Hudson’s Hope Water Treatment Facility Design-Build
Hudson's Hope, British Columbia (northeast BC, along Peace River)
This project involved modifications to Hudson’s Hope’s water treatment plant and installation of a new, direct-feed nano-filtration system. Hudson’s Hope, a community of around 1,000 people, is located in northeast BC, 90 km west of Fort St. John, 75 km upstream from where the new Site C Dam is under construction on the Peace River, and 6 km downstream from the Peace Canyon Dam. The existing water intake system from the adjacent Peace River needed to be replaced due to the system being displaced when the new reservoir is created behind the Site C dam. To save the District money, the existing sanitary system was used.

Challenges
- Accelerated schedule to meet downstream work at Site C Dam.
- High methane gas content in the well water.
- Environmentally sensitive area in the Peace River Valley.
Additional Scope Items
- New pitless adapters, commissioning of wells.
- New civil installations (water, sanitary discharge).
- Structural building modifications.
- Temporary bypass filtration set up.
- New nanofiltration system.
- New bulk gas aeration system.
- New process piping.
- Work from heights.
