UPDATE 6/3

The service date for this project is approaching, see below for summary of updates. Check out the Project Page

This area was selected for water main pipeline rehabilitation, primarily because of the history of water main breaks. Construction is proposed to begin in June and be completed by September.  There will not be any special assessments associated with this water main rehabilitation.

Structural cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining 

This method:

  • allows for a new pipe to be constructed inside of the existing deteriorated pipe
  • minimal excavation in the street
  • meets the physical strength properties of a new pipe

During construction:

  • the existing water main must be taken out of service
  • Affected customers will be provided water service through an above-ground, temporary drinking water system.
  • Driveway and roadway crossings of the bypass system will be ramped or buried to maintain vehicular access and traffic flow during construction.
  • While being served on the bypass system, affected properties could have their existing water meter removed and then reinstalled once the rehabilitation is complete.
    • Any such meter work will require the contractor to make appointments for entering a property/home
    • More detailed information regarding the temporary water system and associated water meter work will be distributed closer to the start of construction activity.
  • Street parking within these areas will be prohibited during the project, and there will be short-term, off-peak closures to through traffic.

After Construction:

  • Water Utility staff will survey outside hose connections after houses are restored to the lined water main.
    • These surveys will be used to confirm that proper backflow protection is in place.

BEST PRACTICES DURING CONSTRUCTION

Fer Pal Construction recommends that any water treatment systems (softeners, filters, etc.) or water-cooled air conditioners be temporarily disconnected while being served on the bypass water system, as there is a chance that they may not properly function while on the bypass.

Automatic lawn sprinkler systems may not operate properly while the work is taking place, so manual watering may be necessary.

METER REMOVALS

A scheduled appointment for access to the water meter will be required to facilitate the installation process of the new cured-in-place line.

You will receive a notice from Fer Pal Construction, either in-person or by a door-hanger, to schedule the meter removal appointment once the bypass water system has been sampled, tested & approved.

This appointment takes approximately 15 minutes to complete, and in order to help expedite completion we ask that you clear the area around your meter to ensure ease of access and removal.

PROPER IDENTIFICATION

Madison Water Utility employees will be wearing identification badges displaying the Madison Water Utility logo, and Fer Pal Construction employees will be wearing identification badges displaying their company logo. Logo examples are shown below; please be sure that you see one of these identification badges before allowing entrance to your home.
