We recently wrapped up a big one in Oxford and took a minute to enjoy a well-earned lunch with the crew. The team at Carolina Civilworks, along with our trade partners, put in a ton of hard work to bring this wastewater treatment plant upgrade across the finish line.

The project included a little bit of everything:

• • Rehabbing and upgrading both the duplex and triplex pump stations

• • Installing new submersible pumps

• • Pouring a new splitter box and tying in a new sludge line

• • Constructing a new electrical building with VFDs, PLCs, and about 3,000 feet of duct bank

• • Installing new disc filters for better filtration and efficiency

• • And making sure every upgrade worked together to boost reliability and flow control across the whole plant

We self-performed just about everything on this one—everything except the electrical work (shout out to Bitting Electric) and coatings (handled by CMT). Big thanks to CDM Smith for the engineering support, and to our other partners like Veolia and everyone else who made this project a success.

It’s always satisfying to wrap up a job knowing it’s built to last. Thanks to the City of Oxford for the opportunity—and thanks again to everyone who helped get it done.
