Document Description
The project includes restoration of a segment of water main that was determined to be leaking in December 2019, and that is one of two conveyances of potable water to a portion of South Coast Water District's service area. The project involves replacement of 440 linear feet (If) of 10-inch-diameter asbestos-cement (AC) pipe enclosed in a 16-inch-diameter steel casing running within the bridge over Interstate 5 at Via California. The existing AC pipe would be replaced with 10-inch-diameter polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe and installed within the existing steel casing. The replacement PVC water line would have the same capacity and connection points as the removed AC water line. The project-related actions would occur adjacent to and immediately beyond each end of the Via California overpass, using jack and bore construction methods.
