade will replace the air system with an electronic throttle control system that integrates with our SCADA computer system, allowing for more accurate control, improved reliability, and real-time monitoring capabilities. The original request, approved on July 23, 2025, was based on an estimate for the scope of work. Upon completion of the work, actual costs exceeded the original estimate. As a result, an increase to the purchase order in the amount of $1,813.46 is required to cover the full cost of work completed. The revised total project cost is $29,698.46. This project was planned and budgeted under the Facility Improvement portion of the budget, account #6130.P613.6310.6700.1500.
