Site work for a water / sewer project in San Luis Obispo, California. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

Replacement of wastewater collection pipes, and related infrastructure is an ongoing program for a reliable sanitary sewer collection system. The program`s inflow and infiltration program will conduct pipe integrity tests, video inspections of public sewers, smoke testing of service areas, and schedule point repairs to address existing deficiencies according to priority. The objective of the project is to explore opportunities to consolidate sewer collection systems that may run parallel along roadways and construct new sewer lateral interconnections that can simplify maintenance operations, reduce illegal stormwater connections into the sewer, and rehabilitate fractures in clay pipes that may be experiencing groundwater infiltration due to soil settlements or root instructions. A decrease of infiltration flows will result in lower energy costs needed to treat sewer volumes at the wastewater treatment plant. The project efforts may include sewer lateral rebates, engineering reports, construction plans for point repairs, construction management services, sewer manhole re-coatings, sewer flow monitoring studies, and field testing of wastewater piping infrastructure. This project is included in the City of San Luis Obispo's FY 2023-2028 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
