Pumping Station Projects

Orr Street Booster Pumping StationOrr Street Booster Pumping Station:  
 
The Orr Street Booster Pumping Station was constructed to provide adequate flow and pressure for the Five Corners Water Main Project and the Five Spokes Water Main Project within the Town of Busti.  The pumping station was also designed to supply potential future service areas within the Town of Busti Water District #7. The pumping station was built on the City of Jamestown’s property in Bergman Park, which required obtaining approval and meeting the requirements of the City’s Park Department.   
 
The pump station building contains three rooms, a chlorine injection room, a standby power generator room, and a pump room.  In the pump room there are four variable speed constant pressure pumps; a jockey pump, two service pumps, and a fire flow pump.  The jockey pump can supply between 6 and 39 gallons per minute and will be used to supply low flow demands.   Each service pump can supply between 30 and 175 gallons per minute at the desired discharge pressure.   The fire flow pump was design to meet ISO requirement for fire flow.  The piping within the booster station is designed so that the jockey pump can be easily swapped with another service pump in the future as water demand increases.  
 
Howard Avenue Booster Pumping Station:
 
The Howard Avenue Booster Pumping Station was designed to increase pressure to residential water users in the vicinity Howard Avenue (Town of Ellicott) who were experiencing low pressure.  The pump station consists of four variable speed constant pressure pumps; a jockey pump and three service pumps.  The jockey pump supplies the low to average day demand with the service pumps supplying peak day to peak hour demand.  The service pumps also supply fire flow with all three pumps running.  It should be noted that the Howard Avenue Pump Station has been designed to supply water and provide fire protection to potential future expansion areas of the distribution system.  The future areas include; expansion/completion of the Royal Oaks Subdivision, extension of the water main southerly on Howard Avenue to Baker Street, installation of water main on Baker Street form Howard Avenue to Valerie Lane, and installation of water main on Valerie Lane.   In addition to the pump station the project consists of installing approximately 550 linear feet of eight-inch (8”) diameter ductile iron water main and two check valve manholes.    

Pumping StationWebster Road Pump Station:
 
Webster Road Pump Station was a rehabilitation project to upgrade the existing pumping station and control valves for the adjacent storage tank.   The existing pumps were changed out for a duplex constant pressure system with a design capacity of 3,200 gallons per minute.   A new altitude valve and motor operated butterfly valve were installed as well as communication equipment, so the tank and pumping station could be controlled at the municipality’s water treatment plant.  
 
Hunt/Shadyside Underground Booster Pumping Station:
 
The Hunt/Shadyside Underground Booster Pumping Station was installed as part of water distribution project.  The pumping station consists of a welded steel chamber with four constant pressure pumps and controls installed inside.   The project also included a standby power generator to maintain pump operations during primary power outages.
