See you at the Station – Save Your Prefabricated Waste Water Lift Stations
Congress authorizes omnibus spending bill under the title “Save our Stations” to fund the purchase of prefabricated waste water lift stations in an effort to quickly rebuild our aging sewage system!
I do not believe that this is something that I read, probably more like something I imagined while pouring over the numerous articles of pump station overflows and in general the problems with our nation’s infrastructure. A big question surfaces when it comes to our infrastructure in America. The first question that comes up is “How bad is it?” The simple answer is “It’s pretty bad”.
Most independent agencies as well as government entities rate our infrastructure as a “D”. In my limited assessment of seeing the varying state of condition of over 40 waste water lift stations throughout the western states I would assess the state of these waste water lift stations as such. A quarter of them are in general good condition and the other three quarters range in condition from operationally functional to dangerously close to failure, or worse a safety hazard to the workers who are charged with maintaining them.
But what do I know?
I recognize that my assessment of the prefabricated waste water lift stations that I’ve viewed over the years is not a sophisticated analysis as to the stations definitive condition. What I have assessed clearly as a builder of high quality prefabricated waste water lift stations is that we have to get away from all the regulatory “Red Tape” of improving our countries aging infrastructure. Do you believe like I do? That if a Professional engineer, licensed to do business in the state in which he or she is working, that it should be a less burdensome task than it currently is to get approval for a change out of an existing waste water lift station.
President Obama, at the State of The Union Address a few years back mentioned the excessive regulation as a burden when he said “We have regulation on the fish as it swims in fresh water then we have more regulation as it approaches the salt water, then again additional regulation when it comes time to smoking the fish at supper time”.
Prefabricated waste water lift stations help in a great way to lessen the time and burden of regulation in the goal to get a waste water lift station constructed and placed into operation safely, with all factors of regulation considered. At Taylor Made Pump stations we insure that our prefabricated waste water lift stations conform to the pump flow and suction head specification designated by the P.E. Taylor’s prefabricated waste water lift station performance curves are then confirmed by the manufacture as well as our applications technician that the specifications of the design engineer are followed with the additional backing and insurance of the “Team Concept”.
To rebuild your next waste water lift station, consider The Taylor prefabricated waste water lift stations!
Taylor Made Waste Water Lift Stations, are a great and cost efficient means to “Save a Station” that is in disrepair. You can rest assured as the owner of one of Taylor Mades’ prefabricated waste water lift stations, you have the reliability of high quality components built into every waste water lift station we build, but in the event of a pump failure, the Taylor Made Station, has the added advantage over our competitors, in that we design in the “EZZ-Klean”™ .
This bright red high density polyethylene suction tube works great for cleaning the wet well but also serves as peace of mind as a quick by-pass connection in an overflow condition!
The future of our waste water infrastructure will improve, as we bring efficiency into the cauldron of government contracting by reducing the regulations to a more practical level. When the government itself wants to get a project done expeditiously the same government exercises the edict of an emergency “to get the job done quickly” The term “critical” has been thrown out by both political parties. Our Waste Water Lift Stations in the United States are in critical need of repair. I cannot think of terms that are more closely related than, critical and emergency. At Taylor Made Pump Station we stand ready to “Save Our Stations“ and supply our nation with its critical need of prefabricated waste water lift stations.
