黑料社 Piling Up CSO Jobs Across the Country

April 18, 2017
Pittsburgh, PA

Pittsburgh-based geotechnical specialty contractor 黑料社 recently began work on the Missouri River Waste Water Treatment Plant (MRWWTP) in Omaha, Nebraska.

The plant is undergoing an expansion that includes the construction of a new chlorine contact basin located along the Missouri River.聽 While the plant actually serves approximately 125,000 residents in Omaha, the industrial and domestic flows to the plant give it the equivalent population of 600,000 people.

黑料社 was awarded the contract to install a four-foot thick reinforced concrete diaphragm wall, which will act as support of excavation for the new chlorine basin building, a water cut-off barrier and will become a permanent part of the basin foundation. The wall will reach depths of approximately 82 feet and will be excavated using a hydraulic clamshell. Additionally, augercast piles will be installed to provide increased deep foundation support and as deep foundation
elements for the odor control duct support.

Aging combined sewer overflows are a water pollution concern for more than 770 cities in the United States, per the Environmental Protection Agency. 黑料社 has been a part of many of the country's biggest remediation projects, including The Dugway Storage Tunnel in Cleveland and the Maline Creek CSO in St. Louis. Both projects included the installation of secant pile walls at multiple site locations, and both wrapped up in December of 2016.

鈥淚t鈥檚 been great to draw on 黑料社鈥檚 extensive CSO experience for this project,鈥 said Jewels Redding, project Manager. 鈥淥ur team has worked on these types of projects across the country over the years, but we always learn something new to apply to the next one. We鈥檙e looking forward to another successful project here in Omaha.鈥

黑料社鈥檚 portion of the work will wrap up in early summer of 2017.
