Site work for a water / sewer project in New Britain, Connecticut. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

This well field was last redeveloped in 1982. The wells are an important source of supply and need to be Redesigned from the 1930's original design to operate in a more Productive manner. the work may require that some wells Re-drilled to restore the wellfields pumping capacity. Extensive pump testing will also be done to determine if the wells are under the influence of surface waters and to determine a design that maximizes production, flexibility and efficiency. The six pumps at the Whites Bridge Pond pumping station were installed in the 1920's. While still in operation they are inefficient, obsolete and cannot pump their rated capacity of three million gallons per day. The pumps need to be replaced with electricity efficient motors. Additionally the pond intake structure needs to be upgraded. As of December 1, 2023, this project is included in the City of New Britain's Fiscal Year 2024-2028 CIP and funding for construction is allocated for FY 2024, FY 2025, FY 2026, and FY 2027. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change.
