Nossaman
Elizabeth Cousins joined Nossaman in early 2014 after a highly regarded legal career in Melbourne, Australia. She has extensive experience on complex and cutting-edge transactions in an array of infrastructure sectors including road, rail, health, justice, and particularly water – where she currently serves as lead on a number of cutting edge infrastructure projects throughout California. In 2020, she reached a significant milestone as the lead on the East County Advanced Water Purification (ECAWP) project which will develop four progressive-design-build/transitional operations packages to provide East San Diego County with a new, safe, sustainable and drought-proof water supply. In October of 2020, the ECAWP Joint Powers Authority Board awarded the first phase of two progressive design-build agreements. The roughly $700 million project will implement a potable reuse program to create a new drinking water supply for East San Diego County, and is a closely watched project in the water industry.
