Project Constraints

Competition Rules: 
During the process of the project, Clearwater Jacks Engineering (CJE) must follow all the competition's rules and requirements. 

Given Alternative: 
When determining the design for the 91st Ave WWTP's AWPF, parcels owned by the City of Phoenix must be chosen for the best fit for the AWPF. When choosing these alternatives, the lift station, pump design, and facility need to be considered. While choosing these alternatives, three alternatives for the treatment train for the AWPF will be chosen as well. These alternatives must be considered if the treatment train can follow Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) and Maricopa County Environmental Services Department (MCESD) laws for potable water. The design will have to abide by the National Primary Drinking Water Regulation (NPDWR), Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), and Arizona’s Water Reuse Guideline or Regulation for Direct Potable Water Reuse, all under the guidance of the EPA. Under the jurisdiction of the ADEQ, the plant must abide by the Arizona Administrative Code Title 18. Furthermore, the standards of the MCESD will abide by the American Water Works Association (AWWA) C653-03 and the ADEQ bulletin number eight. 

Tight Schedule: 
The final document for the AZWater SDC is due in April 2026. This means that the team will have to have a finalized document done before April 2026, which is a sooner deadline than many other projects.
