Aegion Corporation Awarded an $8 Million Municipal Contract from the City of Montgomery, Alabama

Aegion Corporation (“Aegion” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq Global Select Market: AEGN) today announced the award of an $8 million contract from the City of Montgomery, Alabama for its Infrastructure Solutions platform. This project is the second and final phase of a wastewater pipeline rehabilitation project located in the Econchate Basin, a collection system that drains into the Econchate Wastewater Treatment Plant.

The first phase of the project, also awarded to Aegion, was completed in April 2016 and included the installation of 10,000 feet of Insituform® CIPP and iPlus® Composite in 48-inch to 54-inch diameter pipelines. This second phase is expected to take 15 months to complete with work likely to begin later this month.

Company crews will install Insituform® CIPP and iPlus® Composite to rehabilitate over 20,000 feet of 8-inch to 48-inch diameter pipelines. The project also involves managing the rehabilitation of 34 manholes and the construction of over two miles of all-weather access road in the wetland area.

Frank Firsching, President of Aegion’s Infrastructure Solutions platform, said, “We have over 25 years of experience working for the City of Montgomery. We are pleased to have been prequalified for and awarded this latest project and commend the City of Montgomery for their proactive approach to addressing its collection system in the Econchate Basin.”
