QUALIFICATIONS:

Management & Construction Services, Inc.  DBA  - MCSI Water Systems Management -  is owned and operated by Russell & Jo-Ann Hatch and their son Ross Hatch with help from a great group of employees and water experts. From 1983 to 1994 Russell was the Administrative Officer/General Manager of the Carmel Valley Mutual Water Company, serving 389 member-customers in the Hidden Hills area of Monterey County. During that period the water system for Hidden Hills was rebuilt and a 25-year negotiation to sell the water system to California-American Water Company was completed.

Since 1988 MCSI has provided services for more than 250 water systems and homeowner groups along the Central Coast of California. We employ Grade I and Grade II licensed water Distribution & Treatment operators, a knowledgeable office staff and various problem solvers. We offer a full range of billing & collection services, financial design, budgeting, rate design, water quality reports, and regulatory compliance solutions for small and medium size water systems.

Currently we provide management, operations, & consulting services for Mutual Water Companies, City & County water operations, and many agricultural processing facilities as well as individual water systems serving schools, churches, and commercial establishments. References from our clients are available upon request.

MCSI has established close relationships with Health Department regulators,  State-Certified analytical laboratories, civil engineers, hydrogeologists, and many other companies that assist with water-related projects. 

OUR GOAL IS THE EFFICIENT AND ECONOMICAL OPERATION OF YOUR SMALL WATER SYSTEM.
