Integrated Solid Waste Management Planning

Delaware County, New York. As part of Delaware County’s goal to continue to utilise their existing landfill site, they embarked on extensive efforts to re-define their solid waste management goals and objectives. In order to do so, the County assembled a team of planning specialists who focused on centralised and integrated solid waste management and watershed planning issues.

As part of the overall strategy to fully utilise the existing landfill property, GHD successfully identified a solution to continue development of solid waste disposal and processing facilities at the County’s Solid Waste Management Center that satisfied environmental, regulatory, and watershed management standards. These efforts included: solid waste management planning; development of aggressive recycling and landfill diversion strategies; integration of multiple town transfer stations; biosolids management; wetlands evaluation; landfill siting study and permitting; landfill design and construction services; and municipal solid waste (MSW) co-composting facility development.

Water Treatment Plant Improvements

GHD provided evaluation, design and construction services for comprehensive improvements to the City of Binghamton’s water filtration facilities and Water and Sewer Department offices.

The facility is a 20 million gallons a day (76Ml/d) conventional filtration plant, including: a raw water pumping station and intake on the Susquehanna River; chemical feed building housing alum, chlorine dioxide, sodium chlorite, powder-activated carbon, acid, caustic and polymer; four flocculation/sedimentation basins; and 10 rapid sand filters, chlorination, corrosion control and fluoridation.
