Following is a list of projects of similar scope with which Hurst-Rosche has been involved including a brief description of each project. Client references for any particular project can be provided upon request.

Facilities Plans, Evaluations, Evaluation Studies

Facilities plans for the treatment and collection of wastewater for various communities have been completed by Hurst-Rosche. The facilities plans included studies to determine the conditions of the existing system along with recommendations for rehabilitation and reduction of wastewater flow by eliminating excess storm water. The facilities plans analyze alternatives to determine the most cost-effective solution based on present value. Cost estimates for construction operation and maintenance were included for each alternative.

Facilities plans were completed for the following communities:

  • Alorton-Centreville
  • East St. Louis
  • Atalissa, Iowa
  • Hillsboro
  • Donnellson
  • Matherville
  • Raymond
  • Cahokia
  • St. Elmo
  • Sauget
  • Commonfields of Cahokia



Water Projects

ADGPTV Water Commission
Treatment systems evaluation and capital improvement feasibility study

Study all treatment processes including raw water supply (impoundment) for treatment extensions, increased capacity, upgrade potential and related costs. The distribution system was also reviewed in terms of conveyance limits, pumping and telemetry controls. A three million dollar capital program was initiated as a result of this study as well as a treatment plant increased capacity rating by EPA.

Commonfields of Cahokia
Reroute sanitary sewer
Cahokia, IL

Prepared plans and specifications for the rerouting of 500 lineal feet of existing sanitary sewers for the purpose of eliminating an existing lift station.
