Overview
Horner & Shifrin completed the planning and design of a 2,000 gpm above grade duplex package booster station to replace two aging booster stations, fill the new Meadowbrook Storage Tank, and improve system pressures and fire flows. The pump station was designed on a residential lot with setback requirements resulting in tight site constraints and aesthetic exterior finish requirements to match the surrounding residential subdivision. Along with the booster pump station, the project included the design of approximately 350 feet of 12-inch water main, electrical services, telemetry, and an emergency generator. The emergency generator was a 125KW, 480V, 3 phase, 4 wire service fueled by diesel with an alternate bid as a natural gas fuel source. The project consisted of preparation of a Design Basis Memorandum, detailed plans and job specific provisions, bidding phase services, and construction phase services.
