Abstract:

In a public-private partnership that required close working relationships, a project that aimed to restore an old canal system� and its waterfront�in Richmond was combined with an effort to create a combined sewer overflow (CSO) system. The project calls for the CSO pipeline to lie just below the canal, saving time and money on both projects. The combined effort called for several modifications in the canal designs to accommodate the CSO system, but the result is a new water park running through the city's center that is expected to spark an urban renewal.
