CIP Water Projects

Maintenance and improvements to existing water and sewer systems are major priorities with Baltimore City, and significant funds are allocated in the annual Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to address ongoing issues such as water distribution system improvements to repair or replace old, broken or damaged appurtenances; the capital sewer maintenance program; sewer replacement projects; small sewer extensions; and corrections to infiltration and inflow of storm water into sanitary sewers. Much of this work will directly impact streams and waterways throughout the City, so the City’s Planning Department staff, working with Department of Public Works (DPW) staff, recommends that all sewer work and stream restoration be closely coordinated. To the extent possible, stream restoration should be a component of any contract involving substantial sewer line work that affects any stream in need of restoration.
