Galveston Main WWTP Reconstruction

Boyer provided electrical and controls for the reconstruction of the Galveston Main Wastewater Treatment Plant. The new plant process structures are built to higher elevations and of sufficient support to account for the storm surge and winds associated with tropical storms. Construction took place in phases with the various processes of the original and new plant both in operation. The new plant was built in place of the original plant without affecting the water processing capabilities of the facility. The majority of the plant electrical raceway and wiring were installed throughout the plant on elevated racks or support structures to meet the new FEMA elevation standards. New plant distribution and control equipment were installed on racks built to withstand FEMA wind loading standards.
