After an extensive planning process that included pilot testing of various treatment methods, the Commission initiated the planning and design of the new West Parish Water Treatment Plant in 2021. Hazen and Sawyer was selected as the Engineer.
Final designs of the 65-million gallon per day filtration facility were completed in spring 2024 and the project was put out to bid. Following the bid process the contract was awarded to Walsh Construction Group in September 2024.
Once the contract award was finalized, the Commission, Hazen, and Walsh began mobilizing to prepare for construction.
