  1. Integrated Project Delivery: Built to Last CMAA Water Summit July 20, 2010 James A. Parrott Executive Director

  2. MSDGC Background • Population Served • 850,000 in Hamilton County, Ohio • 220,000 connections • Double Governance • Hamilton County Sewer District • Operated by City of Cincinnati

  3. MSDGC Challenges • Aging Infrastructure • About 50% combined sewers • Some 150 years old • Multi-Billion $Consent Order • Plan submitted in 2006 • Conditional approval in 2009 • Phase 1 = $1.2B by 2019 • Stagnant/Failing Local and National economy • Unprecedented local layoffs (especially in government) • Affordability issues with residents

  4. Key Facts • MSD is among the top 5 CSO dischargers in the US • MSD must submit a plan to USEPA by December 2012 for the Lower Mill Creek Remedy (location of our largest CSO) • MSD has until 2017 to submit Phase II Schedule

  5. MSD’s Environmental Challenge Must control by 85%

  6. How to Build a Consent Order Wet Weather Strategy Source Control Conveyance & Storage Product Control Strategy Phased Approach Phase 1: 2009 – 2019 Phase 2: Schedule to be submitted by 2017 Flexibility Controlled Spending Phase 1: $1.145B Credit for $300M of projects already built Phase 2: To Be Determined Affordability

  7. Clock is Ticking • Submit Plan for Phase 2 including schedule and costs 2009 MSD received conditional approval of the Wet Weather Plan after three years of negotiations • 2011 • Evaluate alternatives to achieve overflow reductions of 2BG 2017 2009 2010 2011 2012 2017 2018 2010 Final legal action anticipated • 2012 • MSD will integrate results to arrive at a recommended plan to submit to USEPA • 2018 • MSD must achieve 2 BG overflow reduction in Lower Mill Creek

  8. WWIP Phases & Workload WWIP Phase II Total167 Projects Schedule will be negotiated WWIP Phase I 70 Completed 45 New Projects 8 Annual Allowances

  9. MSD Wet Weather Strategy Determines the Project Portfolio • Source Control • Removal of natural drainage from entering the system • Regional BMPs, Separate storm sewer installation • Conveyance & Storage • Tunnels, parallel interceptors, storage facilities • Real-Time control • Product Control • EHRT and peak flow enhancements to existing WWTP’s

  10. MSD Wet Weather Strategy Implementation Hydraulic Grade Line

  11. How We Got Started • Three phased PMC • GAP Analysis • Highlighted project risks, resource and process needs • Developing Process to Bridge the GAP • Master Program Management Plan • Implementation Plan and Monitor Progress

  12. MSD Organization in 2006

  13. Engineering Division Conventional “Cradle to Grave” Project Management Program Management and Monitoring operates in own silo

  14. What We Know Now That We Didn’t Know Then… • Organizational structure change inevitable • What we did…. Tried to make incremental change • What we should have done…. Slash and Burn • Staff must: • Have sense of urgency • Be open to change • Obtain new skill sets • Or GET OUT OF THE WAY!

  15. How We Needed to Change • MSD Manages Integrated Program • External Monitoring • Incentive based embedded staff • Business Case Evaluations • Project selection by Triple Bottom Line analysis • Separated Planning from Design/Construction • Where the rubber hits the road • Allows priority focus for Project Delivery

  16. MSD Organization in 2010

  18. Environmental Programs Concentration on Sustainable Watershed Management

  19. Current WWIP Profile Potential Sustainable Approach
