Newly Awarded Projects:

Graves County and Livingston County Schools

Marcum Engineering has recently been awarded projects for two new school districts in Kentucky. Marcum will be providing mechanical design services for the Graves County High School HVAC Renovations project and has also been selected by Livingston County Schools for various district-wide projects with Castleberry McGregor Architects.

Fieldmont Lift Station Improvements

Bacon Farmer Workman was just awarded the Fieldmont Lift Station Improvement project with the Paducah-McCracken County Joint Sewer Agency. This project consists of the design of a replacement lift station for the existing 7.5 HP, duplex, submersible lift station, located in Fieldmont Subdivision, along the north side of U.S. Highway 60 in Reidland, Kentucky. Task includes sizing the proposed wet well to handle the I/I concerns within the system during wet weather flows, designing valve vault, pumps, new controls, and other miscellaneous site improvements. As part of the design, we will also verify the pumping capabilities of two other lift stations (Greyhound Circle Lift Station and Southern Pride Lift Station) within the area, and also review the existing force main line size. Permanent standby power will not be required for this new lift station, as the design will incorporate additional storage, beyond the minimum two-hour storage, in the wet well.

Murray State University-New Physics Building

Bacon Farmer Workman and sister company Marcum Engineering, LLC with teaming architects Hastings & Chivetta were just awarded the civil, mechanical and electrical engineering on the new Physics Building for Murray State University. We are thrilled to be a part of another great MSU project.
