Gilder Creek, SC Wastewater Treatment Plant
On this $43 million “tight site,” Crowder had to work around an operating plant to build blower and electrical buildings, a grit facility, primary and secondary clarifiers, aeration basins, as well as solids handling structures and instrumentation and control systems.

New Bern, NC Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrade
Based on superior safety performance, this $18.7 million project was selected to be an OSHA Building STARR Project by the NC Department of Labor. Crowder self-performed work on 89% of the work, including biological nutrient reduction basins and electrical work for three new power zone centers with associated variable frequency drives, automatic transfer switches, generators, and controls.

Lake Gaston, NC Water Supply Facility
A $13 million project that included a 60 MGD pump station approximately 150’ x 60’ in a 50’ deep shaft. Installation involved open-cut, sub-aqueous, excavation inside a turbidity curtain and 9,000 feet of 60” pipeline.

Florence, SC Pee Dee River Water Treatment Plant
Crowder constructed a $30.7 million grass roots 24 MGD automated water treatment plant with an intake and raw water pump station. This project presented many challenges including the 55’ diameter raw water pump station with a 36’ deep shaft which was excavated using a circular steel sheeting cofferdam. Two 30” and one 36” headers were bored and jacked from the pump station out to the intake structure. Sediment was controlled using surface socks and turbidity booms. Process facilities entailed a combination rapid mix, flocculation, settling and filter structure, administration building, high service pump station, and a clearwell.
