Document Description
This site is located on a steep hillside approximately 150' above the Ventura River. At this location the pipeline changes from a 16-inch diameter to a 14-inch diameter pipeline. It is also the location where a 1.25" siphon drip is inserted in the pipeline and travels inside the pipeline for a distance of 102'. It will require cutting the pipeline and removing the siphon drip. Records indicate the pipeline is approximately 10 foot deep at the location of the siphon drip. The disturbance of the surface area at the location of the diameter change will be approximately 70 ft. x 40 ft. The disturbance of the surface area at the location of the siphon drip will be approximately 60' x 60'. These two excavations will be of close enough proximity to each other that the excavations will likely join. All soil and debris will be hauled and stored off-site. The construction equipment will consist of a track backhoe, boom truck, rubber tire loader, grader, two welding trucks, flat bed trucks, tow able compressor, and 3 pickups. Duration of the construction activity will be approximately one month.
