Soltesz holds a Design Services Task Order Contract with PEPCO Holdings, Inc. Soltesz is currently working on a number of task orders for this transmission civil engineering design service blanket contract, which encompasses Montgomery County, MD, Prince George’s County, MD, and Washington, DC.
Soltesz has provided design services for over 10,000 linear feet of 69 kV underground transmission lines; stormwater management concept plans, site plans, forest conservation plans, utility plans, and associated permitting for new substations; feasibility studies for proposed substations; and access roads.

Among the task orders assigned to Soltesz include underground transmission design, substation concept plans, substation feasibilities studies, and design and approvals for maintenance access roads. Within those task orders, Soltesz has performed alternative route analysis, surveying, sediment and erosion control plans, roadside tree permits, utility plans, landscaping and lighting plans, stormwater management design, ESD, entitlement and zoning research, permitting efforts, budget cost estimates, and as-built information.
