As the Design-Builder and Consultant, our work included upgrading the RTUs at Lift Stations 14, 15, 16, and 32, which involved the installation of a new wastewater master radio and diplexer at the WTP Control Building, as well as a new antenna at each lift station. We also performed all necessary programming and SCADA modifications to ensure full system functionality. Our team managed the entire process, including coordination, implementation, and ensuring compliance with all regulatory requirements. Final documentation was provided upon project completion for seamless closeout.
