A Tank in a Tank at Norwest Water Reclamation Plant

摘要

In 2012, based on completed master plan and feasibility studies, the City of Lubbock, Texas, and its consulting engineer, Alan Plummer Associates Inc., identified the need to address rapid growth in the northwest quadrant of the city, given that the city's main wastewater treatment facility was located at its southeast plant across town. The existing interceptor from the northwest part of the city was no longer large enough to handle peak flows, so reducing current and future interceptor loading was critical for preparing for future growth.
