Document Description
A segment of treated water pipeline in Alta, in the vicinity of Alta Bonnynook Road and Alta Powerhouse Road is in need of replacement. The 4-inch wrapped steel pipe which was constructed in 1941 is deteriorated and is experiencing water quality issues. Approximately 2,500-feet of new 8-inch ductile iron pipeline will be installed within the existing alignment and will include replacement of services and appurtenances. There would also be approximately 1,200-feet of new pipeline and pressure reducing station installed in Cable Road, which would connect and loop the distribution system. There will be minimal amount of ground disturbance and construction will be within a 20-foot corridor with staging areas. The area is thick with vegetation, tree trimming and possible tree removal will occur.
