With the deluge of rain from Hurricane Harvey, the Neches River flooded and overwhelmed the city’s primary pumping station’s engines, taking them offline. With the flow to the subsequent pump stations cut off, the River Authority managing the water system required a 100,000 GPM system to temporarily bypass the primary pump station and re-establish a flow of water until the primary station could be brought back online.
