  • Underwater Pipelines
    How does liquid sludge get from Winthrop to Quincy for dewatering, drying and conversion to Class A biosolids? The MWRA Deer Island Treatment Plant ("DITP") is located near Winthrop, Massachusetts, and the Biosolids Processing Facility ("BPF") is located in Quincy, a distance of approximately 7 miles. In the early years of the BPF project, liquid sludge was loaded at DITP onto barges that NEFCO towed across Boston Harbor to Quincy. The barges served from 1991 through 2005. BPF wastewater, consisting principally of dewatering effluent (centrate) flowed through local sewers to an aging primary treatment plant at Nut Island, also in Quincy. As MWRA’s Boston Harbor Cleanup project progressed, underground sludge pipelines to the BPF were constructed in two phases. The sludge pipes were included in two wastewater tunnel projects. Wastewater was routed from new headworks at Nut Island to a new pump station at DITP. The five- mile-long, deep rock Inter-Island Tunnel was constructed to carry this wastewater. When this tunnel was constructed, dual 14 inch pipes were cast into its concrete lining to convey liquid sludge in the reverse direction. This tunnel and the twin sludge pipelines were completed in 1998. The history of the MWRA sewer system can be found on the MWRA web site: http://www.mwra.state.ma.us/03sewer/html/sewhist.htm The next phase of sludge piping was as part of the Braintree-Weymouth Interceptor project. This tunnel carries sewage towards Nut Island and ultimately to DITP. The project also extended the twin sludge pipelines to the Braintree-Weymouth pump station.

  • Sculptors Gallery Proudly Hosts “34,” a Group Exhibition Curated by Liz Devlin of FLUX
    !"#$"% #&'()$"*# +,((-*. !"#$%&'"(!) *++, 486 Harrison Ave, Boston,."t ! XXXCPTUPOTDVMQUPSTDPNtCPTUPOTDVMQUPST!ZBIPPDPN FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 7, 2015 Exhibition Title: 34 Exhibition Dates: July 22 – August 16, 2015 Artists’ Reception: July 26 from 3 – 5 pm SOWA First Friday Reception: August 7 from 5 – 8 pm Gallery Hours: Wed. – Sun. from 12 – 6 pm (Boston, MA): As a part of the Isles Arts Initiative, a summer long public art series on the Boston Harbor Islands and in venues across Boston, the Boston Sculptors Gallery proudly hosts “34,” a group exhibition curated by Liz Devlin of FLUX. Boston Sculptors Gallery will showcase work inspired by the intrinsic beauty and divergent tales of the Boston Harbor Islands National and State Park. “34” is a group exhibition that includes 34 regional artists each responding to one of the 34 Boston Harbor Islands. Each imaginative work will be accompanied by a placard, featuring text from Chris Klein’s Discovering the Boston Harbor Islands, which outlines a brief history of the particular island and will provide additional context for the work itself. The exhibition serves as a physical beacon on land that will be in conversation with the artwork on the harbor. Artists’ work will educate and inspire visitors, sharing unique perspectives and visionary iconography that will demonstrate why the islands’ history is among the most fascinating in our region. About Boston Sculptors: Founded in 1992, Boston Sculptors Gallery is an artist-run organization that presents and promotes innovative, challenging sculpture and installations. It is the only sculptors organization in the United States that maintains its own exhibition space. The organization has presented exhibitions of its sculptors in other venues and countries and occasionally invites Curators to present exhibitions in its gallery in Boston’s South End.
