One of the city of Bryan’s three wastewater treatment plants is getting $6 million dollars of improvements. That’s after the city council at its last regular meeting awarded a contract for the Still Creek plant near Highway 21 and Harvey Mitchell Parkway. Public works director Jayson Barfknecht says the project changes the way waste is broken down from an anaerobic system to an aerobic system. Parts will be replaced at the grease plant, which serves 23 businesses that processes what Barfknecht says is collected in grease traps at restaurants and the waste in portable toilets. There will also be a replacement of what is called a bar screen, which protects the treatment system equipment by blocking rags, plastic, and other debris. The project, which is being paid from the city’s wastewater fund, not from taxes. The contract amount is about $300,000 dollars above the engineer’s estimate.
