SHEPHERD ROAD LIFT STATION

The City of Washougal’s Shepherd Road Lift Station needed an upgrade to support added flows from new upstream development. This is one of their larger pump stations and is also known as Lift Station #8. Windsor Engineers was contracted to design major improvements, including additional pumping capacity, wet well hydraulic improvements, electrical and control upgrades, and a generator relocation. A major challenge with this project was that the upgrades must be completed while keeping the station live. Windsor included by-pass pumping and temporary tie-ins as design features to accommodate the uninterrupted use.
