Update for Nut Island Headworks Odor Control and HVAC Improvements Project (Contract 7548)

Exterior view of Odor Control roof and site

About this Project:

The Nut Island Headworks Odor Control and HVAC Systems Improvements project involves an extensive rehabilitation of the facility that will ensure that Nut Island continues to work as designed.  Odor Control facility access, fuel tank replacement and other appurtenances will be rehabilitated.  This project will take approximately 36 months to complete.  Walsh Construction will be performing this work in phases Monday through Friday between the hours of 7AM-3PM.
The first phase of work will begin on Tuesday, April 21, 2020.  The work involves the installation of erosion controls (silt fencing and straw waddles), catch basin inlet protection, tree protection, temporary chain link fence and concrete barriers delineating work zones.  The initial work will be followed by establishing a temporary construction laydown area.  Once these activities are complete, the next phase of work will begin in May at the Nut Island facility.

Public Access Plan

Public Access paths will remain open during construction.  Please obey all posted signage on site.
