The Challenge

Public project context: NYC DEP identifies Newtown Creek as the city largest wastewater resource recovery facility, with 310 MGD capacity. Wastewater plants need safe access around digesters, aeration tanks, screening areas and wet utility routes.

The Solution

Application reference: galvanized steel grating and selected FRP panels can support municipal wastewater access where drainage, odor-control equipment, removable panels and corrosion zones must be planned. This record uses public DEP facility facts and is not a Kingcats supply claim.
