Publication: Pipelines 2012: Innovations in Design, Construction, Operations, and Maintenance, Doing More with Less
Abstract
The IPL Program is a raw water supply program that integrates Tarrant Regional Water District (TRWD) - and City of Dallas-owned water supplies from Lake Palestine, Cedar Creek Reservoir, and Richland Chambers Reservoir. As one of the largest water supply projects in the nation and one of the largest ever undertaken in Texas, the IPL will consist of a 350 MGD raw water transmission pipeline from Lake Palestine to Lake Benbrook, with connections to a new 250 MGD Pump station at Richland Chambers Reservoir, a new 277 MGD Pump Station at Cedar Creek Reservoir and a new 150 MGD Pump Station at Lake Palestine. The Pipeline will be approximately 150 miles in length and will contain 3 booster pump stations. As part of the IPL, TRWD retained CH2M HILL to design appropriate intake structures and pump stations on Lake Palestine, Cedar Creek Reservoir, and a pump station at Richland Chambers Reservoir.
