  Presentation:

  The City of Omaha’s Northeast Omaha High-Rate Treatment Basin (NEOHRTB) system is identified as one of the primary control measures remaining to be constructed to reduce wet weather overflows in the Missouri River Watershed (MRW), particularly from four (4) Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) Outfalls: CSO 105 Minne Lusa, CSO 106 North Interceptor, CSO 107 Grace Street, and CSO 108 Burt-Izard. Combined sewage passing through the HRTB will receive disinfection, solids settling, and dechlorination before being discharged to the Missouri River. Captured volume in the tank will be dewatered back into the collection system for subsequent conveyance and treatment at the Missouri River Water Resource Recovery Facility (MRWRRF). The HRTB will significantly reduce the volume of untreated CSOs, total suspended solids (TSS), and E. coli bacteria entering the Missouri River.

  The major components that will make up the Northeast Omaha High-Rate Treatment Basin  (NEOHRTB) system and their Construction Packages include:

  • Grace Street and North Interceptor Dry Weather Flow (DWF) Diversion Rehabilitation (Package 4)
  • 11th and Izard Active Control (IZAC) (Package 2)
  • 11th and Izard Grit and Screening Facility (IZ GSF) (Package 2)
  • North Downtown Conveyance Sewer (NDCS) (Package 1)
  • Grace Street Ditch Active Control (GDAC) (Package 3)
  • Northeast Omaha HRTB (NEOHRTB) (Package 4)

  Packages 1 and 2 are currently in bidding phase, with construction planned to start in December 2026.  Packages 3 and 4 are currently in Preliminary Design phase, which is expected to be completed in January 2027.   This presentation will provide an overview of the scope of work of the project and a general overview of the schedule of the remaining work through construction, and how these fit into the City of Omaha’s CSO Long-Term Control Plan.

  The Engineers Club of Omaha will be hosting our 12th annual golf tournament at Tiburon Golf Club, Omaha, NE. Proceeds from the event will go to the Engineers Club of Omaha scholarship program. Last year, the tournament raised $16,000 which allowed the club to increase scholarships awarded this spring!

  After selling out the last three years, we have decided to move to a larger course! Our goal this year is to register 45 teams and raise $20,000 to provide even more student scholarships in 2027. We couldn't do this without the generous support of our members and sponsors!

  The tournament is a 4 person "scramble" format. Entry fee includes - 18 hole green fee, cart rental, a meal, and 2 drink tickets. This event will be rain or shine. You can register online, in person at ECO meetings, or by mail. On the day of the event, registration begins at 10:30 a.m. with an 11:30 a.m. shotgun start.
