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

The City of Ogdensburg is seeking to enter into an engineering services contract with a qualified engineer/engineering firm ("QEP") to assist the City with the Wastewater Pump Station Rehabilitation project. The intended outcome of the project is the rehabilitation of the City's remaining wastewater pump stations known as the South Water Street Pump Station and the Heavy Industrial Park Pump Station, replacing critical pumping, electrical and communications equipment to increase reliability and efficiency and eliminate system outages. These pump stations collect wastewater from various portions of the City and convey liquid waste across the City, eventually discharging to the City's wastewater treatment plant for treatment. The South Water Street pump station was originally constructed in 1963 and consists of an above grade building, and 20f-ft deep pump dry-pit and wet-wells. This station's pumps and motors were replaced in 2016. Other critical equipment, including, controls, system communications, electrical as well as heating and ventilating and plumbing systems are well beyond their design life and require replacement. The Heavy Industrial Park Pump Station is an underground facility with submersible style pumps which have been sited to be replaced with an above grade, enclosed duplex pump station including controls, piping, power and power distribution. The proposed upgrades to these pump station will allow the pump stations to be monitored in real-time in parallel with the newly improved treatment facility, increasing reliability and efficiency for city operators.
