ClearWater Solutions is proud to announce a new partnership with the Ellijay-Gilmer Water & Sewerage Authority (EGWSA) under a three-year contract to provide comprehensive operations and maintenance services for the Authority’s wastewater facilities.
Under this agreement, CWS will serve as the certified operator of record for all wastewater system operations, providing the skilled labor necessary to ensure the facilities operate within the design capacity and meet all regulatory requirements. Our team will manage and maintain the wastewater treatment plant delivering high-quality, compliant service that protects public health and the environment.
Key responsibilities under the contract include:
- 24/7 operations and emergency response to support system reliability
- Routine maintenance and repairs of facilities, buildings, equipment, and vehicles
- Regulatory reporting and compliance with agencies such as the Georgia Department of Health, Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD), and the EPA
- Monthly operational reporting to EGWSA detailing work performed, upcoming schedules, and maintenance-related expenditures
- Wastewater testing and monitoring to meet all local, state, and federal requirements
- Support for capital improvement planning, when requested by the Authority
“This contract has been a long time coming. Five years to be exact,” reminded CWS Regional Director, Josh VanHorn. “In 2020, CWS submitted a proposal for this project. Our firm was not selected in that process, but we worked hard to maintain the relationship we had established. Fast forward to 2025 and we now have been hired to serve the community.”
We are excited to welcome the Ellijay-Gilmer team into the ClearWater family and look forward to making a positive impact in the region.
