Copper Basin Water Reclamation Facility Nears Completion

The Copper Basin Water Reclamation Facility, a crucial infrastructure project spearheaded by Epcor, the utility company serving San Tan Valley, is making significant strides toward completion. Currently, the project stands at an impressive 75% completion mark, signaling a major leap forward in enhancing the region's water treatment and reclamation capabilities.

Over the recent months, the project has witnessed several key developments. The construction of essential concrete structures has been completed, forming the backbone of the facility. Alongside this, the delivery and installation of major equipment pivotal for the water reclamation process have been accomplished. This phase marks a critical juncture in ensuring the facility's operational readiness.

Progress has also been notable in the piping and electrical domains, laying down the infrastructure necessary for efficient and safe water treatment operations. These advancements reflect Epcor's commitment to delivering a state-of-the-art facility that aligns with both environmental sustainability and community needs.

Despite the smooth progress, Epcor remains cautiously aware of the potential impacts of the global supply chain disruptions. These widespread challenges have affected various industries, including large-scale construction projects like the Copper Basin facility. In anticipation of potential delays, Epcor has secured a three-month extension from the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality, adjusting the project's operational deadline to March 31, 2024.

This proactive measure ensures that, despite the unpredictable supply chain scenario, the project stays on course to meet its revised completion date. Epcor's approach underscores their dedication to not only adhering to schedule but also to ensuring the highest standards of construction and operational efficiency.

The Copper Basin Water Reclamation Facility is set to play a pivotal role in San Tan Valley's water management strategy. Once operational, it will significantly enhance the area's capacity for water treatment and recycling, thus supporting the community's growth and sustainability goals.

Epcor encourages the residents of San Tan Valley to stay informed about the project's progress. As the facility nears its completion, it stands as a testament to Epcor's commitment to serving the community with essential utility services, while also prioritizing environmental stewardship.
