The City of Savannah Water & Sewer Planning & Engineering (WSPE) Department, in cooperation with the Water Conveyance & Distribution Department, has updated the City of Savannah Standard Specifications and Details for water and sewer. The revised documents are dated September 2013, and may be accessed from the City website homepage by selecting the “Development” tab at the top of the page, and following the drop-down menus for “Engineering & Design”, “Design Guidance”, and “Standard Construction Details” or “Specifications”.

While some revisions to these documents simply make them current with existing design and construction procedures, some of the content is new. Thus, WSPE is encouraging interested parties, (Engineers, Utility Contractors, etc.) to review the revised documents and familiarize themselves with the revised procedures.
