Standard Construction Specs
These standard construction specifications apply to all sewer and channel facility construction projects intended to be dedicated to MSD for maintenance. For MSD contracted projects, the project specifications shall take precedence over these standard specifications.
Contractors performing work under these standard specifications are advised that they may be working on private property for which MSD has obtained easements or rights-of-way from the owners. Therefore, it is essential that both the contractor and MSD make every effort to cause minimal inconvenience to the public and minimal damage to the property. The contractor and MSD shall restore the areas of construction as quickly as possible to a condition equal to or better than it was prior to construction.
