Document Description
The Project proposes modifications to four structures along the West Valley Feeder No. 1 (WVF1) pipeline alignment, and construction of a new access road and vehicle turn around areas within Chatsworth Park South. Pipeline structure modifications include relocating valve enclosures, installing bollards around structures to protect them from vehicles, enlarging existing access manholes and installing street-type lids, and replacing valve piping and fittings within existing structures. Proposed access road work includes construction of a new access road, two vehicle turnaround areas, and access gate to accommodate a full-size maintenance truck. The new road would provide access to two existing pipeline structures, with vehicle turnaround areas located immediately adjacent to those structures. Retaining walls and v-ditches would be constructed along portions of the access road to protect the new road from erosion, as well as a culvert crossing. The proposed access road would be approximately 14 feet wide and 600 feet in length. Construction staging and storage would occur at two locations within Chatsworth Park South. Operations and maintenance work including frequency of staff visits, maintenance, and shutdowns, would be similar to existing conditions following construction.
