Donohue’s Tom Crouse was recently recognized with the Albers-Templeton Service Award at the Wisconsin Wastewater Operators' Association (WWOA) Annual Conference in Wisconsin Dells. The award is presented to an individual who has made outstanding contributions to WWOA and has been a member for at least 10 years. Areas of contribution may include promotion, operation, management, program participation, or education.
Located in Evansville, Indiana, the Sunrise Pump Station and Cascade serves as a multifaceted asset to the community. Designed with a peak pumping capacity of 40 mgd, it includes site piping and diversion structures to route flow from the gravity flow sewer to the new pump station, variable speed controls for all pumps, electrical and control equipment in an unrated space, an emergency generator system, and an automated control system with telemetry compatible to the Utility’s existing SCADA. The effluent is pumped via two force mains over the Ohio River levee and discharged to a cascading aeration structure. This, combined with the facility’s beautiful design, unique learning opportunities, and integration into a community park, make it the perfect candidate for the Aim Community Placemaking Award it recently received.
In the latest release of the Engineering News-Record’s (ENR’s) 2023 national rankings, Donohue has once again demonstrated its industry prowess by securing a spot in the Top 20 within the wastewater treatment plant category. This noteworthy achievement marks the company's ninth consecutive year of maintaining its presence in the top echelon of wastewater treatment rankings.
The Evansville Water and Sewer Utility recently hosted a “How Much Do You Know About H2O” Student Artwork Contest for students from Lincoln School, Evansville Day School, and Signature School. Entrants were invited to submit artwork that depicts the importance of water in everyday life.
Donohue & Associates worked with the Holland Board of Public Works (HBPW) to construct an anaerobic digester at the Holland Area Water Reclamation Facility. The project recently received an ENVISION Gold rating for sustainability.
