DCWASA’s Project Delivery Approach for the Washington DC CSO Program
Abstract
To comply with the National CSO Policy, DCWASA completed a Long-Term Control Plan in 2002 and entered into a consent-decree agreement with the United States and DC government, establishing an implementation schedule for a number of projects to control CSOs into the Anacostia River. Several of these projects are tunnels. Previously, DCWASA used the traditional design-bid-build delivery process for capital projects. Now it is studying alternative project delivery methods to ensure contractor interest in individual projects. This paper summarizes contract packaging approach, anticipated project delivery methods, and risk allocation techniques that will be used for the DCWASA CSO program.
