City of Bozeman Water Treatment Plant
Doubling Capacity Without Missing a Drop
Service: Civil Engineering & Land Development
The Challenge
The City of Bozeman needed to double the treatment capacity of its Water Treatment Plant without interrupting water service to the city. The existing control systems were found to be obsolete, requiring a full replacement — not just an expansion — of the plant's operational infrastructure. All upgrades had to be sequenced around continuous, uninterrupted treatment operations.
Our Solution
Gaston Engineering & Surveying provided full project management, civil engineering design, and construction management for the expansion. New filtration units and a chemical feed system were designed and installed to meet the increased capacity requirements. A new control center was engineered to operate both the existing and new filter units simultaneously, and all yard and in-house piping was revised to integrate with the upgraded system. The project was completed on time and on budget.
