West Trunk Sanitary

Sewer Rehabilitation

The West Trunk Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation is one of the largest and most complex trenchless engineering undertakings in North American history. Serving Peel Region’s rapidly growing population, this critical wastewater lifeline required a complete structural restoration to combat severe biogenic hydrogen-sulfide gas corrosion. As the specialty rehabilitation contractor, Tarpon Contracting successfully executed the internal structural wrapping of this massive asset, restoring its structural integrity and extending its operational lifespan by decades without surface disruption.

Buffalo Pound Water Treatment Plant Tank Rehabilitation

The Buffalo Pound Water Treatment Plant (BPWTP) is a vital regional lifeline, providing safe, high-quality potable water to over 260,000 residents across Regina, Moose Jaw, and surrounding communities. As part of a massive, multi-year $325M+ Plant Renewal Project, the facility required extensive retrofitting to address aging infrastructure and ensure long-term structural resilience. As the specialty rehabilitation contractor on site, Tarpon Contracting was engaged to execute highly critical, precision internal repairs on the plant's concrete infrastructure, eliminating structural vulnerabilities without disrupting active water treatment operations.

Client: City of Regina / City of Moose Jaw

Project Timeline: September 2023 to February 2026.

Project Specifications:

  • Location: Moose Jaw / Regina Region, Saskatchewan

  • Asset Type: Potable Water Storage & Process Tank Reservoirs

  • Core Issue: Multiple deep structural cracks inside the concrete tank walls

  • Methodology: Advanced Structural Concrete Crack Repair & Internal Waterproofing

Tarpon Contracting’s Core Contributions:

Working within the strict, high-stakes environment of a primary drinking water facility, Tarpon Contracting's specialized teams delivered targeted structural solutions, including:

  • Advanced Crack Mapping & Prep: Conducted comprehensive interior inspections to locate, trace, and mechanically prepare multiple complex crack networks along the tank walls.

  • Structural Crack Injection Repair: Utilized specialized, high-performance injection systems to seal concrete walls from the inside out, knitting the substrate back together and restoring full structural integrity.

  • Concrete Protective Solutions: Prepped surfaces for advanced concrete repair mortars and chemical-resistant liners designed to stop future water and vapor infiltration.

  • Strict Quality & Potable Water Standards: Safely executed all work using strictly controlled materials and rigorous decontamination protocols, guaranteeing zero impact on provincial drinking water compliance.

Regional Significance & Impact:

The Buffalo Pound renewal is one of the most critical public service infrastructure upgrades in Saskatchewan. Tarpon’s specialized tank repairs played a foundational role in:

  • Supporting a Massive Facility Transformation: Our precision structural repairs allowed general contracting teams (Graham-Aecon JV) to safely integrate old infrastructure with brand-new, modernized technology.

  • Securing the Region’s Water Supply: By permanently eliminating leaks and concrete distress, Tarpon helped secure a firm plant capacity of up to 250 megalitres per day, future-proofing the region’s water demands for decades to come.

  • Maintaining Continuous Operations: Our targeted, low-impact repair methodologies allowed the facility to successfully maintain strict safe drinking water standards for the public throughout the construction phase.
