We were also able to combine three phases into one to save utility customers additional future costs.”
Guests attending the open house will have the opportunity to not only view the improved facility, but also have the opportunity to ask questions of the wastewater staff.
Involved in the construction process were Commonwealth Engineers, Baker Tilly, HRP Construction Inc., BL Anderson Co. Inc., H.P. Thompson Co., Thieneman Construction Inc., Ice Miller, LLP, Toric Engineering and CE Solutions Inc.
