The challenge

Providing additional pumping capacity for the Verrado community required replacing and expanding existing infrastructure while maintaining continuous operation of the Zone 4 Booster Pump Station. The project also involved constructing a new building to house electrical control systems and an onsite chlorine generation system while coordinating installation of new pumps, mechanical systems and control equipment at the active facility.

Challenge met

Filanc delivered the Zone 5 Booster Pump Station for EPCOR using a design-build delivery method in partnership with Greeley and Hansen, who provided design services from preliminary design through final design. The project included construction of a new building to house electrical control systems and an onsite chlorine generation system, along with installation of four vertical turbine pumps and a hydropneumatic tank.

Filanc also completed a full electrical, instrumentation and control system replacement and performed site improvements that support long-term facility operations. Careful planning and detailed maintenance of plant operations procedures allowed construction activities to proceed while maintaining uninterrupted service. The completed booster pump station strengthens the community’s water infrastructure while ensuring reliable service for Verrado residents.
