J. Robert Folchetti & Associates assisted the Village of Brewster in securing a $25.4 million grant from the New York City Department of Environmental Protection to upgrade and operate its wastewater facilities and to extend service throughout a major part of the Village.  Work performed by JRFA included the following:

• Upgrading of the NYC owned wastewater treatment plant to bring it into conformance with the new Croton watershed removal criteria, including the siting of the expanded facilities;

• Preparing a plan for the Village to take over ownership of the wastewater treatment facility, which included a lump sum monetary grant to cover operational costs;

• Design (preparation of plans and specifications) of a 240,000 gpd wastewater treatment plan which includes tertiary treatment, plus a microfiltration system in conformance with NYC Watershed Regulations;

• Design of 7,500 square foot NYCDEP Laboratory on the site;

• Securing of all permits at the State, County and local level;

• Construction administration of  the wastewater treatment plant and laboratory construction

Knox Village Associates, Inc. is proposing to construct an active adult residential communityconsisting of 183 one and two bedroom units, 9 common rooms and a 3,200 square foot clubhouse located on the east side of NYS Route 32. A total of 183 residential units will be spread among eight 3-story buildings. Approximately thirty-nine units will be one-bedroom and the remaining one hundred forty four units are proposed to be constructed as two-bedroom units. The site is to be built with a single accessway from NYS Route 32.

The first phase of our scope of work was to receive approval to extend the water and sewer districts of the Town of New Windsor as well as the Ambulance District.  Approval was received from the Planning Board.  In addition, Folchetti and Associates was responsible for acquiring wetland permits for the project form the USACOE and the NYSDEC.

J. Robert Folchetti & Associates has completed the design of the site layout and infrastructure which includes a network of roadways, stormwater collection, conveyance and treatment systems, lighting and fire protection.
