Devon Excess Flow Lift Station and Force Main
Village of Bartlett, Illinois
EEI provided design and construction engineering services for the new Devon Ave Excess Flow Lift Station and Force Main, which replaced the existing Excess Flow Treatment Facility to convey excess flows to the Village’s main wastewater treatment facility (WWTF). The design included a new wet well structure with above-ground prefabricated valve/meter and electrical/controls buildings, as well as coordination with design for separate interceptor and force main improvements.
Construction also included coordination between the new lift station and interceptor/force main improvements, which were completed under two separate construction contracts. In addition to conveying excess flows, the new lift station serves a dual purpose and also replaces an existing Village lift station, providing regular service to a residential subdivision and conveying flows to an existing interceptor. The wet well is subdivided into two sections with two sets of pumps separated by an overflow dividing wall to provide operational flexibility.
