Project Overview

Work on this project includes a series of improvements to Palm Beach County’s aging 17.4-mgd water treatment plant serving more than 120,000 customers.

Major upgrades include the installation of a 5-mgd pre-stressed ground storage tank, aeration and mixing systems for the ground storage tanks, and a 15-mgd lime softening water treatment unit. Construction also includes a new surficial aquifer supply well and rehabilitation of the chemical storage and delivery systems, exterior stairs and elevated walkways, electrical instrumentation, and piping, valves, and pumps.

Extensive demolition and site work were required to support the water treatment plant improvements.
