Wastewater Company At Center Of Bribery Scandal Won Big Maui Contracts 0 H2O Process Systems was awarded millions of dollars in sole source contracts for upgrades and replacement parts for Maui County’s wastewater system.
Maui County has spent millions of dollars in the last two decades upgrading aging sewer and wastewater infrastructure after a series of legal challenges over sewer spills put the county under federal monitoring.
After the consent decree with the Environmental Protection Agency, county administrations decided to put a renewed emphasis on using more recycled wastewater to irrigate crops.
One company that seems to have benefited from this renewed focus on improving wastewater infrastructure was H2O Process Systems, which has been awarded more than $12 million in sole source contracts since 2016. The purchase and installation of new filtration systems at wastewater facilities made up the majority of those contracts.
