Anderson & Associates, Inc. conducted planning, design, bidding, construction administration,
and inspection services for this major sanitary sewer and pump station replacement project.
It includes 4000 feet of new 15-inch pipe, 900 feet of new 12-inch pipe, three road bores, and
a 1.1 million gallons per day (MGD) pump station. The purpose of this project was to provide
more capacity for the future growth of the community and to reduce inflow and infiltration (I&I)
into the overall system. The project involved parallel and in-place pipe installation while maintaining
existing sewer flows. It also involved a stormwater prevention plan and erosion control
measures due to the close proximity of a creek and creek crossings. A&A also provided survey,
mapping, and easement maps for the project area.
Completion Date:
2004
Upgrade in 2008
Total Project Cost:
$1,196,000
The pump station was designed to handle initial startup flows of 760 gpm until downstream
capacity improvements could be made. The pump station ultimate capacity was designed to
be 1,160 gpm and to reach it, the Town only needs to replace the impellars on the two pumps.
The Town is currently correcting the downstream capacity issues and upgrading the pump station
in the summer of 2008.
The Town applied for the Revolving Loan Fund through the Department of Environmental Quality
to receive financing for this project.
