New Jersey town upgrades main station utilizing the same pumps that provided decades of reliable service

The mayor and council of Kearny, N.J., created the Kearny Municipal Utilities Authority (KMUA) in May 1988. KMUA is responsible for the collection of wastewater from portions of the Meadowlands and South Kearny sections of the town. It also is responsible for screening solids from the wastewater and pumping it to the Passaic Valley Sewerage Commission (PVSC) in Newark, N.J., for final treatment. KMUA maintains one 17.5-mgd pumping station in South Kearny–the Kearny Point Pump Station—and three smaller pumping stations in the Kearny Meadowlands. The Kearny Point Pump Station was outfitted with four Flygt dry pumps in the early 1990s.

After a lengthy service life and surviving Superstorm Sandy in 2012, it was determined that the four large Flygt dry pit pumps also needed to be upgraded. KMUA had been so pleased and impressed with the pumps, as well as local service available from Flygt distributor Pumping Services Inc., that it worked closely with its engineer to specify the replacement units around the existing pumps
