Water Supply System Feasibility Study and Implementation

Posted October 14, 2020 By Ashley Csaszar

Penn E&R was retained by a confidential manufacturing client to complete a detailed water supply feasibility study for a facility located in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania.  The site, which manufactures asphalt, water-based sealants and coatings used for paving, looked to permanently close-in-place two on-site water supply wells and develop a new system to supply approximately 10,000 to 20,000 gallons of water to the facility over a two-hour period.  Penn E&R was selected based on its past success completing similar feasibility studies, engineering and construction projects. 

KEY PROJECT TASKS:

  • Performed detailed analysis of alternative using five criteria:
    • Long-term effectiveness and permanence
    • Implementability
    • Permitting
    • Costs
    • Environmental impacts
  • Created decision matrix to assess each alternative’s benefits and limitations in order to identify key tradeoffs
  • Researched provision of water via three main sources:
    • Public water supply via Pennsylvania American Water
    • Fresh water intake from Susquehanna River
    • Bulk water supply delivered to site via railway
  • Prepared comprehensive Summary Report of Findings including a ranking of the alternatives based on the decision matrix analysis and provided recommendation

Penn E&R was also retained by the client and successfully implemented the suggested alternative for the facility’s water supply system.

PROJECT COMPLETION: 2012

SIZE OF SITE: 4.6 acres
