Project Overview

VanCon built a new wastewater reclamation facility with an operations building, a maintenance building, an electrical building, an influent pump station with mechanical and bypass bar racks, a headworks building with washer/compactor, grit classifier, and grit chambers, an anaerobic pre-selector with RAS pumps, a three-ring Orbal ditch, clarifiers, a process building with UV open channel disinfection, screw press, and alum feed systems, WAS pumps, a solids storage tank, odor control, and combustible gas monitoring. The water table onsite was 3 feet deep — vaults 15 to 20 feet deep required continual dewatering throughout the project.
