Project Name: Pump Stations Improvement: Niskey Lake 1 & 2, Rivermeade, and Highlands 

The City operates and maintains unmanned remote pumping stations that convey sewage flows to the Water Reclamation Centers in areas not accessible by gravity sewers.  The Department remotely monitors the pump stations seven days a week.  These pump stations have safety components and telemetry equipment that must operate continuously to ensure that there will be no loss of power resulting in unsafe working conditions or sewage overflows.  During inclement weather the power source to the pumping stations may be interrupted and require immediate attention from operators that must have emergency generators delivered to the site. 
 
The scope of this project includes: 

•   Installing permanent generators to ensure reliable power source 
•   Replacing gas alarm system 
•   Replacing force main pressure sensor and transmitter 
•   Replacing pump control panel and input/output (I/O) panels 

 
Justification: 

•   Improves pump station system reliability and efficiency 
•   Improves operational capability during extreme weather 
•   Replaces outdated and obsolete equipment 
•   Meets code requirements and improves safety for operating staff
