Description | Wauwatosa owned water pumping stations currently receive water from Milwaukee Water Works and subsequently pump the water at an elevated pressure to homes, businesses, and elevated storage towers across the City. Pumping stations and elevated towers ensure that appropriate water pressure and volume are available throughout the City for residential, commercial, and fire fighting efforts when necessary. The City of Wauwatosa's water utility provides service to two separate pressure districts, east and west. The eastern district utilizes three pumping stations and two elevated towers, while the western district only has one station and one tower available at this time. The lack of a secondary pumping station makes the western district extremely vulnerable to system wide failures if the water feeding the pumping station or the pumping station itself experiences a failure. If a systemwide failure were to occur and pressure within the system was reduced the lack of pressure would result in potential contamination to the drinking water supply as well severely limit the ability to provide water to combat fires. In order to protect the western pressure district's water customers a secondary pumping station is needed in order to provide backup to the existing primary station. The proposed secondary pumping station would likely be located either near the Burleigh Water Tower or the northern edge of the City at Hampton Road and 124th Street depending upon availability of a source of supply. This pumping station would be sized in order to serve the entire western district so that if a failure occurs at the primary station no loss of service would occur. This project is in included in the City of Wauwatosa FY 2023-2027 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). As of February 23, 2023, further details regarding design and construction have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
