Site work for a water / sewer project in Ketchikan, Alaska. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

Evergreen Avenue's 548-feet of water main between Hill and Tower Roads was installed in two segments; the first 281- feet of 6-inch cast-iron was installed in 1970 followed by the final 267-feet in ductile-iron in 1976. The cast-iron portion has been particularly troublesome with several failures. The entire 548-foot segment is overdue for both water and sewer replacement with non-corrodible plastic pipe. There is no present funding available for its replacement but if there were, it would be designed in 2024 along with other utility improvement projects contributing to the combined design contract. Should Municipal Assistance Funding ever become available again, this would be a likely project that is already designed and has received ADEC approval for maximum points. It would also require voter approval to enter into loan agreements for the remainder of the funding. If granted, construction could begin in 2027 This project is in included in the City of Ketchikan FY 2023 - 2027 CIP. As of February 27, 2023, further details regarding design and construction have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
