Water and Sewerage Master Plan Development

Strategic planning for infrastructure improvements

Civil Engineering Consultants provides water and wastewater engineering and master planning for collection, treatment and distribution.

We also offer expert support for public involvement and community outreach related to projects affecting homeowners, landowners and commercial interests. CEC’s civil engineering consultants are available 24/7 to speak with stakeholders about project impacts and mitigation strategies.

 

Water Master Planning & Modeling

Civil Engineering Consultants creates community system plans and models using population projections and peak flow conditions to stress the system and identify potential deficiencies. Our water supply system engineers use WaterCAD software for all modeling efforts.

Sewer Master Planning & Modeling

Civil Engineering Consultants analyzes existing and future land uses and applies unit flows for each land use to determine projected flows for the drainage basin. Pump station and collection system requirements are provided on the master plan map, allowing the system owner and proposed developers to quickly identify the system improvements required to provide sewer within the service area. When a master plan document is approved by the system owner, piecemeal development of the sewerage infrastructure is more easily avoided.
