The Western reservoir would also be retired under this plan and the Poplar Bridge booster station relocated. However, expanding the plant capacity to 14 mgd is recommended to increase system reliability, flexibility, and overall water quality while optimizing the remaining service life of the plant. This expansion could be accomplished through any of the lime softening alternatives evaluated. However, retrofitting the plant with two solids contact basins appears to best meet the City's needs. All of the improvements included in the recommended plan can be financed from annual revenues and the cash on-hand that has been accumulated for this purpose.
