캘리포니아 샌디에고가 시의 27억 달러 가치 식수 프로그램 ‘Pure Water San Diego’의 시행을 관리·조력하는 기업으로 환경 공학 및 자문, 시공팀인 MWH·Brown&Caldwell를 선정했다.

Brown&Caldwell은 초기 5년간 계획 단계에서 실행 단계로 프로그램을 발전시키는 관리 서비스를 포함하는 3천만 달러 규모의 계약을 수행하기 위해 자문기업인 MWH Global, 세계 및 지역 범위 공정 설계 및 수질기업인 Trussel Technologies과 합류했다.

 

 

 

The city of San Diego, California has selected environmental engineering, consulting, and construction team, MWH/Brown and Caldwell, to manage and assist in the delivery of the city's US$ 2.7 billion drinking water programme, Pure Water San Diego.

 

Brown and Caldwell has joined consultant MWH Global and local process engineering and water quality firm Trussell Technologies for the initial five-year, US$ 30 million contract that includes management services to move the programme from planning into implementation.

 

Under the contract, which began in January 2015, MWH/Brown and Caldwell will provide strategic planning, project delivery, programme controls, predesign of conveyance and treatment facilities, design oversight/management, pilot testing of proposed technologies, regulatory permitting, outreach and public education, quality management, and risk mitigation services.

 

The programme includes a 75 Ml/d water purification facility which is scheduled for operation by 2023. The programme has a long-term goal of producing purified water, at 445 Ml/d - one third of San Diego's future drinking water supply - by 2035. And Pure Water San Diego will greatly reduce the volume of treated wastewater discharged to the ocean.

 

Director of client services at Brown and Caldwell, Jay Patil, said: "With San Diego now leading the way in large-scale, state-of-the-art potable reuse implementation, many other communities will begin to look at their water supplies differently."
