LEAP OF FAITH
Blissfield steps into uncharted water with new technology for wastewater project
A leap of faith is what Blissfield Village President Mike Gunter called the council’s decision to tentatively award the projected $1.5 million-plus water treatment plant sludge removal project to local company Greener Planet Solutions (GPS).
After council received four bids in August for the installation of a system that would remove the solids from the material sent from the water treatment facility to the wastewater treatment facility which came in more than $600,000 over the amount council had approved in the bond limit of $1,800,000, they were made aware of the possibility that a local company could complete the project using different technology, get the same end result and save the village of Blissfield approximately $1 million in the process.
