Taft Sewer Improvement Project

Taft Sewer Improvement Project

The proposed project involves replacement and relocation of a portion of the Taft Branch regional sewer in the City of Orange to address anticipated capacity issues during wet-weather events as identified in OC San’s 2019 Master Plan Update Report. Specifically, the project calls for the construction and operation of approximately 10,700 linear feet of OC San vitrified clay sewer pipelines and approximately 80 linear feet of City of Orange sewer pipeline. The project would connect to existing City of Orange sewer at the intersection of Meats Avenue and Santiago Boulevard and to existing OC San sewer at the intersection of Taft Avenue and Glassell Street. The project would abandon approximately 8,000 feet of existing OC San sewer pipeline including 1,200 linear feet of the existing pipeline along Meats Avenue at the State Route 55 crossing. The project would also abandon approximately 820 linear feet of existing City of Orange service laterals that would be reconnected as part of the project.
