Distribution & Collection

We design components and elements of existing and new systems for campuses, municipalities, and utility clients. We replace, relocate, or extend infrastructure and we have demonstrated a strength in the rehabilitation design of conveyance and collection systems. With several senior staff possessing nearly 40 years of experience each, we have the expertise to tackle extremely complicated systems and accommodate our clients’ needs.

Understanding clients’ needs and the capabilities of the existing systems we are connecting to and or extending, are perhaps the two most important keys to designing facilities that best serve our client and communities served. We meet with our clients from the start of tasks to ensure our understanding of their needs. We welcome our clients to participate in initial field investigations. Our Subsurface Utility Engineering group, survey teams and record research provide additional information regarding the existing systems.

Our experience has taught us that permitting can, at times, take longer than the design did, but we know not only how to account for the complications involved in the process, but how to expedite permitting to eliminate delays.

Furthermore, we coordinate with other utilities and road authorities as necessary to minimize disruption to the project’s community. We develop detailed Maintenance of Traffic plans for complex work zone applications to assist contractors in providing a quality and safe MOT set-up.

Though the finished water and sewer pipeline usually end up underground and unseen, we take pride in designing well-functioning, long-lasting infrastructure that allows users to forget it is there.
