Franklin Water Treatment Facility at Wells No. 1 and 2

Due to presence of iron and manganese at two of Franklin's water supply wells, the Town took steps to construct a water treatment facility to treat the water from the wells. Tata & Howard conducted a water treatment facility siting evaluation and pilot study; and completed the design of the treatment facility, which utilizes ozone and ultrafiltration technology.

Tata & Howard also provided construction administration services for the water treatment facility and associated new raw and finished water transmission mains. The facility has treatment capacities of 1.2 mgd for iron and manganese removal. The facility includes a main building that houses static mixers, ozone feed equipment, chemical feed equipment, prefilters, membrane filtration equipment, instrumentation and controls. The project also included approximately 10,000 linear feet of water transmissioon mains.

We also successfully provided assistance in securing approximately $6.2 million with a zero percent interest loan through the SRF program.
