The Unified Southern Sarpy Wastewater System is a transformative infrastructure project designed to support the rapid growth of Sarpy County, Nebraska. By installing a new gravity sewer system, force mains and lift stations, the project will dramatically expand the region’s capacity for development. This is crucial because of the expanding population of the county and the project is expected to generate substantial tax revenue for the state and surrounding cities. BILCO provided critical support to this large-scale project by supplying durable, stainless steel floor doors for the wastewater system. These doors, designed for corrosive environments, are easy to operate and enhance safety, securing the equipment essential for the efficient operation of the sewer system. Their contribution plays a key role in ensuring the project’s functionality and long-term success.
"There are only a few manufacturers in the industry that provide these types of doors for the corrosive environment, BILCO was among the list specified by our engineer. They are a very solid and safe system. We wanted something that was going to provide a high level of security. We don’t want somebody falling into some of these areas. And they secure the equipment needed to facilitate the movement and conveyance of our sewers. They’re very functional and easy to operate.”
