2015 - Sacramento Design & Procedures Manual (DPM) Sections 9, 11 & 13

Update Department of Utility Sections of the City Design & Procedures Manual

MRPE authored Sections 9, 11 & 13 of the City of Sacramento Design & Procedures Manual, which define the requirements for design and master planning of public sewer, combined sewer, stormwater, and potable water improvements. MRPE met with City staff and others dozens of times over seven years, researched County and other local manuals, managed, tabulated and resolved related issues, and wrote these DPM Sections which guide developers in the preparation of plans and studies for public drainage, water and sewer improvements. 

Codifying decades of engineering practices into clear, enforceable standards while aligning with evolving City infrastructure policies and balancing technical detail with usability for diverse stakeholders. Matt’s extensive experience in Sacramento made MRPE the obvious choice to bring together the city’s history with varied public and private interests in updating these 30-year-old sections. We helped to create a new vision for City utility master planning and design based on how things were actually being done and how they should be.
