TWWTP Improvements

Capital Improvements completed from 2002 through 2005 included: a new 48” outfall leading to the relocated influent pump station with fine screening, grit removal, electrical buildings, emergency generators, chemical building, and odor control. New flow testing and measurement equipment was installed, as well as a temporary effluent pump station, ultraviolet disinfection, post aeration, and discharge piping, and a new Biological Nutrient Removal (BNR) treatment process to meet the more restrictive permit limits mainly for Nitrogen and Phosphorus removal. A new state-of –the-art administration building was built on-site to house operations, laboratory, and maintenance personnel and equipment. This building is LEED certified and has won awards for design and environmental excellence.
