Collection, treatment and conveyance of water, wastewater and stormwater involves complex facilities often requiring many different types of structures.

Whether addressing the need for a new structure or evaluating an existing one for structural improvements, the wide range of structures encompasses reservoirs, pump stations, lift stations, aeration basins, clarifiers, digesters, chemical feed facilities, pumping and diversion structures, stormwater treatment facilities, levee dams, trash racks, headworks, administration and operations buildings, and other structural elements that comprise treatment plants.

We view ourselves as a partner with each agency we work with, providing them with recommendations and corresponding risks and costs, such that they can make informed decisions.
