A consent decree between the City of Baltimore, Maryland and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) required shutting down two storage tanks in Baltimore's active water supply and transferring the water to two new pre-stressed concrete tanks. The challenges of these two concurrent projects worth a combined $271 million will be highlighted. Learn about the team's challenges and innovative approach to major construction in active drinking water reservoirs. The discussion will include how the team continued to meet the EPA's drinking water standards during construction and completed the work with few changes.
