Client: Town of Laurel, Delaware
Year Completed: 2018
Engineer: George, Miles and Buhr, LLC, Architects/Engineers, Salisbury, Maryland

Valley Proteins’ project for a wastewater treatment systems upgrade involved the addition of two (2) slot injector aeration and mixing systems with hybrid blowers in an aeration tank to expand and improve the treatment operations. Equipment was delivered late September/early October 2018. M2 poured pads for the new equipment, set equipment in place, managed an electrical subcontractor for powering the units, and was ready to install piping from the equipment to the tank. M2 recognized some structural deficiencies with the piping support and worked with the engineer and owner to revise the scope to include an improved support system without compromising the integrity of the aeration tank. After one complete treatment system was ready, startup was begun and successfully completed. M2 completed the 2^nd system after the initial system was in full operations. Start up and testing began on December 20, 2018 on the final system and was successful. Both systems are in operation and providing the additional treatment anticipated by the owner.

Client: City of Dover, Delaware
Year Completed: 2017
Engineer: Pennoni Associates, Inc.

This project for the City of Dover, DE involved the rehabilitation and replacement of an existing pump station.  The challenge on this project was bypassing the flow of the pump station from three separate influent pipes.  M2 Construction worked with the City of Dover to coordinate and install a temporary manhole to set up the bypass functions from in order to alleviate disruption in service to the community.  With the bypass manhole installed, M2 started with selective demolition and proceeded to the lining of the existing wet well.  After the lining was complete the new pump station was installed and tested.  The pump station went online in December 2017 and then the bypass manhole was removed so that the property could be restored to its original state.

Client: City of Milford, Sussex County, Delaware
Year Completed: 2017
Engineer: Davis, Bowen and Friedel, Inc.

This pump station project for the City of Milford involved a complete rehabilitation of the entire existing station while adding new processes to make the new station more efficient.  Specifically, M2 Construction installed all new pumps and controls, rehabilitated and lined the existing wetwell, installed a new manhole for access, installed a new odor control process, added HVAC, replaced the emergency generator and revised the process to be more effective.  The challenge on this project was that the entire flow of the pump station needed to be bypass pumped around the pumpstation for the duration of construction. The challenge involved tight coordination with the owner, engineer and all vendors to make sure the pump station was only out of service for the time necessary to complete construction.  The pump station was put back online with all new mechanical equipment in July 2017.

Client: Brodhead Creek Regional Authority
Year Completed: 2017
Engineer: RKR Hess, a division of UTRS, Inc.

This booster pump station installation for the Brodhead Creek Regional Authority had its own unique construction related challenges.  The project entailed installation of a new booster pump station that would replace the existing station and allow the existing station to be used a backup for the constant water needs in the community.  The new station increases the capacity and efficiency of flow to the region.  The project involved installation of a new masonry block building to house the new 50 HP vertical turbine pumps.  There are hatches in the roof for future access and maintenance of the pumps.  Along with the pump station there was new yard piping to tie the new pumps into the existing tank and water distribution system.  There were new security measures installed as well as new HVAC and controls systems.  This water booster pump station went online in January 2018.
