Treatment + Get AlertsThe University of New Hampshire hired engineering firm Woodard & Curran under a design-build contract to replace its aging water treatment plant that was originally built in 1935. A new state-of-the-art facility was designed to treat up to 2 mgd of drinking water for the campus and the neighboring town of Durham, New Hampshire.
