8 Windsor Utilities Commission A.H. Weeks Water Treatment Plant This state-of-the-art Water Treatment Facility was commissioned in In 2001, the plant was upgraded to use Ozone as the primary disinfectant. The plant has a maximum capacity of 349 million litres of water per day. It requires 29 employees to operate the plant 24 hours/day, 365 days a year A.J. Brian Pumping Station Located across from the A.H. Weeks Treatment Plant, this pumping station was built in Low lift pumps draw water from the river to the A.H Weeks Treatment Plant and in turn, high lift pumps move the treated water to the distribution system. J.F. Cook Reservoir Pumping Station This facility was built in 1973 on Howard Ave. in the south end of the city. It was designed to provide supplemental storage and additional pressure to serve the South Windsor and LaSalle distribution systems. The reservoir stores up to 45 million litres of water.
