Why They Chose Romtec Utilities
Housing developments sometimes require years of engineering, submitting, and filing paperwork before the development can even begin. Starting in 2006, Romtec Utilities worked with Lennar Communities, a national home builder, and Smith Tech USA (Civil E.) to design and supply this wastewater lift station. Kern Pacific Construction Company (GC) installed the lift station in 2007, but the lift station was not immediately started-up. In 2010, Romtec Utilities was requested to start-up the lift station. With expert documentation, Romtec Utilities was able to evaluate the condition of the lift station and all its specified components and create a path to start-up. After clearing up a few maintenance issues, the lift station was started up, and the development moved forward.
