4 Applications to Use Alternative Public Works

The State of Washington's Project Review Committee will meet on July 22, 2010 to consider applications for approval from three public agencies to use either Design-Build or General Contractor/Construction Manager (GC/CM) for the following four public works projects.  The links below will take you to the application submitted to the Project Review Committee.

• City of Bellingham: GC/CM for Post Point Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvements ($47.2 million)

• City of Everett: Design-Build for new Everett Municipal Court Building ($6 million)

• City of Everett: GC/CM for Water Pollution Control Facility, Phase C Expansion ($73 million)

• Sound Transit: Design-Build for South 200th Light Rail System Extension Project ($302.2 million)

The Project Review Committee will also consider the application from the University of Washington for renewal of their certification as an experienced public owner to use GC/CM for another three years without having to seek project specific approval.

Alternative public works contracting in the State of Washington is authorized in chapter 39.10 RCW.
