Working in partnership to optimize capital improvements

Clark County Water Reclamation District Capital Improvement Program

The Clark County Water Reclamation District is responsible for wastewater collection, treatment, and reclamation in unincorporated areas of Clark County, including the communities of Blue Diamond, Indian Springs, Laughlin, Searchlight, and Moapa Valley. Established in 1954, the District operates the Las Vegas Valley and outlying service area facilities, which collect and treat approximately 100 million gallons of wastewater per day. 

The district previously had challenges with rapid growth—both residential and commercial—along with aging infrastructure and the need to meet federal and state water quality standards. To help address these challenges, we located a program management team on-site in District offices, successfully working as an extension of their staff and fully integrating within the District’s organization. When it came to their capital improvement program, we contributed program management, program controls, engineering project management, construction management, sewer modeling, and design-build procurement and pre-design.

The result? Successful implementation of the capital improvement program. Our program management significantly contributed to increasing capital output to a record $770 million in the past five years with a present five-year program budget total of $690 million.
