Renovation of a water / sewer project in Jupiter, Florida. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a water / sewer project.

Historically, the WTP has relied on chlorine gas for disinfection of drinking water. However, conversion from chlorine (CL) gas to liquid chlorine has become more desirable for reasons such as safety, product availability, operational control, cost savings, and replacement of aging assets. Strict regulations for shipping, handling, and storage of chlorine gas, combined with limited CL gas manufacturers and suppliers have resulted in significant cost increases and availability concerns. Liquid CL is a less expensive, more readily available, and much safer alternative to meet disinfection requirements. With the WTP's existing CL gas equipment approaching 25 years, the conversion would be timely. The existing CL building will house five chemical storage tanks and chemical metering equipment to feed liquid CL to required process areas As of April 17, 2028, this project is included in the Town of Jupiter's Fiscal Year 2024-2028 CIP and funding is allotted for construction in FY 2028. *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. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
