McMillan Stormwater Storage: Original Plan
 Use 2 existing sand
filters at McMillan site
Irving St
North Capitol
Tank & Diversion
Structure
(under
construction)
First St Tank &
Diversion
Structure
N. Capitol St.
 Up to 6 million gallons
storage
First St.
 Divert stormwater into
storage during major rain
events

Upstream Areas Tributary to First St. Tank
Served by Combined Sewers
 DC Water performed due diligence
investigations upstream as part of
detailed design and found:


Upstream area was not completely
separated
Low basements at Washington Hospital
Center would require special project to
protect from flooding
 Private campuses with private sewers
 DC Water’s maps do not show the
private sewers in these areas
Portion of
Soldiers’
Home
Nat’l
Rehabilitation
Hospital
Portion of
Wash. Hospital
Center
 Maps available at the time of the
Mayor’s Task Force showed the
upstream public sewers to be
Portion of
separated

Irving Street Green Infrastructure
Irving St
Construct Bioretention
(Green Infrastructure)
along Irving St
Michigan Ave
 Bioretention will be installed in
the public right of way (traffic
medians and road sides)
 Construction from November
2013 through spring 2014

Summary of Revised Plan
 Moved First St diversion structure south near Channing St

Connects to First Street Tunnel
 McMillan storage tank (Cell 15) on First Street side will not be used
 Bioretention (rain gardens) on Irving Street
 Benefits




Keeps combined sewage in the sewage
system where it belongs
Directs stormwater to bioretention for
treatment
Allows hospitals and Soldiers’ Home to
remain in service uninterrupted
Bioretention improves District as a
whole and serves as a model for green
infrastructure

First Street Tunnel

Pre-Construction Surveys
 Residents are asked to complete the Pre-construction Survey and
Neighborhood Mitigation Questionnaire that has been mailed.
 Pre-construction Surveys benefit the property owner by documenting the
condition of the property before the start of construction.
 By taking advantage of the survey, you will make the process easier, in the
unlikely event that a construction related damage claim needs to be filed.
 Without a pre-construction survey, DC Water will have no rational basis by
which to confirm if your damage claim was related to the First Street Tunnel
Project.

First Street Tunnel
 Utility Relocation
 Gas and electric utilities in specified locations throughout the
Bloomingdale neighborhood will be relocated in advance of tunnel
construction.
 Informational sheets with map will be hand delivered to residents within
the affected area by DC Water.
 Work will begin in late September / early October. Having local gas and
electric services relocated before construction keeps project on
schedule.
