Document Description
The purpose of the Project is to repair exposed active pipelines and cover them once repairs are completed. The goal is to protect them from future failure. Project work includes excavation and exposure of two adjacent pipeline segments. The pipelines will be examined and repaired, if necessary, then the excavation backfilled for pipeline protection. Permanent impacts to an unnamed wash will be required including 0.05 acres (336 cubic yards [CY]) of revetment mat and 0.04 acres (235 CY) of riprap material. A total of 770 CY of soil will be excavated and replaced onsite with the potential of an additional 100 CY of imported soil being brought onto the site. Beneficiaries of the Project include the general public and the environment, who will benefit from not experiencing pipeline failure.
