Project description: Branco Enterprises Business Development Director G.R. Stovall said the Fulbright Water Treatment Plant addition is in conjunction with renovations and site improvements to City Utilities’ hypochlorite facility. According to Branco Marketing Coordinator Brennan Robinson, the project would allow on-site sodium hypochlorite generation and eliminate the need to store chlorine gas under pressure, which comes with associated risks and regulations. The plans include a concrete-masonry block building with attached brine tank room, which assists in water filtration.
