How much will the sewer overflow program cost?
Under the Global Consent Decree, an agreement we developed with federal and state regulatory agencies, MSD is required to implement the program to address overflow problems by February 2022, unless the cost is expected to exceed $1.5 billion. If final costs are greater than that, we will have additional time to complete the necessary projects. The final cost will depend on the solutions we select and how far they go to reduce sewer overflows.
