Project Date:2006
Project Name: Henderson Mine Water Treatment Facility
Project Cost: $350,000
Project Description: The Henderson Mine treats low turbility water [<2 NTU] from Butler Creek to serve the main administrative and operations complex, and the undergroung mine works. DUring spring run off and summer storm events, turbidity levels can increase up to 100 NTU. During these events the existing treatment syste's reliablity is compromised.

Dan's Custom Construction provided lead construction management and constructability as member of the design-build [D/B} team upgrading the Mine's water filtration process.

The project included the building of a new water treatment building, installation of "State of the Art" Siemens Membrane Filtration Equipment and retrofitting of all existing systems and processes to the new system facility.

Project Date: 2003
Project Name: Wattenberg Improvement Association Reverse Osmosis Filtartion Water Treatment Membrane System
Project Cost: $339,658
Project Description: The Town of Wattenberg provides drinking water to approximately 400 people.The town is plagued with a water supply high in nitrates and nitrites. A Compliance Enforcement Order was issued to the town. The solution employed a reverse osmosis membrane filtration system with brine water diffused into the S. Platte River.

Dan’s Custom Construction was the lead construction manager for this project and the construction consultant for the design-build (D/B) team upgrading the Town’s water treatment facilities water filtration process.

The project included the installation of a new Lighthouse Separation System 50 GPM reverse osmosis water filtration facility and all new water supply pumping systems, installation of 5,000 ft of discharge pipeline to the S. Platte River, coordination with Army Corp of Engineers for placement of discharge diffuser into the center of the South Platte River.

Project Name: Dotsero Plant - Water & Waste Water Treatment Plan Improvements (RO Membrane System & SBR Wasterwater Facility)
Project Cost: $430,000
Project Description: The Dotsero Mobile Homoe Park was serving its residents with antiquated 30+ year old water and wastewater treatment systems. The wastewater treatment system was no longer functioning as designed and was prone to enforcement action by the State Department of Health. A design/build/operate contract completely fixed the problem and brought the facility into compliance.

Dan’s Custom Construction provided lead construction management and design construction consulting for this project. Dan’s Custom Construction was a member of a design-build-operate (DBO) team, retained to provide all the services needed to construct the replacement facility.

The project included the installation of “State of the Art” 25,000 gallon per day Reverse Osmosis Membrane Filtration System, booster pumps, and equipment as well as construction of a complete turnkey 30,000 gallon per day Sequencing Batch Reactor package plant.

Project Date: 2004 & 2005
Project Name: Town of Lyons Water & Wastewater District (Wasterwater Facility Improvements)
Project Cost: $201.000
Project Description: The Town of Lyons, in Colorado has been experiencing tremendous residential growth. To support this growth the town retained a team to begin to design and build the new improvements. The Town of Lyons was satisfied with the high quality of work for the first project and hired Dan’s Custom Construction to continue the work on the remained of the projects. The improvements included a new lift station facility, install a new UV system to the wastewater treatment process, and to upgrade the influent pump processing.

Dan’s Custom Construction built a new wastewater lift station with a wet valve and installation of Gorman-Rupp pumping system to serve a new 400 home development.

The second project included replacement of a main influent pump which required custom installation to replace a vertical pumping system with a more efficient Gorman-Rupp pump.

The final project included designing and installing an entire new Ultra Violate light disinfection process to the town’s wastewater system. This required construction of a custom fabricated building for the new system and routing of the water flow back to the St. Vrain River.

Project Date: 2008
Project Name: Eldorado Springs
Project Description: With a tight deadline and even tighter space constraints, DCC was able to construct a new WWTF for the town of Eldorado Springs. Using Fluidyne SBR Equipment and a cast in place concrete structure, all the treatment process is accomplished below ground level. A small operations building is all that is necessary to house the control components and chemicals required for the process. Since the project was in Boulder County, we had to comply with all the restrictive guidelines and enviromental concerns set forth by the county. Engineered by Frachetti Engineering.

Project Date: 2008
Project Name: Denver Area Boyscouts of America
Project Description:DCC was contacted by Wright Water Engineering, who was looking for a contractor who could work with their clients' budget. We decided to accept the challenge. Within about six weeks we were able to complete three chlorination systems for three seperate well sites. Each site required extensive underground piping, a small operations building, and all new control and chlorination equipment. The buildings were constructed to match the existing structures in the Peaceful Valley area. DCC has become a preferred contractor, and has an on-going relationship with the DABOA.

Project Date: 2008 - 2009
Project Name: Meeker Sanatation District
Project Description:Through the standard bid process DCC was the contractor selected to complete two seperate contracts for the Meeker Sanitation District.

The second consisted of demolishing existing and installing new RAS and WAS pumps, and all new process piping associated with the pump room. In the same contract we were required to demolish all the equipment, Repair the leakage of the concrete structure, and install new equipment in one of their two existing clarifiers. The new clarifier equipment was provided by Westech. Both projects were designed by St. Josephs Consulting Engineer's.

Project Date: 2006
Project Name: Brannan Pit Pump Station
Project Cost: $142,000
Project Description:The Brannan Pump station was in need of a pump system that would allow water to be pumped as little as 2 cfs.
