The improvements include converting the existing pumps to direct- coupled variable frequency drive submersible motor pumps, replacement of existing piping and valves, and installation of an emergency pump connection for current & future pump station bypass.

Electrical improvements include elevating the electrical controls, installation of an automatic transfer switch and installing a permanent generator on an elevated platform supported on micro-piles.
