Wastewater Solutions, Inc. (WSI) is a wastewater operations consulting and training company. We help utilities and industrial plants across the United States start up new facilities, cut energy and chemical costs, regain permit compliance, and build certified, confident operating staffs through hands-on training and plant-specific O&M manuals.
Our service lines
From the first startup plan to a certified, confident operating staff, we cover the work that keeps a plant running well.

Where we have worked
We have done startup, training, troubleshooting and O&M manuals all over the country, and we have trained operators at hundreds of treatment plants across the United States and Canada. Our work includes plants in Hawaii, Indiana, Oregon, Washington, California, Idaho, Texas and Georgia, and in British Columbia.
Our Hawaii work includes startup and commissioning, O&M and training manuals, operator training and optimization for municipal, military and National Park Service facilities.
How we team
Partner, sub or prime. We work as a partner, subcontractor or prime with other talented engineers, contractors and consultants, and we can assemble a quality team for a project of any size.
- Partner: we work side by side with engineers, contractors and consultants, sharing the project and its scope.
- Subcontractor: we support a prime engineer or contractor with startup and commissioning, optimization, training or manuals.
- Prime: we lead the project and bring in the other engineers, contractors and consultants it needs.
Led by Brad Musick
WSI is led by Brad Musick, a former superintendent of two Indiana advanced treatment plants who has held the highest wastewater operator certification in six states. Before founding WSI he served as National Practice Leader for Operations Services at two national engineering firms. Every WSI job draws on that hands-on plant experience.
