Hillsboro Water Treatment Plant
City of Hillsboro
Hillsboro, IL
Hurst-Rosche Engineers, Inc. designed and provided construction
inspection/ administration services for the rehabilitation of the 1924
municipal water treatment plant. This plant has been idle for over
twenty years. Hurst-Rosche was given the assignment to bring it back to
life. EPA permitting was required for new filter underdrains, granular
activated carbon (GAC) filter material, chemical feed equipment,
programmable filter controls, all pumping (raw and finished), and
underground clearwell and related piping.
The treatment plant was upgraded from 2 million gallons per day to
3.5 million gallons per day. The total project cost was $1.7 million
which included substantial amounts of underground contamination
cleanup work.
