Allentown Wastewater Treatment Project
The Borough of Allentown, New Jersey, a quaint suburban community about midway between New York City and Philadelphia, wanted to modernize its crumbling municipal wastewater treatment plant to meet state requirements and reduce operating costs. As a project requirement, the town asked that the declining plant remained in service during reconstruction. Most importantly, the project needed to fit the economic constraints of this small, independent municipality with fixed assistance from the New Jersey Clean Water State Revolving Fund.
