🏆  Congratulations to the Eastern Regional Infrastructure Project of Gwinnett County, Georgia on receiving an Envision Silver award for sustainable infrastructure! 🚰 The project addressed critical community needs related to water, sewer, and trail infrastructure. To support ongoing and anticipated population growth in the eastern portion of Gwinnett County, this project was designed to expand water and sewer capacity to support economic development and growth in the area. It also created an extensive trail system and provided exceptional recreational amenities for its residents. The project was led by the County’s Departments of Water Resources and Community Services and provided much-needed infrastructure for the eastern portion of the County. The scope of work included: ✅ Replacement and upsizing of five miles of water mains to meet current and future demand. ✅ Installation of six miles of new gravity sewer interceptor, a 14 MGD wastewater pump station, and seven miles of parallel force mains to serve future population growth, expand sewer service, and decommission existing wastewater pump stations. ✅ Construction of a five-mile trail system along the Apalachee River and a new trailhead located adjacent to the new pump station. ➡️ Read the announcement: https://lnkd.in/ednpAqtu Gwinnett County Government Freese and Nichols #sustainableinfrastructure #envisionaward #envisionplatinum #sustainablewater
