WATER STORAGE FACILITIES
Morrison-Maierle is a multi-disciplinary engineering firm that specializes in the design of water infrastructure improvements. Water storage provides adequate fire flows and pressures and is critical to public health and safety. Proper sizing, location, and design can immensly improve the operation of your water distribution system.
■ What We Offer
• Hydraulic modeling for sizing and operation• Inlet and outlet design for mixing• SCADA and control design• Foundation and structural design• Design of systems for improving water quality• Pump station evaluation• Building design support - mechanical, electrical, and
structural
■ What We Design
• Glass-lined, bolted-steel• Fiberglass• Pre-stressed concrete tanks• Elevated steel• Ground steel• Pressure sustaining and reducing valves• Control valves
WHAT WE DO
■ Mni Wiconi Rural Water System, South Dakota
• 29 Storage Reservoirs• Size Range: 12,000 Gallon and 75,000-1.25M Gallons• Three Types: Buried, Elevated and Ground Surface
Completed in 2015, the Oglala Sioux Tribe’s rural water system serves 50,000 people in an area covering 12,500 square miles. It is the largest rural water system in the United States. Water supply includes ground-water from well supplies throughout the Pine Ridge Reservation and the Missouri River as a treated surface water source. Beyond the water supplies, there is an extensive distribution network consisting of pipeline, reservoirs, and pump stations. Pipelines range in size from 26-inch transmission mains to 4- and 6-inch distribution mains mainly of welded steel and PVC pipe. The total length of pipe is approximate-ly 350 miles with another 240 miles of service line piping.

■ Hot Springs County Cemetery District, Wyoming
• Engineering Design, Survey, and Pump Review Report• Electrical, Structural, and Mechanical Design
Morrison-Maierle provided an evaluation and preparation of a hydraulic model of two 46,000 existing water tanks and an irrigation system to determine the required storage tank size requirements, and recommendations for either rehabilitation of the old tanks or replacement with new tanks. After several survey and site visits, the client chose to put in new a new 88,000-gallon, glass-lined bolted steel tank and a new pump station. The project, which included engineering work from several of the company’s market groups, was completed and put into service in April 2016.
■ Town of Hot Springs, Montana
• Water Storage Tank Design• SCADA System Design• Pump House Design• Planning, Survey, PER reports, Modeling, Funding
Assistance, Bidding, Construction Administration
Since 2010, Morrison-Maierle has worked with the Town of Hot Springs to prepare and implement a wide range of water and waste-water improvements. Preliminary Engineering Reports (PER) showed that the Town was deficient in storage capacity which led to the con-struction of a new 200,000-gallon tank opposite of the existing tank. In 2015, the new bolted-steel, glass-lined water storage tank and SCADA system, using radio modems was completed and in operation.
■ Concrete Water Storage Reservoirs
Morrison-Maierle has experience working with pre-stressed/post-tensioned concrete water retaining structures. All projects were constructed by DN Tanks (DYK), a contractor in our region.
• Lone Moose Meadows, Montana 450,000-gallon water reservoir
• Mountain Water Company, Montana 300,000-gallon water reservoir
• Spanish Peaks, Montana 830,000-gallon water reservoir• City of Bozeman Sourdough Reservoir, Montana
4,000,000-gallon water reservoir dome ring repairs
WHO WE AREJohn Morrison and Joe Maierle met while working for the
Bridge Division of the Montana Highway Department in the 1930s. Back then, Montana lacked interstates, bridges, and modern-day transportation systems. In fact in many parts of the state, transportation was nothing more than single-lane, dirt roads.
Conversations and collaborations at work made John and Joe realize they shared a common goal—they wanted to create solutions to help pull Montana “out of the mud.” So they put their passion to the test, and in 1945 built a start-up business housed in John’s home.
From day one at Morrison-Maierle, John and Joe decided their main goal was client satisfaction and the way they were going to achieve that was to create solutions that helped them build better communities. They approached their business like they built engineering projects—one step at a time and with integrity, commitment, respect, and excellence. These four words became our building blocks and symbolize the way projects are designed and clients are served today. As a result, Morrison-Maierle has been creating solutions throughout the western U. S. for more than 70 years.
From two engineers with deep commitments to communities, Morrison-Maierle has grown into a Top 500 Design Firm that is built on four core values. Our firm uses these building blocks to create solutions for buildings, airports, land development, natural resources, mining, surveying, transportation, and water-wastewater projects.

RECENT PROJECT EXPERIENCE
■ Yellowstone Mountain Club, Montana
• Two, 400,000-Gallon Reservoirs • 600,000-Gallon Reservoir• Cast-in-Place Concrete• Below-grade design to meet aesthetic requirements
Morrison Maierle provided master planning, design and construction engineering services for three concrete water reservoirs at the Yellow-stone Mountain Club in Big Sky, Montana. They were constructed of reinforced cast-in-place concrete. Due to requirments from the client, all Yellowstone Club reservoirs are below grade.
