BACKGROUND:
The Water Utilities' 2021 capital improvement plan (CIP) includes rehabilitation of approximately 50 manholes, 17,053 linear feet of sanitary main/trunk sewers, and 150 sewer service laterals. The primary focus of these projects is to reduce the leakage of groundwater and surface water into the system. The sanitary sewer main lining program is part of the Water Utilities' IEPA required CMOM (capacity, management, operation and maintenance) plan and IEPA required ten-year infiltration and inflow reduction program under Naperville's NPDES permit IL0034061.

The upstream and downstream manhole structures of this siphon and the riser pipes will also be rehabilitated.
Sanitary sewer lining is a major component of the city's strategy to reduce system leaks associated with storm water infiltration through pipe cracks and fissures, which reduces sanitary system capacity during wet weather events. Lining the sewer provides seamless, leak-free pipes and maintains structural integrity for approximately 50 years. Reducing leaks and preserving system capacity also helps reduce the number and severity of sanitary sewer backups. The contractor will use no-dig lining technology to reduce cost and disruption to the community.
