Sewer pump station upgrades, including 15 pumps, an odor control system, and two generator sets, at a total of 8 pump stations
[edit] Points in Favor
In 2002, the City of Fife constructed Pump Station No.12 as part of the LID-98 Sewer Improvement Project. The Pump Station serves over 1100 homes in the Radiance/Saddle Creek/Valley Haven planned community and commercial uses on 70th Ave East. The Pump Station consists of a wet well 36 feet deep with two submersible pumps, discharge header vault, electrical controls in the open building shelter, and magnetic meter vault. In 2005, the Army Corps of Engineers decertified the levee system along the Puyallup River which forced new developments around Pump Station No.12 to be built 6 to 8 feet higher. During the January 2009 flood event stormwater inundated the pump station forcing an emergency restart and 24 hour period of staffing for the purpose of construction and operation of a protective sandbag retaining wall with temporary pumps. During this emergency the City of Fife rented a light stand, sand bagging machine and several pumps in its flood fighting effort. Considering Fife’s low-lying location and reoccurring risk of flooding, availability of this equipment would allow faster deployment both within the City of Fife and Pierce County EOC when another flood emergency arises and ensure its availability to the City of Fife when needed on short notice. Both options include the MB-T1 Sandbagging machine. Option one included a 6” pump with silent pack to reduce noise. Option two is for an alternate light and open frame 6” pump.
