WATER & WASTEWATER TREATMENT

MC Squared provides specialized geotechnical and materials testing services for water and wastewater infrastructure projects. Our expertise supports the development of reservoirs, treatment facilities, pump stations, and distribution systems, ensuring structural integrity and long-term performance under varying environmental conditions.

We prioritize cost-effective, sustainable solutions that enhance water quality, protect public health, and improve system reliability. Our team collaborates with municipalities, utilities, and engineering firms to optimize designs, mitigate risks, and support regulatory compliance throughout the project lifecycle.

Through advanced testing methodologies and a deep understanding of subsurface conditions, we help deliver resilient infrastructure that efficiently manages water resources and withstands future demand.

WATER & WASTEWATER PROJECTS

WATER & WASTEWATER
PROJECTS

Southeast County Water Reclamation Facility, Hillsborough County, Florida

Provided subsurface investigations and associated design recommendations for the expansion of the facility from 4.5 to 12 MGD. Components of the project included new headworks, bioreactors, clarifiers, filters, reject storage tanks, electrical buildings and pump stations. Provided materials testing of soils, concrete and asphalt during construction phase.

Falkenburg Advanced Water Treatment Plant, Hillsborough County, Florida

Provided subsurface investigations and associated recommendations for the expansion of this facility from 9 to 12 MGD. Components of the project included new headworks, clarifier, new pump station and reject storage tanks. Provided materials testing of soils, concrete and asphalt during construction phase. Construction costs $30 million.

Caloosahatchee River West Basin Storage Reservoir (C-43 WBSR)

Developed by C-43 Water Management Builders for the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the C-43 West Basin Storage Reservoir is a 170,000-acre-foot infrastructure project designed to store excess freshwater from the Caloosahatchee River, stabilize salinity levels, and prevent algal blooms. MC Squared provided critical laboratory management, construction materials testing, and quality control, ensuring compliance with USACE standards. Our contributions—including testing 22 million cubic yards of embankment, 110,000 tons of soil-cement armoring, and 19 miles of soil-bentonite cutoff wall—have helped ensure the reservoir’s durability, reliability, and long-term impact on Florida’s water resources and communities.

Pump Station 018, Pinellas County, Florida

Provided geotechnical engineering services to support the design of a new Pump Station and approximately 1000 LF of force main with 3 feet of cover in Pinellas County, Florida.

Various Phases of the Quarles Plant Cobb County, Georgia

Provided geotechnical exploration, laboratory testing and engineering foundation recommendations for the expansion at the James E. Quarles Water Treatment Plant.We also provided construction materials testing and inspection services and provide foundation consulting services and recommendations for the excavation and installations of the foundations. MC Squared, Inc. evaluated the viability of the existing concrete tanks to be re-used as part of the rehabilitation of the plant Performed Ultrasonic Assessment of the concrete tank using a V-Meter.

City of Atlanta Combined Sewer Outflow, Atlanta, Georgia

Provided subsurface investigations and associated recommendations for this project which was intended to improve the water quality of the effluent from the Combined Sewer Outfall (CSO) system of the Stockade sub-basin in southeast Atlanta. The plan included the design of approximately 52,000 LF of new sanitary sewer and 11,000 LF of new storm sewers including tunneling under I-20.
