This comprehensive rehabilitation and expansion project enhances the efficiency, reliability, and treatment capacity of the Cartersville Water Treatment Plant. Major treatment process improvements encompass rehabilitation of existing flocculation and sedimentation basins, expansion of the filter building to accommodate increased capacity, construction of two new flocculation and sedimentation basins, and a new filter building to improve overall treatment efficiency and water quality.
Infrastructure upgrades include rehabilitation of the plant drain pump station to provide increased reliability to plant operations, and installation of two new backup generators to enhance the facility’s resilience and ensure uninterrupted service during power outages. Civil and site improvements feature construction of a new entrance road on US Highway 41 to improve accessibility and overall site functionality.
This modernization project upgrades critical infrastructure, enhances treatment capacity, and ensures the Cartersville WTP continues to meet the growing water quality and demand requirements of the community for decades to come through strategic expansion and comprehensive system rehabilitation.
This project had an interim milestone date that required the floc/sed basins to be operational within one year to allow for the other basins to be taken down for rehab. This way the plant was able to keep up with service demand. Our self-perform capabilities and resources allowed us to break ground days after NTP with several crews to meet this aggressive milestone date.
