Pearland City Council awarded three contracts at its July 25 meeting relating to the expansion of the Reflection Bay Water Reclamation Facility in Shadow Creek Ranch.
The facility was built in 2003 with a 2 million gallon per day capacity, officials said.
City staff recommended an expansion to the facility based on a preliminary engineering report completed in November 2013. The project will renovate the facility and increase capacity to 6 million gallons per day, officials said.
The council approved a $44.6 million construction contract with Pepper Lawson Waterworks. In addition, the council awarded $1.7 million for construction management to Ardurra Group and $272,000 to Terracon Consultants Inc., for construction materials testing services.
