Report

Summary

There are 41 steel tanks located at 33 different sites serving as potable water storage/pressure surge protection facilities within the City's water production and distribution system. A program has been established to assess and rehabilitate these steel tanks to prevent deterioration over time based on their coating, structural, and site conditions.

 

HDR will provide assessment and design services for two sites, Tramanto Tank and Well 235, that fall under the "Group J Steel Tanks" project. HDR's services will include, but are not limited to: conduct inspections, provide assessments, prepare rehabilitation construction documents, obtain permits, and provide pre-construction services. In addition, HDR will provide inspection and oversight for warranty repair at Papago North Tank and re-coating at Deer Valley Water Treatment Plant Process Surge Tank.
