Environmental Partners Group, headquartered in Quincy, was retained by the town of Eastham to design and construct what has been identified as “the single largest and most ambitious water infrastructure program ever undertaken on Cape Cod.”

Led by Environmental Partners Group’s innovative and fast-paced design and construction management program, the project is ahead of schedule and under budget, resulting in public water available to customers in only 30 months. The $130 million townwide water system project protects public health townwide, provides sustainable water resources management, and assures the continued vitality of the historic community of Eastham.
