QUICK FACTS

• About 1.5 miles of 6, 8 and 10-inch diameter sewer pipes are being rehabilitated, or removed and replaced.
• One existing maintenance hole is being repaired.
• Construction period: October 2007 through October 2008. Weather or other circumstances could shift the work schedule. Neighbors will be informed as conditions warrant.
• Construction is generally taking place Monday through Friday, from 7:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m., and on major streets from 9:00 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. to minimize traffic impacts.
• Estimated Cost: $900,000.
• Construction methods include sewer pipe lining (rehabilitates defective sewers without excavation and surface disruption), and sewer pipe removal and replacement (performed by “open cut” or trenching, a method that is typically used where sewers are shallow).
• In order to minimize disruption on your street, most of the construction work at each location is being completed in about 5-10 business days.
• Trucks and other equipment such as pipes are being used during construction, and you may see open trench excavation and debris removal.
• Dust control is being provided in all project areas.
• Enclosures or other barriers is being used in construction areas wherever necessary for public safety.
• Flaggers are being used where traffic is impacted. Traffic will be restored to normal when construction has been completed at the end of each workday.
• Trash pickup, deliveries, access to businesses and residential driveways is being maintained.
• Parking may be temporarily restricted in some areas, and signs will be posted in advance telling you where and when.

• You will be notified 24-48 hours in advance whenever sewer services may be temporarily interrupted.
