Purpose & Explanation
Sanitary Sewer System Improvements
The project will include sanitary sewer mainline and lateral improvements to the Division Street sanitary sewer line (College Street to N. Oviatt Street). As part of the project design the City is also investigating a private lateral system found behind several homes along the east end of Division Street, near N. Oviatt Street. A sanitary sewer upgrade to improve upon this privately-owned, shared lateral system may need to be incorporated into the project after the sewer investigation is completed. The City is currently investigating this issue.
Water Main System Improvements
The project will also replace the existing, 100-year-old, 6" diameter water main in Division Street with a new 8" diameter waterline from College Street to N. Oviatt Street, including replacement at the intersections. This section of waterline has had eight breaks since 2005 and continues to be a maintenance issue for the City Public Works Department. In 2011, Public Works replaced a portion of waterline under the existing 3' x 5' storm sewer box culvert. Besides reducing maintenance and interruptions to the residents, the new water line will improve fire flows in this area. Total length of new 8" water main to be installed is approximately 880 feet.
