FORT MYERS, Florida, Nov. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FORT MYERS, Fla. – CDM Smith has been selected by the City of Fort Myers, Florida, for the expansion of reclaimed water treatment systems at two 12-million-gallon-per-day (mgd) advanced wastewater treatment facilities.
This 5-year, $150 million project is designed to eliminate all effluent discharge from the plants into the surface waters of the neighboring Caloosahatchee River and help combat Florida’s harmful algae bloom.
The firm has a long history with the City of Fort Myers serving as their engineer of record for wastewater for more than 20 years.
The waning water resources in Southwest Florida coupled with a new state regulation that prohibits the discharge of any water into surface waters makes this work crucial for the City of Fort Myers.
