2019 Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation - Bid Award
History
The Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (MWRD) governs the village’s sanitary sewer system. The MWRD requires sanitary sewer systems that discharge into MWRD facilities to implement measures to reduce excessive Infiltration and Inflow (I&I) from entering MWRD’s system.
