The City of Lloydminster faced a mandate from the federal
government to upgrade its Wastewater Treatment Facility or face legal
consequences. ISL was brought on as the Owner’s Engineer to provide
water, wastewater engineering and project management services.
Utilizing Integrated Project Delivery and extensive Building
Information Modelling, ISL and the project team were able to
optimize design and streamline construction. The upgraded facility
significantly improved the quality of treated effluent entering the
North Saskatchewan River, ensuring compliance with the Federal
Wastewater Systems Effluent Regulations and protecting downstream
communities. The project was completed two weeks ahead of schedule
and $1.5 million under budget.
JUDGES’ COMMENTS
The project was delivered ahead of schedule, under budget
and during a period of immense uncertainty and turmoil. The
project team demonstrated tremendous agility, innovation
and focus on client value.
