Estimated Completion Date

July 2011

Project Details

Construct a new larger and deeper liftstation at Longwood Wastewater Treatment Plant sized to handle current and futureplant flows, replace the sand filters, complete centrifuge rehabilitation, and complete clarifier modifications.

Project Justification

The current plant liftstation is undersized and results in reduced effective capacity for the treatment plant. Existing pumps are adequate to handle flows from a larger liftstation, so there will be no increase in operating costs. The existing sand filters are over 20 years old and are in extremedis repair, with metal failures resulting in poor effluent turbidity and loss of sand. We plan to investigate alternative technologies to sand filters, including disc filters. The centrifuge and clarifier work relates to normal equipment life.
