The program includes about $900m in total program costs to be invested in the next 20 years to improve the city’s sanitary sewer collection and wastewater treatment system.
Under the contract, CH2M HILL will provide program services to implement the combined CWP master plan.
The services include program planning and administration, program controls, technical planning, engineering support, portal management, and construction support.
The City of San Mateo is presently finalizing the capital improvement program (CIP), with partners, stakeholders and regulatory agencies.
The master plan will help the city achieve its sustainability goals by optimizing wastewater treatment, biogas utilization, and conveyance infrastructure.
CH2M HILL vice president, program manager, and global service team leader of water resources & ecosystems management Jay Witherspoon said: "Implementing the combined CIP will require a tremendous effort in planning, coordination, standardization, and program controls.
"Our experience and technical knowledge in programs, planning, designing, constructing, starting-up, and commissioning wastewater collection systems and treatment plants will be beneficial to the success of this project."
