FLOW EQUALIZATION BASINS
Owner: City of San Diego
$5-10 Million
North City Water Reclamation Plant
San Diego, CA

AWARDS:
Concrete Structure—Building of the Year 1999

American Concrete Institute
San Diego Chapter

Flow Equalization Basins
Like the entire North City Water Reclamation
Plant, the design of the Flow Equalization
Basins evokes a business-park feel. Each
basin holds three million gallons of raw
sewage. The structure is visible from busy
Miramar Road between I-805 and I-15.


The project was a component of the North City Water Reclamation Plant (NCWRP), which began operating in 1997 and was the first new large treatment plant to open in San Diego in over 30 years. The project involved the construction of two prestressed concrete holding tanks (basins) with associated piping, as well as the construction of extensive retaining / screen walls to aesthetically “blend” the overall project with the surrounding area.


"I appreciate the efforts of C. E. Wylie Construction in making the North City Water Reclamation Plant a successful project. In particular, the efforts of [management personnel] are much appreciated. Their work in helping to coordinate the efforts of multiple prime contractors on the site, in addition to managing several of your large subcontractors, was one of the key elements of the success of the North City Water Reclamation Plant."

—Mike DiNapoli,
Contracts Manager,
Sverdrup/ICF Kaiser for the City of San Diego
