Site work for a water / sewer project in Wanatah, Indiana. Completed plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

The project consists of improvements to the Wanatah Wastewater Treatment Plant, including the construction of a new wastewater treatment system with features such as an influent screen, washer compactor, mixing/equalization tank, aeration tank, clarifier, aerobic digester, and sludge bagging system. The Owner will directly purchase specific equipment items such as the static screen, surge pumps and controls, blowers and associated controls, aeration diffusers, circular clarifier, waste sludge pump and control, flow meter, slide gate, and telescopic valve. The Contractor is responsible for installing this equipment and any ancillary items not included with the equipment.
