BERKELEY TOWNSHIP MUA WATER TOWER REHAB

The Berkeley Township MUA recently closed on a $1,516,263 loan with the NJ Water Bank to rehabilitate and repaint the 1.0-million-gallon Northern Boulevard Water Storage Tank. The coating systems on the tank have reached the end of their useful life and need to be replaced.

The project includes the replacement of the interior and exterior tank coatings, and improvements to the tank accessories including ladders and vents. The rehabilitation also includes a corrosion control technique that prevents metal surface corrosion called the cathodic protection system. This project will provide the residents of Berkeley Township with a reliable supply of portable water.
