Smith and Sons Electric has completed numerous water treatment facilities from the smallest Time and Material upgrade to a new $4.2 million dollar Alameda County Water District-ACWD waste water treatment facility. We have assisted ACWD in district wide up grades and development of district-wide telemetry systems and the installation of PLC controls. Smith and Sons Electric has both the management and technical skills required for your next project.
| Project Name: Alameda County Water Treatment Plant #2 |
|
| Contract Amount:
$4,200,000.00 |
| General Contractor: Kiewit Pacific Construction |
| Project Description:
The Alameda County Water Treatment Plant a $35.5 million dollar facility is capable of producing a maximum of 35 million gallons of potable water per day. Smith and Sons Electric in conjunction with the water treatment facility completed a 1.2 Mega Watt Electrical Generating Plant that supplies all the plants electrical needs. Smith and Sons Electric was also the provider and installer of the PLC-computer-based, redundant, programmable local controllers that provide process and control monitoring. This facility also uses the state of the art ozone disinfection system that reduces the uses of chemicals in the water treatment process. As an example of the scope of the Electrical work required at this facility, the following materials were installed: 26,400' of underground electrical conduit, 87,900' of exposed conduit throughout the plant, over 1,163,800' of electrical wire and cable and over 23,000 man-hours. |
| Project Name:Peralta Tyson Blending Facility |
|
| Contract Amount:
$951,342.00 |
| General Contractor: Prime Contract |
| Project Description: The ACWD Peralta Tyson Blending Facility is located in the City of Fremont and is owned by the Alameda County Water District.

| Project Name: Mowry Wellfield Emergency Generators |
|
| Contract Amount: $150,000.00 |
| General Contractor: John Clay General Engineering and Construction |
| Project Description:This project for the Alameda County Water District was designed to provide emergency power to 8 - 2,400 volt well pumps at this well field. Smith and Sons Electric installed 2 owner-furnished 2400 volt Caterpillar generators and 1200 amp high voltage switch gear. The generators were provided with a 2000 gallon above-ground diesel fuel system which required all class 1 division 1 wiring. |
| Project Name: ACWD Desalination Facility |
|
| Contract Amount: $2,518,500.00 |
| General Contractor: Pacific Mechanical Construction |
Project Description:
The ACWD brackish water desalination facility was the first to be constructed in Northern California. The Newark Desalination Facility (Desal Facility) produces drinkable water by removing salts and other minerals from brackish groundwater.
The Desal Facility utilizes state-of-the-art technology to convert brackish water to potable water. Called reverse osmosis, this process forces water under pressure across a semi-permeable membrane. The membrane allows water molecules to pass through but stops dissolved minerals such as salts and iron.
Smith and Sons Electric provided High and Medium Voltage power, instrumentation and all control and security systems for this state of the art facility. |
