The Kingsport WTP HSPS project consists of installation of large diameter underground ductile iron pipe and construction of a new High Service Pump Station to include a new “Electrical Room” to contain the major electrical components as well as a new “Pump Room” where the new High Service Pump No. 4 will be installed with a 20-ft deep steel suction shaft fully encased in concrete. This project also requires improvements to the existing High Service Pump Station where an additional concrete influent vault will be constructed against the existing structure to receive flow from the new underground ductile iron pipe. Additionally, the existing High Service Pumps No. 1-3 will receive new variable frequency controllers. Finally, the existing electrical switchboard will be replaced with a new motor control center within the new Electrical Room.
