Description  
   
Stuart, FL - The City of Stuart Commissioners awarded Ocean Gate General Contractors, Inc. a contract to upgrade the city’s Wastewater Treatment Facility Odor Control System. The scope of work included new construction of six pre-engineered metal building structures with chemical-resistant coatings and related odor-control equipment systems. The structures cover the exposed components of the waste water treatment facility, including the three large digester tanks, a chlorine contact basin, and the headwork’s and blower buildings. Odor control systems with boilers will “scrub” the odors from the air. Each component of the project has presented engineering and design challenges for VP Buildings, the building designer. But, through collaboration the project is on track to achieve successful completion, and successful odor control for the City of Stuart.

This project has also offered Ocean Gate’s newest division an opportunity to shine. Our Industrial Coatings Division has provided coatings for several of the structures to prevent corrosion and wear from the harsh elements.
Ocean Gate General Contractors, Inc. was selected because of the effort the firm invested in understanding the special requirements of a sensitive project. The facility will continue with full operations during construction. The new systems will be in place by June, 2011.

Description  
   
Stuart, FL - Ocean Gate is underway with their latest project in the Town of Jupiter at the new Water Treatment Facility on Central Boulevard. The project will provide renovation and repair to the remaining portions of the plant that were not replaced when the new nanofiltration plant was constructed on the west side of the property. The project includes the hardening of three buildings at the Waste Water Treatment Plant bringing the structures up to the current codes to withstand the forces of Florida’s hurricanes. Amadou Dial will lead the project on behalf of Ocean Gate. The Town’s project manager will be Brad Wagner, and Song & Associates is the architect for the project.

Each building will receive a new roof, replacement windows, and new supports to the exterior of each structure. Additionally, each building will receive a new façade to match the new nanofiltration plant recently opened on the west side of the Waste Water Treatment Plant. The project will take approximately 8 months to complete.
