Primary Details
This project provides for the complete rehabilitation of Bayshore Pumping Station at 3300 Bayshore Dr. The project will serve to replace the existing wet-dry type pumping station with a more efficient, reliable, and serviceable submersible pumping station. It includes demolition of above ground building structure, pumps and electrical equipment and installation of new submersible pumps, piping, valves, control panel and electrical upgrades. The new electrical and control equipment will be installed aboveground and will be designed to provide protection from flooding and wind damage associated with storm events. The project also includes the installation of a backup generator to maintain station operation in the event of a power loss.
The pumping station rehabilitation project will restore the station’s reliability by replacing the aging equipment and will include improvements to reduce vulnerability to extreme weather events. The station is a critical wastewater asset and failure of the station would result in a wastewater overflow that would impact the environment and pose a public health threat to the surrounding neighborhoods.
