Project Description
Wastewater metering station improvements in Jackson Township, NJ gave the county utilities authority a reliable way to measure the flow arriving from Jackson’s sewer system. Pillari built the structures that make that measurement possible.
Why Metering Matters
Jackson Township’s wastewater travels to the county system through a 36″ interceptor line, a large sewer main that collects flow from the local network. Before this project, the authority needed a more accurate way to measure what came through that line. Reliable flow data helps a utility plan capacity, monitor performance and track how much wastewater each community sends.
What Pillari Built
The project centred on three connected structures:
- A 12′ x 12′ diversion chamber that directs flow from the interceptor into the station
- A 30-foot-deep pump station equipped with 6″ submersible pumps
- A metering chamber where the flow is measured
Building at this depth, next to an active sewer line, calls for careful planning and precise work. Each structure had to fit and connect exactly so that flow could be diverted, pumped and measured without interruption.
A Valuable Upgrade for the Region
With the metering station in place, it gave the Ocean County Utilities Authority (OCUA) a reliable way to accurately meter incoming flow from Jackson Township’s interceptor. It’s a practical improvement that supports better planning for one of the region’s growing communities.
The Result
This project shows the kind of wastewater pumping station work Pillari delivers for public utility owners: deep, precise and built to keep essential systems running.
