Services
Water Reclamation Services
Our water reclamation solutions deliver cost-effective treatment systems for municipal and private clients. We specialize in biological treatment technologies including sequencing batch reactors and membrane bioreactors. Our engineers handle complete facility planning from site selection through permitting and construction, ensuring compliance with EPD and US Army Corps of Engineers requirements while optimizing system performance and operational efficiency.
Potable Water Treatment
We provide comprehensive potable water treatment solutions from raw water intake to distribution systems. Our services include filtration plant design, residual management, and elevated storage tank engineering. With expertise in regulatory compliance and hydraulic modeling, we deliver systems that meet current demands while accommodating future growth through strategic infrastructure planning and implementation.
GIS Solutions
Our GIS division offers centimeter-precision data collection and analysis for infrastructure management. Using ArcGIS software and Trimble equipment, we create actionable geospatial databases that support decision-making for municipalities and developers. Our solutions include asset management systems, permit mapping, and as-built documentation to optimize infrastructure planning and maintenance operations.
Pump Station Design
We design water and wastewater pump stations that balance current demand with future growth projections. Our engineers optimize system sizing and configuration while addressing unique site challenges. From concept through construction management, we deliver reliable pumping solutions that integrate seamlessly with existing infrastructure while maintaining regulatory compliance and operational efficiency.
Infrastructure Master Planning
Our master planning services combine population projections with hydraulic modeling to identify system deficiencies and plan capital improvements. Using WaterCAD software, we develop comprehensive plans for water distribution and sewer collection systems that address both immediate needs and long-term growth. This strategic approach helps clients avoid piecemeal development while ensuring system reliability and regulatory compliance.
