The Standard Construction for Sewer and Drainage Facilities specifications are occasionally reviewed to ensure compliance with current construction practices. During this review the specifications are revised to incorporate changes in
materials, types of allowable construction, clarify methods of payment and new legal requirements and to incorporate technical specifications which have become standard since the last revision. This concludes over a year long process of
reviews by both MSD staff and outside stakeholders and the coordination of suggested modifications. Upon completion of this review process the proposed revisions were posted for public comment which resulted in no significant comments being made. This is the ninth revision since the Specifications were developed.
