Key Takeaways Construction of Bois d'Arc Lake, a US$1.6 billion program in north Texas, required a strategic approach to quality control, quality assurance, field management, and inspection. Using a five‐package construction approach, the North Texas Municipal Water District has been able to break down the reservoir construction program into manageable projects. While the construction program has been largely successful, lessons learned include establishing quality assurance processes early and determining document control processes.
