Rapid sand filters at the Dalecarlia Water Treatment Plant as part of the Washington Aqueduct project in the District of Columbia, Jan. 8, 2016. By 1918, the maximum daily water consumption in the District of Columbia was in danger of exceeding the production capabilities at the McMillan Water Treatment Plant. As a result, Congress approved a plan to increase water production capacity through construction of a second treatment facility. Completed in 1928, the Dalecarlia Filter Plant provides an additional 80 million gallons of water production per day.
