TOUR Address 1: OMID Pump Station, 11001 E. State Fair Ave., Detroit, MI 48234 (Sometimes easier to search for Nolan Distrubution accross the street)
OMIDD Station Description: Walsh is providing pre-construction and CMAR services for the construction of a new 9,800 SF electrical building with CIP electrical chase, replacement of (5) 30”-inch 1250HP vertical centrifugal pumps, new 24KV MV substation, refurbishment and/or replacement of (5) 84-inch knife gate valves, demo and re-installation of 78-inch and 48-inch discharge piping, site pavement improvements, assist/input on overall design, compilation and management of bid packages, and overall oversight of the project. The project involves a challenging amount of flow control, maintenance of plant operations, and phasing to satisfy the EPA capacity permit while providing an effective and fast paced schedule. Schedule is critical because the pump station’s efficiency is quickly deteriorating with pumps failing consistently.
