Infrastructure throughout Humboldt Industrial Park was designed specifically to support the needs of its tenants.  Utilities stretch to existing curbs so developers don’t have to extend lines great distances or dig under the road to reach them.  A heavy rail system was installed so that virtually any industry type can be served.  Roads were built to highway specifications, with smooth ingress and egress from State Route 924.

 

Water

CAN DO Inc. supplies quality water throughout the park in 12- and 16-inch ductile iron mains at pressures and flow rates suitable for heavy industrial use.

Fire protection is aided by four 1-million gallon standpipes, which ride on the system.

Humboldt Industrial Park also features an interconnection with the Hazleton City Authority which provides additional water capacity to supplement the current system.

Companies with significant water usage requirements may also connect directly to the Hazleton City Authority which has a larger water system with ample capacity.
