Denver International Airport

A Water Supply System Built with an Eye on the Future

As one of the largest recent public works projects in the US, the Denver International Airport was originally envisioned to be four times the size of Stapleton Airport, and would be built in phases. While Stapleton handled approximately 27 million passengers, the new airport was designed to ultimately handle 110 million passengers each year.
The water system for the new airport required consideration of not only the usage needs of the new airport facility, but also the future needs of the surrounding area. Built in a large (43 square miles) undeveloped area, the potential for future development was tremendous. Several factors made the projection of future demand challenging, not the least of which was the fact that the plans for the airport continually changed throughout construction.
In the construction of a new pump station, Rodney Hunt Company was awarded the contract for one 12" and two 10" Rotovalve® Cone Valves with hydraulic actuation, and one 24" Rotovalve® Cone Valve with an EIM electric actuator.
