Martiswoods Hydropneumatic Pump Station

The Martiswoods Hydropneumatic Pump Station project involves constructing a new hydropneumatic pump station, including the building, mechanical and electrical systems, pump skid, and hydropneumatic tank, along with installing suction piping from an existing tank and discharge piping to a new connection point. Ancillary components such as fittings, valves, and fire hydrants are included. A critical component of the project is the retirement and demolition of the existing elevated tank and booster pump station, followed by comprehensive site work including final grading, paving, and restoration of the area. All work must comply with State of California Department of Transportation Standard Specifications, Uniform Building, Mechanical, Plumbing, and Fire Codes, and recognized industry practices, with inspections and testing required to be performed by AASHTO-accredited laboratories using current ASTM methods. The contractor is solely responsible for quality control and compliance, even if government inspections occur, and must employ a full-time quality control inspector.
