Potable and Non-Potable Water, Sewer Pipeline Project Begins

Construction is set to begin on a $3.2 million project to install potable, non-potable and sewer pipeline in various areas of Redlands. On April 21, the Redlands City Council awarded a contract for construction of the 2014 CIP Water, Non-Potable & Sewer Pipeline Project to MCC Pipeline, Inc. of Yucaipa, in the amount of $3,239,037.52. Construction is anticipated to occur through December in various locations throughout the city. No general fund dollars will be used to construct this project. The project will install 17,785 linear feet of potable and non-potable water pipeline, 408 linear feet of sewer pipeline, and 1,284 linear feet of cured-in-place-pipe (CIPP) for sewer lining in various locations throughout the city. Potable water is of drinking quality and non-potable water is water which is not of drinking quality. Water service will be interrupted for up to a full day in each area during installation of potable water lines. Residents and businesses will receive 48 hours notification in advance of any water service interruption. The project was designed and will be managed by the City’s Municipal Utilities and Engineering Department. The City will make a concerted effort to minimize disruptions for citizens and businesses in the project area. “No Parking” signs will be posted on streets indicating the dates when work will be occurring and when parking will not be permitted between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Access to properties will be made available at all times. During construction, water pipelines will be flushed through fire hydrants at a high velocity to ensure water quality in the distribution system. The Clean Water Act and the State Water Resources Control Board require flushing as part of the replacement of water pipelines conveying drinking water. Flushed water is captured in the City storm drain system and recharged for future use. A map of the project area is available online at www.cityofredlands.org/waterprojects.
