Inwood Forest Stormwater Detention Basin

Inwood Forest Stormwater Detention Basin Houston, TX The project included the conversion of 226-acres of golf course fairways into regional detention basins through an interlocal agreement between Harris County Flood Control District and the City of Houston. This project represents the largest single-phase dirt moving effort in the Flood Control District’s 88-year history. It is transforming the site into 12 interconnected compartments, designed to mitigate impacts of future City of Houston local drainage improvements and help reduce flooding risks in a historically vulnerable part of the city. The project encompasses property located both east of Antoine and west of Antoine, with a total of 12 interconnected compartments. The project is currently in construction and will provide approximately 1200 acre-feet of storage to the White Oak Bayou Watershed.

Wheatland Wastewater Improvements

Wheatland Wastewater Improvements Wheatland, IN DCCM led an internal and external team of engineers to design and develop a new sanitary sewer system for the Town of Wheatland. This system included designing three positive displacement blowers for a new extended aeration plant along with several miles of new low pressure force main, one lift station, and a package wastewater treatment plant for the town of 500 people. The team evaluated wastewater lagoons for Wheatland being crucial for maintaining compliance with regulations and ensuring effective treatment. One of the key challenges in the design of project was ensuring the project met the Town’s limited budget, supported by a $14M SRF grant award for water/wastewater. Through a combination of creative design and funding solutions and selection of a minimally invasive technology such as low pressure sewer, DCCM was able to secure reasonable bids that allowed the project to proceed.
