Project engineer: $2M grant in hand, SCADA migration underway, Phase 1a spend at about $23M
Summary
Jeff Thompson said he is managing a $2,000,000 CDS grant administered by EPA Region 7, the agency is migrating to a standalone SCADA system, and Phase 1a construction spending is "about $23,000,000" with $7,500,000 budgeted for design and permitting for subsequent phases.
Jeff Thompson, the agency’s project engineer, summarized recent project-level work and funding. He said he has been managing the CDS grant process tied to a $2,000,000 allocation from Congressman Bacon's office that is being administered by EPA Region 7. Thompson also said the agency has begun implementing a freestanding SCADA system because the prior SCADA vendor notified the agency it would no longer support the platform.
Thompson reported the agency has spent "about $23,000,000 total" to complete Phase 1a construction and that the agency budgeted approximately $7,500,000 for design and permitting for Phase 1b and Phase 2. He noted these numbers while explaining how Phase 1b easement and right-of-way acquisitions tie into federal funding and ongoing design work.
