Primary Details
Description
The project consists of the installation of an automated pump station to replace the existing temporary pump station at the Forest Hills Park along West Bougainvillea Avenue. The new pump station will eliminate the need for maintenance personnel to operate the pump station during wet weather conditions and will provide a more reliable means to control upstream water levels. This station will be controlled remotely through the City’s SCADA system.
Community Benefits
This project aims to enhance stormwater management in the Forest Hills Park area by replacing the City’s existing portable pump with a permanent, automated pump station. The new system will improve flood control by activating automatically during high water levels, reducing the need for manual operation and increasing reliability. It will be powered by the electric grid with backup systems, ensuring continuous protection of public and private properties during storm events.
