The potable water main will consist of approximately 1,530 LF of 16-inch and 1,075 LF of 8-inch PVC water main constructed to Toho Water Authoritys standards. The potable water main includes the associated valves, hydrants, and fittings, and will connect to a 16-inch stub-out from Toho Shores Drive on the north and terminate with a stub-out for future connection on the south. Additionally, several connections for future development are included along the length of the proposed roadway. The reuse main will consist of approximately 1,530 LF of 12-inch and 613 LF of 6-inch PVC reuse main constructed to Toho Water Authoritys standards.
