Maintaining Vital Operations During Construction at Meridian Wastewater Treatment Plant
Enterprise Electric was selected as electrical contractor by The Ewing Company for the Meridian Wastewater Treatment plant project, which involved erecting a metal prefab structure to protect existing wastewater filtering equipment and operations.
Maintaining uninterrupted operations during the project was critical. Thus, in the excavation phase, Enterprise Electric emergency crews were called on a few times to re-establish electrical service after unmarked underground lines were accidentally damaged (not all underground lines at the construction site were clearly marked in drawings).
For the structure itself, outside-rated receptacles and rigid steel pipes (NEMA 3-R) were used to protect against corrosion and damage. Energy-saving lighting, plus motor HVAC controls were installed, and a fire alarm solution for the new structure was integrated into the plant’s existing system. All work was completed on time and on budget, without any disruptions to vital filtering operations.

Lighting Retrofit for Simplot Food Group Will Cut Energy Costs by more than $16,000 a Year
February 22, 2011, Boise, Idaho – Enterprise Electric, a leading electrical contractor serving industrial, commercial and residential customers in western Idaho and eastern Oregon, completed yet another large lighting retrofit project, replacing 1,667 outdated fixtures at the headquarters building of the Simplot Food Group in Boise, Idaho.
With Idaho Power "Easy Upgrades" rebate incentives exceeding $38,000 and annual energy savings totaling $16,481, the retrofit is expected to pay for itself in just 12 months.
Although Simplot was initially concerned about the effect the standard procedure of “delamping” might have (delamping involves replacing older, inefficient fixtures with fewer, but more efficient, new fixtures), a trial demonstration allayed concerns and the project was initiated. A 3-person Enterprise Electric crew worked after business hours to avoid disrupting normal operations and installed more than 1,660 highly-efficient T-8 fluorescent fixtures. The project was completed on-time/on-budget in just 4 weeks. Read focus story (PDF).
