Manion Engineering | Sample Projects:

City of Kalispell, | Westside Sewer Interceptor Project

Manion Engineering provides multidiscipline design and construction management for the City of Kalispell’s West Side Sewer Interceptor Project. This 20 million dollar upgrade included new gravity interceptor piping up to thirty inches (30″) in diameter, transmission force main piping, lift station, and back-up power generation. The Project included collection piping up to thirty (30″) in diameter, a lift station, and a force main. The largest casing placed on the Project was 48″ diameter under US HWY No. 2. The maximum trench depth was thirty feet (30′), along with heavy dewatering in West Spring Creek and Two Mile Drive areas.

Evergreen Water & Sewer District | Infiltration & Inflow (I&I) Reduction (PER)

Manion Engineering provides the Evergreen Water & Sewer District (District) engineering services. The necessary work includes field services for writing a preliminary engineering report due to infiltration and inflow (I&I). The report aims to help reduce groundwater entering the collection facilities to save on pumping and treatment costs. The District operates a wastewater step facility divided into twenty-five separate collection areas. Each area collects wastewater from customers pumped to the next downstream collection area until the wastewater reaches lift station no. 19 (LS#19). Once the wet well within LS#19 is at sufficient elevation, the pumps initiate and pump the mixture of collected wastewater to Kalispell’s AWWTP under an agreement for treatment purposes. See the PER for additional details.

Well No. 5 Development Project

Manion Engineering manages the design (which includes hydrogeology, survey, mechanical, electrical and civil engineering) and construction for  Well No. (5) Development Project.  This $2.5 Million Dollar project includes the development of a new (2,000 gpm) well and the construction of a new well house;  telemetry system; chlorination; pumping equipment and (1.5) miles worth of water main to connect to the City’s existing drinking water infrastructure.

City of Kalispell | Westside Sewer Interceptor Project (Sewer Modeling)

Provides sewer modeling assistance for the multidiscipline design and construction management for the City of Kalispell’s West Side Sewer Interceptor Project.  This 20 million dollar upgrade included new gravity interceptor piping up to thirty inches (30″) in diameter, transmission force main piping, lift station, and back-up power generation. This necessary upgrade is meant to collect wastewater from as far north as Church Drive, including the west side of Kalispell, and convey it to the treatment plant. This Interceptor is truly a 100-year design.

City of Dillon, Telemetry System Improvement Project | Wells & Reservoirs

Manion Engineering provides design and construction services for the necessary Telemetry System Improvement Project. This Project updates Dillon’s existing well(s), reservoirs, and central panel within City Hall.  The $262,000 retrofit design included new mag-meters at each well house for flow pacing. Also, each reservoir was upgraded with ultrasonic-level elements and telemetry. The operational staff can access the system at any given time through the main panel at the city hall, at each well site and tank, or on their cell phones along with the wastewater treatment plant.

City of Dillon, Manhole Replacement Project Phase II, Dillon, Montana

Manion Engineering designs and constructs a second  Manhole Replacement Project for the City of Dillon. This $100,000 Project includes designing and replacing manholes, sewer mains, and sanitary services. The purpose of the replacements was to keep groundwater from entering the collection system and replace manholes that were structurally unsound.   Also included was the necessary design to reduce groundwater infiltration and inflow (I&I) from the collection system utilizing cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) through trenchless technologies.

Bio-Solids Management Project

Manion Engineering provides multi-discipline design and construction management for the City of Dillon’s WWTP Phase I Bio-Solids Management Project.  This Bio-solids project is a 380,000-dollar project for removing and treating sludge from all five existing wastewater treatment plant cells before the Phase I WWTP upgrade. This necessary work also included sludge drying using geo-bags. Once the bags were dry, the sludge was hauled to the local landfill. Also, during this time, under a separate project, drying beds were constructed to dry future sludge from the new wastewater treatment plant.

City of Dillon, Beaverhead River Pipe Crossing & Water Main Replacement Project

Manion Engineering provides surveying and grant writing services for this (1.2) Million dollar river crossing & water main replacement project.  This scope of work for this Project includes crossing the Beaverhead River with new water main(s) from the existing reservoir(s), two (2) miles worth of water main from the river to the interstate, and then a final connection to Dillon’s drinking water infrastructure.

City of Dillon, | WWTP Phase I Improvement Project

Manion Engineering provides all the engineering and construction management services (civil, mechanical, surveying, geotechnical, electrical, process & structural engineering) for a $9 million biological nutrient removal (BNR) facility in Dillon, Montana.  This Project includes collection piping; process piping; air piping; two new clarifiers; a biological nutrient removal basin (which reduces BOD, TSS, and ammonia; total nitrogen (as N) and phosphorous ( as P), head-works facility, ultraviolet disinfection, return activates sludge (RAS), waste activated sludge (WAS), sludge storage basins; sludge pump building; sludge drying; blower building retrofit; pump stations; equalization basin with flow split; collection and force main piping; telemetry & SCADA.

City of Dillon, On-Call Engineering Services

Manion Engineering provides general on-call engineering services under a five-year contract for the City of Dillon. Manion Engineering manages designs and construction services where we accomplish a Third $240,000 Manhole Replacement Project for the City of Dillon. This Project includes designing and replacing substandard manholes, sewer mains, and sanitary services. In addition, Manion Engineering plans projects to reduce the infiltration and inflow (I&I) of groundwater from the collection systems utilizing cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) trenchless technologies. To date, these manhole and sewer main replacement projects have reduced the inflow to the wastewater treatment plant by 1/3, saving the City’s capital budget.
