Fawn Lake Water System – Masthope 250,000-Gallon Pedesphere Water Storage Tank

Electrical Services Division

• Performed the electrical construction package for Aqua Pennsylvania’s new 250,000-gallon Pedesphere elevated water storage tank serving the Fawn Lake Water System. ESD furnished the supervision, labor, travel, materials, supplies, equipment and associated resources required to perform its electrical subcontract under Caldwell Tanks.
• Coordinated the electrical installation directly with the elevated-tank foundation construction, providing required electrical conduit materials and installing electrical conduit sleeves and portions of underground conduit within the tank foundation before completion of the concrete foundation. This work required close coordination with Caldwell and the foundation subcontractor so embedded electrical components were correctly positioned before concrete placement.
• Planned conduit installations to accommodate multiple stages of tank construction. Where required, conduits were capped and terminated below finished grade inside the foundation during early construction and later extended to their final locations after the elevated tank structure was completed.
• Coordinated the project’s new electrical service requirements with the overall tank-construction schedule. Where applicable, the subcontract required electrical-service coordination to begin within 30 calendar days of receipt of the subcontract so utility and service requirements would not delay the tank project.
• Carefully coordinated conduit and lighting routing throughout the elevated tank structure so electrical installations would not interfere with access ladders or create tripping hazards on operating and maintenance platforms. This required integration of the electrical system with the physical tank configuration and access systems.
