Pesavento Drive Rehabilitation Project
Community Involved: Bridgeville Borough
Project goal: To utilize complex engineering methodologies to focus only on necessary repairs and replacement of a sewer line that contributes to wet weather overflows and basement backups.
Project Summary: Locate and eliminate
the sources of inflow and infiltration in this McLaughlin Run
sub-watershed. Video inspection of the main lines and laterals
and flow monitoring will be conducted before and after construction
to document the reductions. Lining the sewer pipes was determined
to be the most cost-effective method of rehabilitation, particularly
considering the steep sloper in the project area. In addition
to almost 5,000 feet of lining, a limited amount of open-cut repair
will be performed, removal of protruding taps, as well as two
new manholes and root removal, as required.
Total Cost: $265,807
3 Rivers Wet Weather Grant Award: $146,194
Start Date: Fall 2002
Completion Date: April 2006
Project Progress: Project complete.
