KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH
RESOLUTION NO. FY2023-10
A RESOLUTION OF KODIAK ISLAND BOURGH, ALASKA, AUTHORIZING THE BOROUGH
MANAGER TO APPLY TO THE STATE OF ALASKA, DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL
CONSERVATION (ADEC) FOR THE AMENDMENT OF THE EXISTING ALASKA CLEAN
WATER FUND LOAN NUMBER 505041 (LANDFILL DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION, PHASE
III - LEACHATE TREATMENT FACILITY) FOR THE LEACHATE TREATMENT PLANT
UPGRADE AND THE STAGE 3 LANDFILL COVER PROJECTS
WHEREAS, the Leachate Treatment Plant Upgrade and Landfill Closure project would include
the following work:
Leachate Treatment Plant Pretreatment Upgrade:
A metal building will be added to the existing facility to house the new pretreatment
equipment. This equipment includes an aeration tank along with a lamella plate clarifier.
Laboratory testing and geochemical modeling have shown that the calcium carbonate
scaling can be reduced by inducing precipitation to occur before the treatment process
through aeration of the leachate in an aeration tank.
Stage 3 Closure
An interim cover and final cover section will be installed on the current top deck and side
portion of the existing landfill. By converting the rain to stormwater this will lessen the
amount of the leachate that needs to be treated. This should also help with the leachate
lagoon overflow issues seen during heavy rain events.
WHEREAS, the Kodiak Island Borough, seeks to obtain the necessary financial assistance for
the project; and
WHEREAS, the State of Alaska, Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC) is able to
offer funding through the Alaska Clean Water Fund; and
WHEREAS, the project currently is included on an Alaska Clean Water Fund project priority list
for the current fiscal year; and
WHEREAS, the loan of up to 4.5 Million would be repaid over no more than 30 year term, with
a finance rate calculated pursuant to 18 AAC 76.080 (for a Clean Water loan) or 18 AAC 76.255
(for a Drinking Water loan); and
