dc.description.abstractThe case study is on the recently constructed pumping station on the Government Highline Canal, Grand Valley Project, Grand Junction, Colorado. The pumping station is part of a canal modernization project that includes new canal check structures, local automation, and a SCADA system. The pumping station design and construction process involved four areas: pumps, hydraulic structures, power distribution, and automation. The pump aspect included determining the needed pumping capacity, operational sequencing, pump selection, specifying and purchasing pumps. Hydraulic facilities work included the design of the intake structure, isolation gate, trash rack/fish screen, pump control house, pump discharge piping, and canal delivery structure. Power distribution work included extension of 3 phase power service 1.5 miles, selection of variable frequency drives and soft starts compatible with the power distribution system, connection of power to the pump control house, development of pump control strategy, and implementation of that strategy in the automation system. This pumping station is not necessarily a model for other projects, but rather a documentation of this project's requirements and the lessons learned.
