Jackson Street Pump Station Upgrade
Hurlock, Maryland
This project included
detailed facilities planning effort to study all the aspects for the
upgrade of the Jackson Street pump station. The facilities plan
amendment identified the need for the upgrade to a flow rate of 3.6 MGD
rather than the replacement of the existing facility. The design
included the installation of two temporary submersible bypass pumps in
the existing chemical mix tanks while the station was being
reconditioned. Bypass pumping continued for six months with independent
controls and power to accommodate the installation of three new vertical
turbine pumps, piping and motor controls in the existing pump station.
Project design also included emergency power
generation and replacement of all associated electrical systems. New
surge suppression was designed along the force main and in the pump
station, as well as a water seal system for the mechanical seals of the
vertical turbine pumps.
