A treatment system to remove perchlorate from Riverhead Water  
District's well 16, located off Edwards Avenue north or Route 25 in  
Calverton, will cost up to $522,500, according to a capital project  
budget set by the town board last night. The price tag includes the  
treatment "vessel" itself, construction of a building to house it and  
engineering design fees.

The board last night also awarded a $279,516 bid for the installation  
of the perchlorate removal treatment system to Calgon Carbon  
Corporation of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Calgon Carbon was the sole  
bidder in response to a bid request issued by the town Dec. 26.

The balance of the half-million dollar budget established by the  
board is expected to be spent on the costs of constructing a building  
to house the treatment system and up to $47,500 in engineering fees.  
The cost of the project will be paid out of the water district’s  
operating budget.
