Hi all -- Attached is a little light reading.  In response to a FOIA request that I submitted last year, DC Water just produced the First Street Tunnel contract with Skanska.  We might be able to learn more about the project, as well as the special requirements in place for the protection of neighbors (which DC Water keeps saying are in the contract, but we haven't seen).
                                                                                                                             
I haven't reviewed this yet, but wanted to get it out to everyone.  Please note that our "Bloomingdale Concerned Citizens" group helped with this.  DC Water waived the usual copying fees in the public interest because of the existence of this group. 
                                                       
So thanks to everyone who has been involved!
