The District is undertaking the 189^th Pump Station & Pipeline Project to provide a reliable water supply to customers in the area.

The existing 189^th Pump Station, located at 7400 SW 189^th Ave in Beaverton, Oregon, needs to be replaced with a 5.2 million gallon per day pump station. The existing 2-million-gallon concrete reservoir on the site is anticipated to be demolished as part of this Project. The existing well will remain as is.

The existing Goyak Pump Station and 1-million-gallon concrete reservoir, located at 18700 Rigert Road in Beaverton, Oregon, are also aging and anticipated to be demolished as part of this Project. A 16-inch diameter high pressure transmission main is proposed to be installed between the 189^th site and the District’s Goyak facilities.

The District is proposing to replace the existing 189th Pump Station with a seismically resilient pump station. The Project includes the following major activities:

·         Design and construction of a new 5.2 MGD pump station which includes permanent on-demand backup power

·         Design and construction of approximately 1,850 feet of 16-inch ductile iron pump discharge piping

·         Demolition of the existing pump stations and reservoirs at the 189^th and Goyak sites

·         Updated site security system at the 189^th site, including cameras with local backup

The proposed schedule for selecting and contracting with a Progressive Design-Builder is provided below. Minor deviations may occur due to unforeseen circumstances.
