Slayden Completes $78M Expansion of Medford's Robert A. Duff Water Treatment Plant

Slayden Constructors, in partnership with Jacobs Engineering, recently completed construction of the Robert A. Duff Water Treatment Plant expansion for the Medford Water Commission. The $78 million project is a major infrastructure upgrade that will provide long-term benefits to Medford and the greater Rogue Valley.

The expansion increased the plant's treatment capacity from 45 MGD to 65 MGD, ensuring the system can keep pace with the region's growth. The project also introduced advanced filtration systems, a new reservoir, and a modern pump station. Built-in redundancies and seismic resiliency features were incorporated to strengthen reliability, even in the event of natural disasters.

This project represents a significant investment in the Rogue Valley's future, safeguarding public health and supporting continued development in southern Oregon. Slayden is proud to have partnered with Jacobs Engineering to deliver this critical upgrade and appreciates the trust of the Medford Water Commission in bringing the project to completion.
