Project
Nansemond Treatment Plant SWIFT Facility
As part of the SWIFT FSIP, HRSD is closing its Boat Harbor Treatment Plant (BHTP) in Newport News, VA. A new pumping and equalization facility will be constructed near BHTP. Screened and de-gritted wastewater will be pumped through a new transmission force main to Nansemond Treatment Plant (NTP).
Project Details
Construction of multiple capital improvement projects are underway at NTP. Once complete, wastewater will be highly treated prior to entering the Nansemond SWIFT Facility. This advanced water treatment process will produce SWIFT Water, which will meet drinking water quality standards and match the characteristics of the Potomac Aquifer.
The project will design, construct, and commission upgrades to the NTP to produce SWIFT Water, provide SWIFT Water to any of 19 recharge wells, and return well backflush water from any of the 19 wells to the NTP.
