Between July 1933 and March 1939 the PWA funded and administered the construction of more than 34,000 projects including airports, large electricity-generating dams, major warships for the Navy, and bridges, as well as 70% of the new schools and one-third of the hospitals built between 1933-1939.
The PWA had its own administrative staff but all construction work was done by private contractors, who were urged--but not required--to hire the unemployed.
Some of the most famous PWA projects are the Triborough Bridge and the Lincoln Tunnel in New York City, the Grand Coulee Dam in Washington, and the Key West Highway in Florida.The PWA also electrified the Pennsylvania Railroad between New York and Washington, DC.
"PWA" is a common misspelling or typo for: paw, pawl, pawn.
The Ministry of Interior, which oversees the PWA, and the Ministry of Finance have a consultant studying the privatization of the water sector nationwide.
Under current master plans, the PWA has been increasing provincial water supplies by 12 percent a year; however, demand is expected to grow by 20 percent per year in the next several years.
