Work Item 3. City Waste Water Treatment - EKO agreement of $165 per dry ton paid by City to EKO for biosolids.
Approximately 214 pounds per cubic yard. Waste Water: biosolids ratio of 4:1 = 7,500 cubic yards or 806 dry tons.
(Value of product for this project. No change to existing EKO/WWT agreement.)
Work Item 4. Negotiated cost to process WW material by EKO and return to City for park use. (P&R funds – IF, CinL,
TIF, GF maintenance supplies, sports fees, or other based on where product is used.)

* Estimates assume a 4:1 ratio of wood to biosolids is used to make compost.
* A 33% volume reduction from feedstocks to finished product is assumed for the composting process.
Projected Net benefit or value to City: Direct costs to City funds (KR credits, IF, CinL, PD, GF,
TIF, grants, other) = $132,000. Approximate value of compost and other materials received to
improve or develop parks = $517,500 (22,500 x $23/yard @ current city rate from EKO).

specifications included in Exhibit A:
Topdressing compost for existing turf
Standard Compost to be blended with soil to form Compost Manufactured Topsoil (CMT) as a bed for
initial plant establishment

product described in Item D at the following rates:
Topdressing compost for existing turf, $12/cubic yard.
