Document Description
In order to meet the water quality requirements, customer demands, and reduce the use of groundwater, the City proposes to install a new 6 MG water storage tank to provide a total of 7.5 MG of storage capacity at the NESWTF. The new 6 Mg tank will be located on the south side of the NESWTF, where the overflow spill pond is currently located. The circular tank will be approx. 230 feet in diameter and be approx. 24 feet in height. The existing over flow/spill pond will be reconfigured to allow space for the new tank. The tank will be pre-stressed concrete structure that is buried approx. 20 feet below ground with only the top four feet exposed above ground level. Construction of the tank will require excavation to a depth of approx. 23 feet to install the foundation. Piping inlet and outlets will be installed on the bottom of the tank, requiring some limited excavations as deep as 30 feet to place these pipes.
The new tank will operate much like the existing tank, and will be configured in a similar manner. Filtered water will be fed to both tanks through a system of pipes and valves, and water from both tanks will be distributed to customers from the existing high service pump station. Hydraulic modeling will be conducted prior to construction to determine if the pumps need to be modified to accommodate the new tank. Valve and pump controls will be modified as required to accommodate the new tank.
