The Ohio Creek Watershed project in Norfolk, Va., is protecting a low-lying portion of the state’s coast.

NIST’s 1960s-era radiation physics laboratory has been augmented with a four-story, 75,000-sq-ft wing containing nearly 40 specialized and purpose-built laboratory modules with 2,500 sq ft of Class 10,000 clean room space.

The $92-million, eight-year project used cutting-edge wastewater treatment technology and facilities within a constrained footprint, all while maintaining plant operations within strict discharge quality standards throughout construction. 

After a sudden rockfall injured several motorists, the university wanted to alleviate any immediate danger and prevent a reoccurrence.

The five-story, 19,598-sq-ft facility is a spiritual home where all students can gather.

Given the project’s location in an existing senior housing community, the team safeguarded residents particularly vulnerable to COVID-19 as well as its own staff.

The iconic 1970s-era building has been transformed into a community resource.
