Metro Water District of Salt Lake completes massive water improvement project

In 2007, the Metropolitan Water District of Salt Lake and Sandy completed a $250 million water infrastructure project — designed to meet current and anticipate future water demands of the fast-growing Salt Lake valley.  As general counsel to the district, we were closely involved with this project throughout eight years of planning and three years of construction.  The project included a new major pipeline, a new state-of-the-art water treatment facility at the Point of the Mountain, and expansion of the Little Cottonwood Water Treatment Plant.  We were involved with land acquisition, general specifications, municipal finance and procurement, as well as contract, insurance and tort issues.
