Crews are knocking out a few final tasks!

NEW UPDATE PHOTOS: Wastewater Wednesdays!

Last week, we proudly welcomed film producers from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection who filmed construction progress of the New Mainland Wastewater Reclamation Facility to document ways that FDEP is investing in water quality improvements throughout the state.  We were also featured in the latest installment City of Fort Pierce: 2024 State of Our City digital video series. The episode celebrates the First Anniversary since the ground breaking of the new MWRF. 

This week, crews are knocking out the final tasks of building the reclaim storage tank by bolting up the ladder, catwalks, and level sensor before completing the paintjob on the tank’s walls and dome. The Nereda tanks are also taking on a more finished look with the framing of the pipe wall- portals that will deliver wastewater flows to-and-from the treatment tank. We can also see the interior structure of the Nereda tanks and the concrete pillars that will support the overflow weirs and wastestream channels that will carry clarified flows to the final steps of treatment.

FPUA is grateful for this project with industry leaders Globaltech, Inc. and Haskell, and Hazen, the site designers; and the sub-contractors working so hard to keep this project on schedule. We are also thankful for the partnership with the City of Fort Pierce and St. Lucie County in this infrastructure improvement effort that will benefit the Fort Pierce community well into the next century.
