FY2023-27 A RESOLUTION OF THE ASSEMBLY OF THE KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH, 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 505071 FOR THE LEACHATE TREATMENT PLANT UPGRADE AND THE STAGE 3 LANDFILL CLOSURE PROJECTS IN THE AMOUNT OF $6,162,265 WHEREAS, the Leachate Treatment Plant Upgrade and Landfill Closure project would include the following work: Leachate Treatment Plant Pretreatment Upgrade: A metal building addition is being added to the existing facility to house the new pretreatment equipment. This equipment includes an aeration tank and a lamella plate clarifier. Preparatory laboratory testing and geochemical modeling have shown that the calcium carbonate scaling can be reduced by introducing aeration to promote the precipitating of solids and driving off volatile compounds prior to the existing treatment process. Stage 3 Closure: An interim cover and final cover section, leading to eventual closure is planned for installation on the current top deck and side portion of the original landfill section. By ensuring that the rainwater is segregated and managed as stormwater results in reducing the amount of leachate requiring treatment. This should assist in the prevention of the leachate lagoon overflow issues seen during previous 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 is for $6,162,265.00 with a total finance charge of 2.2775 percent to be repaid over no more than a 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 Drinking Water Loan); and WHEREAS, upon receiving the loan agreement document, Assembly authorization will be required by an ordinance to borrow the funds.
