Vancouver-based Northwest Pipe Co. announced Monday that it has landed a contract to manufacture steel piping for a portion of the Bois d’Arc Lake municipal water project in northern Texas.
Construction manager Garney Construction picked Northwest Pipe to supply both sections of the project’s treated water pipeline, which will carry water from a new treatment plant in Leonard, Texas — about 60 miles northeast of Dallas — to existing pipelines in the North Texas Municipal Water District.
Northwest Pipe has already been named as one of the suppliers for the raw water pipe that will bring water from the lake to the treatment plant. The new contract represents an additional 22,000 tons of pipe.
Manufacturing for the treated water pipeline is expected to begin later this year, the company said in a press release, once manufacturing for the raw water pipe is completed.
