Arsenic Removal Treatment Plant

Construction Management is a discipline and management system specifically created to promote the successful execution of capital projects for owners. The skill-set required to effectively execute capital projects is diverse. Farr West Engineering employs several experienced construction managers and inspectors.

Our well-qualified construction managers and engineers have experience with more complicated construction related issues, such as dispute resolution, change order negotiation, interpretation of contract documents, liquidated damages, prevailing wage issues, and requirements that are specific to State and federal funding sources.

Farr West's inspectors and construction managers have the knowledge and ability to:

  • Be knowledgeable about the major issues concerning contract law.
  • Schedule, obtain quality from, and effectively work with contractors.
  • Be able to read and interpret contract plans, specifications and contract documents.
  • Be able to communicate effectively with engineers concerning engineering principles and practices.
  • Accurately document construction activities.

Project Highlight: Silver Springs Mutual Water Company Arsenic Removal Treatment Plant

Farr West designed a new water treatment facility for the Silver Springs Mutual Water Company. The facility was designed to remove arsenic from the drinking water supply in order to meet new federal standards, and had a construction cost of approximately $3,000,000. A coagulation/filtration treatment technology was utilized to remove the arsenic. Farr West provided construction management and full-time construction inspection throughout the entire project. The construction manager and inspector worked with the owner and contractor to deliver a quality project on time and within the budget.
