Our Markets

Water

Communities need reliable, environmentally sound water utilities.

Aging and inadequate infrastructure, heightened regulation and water scarcity challenge the day-to-day work of managing water and wastewater collection, treatment and distribution. That’s why we pair utility design and construction expertise with thoughtful creativity and hard work. Haskell’s collaborative, value-focused approach helps municipalities and businesses provide pure, uncompromised water, protect public health and welfare, and ensure vital environmental stewardship.

We have the expertise, experience and resources to tackle complex projects.

Haskell has earned a reputation for excellence in the delivery of water and wastewater related projects through design-build and construction management at-risk. We apply deep understanding and an extensive breadth of resources to tackle even the most complex projects. With a single point of responsibility, we break through the complications and provide a clearly better solution that fits each community’s unique needs.

Water Treatment

We deliver high-quality water treatment infrastructure through collaborative delivery methods that prioritize transparency, flexibility and partnership. Whether through Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR), Construction Manager/General Contractor (CM/GC), Progressive Design-Build or other collaborative delivery models, our team works closely with owners and design partners to ensure projects meet public health standards and operational goals.

Advanced Water & Wastewater Treatment

Building advanced treatment facilities requires precision, coordination and a deep understanding of complex technologies, such as membrane filtration, reverse osmosis and advanced oxidation. Our teams have delivered high-performance facilities that support potable reuse, nutrient and emerging contaminant removal and compliance with evolving water quality regulations.

Construction of advanced wastewater facilities involves navigating tight spaces, critical tie-ins and sophisticated biological processes, all while maintaining operational continuity. Our teams have built some of the most technically demanding treatment plants across the country, with a focus on environmental compliance and long-term performance.

Advanced Water & Wastewater Treatment projects include:

Biosolids

We develop integrated biosolids management solutions that transform waste into valuable resources. From digestion and dewatering to thermal drying and energy recovery, our strategies reduce environmental impact and support long-term sustainability goals.

Examples include:

Reuse & Reclamation Systems  

Supporting long-term water sustainability, our construction teams have delivered reuse and reclamation systems for both non-potable and potable applications. These projects often involve advanced treatment processes and high-precision execution, coordinated closely with design teams and utility owners.

Examples include:

Pumping & Conveyance  

We build critical conveyance systems that keep communities moving, from complex pump stations to force mains and interceptor pipelines. Our teams excel in challenging environments, navigating tight urban corridors, rugged terrain and long-distance routes with minimal disruption to surrounding areas. Whether upgrading aging systems or starting from the ground up, we deliver infrastructure engineered for performance, built for longevity and installed with precision. Our expertise ensures reliable solutions tailored to each project’s demands, regardless of complexity or location.

Our portfolio includes major pump stations, force mains, and interceptor systems such as:

Greenfield Site

Through comprehensive greenfield development expertise, we transform undeveloped land into fully operational treatment facilities. Our integrated approach delivers cost-effective solutions designed for future expansion while minimizing environmental impact, taking your project from raw land to functioning infrastructure with precision and efficiency.

Examples include:

Active Plant Upgrades

Working within the constraints of operating facilities, we execute complex plant upgrades while maintaining uninterrupted service. Our phased construction strategies, risk mitigation planning and deep technical expertise minimize disruption and maximize efficiency.

Examples include:

  • City of Fort Myers Biosolids Equipment
  • City Creek Water Treatment Plant Upgrade
  • Water Treatment Plant Reverse Osmosis (RO) and SCADA System Upgrades
  • University Park Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrades
  • Opequon Water Reclamation Facility Green Energy Project

Emerging Contaminant Removal

Our specialized construction teams excel in building advanced treatment systems designed to address emerging contaminants in water and wastewater applications. With expertise in PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) removal technologies and other cutting-edge processes, we deliver complex installations that meet evolving regulatory requirements and protect public health.

Examples include:

  • Confidential Water Treatment Plant Expansion
  • Riviera Beach Blue Herron WTP
  • JEA Water Purification Demonstration Facility

Central to meeting our objectives was Haskell's overall approach of clear and frequent communications between the entire project team. Their continuous risk assessment, cost review, and project constructability evaluation challenged conventional practices, assuring the project cost fit within JEA's budget.
