Booster Pump Station
Booster pump stations play a vital role in water distribution systems and are strategically placed in key locations to ensure constant pressure and adequate water flow is supplied to end users. These stations are vital to daily life by delivering fresh drinking water to your homes.
MGC has many years of experience in constructing pump stations of all shapes and sizes. From booster pump stations with vertical turbine pumps to horizontal split case centrifugal pumps, MGC has well rounded knowledge in all types of booster pump station configurations. MGC constructs and manages all aspects of booster pump stations from NTP through final completion. Including all structural, mechanical, and electrical components of the project. Before the stations are put into service, we go through an extensive startup/testing process to ensure the system is running at peak performance to deliver the maximum amount of water to the system in the most efficient way. MGC knows how important these facilities are and takes deep pride in our ability to perfect their construction in a timely manner.
By leveraging our experience with value engineering and constructability reviews, we can deliver the project at lower cost, a faster pace, and still provide maximum functionality of the facility.

Lift Station
Lift Stations are necessary in low areas of land, or where pipe depths underground become excessive, and allow the wastewater to be lifted to a higher elevation to flow by gravity or be pumped under pressure to a treatment plant or other facility. MGC provides expert services for both Lift Station rehabilitation and new construction.
Our rehabilitation experience includes design assistance and setting up and maintaining bypass pumping operations to keep the wastewater flowing for the duration of the work. Once we have the bypass in place, we begin the rehabilitation process that can include cleaning and replacing the wet wells, hatches, and associated piping, removing, and replacing corrosion coatings, removing and replacing odor control systems, etc. During this process we provide all necessary support and construction resources to restore the system to functionality.
For new construction, we excel in providing pre-construction services, including design review, and value engineering, to achieve the highest quality results. Our expertise includes the construction of wet wells, pump systems, force mains, odor control systems, chemical systems, yard piping, and all necessary appurtenances. We hold ourselves to the highest standards and ensure minimal impact to those within the service area or vicinity of the site.

Odor Control
An Odor Control System is utilized to mitigate a hazardous ambient air quality condition. Basically, it’s used to move negative quality air to a device/system that removes the hazardous/offensive contaminates and then return the cleaned air to the atmosphere. We have experience with many types and configurations of Odor Control Systems, most systems share many common components such fans, ductwork, dampers, pumps, piping, and scrubbers. The point of mitigation at which odor causing contaminates, such as hydrogen sulfide/H2S, are addressed is what differentiates one type of Odor Control System from another. In the water industry, most Odor Control Systems can be divided into one of three treatment style categories: Adsorption, Chemical Treatment and/or Biological Treatment.
MGC has prior successful installation and start-up/commissioning experience with each type of Odor Control System. We can provide you with a system that meets your needs and expectations. We also have resources available to help you rehabilitate an existing Odor Control System if that suits your needs.

Water Reuse
MGC has been involved with advanced water treatment systems for many years. However, with the need for water in drought-stricken areas combined with advancing technologies, water reuse infrastructure is becoming more commonplace in the water and wastewater industry. MGC has been building and maintaining wastewater treatment plants in several cities that treat water for reuse purposes. Here are some types of projects MGC has constructed that include water reuse efforts:
- Vadose Zone Recharge Wells – This technology and process has been around for some time; where effluent water is pumped back into the aquifer for storage and future use by production wells.
- Reclaimed Water Systems – Facilities produce reclaimed water that is distributed to parks and golf courses for irrigation purposes.
These systems facilitate water conservation, which leads to not only cost savings for both the treatment facilities and the end users, but also helps to secure future water supplies for times of scarcity. MGC is excited to evolve with water reuse technologies and help build for the future.

Disinfection
With both water and wastewater, treatment through disinfection is critical to providing a safe product.
MGC has been a part of many water treatment projects involving the installation of disinfection systems and is well versed in various methods of disinfection. Chlorination, sometimes combined with dechlorination, is the most common type of disinfection in our industry and we excel in the installation of each. Less common, but still within MGC’s expertise, are ultraviolet radiation and ozone systems. Like our clients, all disinfection methods are unique and implemented based on the characteristics of the existing system.
Whether it is treated wastewater, ultimately ending its journey into a local waterway, or disinfected potable water ending in a drinking glass, MGC is doing its part to ensure it is safe.
