August 17, 2011
Crews pour cement for outside ring of the Disney Road Elevated Water Storage Tank (EWST) capital project in Severn. This EWST is one of fourteen planned for Anne Arundel County over the next 10 years and is part of the County's overall Water Supply and Sewer Systems Master Plan. These storage tanks will provide the difference between water treatment plant's maximum daily capacity and the demands during peak use (morning and night). They also provide storage needed for fire fighting purposes beyond plant's capacity and provide water during power outages, water main breaks and any needed system shut-downs. This project is expected to be complete in May of 2012.
The Master Plan identified the need to reduce dependence on Baltimore City Supply, develope available and documented groundwater aquifer supplies and interconnect adjacent pressure zones
