Document Description
Distribution mains, services and valves serving a portion of the community of Bloomington are located within the rear alleyways of the homes. Over the course of many decades, fences, buildings, and other structures have been constructed within these alleyways limiting West Valley Water District's ability to read meters, locate shut off valves and perform regular and emergency maintenance. The Bloomington Alleyway Main Replacement Project includes the installation of 3.15 miles of 8-in and 12-in distribution lines constructed within previously disturbed street ROW adjacent to other utilities. The project also includes the relocation of 418 customer services from the backyard alleyways to the front of the property, 60 fire hydrants and 0.76 miles of 24-in transmission main.
