2021 CBC Project Team Awards Civil, Structural, Utilities (Small) Merit Indian Spring Pond Dam Water Transmission Main Replacement Greenwich, CT |
Success of an infrastructure project isn’t achieved by simply designing a technical solution. It's also a matter of successfully implementing the solution consistent with the vision of its stakeholders, no matter the challenges.
Indian Spring Pond Dam was a 1920s era dam that did not meet modern dam safety standards. So, it needed to be rebuilt – a simple matter of design and construction. However, a critical water transmission main, which could not be shut down, was in the way. Herein lies a tale of two projects in a beautiful forest. The outcome is a testament to the value of collaboration.
