Grand Valley Estates Water System Improvements - This
project resulted from the development of the new Forest Hills Eastern High
School located at Knapp Street and Pettis Avenue in Ada Township. The new
High School required a large water source for fire protection. The
adjacent subdivision, Grand Valley Estates, had such a source in two
wells, but was also lacking in fire protection. This project was a joint
effort by the school district and the Township. The project included
installing a 250,000 gallon elevated water tank and 3,070 ft of 12" and 8"
diameter watermain on the school site, 1,350 ft of 12" watermain in Knapp
Street to connect the two systems, upgrading the two existing wells from
350 gpm to 460 gpm, removing an existing hydropneumatic tank, installing a
new radio telemetry level control system, and installing a new chlorine
disinfection system. The project was completed in March of 2004. |
