Value Delivered
Our team replaced the existing steel gates and hoists and completed minor site refurbishments for the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) at structures S-40, S-41, and S-44, along with minor site refurbishments. We replaced the gates with new stainless steel gate assemblies at all three structures and replaced the hoists at S-40 and S-41 with new cable-and-drum hoists.
