Sapphire Beach Resort, St. Thomas

Sapphire Beach Resort, St. Thomas
Water and Wastewater Treatment Plants

In January 2000, TSG completed the design, fabrication and construction of an 80,000-gallon per day seawater reverse osmosis water plant at the Sapphire Beach Resort on St. Thomas, USVI. This project included an upgrade of the seawater intake structure and was undertaken on a "fast track" basis to assure the resort had an adequate potable water supply for its prime 2000 season. TSG erected the entire water treatment plant on site and placed it into operation in 8 days. TSG owns and operates this desalination plant.

To better serve the needs of the local water trucking industry, TSG designed and constructed the first automated water fill station in the USVI at the Sapphire Beach facility. This station utilizes an automated card reader to dispense pure drinking water at a rate of 500 gallons per minute.

To reduce the demand for potable water, TSG also assumed operation and renovated the existing wastewater treatment plant at Sapphire to provide irrigation quality effluent.

"When I took over as General Manager at Sapphire Beach Resort &
Marina, TSG had been taking care of our fresh water production and
wastewater for over one year. Being the new General Manager, I was anxious
to identify those areas that needed my immediate attention - and TSG was
not one of them! This has remained true in my almost three years
relationship with them. The TSG professionals have kept our water plant
producing crystal clear water, and kept an aging wastewater plant
functioning perfectly. I have every confidence in their ability to
manage this vital part of our operation, and I look forward to continued
association with them."

John W. Moorhead, General Manager
