Explanation:
The City of Hollywood's Water Treatment Plant (WTP) is a 60 million gallons per day (MGD) plant that not only provides high quality water to the residents of the City but also serves approximately 300 acres in the Town of Davie, 50 acres in the City of Dania Beach, and 100 acres in the Seminole Tribe of Florida reservation. WTP also provides wholesale water to Broward County's Water and Wastewater Services Districts 3A and 3B/C. In addition to retail and wholesale water services, the City has an emergency connection with the City of Dania Beach, which withdraws water from the City's system to maintain its system pressure.
WTP treats raw water from wellfields in the Biscayne and Floridan aquifers using three major treatment processes: lime softening (LS), membrane softening (MS), and reverse osmosis (RO). The water treated by each process is blended, disinfected, and pumped into the service area. The MS system was originally constructed in 1995, with subsequent membrane replacements in 2004 and 2012. This system has seven trains that soften Biscayne aquifer water using nanofiltration (NF) membranes.
Due to the age and decreased reliability of the existing MS Train C, the City has determined that it is necessary to replace it with a 2-stage system to meet treatment objectives and provide reliable high quality drinking water. The remaining MS trains A through G will be replaced in the future.
