Douglas, Georgia

ESG’s relationship with the City of Douglas began in January 2015. ESG transitioned 27 employees from the City and our scope of responsibilities includes operations and maintenance of the water treatment and distribution systems, lift stations, wastewater treatment and collection systems, and public works. ESG has produced for the City over $500,000 in savings by implementing ESG’s asset management plan and in-sourcing approach on repairs and capital improvements.
