Public Works Johnson Pump Station Component and Infrastructure Replacements UT1402
Project Description
This project will consist of the replacement of (2) two pumps and motors inside the Johnson Pump Station facility located at 8501
Harwood Road. Included will be replacement of a short section of discharge header pipe outside the pump station, replacement of
the entry pipe from the road side to the storage tank, and replacement of the manually operated water valve with a motorized valve
on the entry pipe.
Project Justification
The City of North Richland Hills owns 18 pumps and motors, which are used to boost water pressures, manipulate water tank levels,
and provide ample water supply to its citizens. The pumps and motors are vital to operations and essential for providing safe and
reliable water in the distribution system. Several of the City's pumps and motors are aging and in need of replacement. Currently,
there are 2 remaining pumps and motors that are 30 years old in the system. The 2 pumps and motors are located inside Johnson
Pump Station. As pumps and motors age and wear, components begin to slow down and pump efficiency falls below the standard
to adequately provide stable water pressures. These two pumps are directly connected to a section of discharge header pipe used
to carry pressures to College Pump Station. The discharge header piping directly outside of the pump station is made of steel and
has been repaired for leaks on two occasions. Approximately 40 feet of steel pipe remaining in the ground was installed over 30
years ago and is in need of replacement. The water line on site used to carry water into the Johnson Ground Storage Tank is in
need of replacement. This cast iron water line has also been in the ground for over 30 years and showing signs of deterioration.
This pipe is important in the process of filling this 2 million gallon tank for the City's storage and detention in the southeast end of
town. During the construction of the new tank entry line a new motorized valve will be installed to replace the existing manually
operated valve. Currently the manually operated valve outside the tank is leaking by and cannot be completely turned off due to age
and deterioration. The installation of a new motorized valve will enable the Water Department to better control the circulation and
water levels at the tank through SCADA operations thus improving overall water quality in the system.
