Under the $40m contract, Aecom will provide construction-management services associated with projects at the nitrogen removal facilities at the city’s 370-million-gallon-per-day Blue Plains advanced wastewater treatment plant.
The new contract follows previous $19.5m supplement to the company’s nitrogen removal program management contract at the same plant.
The construction projects involve enhanced nitrogen-removal facilities, centrate-treatment facilities, Phase II gravity-thickener upgrades, plant-wide fine-bubble aeration and several other smaller projects.
Aecom plans to complete the construction of the plants in 2016.
Aecom is a provider of professional technical and management support services to a broad range of markets, including transportation, facilities, environmental, energy, water and government.
