Wilmington, NC – James A Loughlin WWTP Expansion
Crowder is completing an expansion of the City of Wilmington’s 8 MGD WWTP to a 16 MGD plant.  Maintaining the plants operability at all times throughout the construction project was of primary importance to the City.  This was accomplished by identifying major activities that could impact plant operations.  Communication, coordination and planned sequencing were critical components to the success achieved.  Crowder self-performed the concrete, piping, and all electrical.  The electrical contract was significant, because service was provided for the new facility as well as complete new service to the existing plant.  An entire power scheme for the plant from transformers through substations was included in the contract.
