Perry Plant Expansion Set
On January 7, 1980 the
City of Perry broke
ground on an expansion
of the municipal
wastewater treatment
facility located on Frank
Satterfield Road. This
expansion is the
culmination of three
years of engineering
study and design by the
City's consulting
engineers, Tribble and
Richardson, Inc., under
provisions of Public Law
92-500, and is financed in
part by a grant from the
U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency.
The existing
wastewater plant is a
trickling filter type
facility which was
completed in 1966 and has
a design capacity of 1.0
million gallons per day.

flow to the plant exceeds
1.5 million gallons per
day.
The addition to the
facility will triple the
treatment capacity to a
total of 3.0 million gallons
per day and should
provide for the City's
sewage treatment needs
through the year 2000.
Under the new system,
the wastewater flowing to
the plant will be split with
one-third treated in the
existing plant and two
thirds treated in the new
addition. The new plant
will consist of an aeration
basin with four surface
aerators which will treat
the wastewater by the
addition of oxygen to
promote the growth of
bacteria that feed on the
organic material present
in the water. Following
aeration the wastewater
enters settling basins to
remove all solids and the
clear water is chlorinated
for further disinfection
before it is discharged to
Big Indian Creek. The
water leaving the plant
should have 95 percent of
its original organic
content removed by the
treatment process.
The low bid on the
project was submitted by
Arthur Pew Construction
Company, Inc. of
Chamblee, Georgia who
was awarded a contract
in the amount of
$1,714,452.00, of which
$669,978.00 will be a grant
from EPA. The
remaining funds are
provided through the sale
of water and sewer
revenue bonds which will
be repaid by revenues
generated by the
