DENVER, Dec. 27, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The City of Gallup, New Mexico, council members approved an 8-year contract with CH2M to take over operations and maintenance of the city's 5-million-gallon-per-day wastewater treatment plant. In addition to Operations Management Services, CH2M will design and construct an upgrade to the current facility. Upgrades will help the community with odor-control issues and boost efficiency of biosolids disposal.
"We are thrilled to have CH2M as our partner," said City of Gallup Mayor Jackie McKinney. "We look forward to the excellent technical knowledge the firm will be able to bring to our community as they have in neighboring cities."

"The design-build operate contract allows us to deliver the full breadth of CH2M capabilities to the City of Gallup. We're looking forward to applying our expertise from beginning design concepts to successfully maintaining and operating the facilities to improve the performance of the City's wastewater treatment infrastructure," said Peter Nicol, CH2M Global Market Director, Water.
