The Brush Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant is the largest of the three owned and operated facilities of Johnson City. J. Cumby’s involvement with The WWTP Aeration Blower Replacement and Electrical Upgrades Project includes blower and electrical switchgear replacement as well as several other architectural improvements to the existing Equipment Building.

The aforementioned architectural improvements include door and window replacement, wall panel replacement, replacement of the existing roof covering and a complete interior painting. Most of the previous existing equipment was installed in the early 1970s and has reached its ‘useful’ service life.

Recent improvements have included demolition of existing aeration blowers, controls and air piping out to the aeration basin connections, installation of new blowers with control system and new overhead air piping out to the aeration basin connections, installation of two new MCCs in the chlorine room and new building entry. We also upgraded the HVAC system to meet code requirements in the blower area and RAS pump room and to provide air-conditioned space for electrical equipment, while maintaining system operation with maximum system outage of 3 hours
