SECTION 5. NORTH BASIN PROJECTS
5.4.10 NFW-C-0003 (Choctaw Storage Pump Station)
Project Description
This project has been deleted and combined with NFW-C-0002 (Choctaw Storage, PS 52A, PS
51A, PS 51AA, and Forcemains) from the October 2008 PDP and the combined project has
been designated as the NFW-C-0002 (Choctaw Storage and Pump Station Facility) and is
described in Section 5.4.9.
5.4.11 NFW-C-0004 (Hooper Storage Facility)
Project Description
Purpose of the Project/Background Information
The NFW-C-0004 (Hooper Storage Facility) project involves the design and construction of a
10-MG storage facility (Hooper Storage Facility) in northwest Baton Rouge Parish as well as
the replacement of BPS 897 with a wet well pump station. The purpose of this facility is to
detain peak wet weather flows during a storm event, and release them back into the collection
system when demand is lower.
Construction of the storage facility will eliminate the need for approximately 13,200 feet of
pipe replacement, reduce the overall pipe diameter for the remaining sewer projects, and
eliminate the need to increase the capacity of the North WWTP.
Location
The proposed location of the storage facility is near the northwest corner of the intersection
of Hooper Drive (Highway 408) and Mickens Road and is shown in Figure 5-18.
Scope
The project scope includes the design and construction of the storage facility and associated
pumping systems to transfer flows in and out of the facility. A new PS 897 will be built on
the same site as the storage facility to transfer flows in and out of the facility. Once the
storage facility and pump station are operational, BPS 897 will be abandoned.
Total Construction Bid Amount is $19,100,000.
Scheduled Design Appropriation Year was 2009.
Scheduled Construction Appropriation Year was 2010.
Design is On-Going.
