Project Description
The Grants Pass Replacement Water Treatment Plant project will provide protection against natural disasters and prepare for expected future population growth. Efforts include construction of a raw water pipeline from the existing intake and pump station, which will enable the plant to treat 22.5 million gallons per day of membrane filtered water to meet increasing demand. Additionally, the project will relocate the plant to provide protection against the 100 and 500-year flood and 2,500-year earthquake return period and enable smart technology to provide barriers to pathogens.
