144th St Lift Station & Force Main

340 NE 144th St, SMITHVILLE, MO64089

Bid was awarded to EPIC Concrete Construction Inc.

Construction began June 2, 2025.

The 144th Lift Station is a planned pump station that will be located along 144th Street just east of Highway 169. With an updated system of gravity sewers, this pump station will collect wastewater from the surrounding area and convey the flow to the wastewater treatment plant by way of the South Force Main. The addition of this pump station, and associated piping, will consolidate the flows from multiple existing pump stations into a single route, allowing Diversified Metal, McDonalds, Platte Valley Bank, and Hills of Shannon pump stations to be decommissioned. This pump station will be sized to allow for additional capacity in the area and will provide the needed capacity to provide for future developments. The construction will include a new lift station, pumps, and a SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system.

Update 9/16/26: 

The 144th Street Pump Station is now operational, and the Hills of Shannon Pump Station has been taken offline. Epic will complete seeding / mulching at 144th PS in October 2026.

The chemical feed system at Hills of Shannon remains on hold while the odor control tank is being downsized. We will provide additional updates as this work progresses.
