MSWD Crews at work

The Developer/Contractor Handbook and Guidelines for Design and Construction of Water and Sewer Facilities provide comprehensive procedural and technical requirements for the planning, design, and construction of MSWD service infrastructure required for new development. The District developed this manual to guide developers and their engineers through the process of design and construction of new water and sewer facilities. The staff has included information pertinent to residential tract development, multi-family residential developments, and industrial and commercial developments.
