Document Description
SWID proposes to install a new water conveyance pipe in the Kern County road right of-way (ROW) on the north side of Merced Avenue and the west side of Leonard Avenue. The new Leonard Avenue pipeline will begin at the intersection of Magnolia
Avenue and Merced Avenue, where it will connect to an existing SWID lateral. The pipeline will also connect to four existing SWID turnouts: one near the corner of Merced Avenue and Magnolia Avenue and three near the corner of Merced Avenue and Western Avenue. Additionally, a one-half mile section of existing, obsolete concrete pipe along the south side of Merced Avenue, between Magnolia Avenue and Western Avenue, will be capped and abandoned in place.
