Aqua Nereda basins wrapping up concrete phase
NEW UPDATE PHOTOS: Wastewater Wednesdays!
Last week saw significant progress at the MWRF site, with second-floor decking completed and masonry work initiated on the Operations and Maintenance building. Work on the 42” influent lines and influent equalization tank also advanced, while favorable weather conditions ensured the project remained on schedule despite earlier delays from Hurricane Milton.
This week marks significant progress across the site. The Aqua Nereda basins and sludge buffer tanks are wrapping up their concrete phase, with crews preparing to move forward with the installation of piping, equipment, and stairways. The 42-inch influent lines are now stubbed up and ready for connection to the future headworks structure once it is constructed.
Meanwhile, the Operations and Maintenance building is also advancing, with the second-floor decking now complete. Crews have begun constructing the second floor of the maintenance bays, signaling steady progress on this critical part of the project.
We are excited to see these developments taking shape and will continue sharing updates as the work moves forward to better serve our community.
FPUA is grateful for this project with industry leaders Globaltech, Inc., Haskell and Hazen, the site designers and build team; TLC Diversified, Inc., re-routing the conveyance system to redirect wastewater flows away from the Indian River Lagoon; Kimley-Horn, the conveyance system designers, and the sub-contractors working so hard to keep this project safe and on schedule.
We are also thankful for the partnership with the City of Fort Pierce in this infrastructure improvement effort that will benefit the Fort Pierce community for generations.
