Description
Originally constructed in 1987, the wastewater treatment plant in West Cocalico Township was nearing the end of its service life by 2020. No new connections had been allowed since the early 1990s because the facility was running at full capacity. This bottleneck limited the growth of local businesses as well as residential development. When it became clear that expanding the capacity of the existing plant was not possible; completion of a new replacement facility became urgent before the old plant failed.
Products Used
Dutchland, the pre-cast concrete producer, added Penetron's crystalline waterproofing (PENETRON ADMIX SB) and anti-microbial admixtures to ensure the necessary protection for the precast concrete screen vault and pump station structures.
