Wastewater facilities don’t always need more space to deliver more capacity. As utilities face aging infrastructure and increasing regulations and costs, many are looking beyond traditional expansion models and toward more compact, efficient treatment solutions.
AquaNereda’s aerobic granular sludge technology is helping shift that conversation. By intensifying biological treatment within a smaller footprint, the process can help utilities improve performance, simplify operations and reduce long-term costs.

The Worldwide Distilled Spirits Conference (WDSC) highlights the vital role science, technology and innovation play in shaping the future of brewing and distilling. For Haskell’s Beer, Wine & Spirits team, those principles are always on tap.
Haskell Strategic Industry Advisor Phil Morgan and Senior Director of Project Development Tony Smith traveled to Edinburgh, Scotland, for four days of high-impact sessions, cutting-edge research and industry insight focused on the future of spirits.
Phil and Tony visited local distilleries and heard from world-class experts, including leaders from Scotland’s Heriot-Watt University, on topics ranging from wash fermentation for whisky production to the future of brewing and distilling. They also had the chance to visit historic Edinburgh Castle and the Tartan Weaving Mill.
As product quality, efficiency and consistency become increasingly driven by science-led processes, staying connected to the latest fermentation research and distilling innovation is essential to delivering high-performance facilities for clients.
Insights from the conference strengthen Haskell’s ability to design and deliver facilities that support more efficient, consistent and scalable production environments.

What began with the demolition of the Jacksonville Landing in 2019 has evolved into a long-term, city-led effort to restore the St. Johns River as a defining public asset. Haskell has been a consistent partner in turning that vision into reality.
The new Riverfront Plaza has begun to take shape at the former Landing site, where Haskell acted as Construction Manager at Risk and delivered Phase 1 on time and within budget in 2025, setting the tone for what disciplined, collaborative execution can achieve.
Haskell is now leading Phase 2 of Riverfront Plaza and was recently awarded similar roles at Metropolitan Park and Shipyards West Park. Together, the three projects represent a coordinated transformation of Jacksonville’s downtown waterfront. Each space is designed to serve the community differently, but all are grounded in the same principle: reconnect the city to its river.

Today, we’re going on a ski trip. But not just any ski trip! This one has been optimized by Zary Peretz, a Senior Analyst on Haskell’s System Analytics team.
Zary and her husband, Aaron, scheduled some PTO to hit the slopes in Park City, Utah. They arranged the flights, the car and the hotel. They packed the bibs and beanies.
And then Zary got busy.
By analyzing lift patterns, tracking peak usage and planning runs that suited them both, she built a simple optimization strategy that reduced wait times and maximized their time on the slopes.
It’s the same approach her team brings to Haskell projects. Clear goals, defined constraints and data-driven decisions lead to the best possible outcomes. Whether on a job site or a ski slope, analytics helps teams adapt, improve and deliver.
