39th Street and Power Boulevard Sewer Lift Station

MSMM was tasked by the City of Kenner to provide full engineering design for sewer lift station rehabilitation to the 39^th Street and Power Blvd. Sewer Lift Station located in Kenner, LA. The 39^th and Power station is a duplex self-priming pump station with buried concrete wetwell and above ground CMU  block/brick exterior building. The 8” discharge forcemain exits the building on the north side and then travels westerly to the Granada and Martinique lift station.  The lift station requires rebuilding of pumps, replacement of motor, and replacement of the existing control panel.

MSMM tasks on this project consisted of full engineering and design for rehabilitation to upgrade the lift station for increased capacity and improved functionality. This included: refurbishing the pumps, increasing the impeller size, upgrading the motor, replacing the control panel with new variable frequency drives, upgrading the SCADA system, adding an emergency pump out (EPO) and adding an exhaust fan to the building.  MSMM completed full engineering and design in late 2019.  Advertisement and construction have been waiting on an EPA grant which was finally closed in March 2020.  Advertisement for bids is anticipated in Fall 2021.
