O&M building’s roof sheet fully installed
NEW UPDATE: Wastewater Wednesdays!
Crews made great progress last week. The underground disc filter influent line saw new connections installed, masonry walls at the main electrical building continued rising, and the first steel columns were set at the headworks. At the Operations & Maintenance building, the second half of the roof was installed, and the maintenance bay staircase was placed.
This week, even more progress is taking shape. The O&M building’s roof sheeting is now fully installed, setting the stage for foam insulation and a concrete layer to be poured in the coming weeks. This marks a big step in enclosing the structure, allowing work on the interior to advance. The main electrical building has reached another milestone, with walls fully in place and preparations underway for the slab and roof installation. Over at the headworks, column framing is coming together, giving more definition to the structure. Crews are also making progress on rough-in work for the future pipe system that will support the flow equalization tank, an important component in managing wastewater treatment.
Work continues to move forward, bringing us closer to completion. Stay tuned for more updates!
