A Jacobs and PCL Construction joint venture has been awarded a design-build contract for the $1bn Southeast Treatment Plant nutrient reduction project in San Francisco.

The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) commissioned the project to improve discharge from the plant into San Francisco Bay.

The city’s largest treatment facility, the plant treats 80% of the city’s wastewater and must meet operational, regulatory and environmental regulations.

Jacobs says it will work with local businesses and residents and invest in community health, education, workforce training and development initiatives as part of the SFPUC’s Social Impact Partnership.

Tom Meinhart, Jacobs’ executive vice president, said: “Jacobs brings decades of experience delivering critical wastewater infrastructure projects for the SFPUC, including upgrades at the Southeast Treatment Plant.”
