Plant 40 Booster Station Improvements
East Valley Water District | 2015
EVWD's Plant 40 originally consisted of a groundwater production well and two ion exchange treatment units. Being identified as a key facility to convey water from the Intermediate Zone to the Upper Zone, EVWD elected to construct a new booster station at the site. The new station was equipped with four 1,000 gallons per minute vertical turbine pumps (three duty and one standby) with ancillary yard piping and connections to the two pressure zones. The station was equipped with equipment to power and control the four pumps and a canopy structure to protect the pumps from the elements.
A Construction Manager was provided to oversee the Contractor's daily activities. The Construction Manager was involved in the commissioning of the project which included pump performance testing, pump and motor vibration testing, and electrical and instrument functionality testing.
