QUARTERLY NEWSLETTERS

Project Description - Contract No. CP4231C05 (Design Contract)

This project provides for the planning and design of modifications to the Broad Creek Waste Water Pumping Station (WWPS), new force main/gravity sewer/pressure sewer to the Piscataway Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP), and emergency storage at the Piscataway WWTP. This project is needed to eliminate/reduce the occurrence of sanitary sewer overflows at the Broad Creek WWPS during wet weather events in the area.

The design consists of an alignment study and design for the new force main/gravity sewer/pressure sewer from the Broad Creek (WWPS), to the Piscataway WWTP. In addition, new headworks and storage at the Piscataway WWTP and modifications to the Broad Creek WWPS are being designed to increase the overall capacity of the system. This project also includes community outreach and coordination with regulatory agencies for permitting.

The consultants selected to design this project are Hatch Mott MacDonald and Gannett Fleming, participating in a Joint Venture.
