U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has awarded an $85-million contract to a Black & Veatch-Stantec joint venture to advance the Brandon Road Interbasin Project, a key effort to keep the invasive fish species out of the Great Lakes. Work will support design of a layered system of engineered barriers and deterrent technologies at the Brandon Road Lock and Dam.
Black & Veatch plans a new $500-million global headquarters in Overland Park, Kansas and a surrounding mixed-use district that would be developed over 10 years.
The innovative engineer made a global impact, guiding the design of more than 100 biological nutrient removal facilities worldwide, including projects on five continents.
Located 40 miles off Cameron Parish, La., plant would have four trains and be the first such offshore facility in the U.S., set to produce up to 13.2 million metric tons of LNG annually, developer said.
Back in 2013, the California Coastal Commission denied the permit for Morro Bay’s then 60-year-old wastewater treatment plant, directing the city to relocate the facility to a more inland area consistent with the Coastal Act policies.
Black & Veatch completed early stage design this year on one developer's project to build a first phase 240,000-ton-per-year green hydrogen plant in Nova Scotia, and is set for more work on a larger facility planned in Newfoundland.
