Wastewater Treatment and Collection

Richard P. Arber Associates staff has extensive experience with the completion of planning, design and construction administration of wastewater and reuse water systems. Designs have included small collection and treatment systems including remotely located septic tanks followed by recirculating sand filters and subsurface disposal through large nutrient removal using the BNR process followed by filtration prior to reuse distribution. New and advanced treatment technologies coupled with odor control facilities are becoming the standard of the industry.

Additionally, as collection lines age, replacement and rehabilitation of these lines may be required. Further, as service areas are expanded and developed, new lines will be required. Many existing lines are located in developed areas and will result in alternative construction methods including: Lining, pipe bursting and directional drilling.
