Report

Summary

The purpose of this project is to conduct a condition assessment on a portion of cured-in-place plastic-lined (CIPP) concrete interceptor sewer system. The CIPP-lined sewer system is approximately 12.5 miles in length, of which 6.6 miles of existing sewer will be assessed. The system ranges in pipe diameter from 16 to 60 inches. In addition to the sewer infrastructure assessment, there is a need for approximately 50 miles of sewer segments and manholes, not previously assessed in other programs, to be included as these assets were inadvertently missed or the project was under funded to complete.

 

Brown and Caldwell, Inc.'s services include, but are not limited to: reviewing past assessments, as-builts, any available records of rehabilitation, any other pertinent documents, and records, conducive to the assessment; inspect manholes and structures on the interceptor; inspect the pipe interior of the interceptor utilizing remote video inspection equipment; and present the final executive summaries.
