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

UPDATE : This project includes the replacement of two (2) vertical turbine water pumps and motors serving the West-High Service Area (Wood Hill). Additionally, this project would include the replacement of all MCCs and control panels as part of an effort to modernize the existing systems and avoid catastrophic failure. It is worth noting that most of the equipment is obsolete and proves difficult to maintain and repair. Lastly, as part of this project, Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) would be installed for the Bancroft Pumps, as a way to adjust flow to the Bancroft system in order to better meet the variable system demand. The design would include a structural analysis of the existing space, in order to ensure that the structure can support the new equipment and VSDs. This request consolidates two former requests (DPW-23-25 and DPW-27-25) in order to achieve economies of scale, due in part to the fact that both projects include equipment in the same location and of the same vintage. Savings are expected as a result of a single mobilization to the site, project sequencing, and maintenance of plant operation (MOPO) considerations.
