Clems Branch Pump Station, Gravity Sewer, and Force Main
With Charlotte¡¯s suburbs outgrowing existing infrastructure, the City needed a bigger pumping station to serve their expanded community¡¯s needs. Located on the North Carolina/South Carolina state line, the previous pumping station was undersized for current and future development and flows.
Our job? Owner¡¯s advisor services as well as planning, modeling, survey, design, permitting, easements, and construction administration for the replacement and relocation of the Clems Branch Pump Station. Starting with a preliminary engineering report, we explored a range of alternatives that considered lifecycle costs, expected useful lives of components, maintenance, public perception, and environmental impacts. The new station can pump 4 MGD (millions of gallons per day).
Finished in December 2021, the Clems Branch Pump Station, Gravity Sewer, and Force Main includes a wastewater grinder, a triplex submersible pumping station with 16-foot by 16-foot (4.9-metre by 4.9-metre) wet well, 6,000 feet (1.8 kilometres) of force main, an emergency bypass pumping connection, a magnetic flow meter, odor control, a pump control building, a spill detention basin, a gravity sewer extension, and a generator.
With this new pump station, Charlotte¡¯s infrastructure can support growing communities in these expanding suburbs for decades to come.?
