Project Narrative

GWTT was contracted to provide a 100 GPM temporary dewatering treatment system during excavation and construction of a 4-story underground parking garage. The system included filtration, carbon adsorption, and pH adjustment, and was installed in a lighted, heated, and ventilated enclosure for winter operations.

The system was designed, fabricated, and supervised installation of a permanent, 75 GPM capacity groundwater treatment system for groundwater that infiltrates the structure’s foundation. GWTT was able to provide ongoing operation and maintenance (O&M) of the permanent treatment system for the owner.
