Montgomery Watson Will Design and Build Surface-water Treatment Plant

Montgomery Watson Americas and Montgomery Watson Constructors will design and build the Industrial Business Park Water Production Facility and related facilities for United Water Services. Located in San Antonio, TX, the facilities will serve the residential and industrial communities surrounding Kelly Air Force Base. The contract, which was signed with Bexar Metropolitan Development Corporation, is worth $16.7-million.

This contract calls for the fast-track completion of a river intake, pumping station, raw-water pipeline, 9-mgd membrane treatment plant, and a high-service pumping station, in addition to associated site work and control buildings.

When completed, the 9-m-d surface-water treatment plant will be one of first ultrafiltration membrane plants in the U.S., one of the first surface-water membrane plants in Texas, and the first surface-water treatment plant in San Antonio. Bexar Met will own the facilities when it is completed.
