Through this project, DC Water will make significant HVAC related system enhancements to the pumping station.

Scope of work

  • Provide variable refrigerant cooling systems
  • Add multiple diffusers to improve air flow
  • Furnish and install power distribution panels
  • Add fire suppression systems
  • Provide architectural lighting and fire alarm improvements
  • Add work platforms for HVAC apparatus access

Schedule

  • Estimated construction start: August 2017
  • Estimated construction completion: August 2018 - Completed
  • Normal work hours: 6:00 a.m. – 2:30 p.m., Monday through Friday

Important information

  • DC Water will work to ensure minimal disruption during the construction operations.

DC Water Breaks Ground on Piney Branch Tunnel, Final Phase of DC Clean Rivers Project

Today, DC Water broke ground on the Piney Branch Tunnel, the final major tunnel in our Clean Rivers Project. This work will help keep sewage and trash out of local waterways and make Rock Creek, the Potomac River, and the Chesapeake Bay cleaner for our community.

When we finish the Piney Branch Tunnel, it will hold at least 4.2 million gallons of rainwater and wastewater during heavy storms. Instead of overflowing into Piney Branch, that water will go to the Blue Plains Water Resource Recovery Facility, where it will be treated.
