This program will help reverse declining groundwater levels, reduce saltwater intrusion, slow or reduce land subsidence, and significantly reduce the amount of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus entering the Chesapeake Bay, thereby helping to ensure HRSD’s ability to protect public health and the environment for decades to come.

The SWIFT facility, located immediately adjacent to the wastewater plant, includes several state-of-the-art treatment methods, including ozone, BAF, GAC, and UV treatment. The project included a highly collaborative design process with HRSD and close coordination with multiple related, separately-administered projects.

Regional wastewater initiatives for Hampton Roads municipal utilities and the Hampton Roads Sanitation District (HRSD) are coordinated through the HRPDC Directors of Utilities Committee. Hampton Roads is served by separate sanitary sewer systems which means runoff from rainfall does not flow to the wastewater collection system.

2022年7月21日 · Officials plan to upgrade and expand the existing James River Treatment Plant in Newport News, including installing pipeline systems and a series of wells to monitor the treated water’s quality as it enters the Potomac aquifer.

These projects are essential for Hampton Roads Sanitation District’s (HRSD) SWIFT program, which aims to recharge the Potomac Aquifer with up to 100 million gallons of water daily to ensure a sustainable groundwater source and address environmental issues in Virginia, including Chesapeake Bay restoration, sea level rise, and saltwater intrusion.

2014年12月15日 · HDR led the design for a $105 million improvement project at the Army Base Treatment Plant in Norfolk, Va., for the Hampton Roads Sanitation District (HRSD). The project’s goals were threefold: improve nutrient removal, upgrade aging equipment and install a plant-wide distributed control system.

HRSD, the regional wastewater treatment utility, continues improvements for the James River Treatment Plant SWIFT project at Riverview Farm Park. Construction activities for this segment of the project include site preparation, installation of access roadways, construction of hydrants, and well drilling for two of the recharge wells.

The Challenges for HRSD •~$750M in Nutrient Removal Upgrades by 2021 •Biosolids – strong reliance on old Multiple Hearth Incinerators •~$2B in Consent Decreed Mandated Upgrades to Reduce Sanitary Sewer Overflows over 20 years •~$1B Indirect Potable Reuse Initiative - Aquifer Replenishment at ~120 MGD by 2030 4

At the time of project award, York River Treatment Plant Expansion Phase 1 was the largest construction in HRSD history. This facility located on the York River increased capacity for processing flow on the Peninsula, while improving water quality in the York River and Chesapeake Bay.
