The Village needed to extend sanitary sewer service to a previously unserved area, laying the groundwork for future development and protecting public health. We stepped in to lead the design and delivery of a new sanitary sewer corridor that would serve properties both within and beyond. The purpose was to engineer a resilient system that meets regulatory standards, minimizes disruption, and prepares the community for growth.

KEY CONTRIBUTIONS:

Engineering for Expansion
We designed and oversaw the installation of 1,500 linear feet of 12-inch sanitary sewer pipe, placed at depths ranging from 9 to 23 feet to accommodate future service needs and challenging site conditions.

Comprehensive Utility Planning
We provided full-service support, including tributary service area calculations, corridor alignment evaluations, topographic and utility surveys, detailed design, permitting, cost estimating, easement acquisition, bid administration, construction oversight, and resident project representation.
Navigating Site Constraints
With the project located near a newly constructed fire station, we implemented jacking and boring techniques to avoid disruption and maintain emergency access. We also addressed groundwater challenges from a nearby river and sandy soils by designing and managing extensive dewatering systems during construction.
Meeting Regulatory Standards
We designed the project to meet Ohio EPA criteria, referencing City of Columbus CMS and supplementing with Village of Granville construction standards to ensure compliance and consistency.

Delivering a Future-Ready Solution
Our work ensures the Village is prepared to serve future development efficiently and safely—extending infrastructure with foresight and precision.
