CORBALIS WTP STAGE III EXPANSION PROJECT HONORED BY ASCE-NCS

On April 20, the team of Fairfax Water, Camp Dresser & McKee, and PC Construction proudly accepted the 2010 Outstanding Civil Engineering Project of the Year Award by the American Society of Civil Engineers National Capital Section (ASCE-NCS). The award was in recognition of the collaborative effort on the Corbalis Water Treatment Plant Stage III Expansion project in Herndon, Virginia – the largest water treatment plant in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

During the original partnering session, the project team identified a goal of receiving an award for this project. Now, four years, 500,000 cubic yards of excavation, 60,000 cubic yards of concrete, 9 miles of chemical piping, and 100 process tie-ins later, that goal was achieved. Competing against and being selected for this award over outstanding projects like the Capital Visitors Center in Washington DC is something we can all be proud of.

The annual awards banquet recognizes and celebrates local excellence in projects, engineers, and students who have contributed to society and the community.
