Water
Treatment Projects
Lost
Creek Water Transmission Pipeline and Treatment Plant
Location: Park City, Utah
Contact: Doug Evans
Phone: (435) 940-1916
Description: AQUA Engineering, Inc. was hired by Mountain Regional Water
Special Service District in 2002 to look at routes to bring over the water
from the Weber River and to design a 6 million gallon a day water treatment
facility. The path up the Lost Creek Canyon was chosen for the pipeline,
thus giving the project its name, and Signal Hill in the Promontory Ranches
development was chosen as the site for the treatment plant. The construction
was started in late fall of 2003, and the water plant received its approval
from the State Drinking Water staff in February of 2005, marking the end
of a $13 million dollar, design-build project with AQUA Engineering, of
Bountiful, Utah and Ames Construction, of Salt Lake, Utah. The project
consists of the first riverbank, groundwater collection system in Utah.
It also has a large booster pump station with six, 350 horsepower pumps,
one 200 horsepower pump, and 5.2 miles of a combination of 24 inch diameter
mortar lined and coated-welded steel, ductile iron, and high density polyethylene
pipe. There is a 1,000 feet rise in elevation along the 24 inch pipe,
which passes through some sensitive environmental areas, has two highway
crossings and one river crossing. The beautiful terminal reservoir by
the treatment plant is rock lined along the banks and holds 40 acre feet
of water. The treatment plant is one of the first micro-filtration membrane
plants in the State of Utah, treating 3 million gallons a day, and easily
expandable to 6 million gallons a day. The river bank infiltration system
develops 1,480 acre-feet of water, and a future simple expansion to Rockport
Reservoir brings the total developed water source to 6,600 acre feet.
Keetley
Water Treatment Plant
Location: Park City, Utah
Contact: Kerry Gee
Phone: (435) 649-8011
This is a 15 mgd facility which AQUA was teamed with EWP (now Stantech)
in the design and construction of the water treatment plant. This plant
was constructed by Ames Construction in 2000-2001. AQUA was responsible
for the Infilco Degramont Densadeg system to remove heavy metals prior
to sand filtration. The treatment system consisted of entrance works,
flocculation chambers, lime slaking and milk of lime addition, high rate,
plate settling clarifiers, sludge removal and storage, sludge dewatering
with plate and frame press, CO2 addition for pH adjustment, traveling
bridge filters, on-site chlorine generation for disinfection, and a complete
control and SCADA system. All this is enclosed a building found at the
Keetley mine portal at the northwest side of Jordanelle Reservoir.
Bountiful
City Mueller Park Plant
Location: Bountiful, Utah
Contact: Dave Wilding
Phone: (801) 298-6180
In 2000, AQUA was asked to come in a upgrade the existing 2 mgd Trident-Micro
Floc plant. This included improvements to the feed pipe system, the clarifiers,
the chemical addition system, the backwash system, and the instrumentation
and control system was completely upgraded by SKM (AQUA subsidiary).
Snowbird
Water Treatment Plant

Contact: Doug Evans, Operator (former Mayor)
Phone: (435) 940-1916
Master planned a 0.25 mgd Zenon Zeeweed hollow fiber membrane bioreactor
(MBR) facility, modeled and mapped the collection system, and cleaned
and TV's the system. The total cost of constructed project was $1.9 million.
On the treatment side, project included main pump station, headworks,
anoxic basin, aeration membrane tanks, UV disinfection, full laboratory,
electrical controls and sludge dewatering. Replaced an aerated lagoon
system. Received the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC)
grand award.
Other
Water Projects
AQUA
has been involved in several water projects that include booster pumping,
well development, water storage, water distribution, modeling and GIS
of water systems, and systems operations. Some of the clients that AQUA
has worked for and continues to work with are:
West
Wendover Water Resource Development and Delivery Project
Location: Elko County, Nevada
Contact: Glenn Wadsworth - Chair/Chris Melville - Administrator
Client Name: Administrative Authority/City of West Wendover, Nevada
Phone: (775) 664-3081
AQUA Engineering has just completed this water resource development project
for the Wendover community on the Utah - Nevada border. Funding was provided
by the USDA and Aqua Engineering was also successful in obtaining $2 million
in grants from the state of Nevada. The total project cost was approximately
$19.9 million. The project included replacement of 28 miles of 12-inch
and 10-inch steel transmission pipeline with 24-inch and 20-inch ductile
iron and PVC transmission pipeline; drilling and equipping a fifth groundwater
well capable of producing 750 GPM; rehabilitation and redevelopment of
Johnson Spring and reconstruction of the Johnson Spring booster pumping
station; rehabilitation of a 1.5 MG concrete lined reservoir which was
retrofitted with an aluminum Geotruss cover. Because the majority of the
project is located on federal lands, Aqua Engineering worked closely with
the BLM and supervised permitting activities including cultural resource
surveys and full-time archeological observation for portions of the line
that paralleled the Hasting's Cutoff of the Oregon Trail.
Hyrum
City
Location: Hyrum, Utah
Contact: Brent Jensen
Phone: (435) 245-6033
Water system analysis, line extensions, master planning. Currently serve
as City Engineer.
Grantsville
City Culinary Water and Wastewater Systems Master
Location: Grantsville, Utah
Contact: Wendy Palmer, City Clerk
Phone: (435) 884-3411
This project involved culinary water and wastewater systems master planning
efforts for this rapidly growing Tooele County community which recently
added a Wal-Mart Distribution Center to its tax base. Both utilities were
evaluated using a 20-year planning window coupled with projected growth
based on development trends and land use policies. Grantsville City continues
to expand in several directions and thus its infrastructure needs become
increasingly challenging. Grantsville's current population is 6800 but
the number of residents is sure to double and likely to triple within
the next 20 years as the amount of land available for urbanization along
the Wasatch Front dwindles and the large tracts of undeveloped land in
the Tooele Valley draw ever-increasing attention.
