The Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton needed this large wet-dry wastewater lift station to replace an existing system to allow the construction of new enlisted quarters. The new lift station included triplex dry-pit pumps to handle super-high flows of sewage from the facilities. An 8’ diameter precast concrete sump collects the sewage. Suction lines connect the sump to a 200-square-foot rectangular dry pit where the pumps, flow meter, and valve assembly are located. This lift station also includes an upstream grinder pit with a Macho Monster sewage grinder to pulverize solids into passable sizes.

This package lift station in Fort Lewis was configured to meet the medium flow requirements for a federal industrial process system with stormwater to treatment. Submersible centrifugal pumps are protected from turbulence by a drop bowl. A below-grade concrete electrical vault holds the disconnect panel and electrical connections. A drain-pipe allows this vault to double as a stormwater drain for the area around the lift station. An outdoor UL listed control panel includes a basic alarm, floats for liquid level-sensing, and a NEMA rated enclosure.

Serving the US Army Base, Fort Shafter, this military neighborhood needed a lift station replacement package to be installed adjacent to the existing lift station. The Army and Romtec Utilities configured this submersible centrifugal pump station to pump the medium flow of municipal wastewater. The outdoor control panel utilizes conductive probes for primary and backup level controls and an autodialer for communications. A new generator was installed at grade above an existing generator pit. The owner supplied shelters for the panel and onsite generator.
