Oregon Avenue Sewer Reconstruction Project Environmental Permitting and Compliance Services

EBA provided consulting services to support the installation of 4,300 linear feet of sanitary sewer line using micro-tunneling, hand mining, and open-cut methods. EBA’s services were related to groundwater discharge from the construction activities into the District of Columbia Municipal Separate Stormwater Sewer System (MS4).

Tasks included preparing permit applications and securing final permits, performing discharge monitoring, preparing monthly discharge monitoring reports, and serving as a liaison with the District of Columbia Department of Energy & Environment for compliance reporting. Discharge monitoring included sampling and analyzing groundwater at multiple discharge locations and verifying compliance with discharge limits for contaminants in accordance with MS4 permit requirements.

EBA also provided materials sampling and testing services. Specifically, EBA provided a certified testing technician to collect samples of concrete and soils during construction and tested the samples in EBA’s accredited laboratory.
