Case Studies

Master Lift Station 13A in Manatee County, FL was in need of rehabilitation due to heavy deterioration of its walls and high levels of debris that was causing the overuse of pumps.

The 52-inch storm sewer was installed in the early 1900s. The line takes in all of the storm water for the south side of the city. The sewer is 20 feet deep and runs along railroad tracks, then discharges into the Manistee River.

The existing sewer to be rehabilitated was approximately 80 years old and was located 20 ft. below ground in Evanston, Illinois, a northern suburb of Chicago. The sewer started at a river edge overflow chamber in a school parking lot.

The galvanized corrugated vertical inflow stand pipe on the golf course 6 acre pond was deteriorated badly.  The holes in the pipe were significant and caused the pond level to be over 3 feet below normal pond elevation.
