Eramosa continues working with Atlantic First Nations Water Authority (AFNWA) with being awarded the development of SCADA standards for water and wastewater facilities. The SCADA standards will include standard PLC control panel designs, standard network architecture designs, development of standard PLC base programs and HMI applications, as well as associated documentation and testing.
The SCADA standards will promote consistency in design and implementation across all the facilities and facilitate ease of remote monitoring and control. This comes out of the SCADA Master Plan that Eramosa completed for the AFNWA in 2021 and will be an integral part of the AFNWA’s water and wastewater design standards for future projects and upgrades.
We are pleased and excited to be working on this project and continuing to build our relationship with the AFNWA and the communities in Atlantic Canada.
The Alloa Reservoir and Pumping Station is located north of Mayfield Road and west of Creditview Road in the Town of Caledon. The Alloa facility will be the final reservoir and pumping station on the western transmission system, fed by the Lorne Park Water Treatment Plant, and is needed to meet imminent municipal water demands for development growth in the City of Brampton, Northwest Development Area. The Region of Peel retained Burnside for the planning, detailed design and contract administration of the Alloa Reservoir and Pumping Station project.
This facility was designed to provide an ultimate capacity of 165 ML/d. The project includes the design and construction of a 35ML, two celled reservoir with design provisions for a future expansion of the reservoir storage to 70ML; a pumping station servicing Peel Zone 6W and Zone 7W; electrical supply included twinned 750kVA transformers, 5kV switchgear, 4160V feeds to pump starters and 4160V-600/347V transformers to feed 600V MCC; 1250 kW diesel generator; provision for top-up chlorination; and a dedicated administration area with a boardroom and offices. Eramosa provided electrical, instrumentation & control and SCADA services as a sub consultant to RJ Burnside.
We are very pleased to share that the Region of Peel’s Alloa Reservoir and Pumping Station Project has been selected as the Ontario Public Works Association’s (OPWA) 2020 Project of the Year for Environmental Projects between $10-$50 Million.
