A Few Recent Projects – And Some Great Drone Footage!
Along with project partners Larson Design Group & Lobar Associates, Inc, Dutchland constructed a 3-channel precast concrete oxidation ditch with common walls for the WESTFIELD BOROUGH. The oxidation ditch measures 89' long by 65' wide and includes 2 equipment platforms. Two 30' diameter clarifier tanks were also part of the wastewater treatment plant upgrade.

The new Amblebrook wastewater treatment plant in Gettysburg, PA is online and operating flawlessly. Dutchland designed and constructed the precast internal tendon tank, measuring 52'-4" by 60'-10", as well as installed the mechanical equipment for the 100,000 gpd plant. The facility was designed for a MLE process with tertiary filter to meet stringent effluent requirements because it discharges into a high-quality stream. The design build project with Entech Engineering, Inc. was Dutchland's third project for The York Water Company!
