BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
N/A
BACKGROUND:
The Water Utilities issued Bid 19-059 seeking a contractor to rehabilitate thirty-five (35) existing sanitary sewer manholes, most of which are old brick or concrete block manholes. The bid specifications require the installation of a non-cementitious coating to all interior surfaces including channel, bench, barrel, cone and chimney sections of the manhole.
This no-dig process creates a manhole liner that will seal out stormwater induced infiltration and ground water inflow.
The Sanitary Sewer Manhole Rehabilitation program began in 2000. Over the past 18 years, the coating product has withstood winter freeze-thaw cycles without cracking. Water Utilities has rehabilitated 1,381 manholes successfully and plans to continue this annual program. The majority of manholes included in this contract are located north of the Burlington Northern railroad tracks, south of Ogden Avenue and east of Washington Street.
Naperville's proactive approach to combating Infiltration & Inflow (I&I) into the sanitary sewer system has yielded positive results. Since 1998 the population of Naperville has increased by roughly 30,000 people, or about 20%. However, the average amount of water treated at the Springbrook Water Reclamation Center has decreased by roughly 18% over the same period.
