Inside the main electrical and O&M buildings, crews are installing HVAC ductwork and applying ceiling coatings. At the headworks, final connections are being made to the 42-inch influent line.

The AquaDisk filters have arrived on-site, these will polish the effluent after biological treatment and prepare it for final disinfection. We also get a rare look inside the sludge holding tank, which will never look this spotless again.

This week, visible progress continues across the site. The sodium hypochlorite (liquid bleach) holding tanks have arrived, and final work is underway on the sludge buffer and holding tanks, including electrical, mechanical, and stair/guardrail installations.

This week, we’re seeing exciting developments at the operation and maintenance building, where veneer blockwork on the office side is nearly finished. Interior framing and rough-in work are also wrapping up.

This week, construction continues to move forward with visible progress on several areas of the site. Work is advancing on the sludge holding tank, the exterior of the Nereda basin, and the framing of the headworks deck. 

This week, construction efforts have focused on structural and utility enhancements across the site. At the headworks structure, crews are nearing completion of the final grit chamber wall pours, bringing this area closer to its finished form.

This week, the O&M building reached a major visual milestone with the installation of colored veneer block, giving the exterior a cohesive and durable finish that matches the maintenance bay walls.

This week we can see some new progress inside the O&M building, as crews are working to frame out the walls, HVAC, and plumbing of the second floor offices and control room.

Notable developments are underway on the Main Electrical Building, which will house the plant’s high-voltage switchgear and motor drives, along with a dedicated generator room for the relocated 3MW generator from the IWRF.

This week, the pace hasn’t slowed. Aerial shots reveal the evolving landscape around the Main Electrical and Blower Buildings, where crews are putting the final touches on masonry walls—setting the stage for the upcoming roof and slab work.

This week, crews are tackling multiple tasks at once. The O&M building is being prepped for its concrete roof pour, while masonry walls are being waterproofed in anticipation of the colored veneer block installation.

This week, the second floor of the Operations & Maintenance building is seeing major developments. On the maintenance side, roof bar joists are being placed, providing the framework for the next phase of construction.

This week, major developments are underway at the headworks as crews frame the footers and slab, preparing for foundation concrete pours next week.

 This week, exciting developments are taking shape. At the Nereda basins, crews are making significant progress on the pipe support structure, a crucial step in delivering process air and electronic control to each reactor.

The main electrical and blower buildings have reached an important phase with the completion of stem wall and column pours.

This week, the main electrical building is seeing substantial progress with the footers being finalized to prepare for the installation of critical electrical infrastructure.

This week, the chlorine contact chamber construction is on track, with final wall pours scheduled by month-end. Inside the O&M building, substantial progress continues with interior framing and plumbing moving forward on the first floor.

Last week, on the final Wastewater Wednesday of 2024, we reflected on the significant progress of the FPUA sewer treatment plant on Energy Lane. Despite weather challenges and minor delays, construction is on schedule and within budget, with 50% of the work completed and most structures finished.

On the first day of 2025, a Wastewater Wednesday, we are full of gratitude and joy for the progress and updates that the last year has brought for the new FPUA sewer treatment plant being built on Energy Lane.

This week, significant progress can be seen across several key areas of the project. Masonry crews are making strides on the Operations and Maintenance building, with work advancing rapidly on the maintenance bays.
