South Deerfield Roaring Brook Water Treatment Facility
South Deerfield Roaring Brook Water Treatment Facility
The South Deerfield Water Supply District retained Tata & Howard to design a water filtration plant for its 1.4 mgd Roaring Brook Reservoir surface water supply.
The facility includes a raw water pump station, three coagulation/filtration units, chemical storage and feed facilities, finished water clearwell, two sludge storage lagoons and a 1.0 mg precast concrete storage reservoir.
The plant has the ability to either recycle supernatant from the sludge storage lagoons to the raw water inlet or discharge the supernatant to a nearby brook under an EPA NPDES permit. Tata & Howard also successfully secured approximately $4.23 million in a zero interest loan from the DWSRF program.
