Project Update and Upcoming Plant Shut Down
Denton Water Utilities is excited to share a construction update for our Ray Roberts Water Treatment Plant Re-Rate Project!
The Ray Roberts Treatment Plant, which is currently able to treat 20 Million Gallons of water per Day (MGD), will be taken offline from March 3rd through March 14th for upgrades and improvements to existing plant infrastructure. This work will make significant strides towards the additional 6 MGD treatment capacity we will have upon project completion in 2027.
To make these upgrades, the Ray Roberts plant will be completely off-line from March 3rd through March 14th. There will be no impact to our customers as demands in March average around 18 MGD, and the Lewisville Treatment Plant has a 30 MGD capacity.
The most recently completed construction while the plant has remained in service is as follows:
The foundation has been poured and is curing at the High Service Pump Station. Pump pre-removal testing has been completed at the High Service Pump Station. Coating at the chemical containment pit has been completed. Piping has been installed at the Ground Storage Tank and the foundation is being finished out. Filter media and underlayment caps have been replaced on filters 1 through 4 and they have been returned to service. Archer Western is now working on doing the same for updates on filters 7 and 8.

Thank you for your contribution!
