Professional Civil Engineering Services in Georgia
Established in 1986, we are a 100% employee-owned civil and environmental engineering firm with over three decades of experience serving public and private clients across Georgia. Our expertise spans the full lifecycle of infrastructure projects, from initial planning and design to construction administration and final documentation. Specializing in potable water production, water reclamation facilities, and utility system design, we prioritize on-site technical support to ensure every project meets client needs while adhering to the highest professional standards. Our team actively engages with community stakeholders to address challenges associated with water and wastewater infrastructure, whether managing multi-million-dollar treatment facilities or implementing localized water main replacements. With a commitment to accountability and responsiveness, we leverage advanced technologies like GIS modeling and hydraulic analysis to optimize system performance. Our engineers possess extensive experience working alongside regulatory agencies, including the Army Corps of Engineers and Georgia Department of Natural Resources, to secure necessary permits and ensure compliance with environmental requirements.From raw water intake systems to elevated storage tanks, our comprehensive approach to project delivery emphasizes cost-effectiveness, reliability, and long-term sustainability. This technical proficiency, combined with our deep-rooted presence in metro-Atlanta for over 30 years, enables us to deliver complex infrastructure projects on schedule and within budget. Our construction management services include full-time field inspections to guarantee proper execution, while in-house surveying capabilities ensure installation precision. By maintaining continuous involvement from project inception through completion, we establish ourselves as trusted partners in developing practical engineering solutions for both municipal and private sector clients.

Services
Engineering Design
Our engineering design services cover complete water infrastructure projects from concept through construction. We specialize in municipal water treatment plants, sewer mains, and hydraulic modeling using WaterCAD software. With over 30 years of experience, our team creates customized solutions that consider both current demands and future growth projections while ensuring compliance with all regulatory requirements.
Water Reclamation
We deliver comprehensive water reclamation solutions including facility planning, permitting, and construction management. Our engineers design systems utilizing sequencing batch reactors, oxidation ditches, and membrane bioreactors to meet various flow requirements from 0.10 MGD to 8.0 MGD. We also prepare environmental documentation and assist with funding applications to support project implementation.
Potable Water Treatment
Our potable water treatment services encompass complete facility design and rehabilitation projects. We develop raw water intakes, filtration systems, and distribution networks up to 100 MGD capacity. Our engineers work closely with agencies like the Army Corps of Engineers to ensure water supply infrastructure meets stringent quality standards while maintaining operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
GIS Solutions
Geographic Information System solutions support both municipal and private sector clients through advanced data collection and analysis. Our Trimble equipment captures centimeter-grade positioning data while ArcGIS software enables effective management of infrastructure assets. We create detailed maps for permitting, develop geospatial databases, and provide spatial analysis to optimize utility system planning and maintenance.
Master Planning
We develop comprehensive water and sewer master plans incorporating population projections, peak flow analysis, and system modeling. Our strategic planning addresses capital improvement needs, identifies infrastructure deficiencies, and creates phased implementation strategies. This forward-looking approach ensures utility systems can accommodate growth while maintaining service reliability through both normal operations and emergency conditions.
