Serving seven New Jersey communities, the Somerset Raritan Valley Sewerage Authority (SRVSA) treats 19 million gallons of waste per day on a 32-acre site in the Township of Bridgewater. Originally built in 1958, the facility annexed a former industrial treatment facility in the 1980’s.
Improved Lighting Conditions
As a result of the integration, it’s electrical and lighting systems were not only outdated, but also a hodgepodge of equipment that made procuring replacement bulbs and other parts extremely difficult. The antiquated lighting also meant inadequate lighting with many places.
“To say we had inadequate lighting is an understatement,” said Sherwin Ulep, Manager of Engineering at SRVSA. “We run 24 hours a day, which means three shifts of operators and at night in the winter, it’s really dark in certain areas by 5 p.m. Even our exterior tank lighting was from the 1980s and it was very dim.”
