TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: David C. Patek, Director of Public Works ThcP
RE: Amendment for Environmental Engineering Services for Quarry Park Landfill
Methane Gas Monitoring and Gas System Maintenance
BACKGROUND
The Department of Public Works has utilized AECOM (former STS Consultants) for various
environmental engineering needs at the Quarry Park Landfill located on Knapp Street since
1979. The new active venting system has been operating at Quarry Park since spring of 2010.
AECOM continues to report no measurement of methane at the various monitoring points. It is
anticipated that the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources will require several years of
active collection of methane gas before considering a reduced operation or switching to passive
collection.
ANALYSIS
An agreement for environmental engineering services with AECOM was reported to the
Common Council in June of 2011. An amendment to this agreement is proposed, which will
cover the required investigations until the end of 2013.
FISCAL IMPACT
With this amendment, the cost of the agreement will be increased by $74,000 for a total value of
$148,000. The cost for these gas monitoring services will be allocated to the operating budget
(Account 100-0470/Garbage Collection & Disposal).
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the agreement amendment with AECOM.
